Да живее стара Манила! : Пешеходна обиколка на Интрамурос

Големи благодарности на нашия невероятен екскурзовод, Седи. Той беше изключително отзивчив. Координираше с нас през WhatsApp и ни позволи да променим датата, а самата обиколка си струваше всяка стотинка. Седи е изключително търпелив, приятелски настроен и много информативен. Той носеше таблет, за да ни покаже исторически снимки и въздушни изгледи как е изглеждала зоната през 30-те години на миналия век, което наистина оживи историята на Форт Сантяго и Интрамурос. Имахме възможност да разгледаме красиви забележителности, включително историческите порти на Форт Сантяго и зашеметяващата катедрала в Манила. Той също така се погрижи да бъдем добре обгрижени по време на цялата разходка. Ако посещавате Манила, тази пешеходна обиколка е абсолютно задължителна.

Резервирах пешеходната обиколка „Viva Old Manila“ през Klook и преживяването беше страхотно. Нашият гид, Ръсел, беше изключително осведомен и информативен, споделяйки завладяващи истории и исторически прозрения по време на цялата обиколка. Посетихме 8 спирки около Интрамурос и всяко място имаше своя уникална история и значение. Това, което най-много оцених, беше как Ръсел свърза историите с днешна Манила, правейки обиколката едновременно увлекателна и образователна. Силно препоръчително за всеки, който посещава Манила и иска да придобие по-дълбоко разбиране за богатата история и култура на града.

A collective insight from our group: Had a wonderful and informative tour despite the heat. Shout out to Russell - thank you so much for the amazing tour today! Your depth of knowledge is incredible, and I loved how you connected the timeline for us. I especially appreciated your focus on the cultural sanctity of the sites; it added a layer of depth I wasn't expecting. Thanks for a memorable experience.

I can 100% recommend this tour. We learnt so much about the history of Manila. Our guide Russell was awesome.... Welcoming, knowledgeable and presented at a great pace. group size: 8 guide: Russell

I am a Filipina who’s been relatively good in her history class but this tour still gave me information I didn’t learn in school. Highly suggested even to locals. Steven was our tourguide and he’s really good :) he kept the discussion very interesting. Overall, nice tour.

The tour was very worth it! We did it under a scorching heat but it was bearable because Russell ( the tour guide) was so amazing and knowledgeable. as a Filipino, it was really good to be re-educated about PH history and as for my non- Filipino partner, he appreciated knowing more about my roots and especially knowing bits and pieces of what happened in the past. Kuddos to Russell! Galing!

Had such a great experience joining the Intramuros Walking Tour with *Russel* as our tour leader! He’s very friendly, kind, and easy to talk to, making the whole walk enjoyable from start to finish. Russel explained everything in a clear and detailed way. you can really tell he’s passionate and knowledgeable about Philippine history. He brought the old stories of Intramuros to life through interesting facts, humor, and local insights that made the tour not only educational but also memorable. Highly recommend joining the tour with him if you want to learn, laugh, and truly feel the history of Manila. Thank you, Russel, for such a meaningful and fun morning! 🙏 - Livia , Indonesia -

I booked a walking tour for my next written project, I'm writing a story, and para na rin sa historical knowledge while I'm doing my study. Gusto kong part bago mag sulat talaga yung location studies hahahaha. And during this tour I felt like a student again attending field trips. Na-miss ko 'yon. How I took those trips for granted. Mabait and sobrang knowledgeable din nung guide namin. Our group had 10 people, which was perfect, and all of us were catered naman. Halos kapitbahay ko lang din siya rito sa Tondo hahaha. It was a fun experience. I enjoyed this tour so much! It was worth the price especially for wanderlusts. Thank you so much Let's Go Intramuros for letting me take part in rediscovering a rich rich part of Manila history.
