Our guide was very good and friendly. We could easily understand her English. The excursion to Intramuros and to the museum was interesting.

Manila was a port on our cruise itinerary that we probably were unsure of but this half day tour with Don’t Skip Manila certainly changed our minds and it became our favourite port of call.
The tour takes in most of the same things a cruise ship tour will but with a locals insight, Ann our guide was an enthusiastic advocate for Manila. It’s mainly a walking tour with a short drive to the start point and back to the ship but the pace is relaxed and we got to see way more than the ships tour who we saw being regularly hearded on and off of coaches and rushed around attractions.
Anna’s enthusiasm was infectious and we learned so much about the history of Manila and the Philippines under different rulers and the love they have for Jose Rizal, we were also able to visit Casa Manila which was a fascinating insight into the way people lived in Manila years ago.
Don’t miss Manila and certainly don’t miss this tour!
