The Manila Intramuros Historical Express tour provided a unique and eco-friendly way to explore the heart of Manila's rich history. Riding on bamboo bikes, participants enjoyed an intimate, up-close experience of Intramuros, the centuries-old walled city that survived the Spanish colonial era, the American period, and the battles of World War II. The knowledgeable guides, well-versed in the history of Intramuros, delivered engaging narratives and interesting anecdotes. In just 90 minutes, the tour covered major historical landmarks, including Fort Santiago, San Agustin Church, and Casa Manila, offering scenic views of the old city walls, plazas, and colonial architecture. Despite the short duration, it felt comprehensive and fulfilling, making it an excellent choice for those visiting Manila.

Fantastic tour with terrific guide!

The day of the trip was sunny, but because I went to Manila the last minute, then decided to go on a tour that will only take me a day, I don't have enough gear with me. Still the sun was manageable without a cap, but I would recommend it since you will be touring on a bike during the day. The guides are very kind and considerate, also the fact that they shower you much historical facts. A bit of a story, in my case, it's been years since I've ridden a bike, but I was able to keep my biking skill until before our last stop at St. Agustin's church haha. At that point, a guide offered to take me to the last stop on his bike while I leave my bike behind (they'll fetch it later). So I hope you are confident in your biking skills to do this tour, because it's a great tour around Intramuros, and the views and historical context is amazing!

The guide was great! He was very thorough in discussing relevant information about the sites, making the experience very enriching. The bike ride was very safe, and the guides were very helpful. Well organized, and a must-try experience. Highly recommended!
