We thoroughly enjoyed this tour and would highly recommend. We arrived a bit early and then got a briefing on what the tour would Involve. Got to choose our own bikes and offered suncream, mosquito repellent and water which you could top up. Staff were all friendly, professional and knowledgeable. The tour was great fun and we got to see all the sights that Intramuros offers. Lots of photo opportunities along the way and the guides are willing to take them for you. Very hot so take lots pf water and sunscreen, we did the 9.30 tour but was still very hot. All in all, highly recommend and safe.

Spend time listening to your guide's explanation about Intramuros's history at Puerta Real Gardens, surrounded by local fauna.
