This is a great itinerary. Ivan ’s commentary is kind and vivid and clear. Let ’s quickly walk into the history of Spain. Parents also love this guided itinerary. However, it is a bit difficult to find people in the square at first, it is recommended to bring a brand so that it is more convenient to find.
Took my foreign colleagues visiting Manila for the first time to Intramuros! I did a lot of research and felt this tour operator was the best-reviewed. Definitely worth the trip!
I booked this activity for my friends who were first time visitors in Manila. They loved it!
It was a great walking tour. Very informative. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and is very open to questions. Loved the view from above the choir loft of the Manila cathedral.
Our Tour Guide Anson is great he told us the history of Intramuros and the places we went to had a blast.
Booked this for my relatives from the US and they were very impressed with the guide’s (Anson) knowledge of the area.
We arrived 30 mins. before the scheduled interactive walk in Intramuros. Ivan, our tour guide also arrived on time. The weather is lovely the same as the lovely, rich culture and history of Manila, Philippines. Our family from London enjoyed it and learnt a lot.
Thanks Ivan. Lovely walk around the old town. Learnt lots and enjoyed the tour x
Very convenient. The guide is very informative and friendly.
The leader is an Indonesian overseas Chinese. Chinese is very good. I also have the patience to introduce the English first and then introduce it to my Taiwanese Chinese!
