An unforgettable journey through history – thanks to Mari! - I had an incredible time on this Intramuros tour, and I owe much of that to our amazing guide, Mari. She wasn’t just knowledgeable she made history come alive. Her storytelling was clear, engaging, and filled with passion. She managed to take the deep, complex history of the Philippines from its colonial past to the harrowing Battle of Manila and present it in a way that was easy to follow yet deeply moving. The tour itinerary was well-planned, covering must-see sites like Fort Santiago, the Manila Cathedral, and the Dr. Jose Rizal Shrine. Mari provided fascinating insights at each stop, giving context that helped me better understand how Manila has evolved over the centuries. Whether you’re a history buff or a curious traveler, this tour is a must and I highly recommend asking for Mari. Her energy, knowledge, and storytelling truly elevated the whole experience!

Excellent History Lesson - This is the second tour I booked with Mari and it did not disappoint. She starts the tour with an excellent history lesson on the Philippines. Then you head to Intramuros where she takes you into a cathedral, then Fort Santiago, a basilica, and finally a mansion. Along the way you learn a lot about the history of Manila, and how it relates to the history of the Philippines. You learn how history has shaped the current state of the city and country. Mari was fantastic. She's extremely personable, passionate, and loves her culture. You won't find a better tour guide.

Highly recommended tour guide! - Great tour to attend if in the Philippines! Mari is very energetic, knowledgeable, and meets the customers needs. She also works with local vendors allowing us to sample foods and drinks without having to wait in line and utilizing local methods to get us from place to place allowing us to experience parts of the Philippines that we would've possibly not noticed if were on a bus/van.

Fun and informative - The walking tour was great. Mari was kind, respectful, knowledgeable and fun. She took me on a great tour of four key locations after giving me a fascinating overview of the history of the Philippines and its people. The time flew by and it didn’t seem like much walking even thing we saw everything. One fun aspect was we took a little rickshaw type transport through some of the streets in the Intramuros which meant we saw more of the area.
