Full description

Meet your guide and dive into the history of the Philippines, beginning with the oldest stone church in the country. Hear about how and why the Spanish ended up on this side of the world, as well as the everlasting marks they left after over 300 years of occupation.

Next, cross the street and enter an expertly restored, 19th-century aristocrats' home and marvel at the furnishings and design, located at the point where east and west influences meet. Make your way toward a rarely visited part of the historic wall of Intramuros and catch a glimpse into its marvelous past. 

Then, step into the history museum, which offers further insight into Manila's old city and its history intertwined with the Catholic Church. Continue onward through the narrow streets, making a quick stop at the WWII memorial to hear about the role of the Philippines in the war.

Another quick stop at the Cathedral that represents the seat of the Catholic Church in the Philippines

Then we learn about the Filipino's fight for independence at the old military garrison.

Great tour. Jerome was super friendly and knowledgeable. Flexible with what we wanted to see. Definitely worth the money. We learned a lot about Philippine history. The tour lasted just a little under 3 hours, and I thought that was perfect. Thanks, Jerome, for a great tour!
