my kids enjoyed our stay at Manila Ocean Park, its just that on food stalls on 2nd floor (singapore ???) they do not have service water and you are forced to buy bottled water, bottled tea or canned soda which are very overpriced (120php) and since outside foods or drinks are not allowed, you will get thirsty if you do not buy bottled drinks.

We love our Intramuros passports. It's a wonderful souvenir! The print and illustrations are beautiful. There's even a stamping feature like a real passport. The lady at the ticket booth was very kind and accommodating because she encouraged us to do the stamping ourselves for the building images. Just the process of redeeming the passport and using it at every location was already enjoyable. #achievements 😌

Booked the Viva Old Manila Walking Tour through Klook and had a great experience. Our guide, Russell, was incredibly knowledgeable and informative, sharing fascinating stories and historical insights throughout the tour. We visited 8 stops around Intramuros, and each location came with its own unique history and significance. What I appreciated most was how Russell connected the stories to present-day Manila, making the tour both engaging and educational. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Manila and wanting to gain a deeper understanding of the city's rich history and culture.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had such a wonderful experience at the Digital National Art Museum! The immersive digital displays were absolutely mesmerising and beautifully done. Every room had something unique to explore, making it enjoyable from start to finish. What made the visit even more special was seeing our 16-month-old daughter completely captivated by the lights, colours, and moving projections. She had just as much fun as we adults did, happily walking around and taking everything in. It was a fantastic family-friendly experience that kept all ages entertained. The venue was well-organised, clean, and the staff were friendly. If you’re visiting Manila, I highly recommend adding this to your itinerary. Whether you’re an art lover or simply looking for a unique family activity, this place is definitely worth a visit! ✨🎨💜

We left at 5:00 AM and arrived in Tagaytay at 6:45 AM. It was a pleasant ride all the way. We visited People’s Park in the Sky, Tagaytay Picnic Grove, Museo Orlina, Sunflower Farmville, The Gingerbread House, Twin Lakes, and Sky Ranch. For lunch, we went to Balay Dako. We finished by 3:30 PM as we didn’t intend to spend the entire day there. I would definitely recommend.
