Fun and Recommended! - This was a great experience that I would definitely recommend! We were a few minutes late because of the Manila traffic, but the staff was very friendly and welcoming. Our tour was led by Mika and Ange, who brought a lot of energy and were very knowledgeable about the tour sites. At the end of the tour, everyone receives a cold towel and some ice cream. A fun memory!

Nice little ride in the old city - I had a great time with this company. It was fun riding a real bicycle after almost 20 years! The staff was very kind: I arrived few minutes late (thanks to Manila horrible traffic) but they caught me up quickly and with a smile. Our guide was Jay. He was so knowledgeable that none of us believed he's still a student. The weather was nice, we were a very small group. Jay helped me take pictures (I was traveling solo) . They were shooting a movie when we arrived at Fort Santiago. We received fresh towels at the end of our ride, as well as ice cream. I booked this activity last minute (like 3 hrs before it started) and I'm very glad I did. I highly recommend it.

Happy biking and learning in Intramuros - Great experience! The bikes are really good, the guides friendly, funny and competent. It is the perfect way to get around Intramugos and learn a lot about the Spanish colonial period on the Filippines. After the tour you are offered delicious ice-cream in the shop next door. We enjoyed and appreciated the experience 100%.

Great way of seeing Intramuros - We went on the afternoon tour of Intramuros straight after getting off the flight from London, so although we were tired this was a great intro to Manila. The team are very friendly and knowledgeable about Intramuros. We really enjoyed the tour and learning about the history of the area. The ice cream at the end of the tour was a lovely touch.
