Justine was our guide and was fantastic! He knows the history well and also threw in some jokes along the way. There is no way we could have gotten so much information had we just gone around on our own. The bikes were so great to get around and cover a big area. The whole staff was very friendly. I highly recommend this tour.

Very good way to know Intramuros. Our tour guide was Mica and Josh. They were always helping and telling the history about the places. I would definitely recommend doing this tour to know more about the city in a very cool way. At the end, we receive wet towels and a complementary ice cream. It was essential to recover after a hot morning.

Full description

Get on your bamboo bike made by local craftsmen to explore all major historical sites of Intramuros, the historical district of Manila. Start your tour by picking the best Bambike that fits you. Start your tour with the guide by riding to Japanese cannon, a complex inside Intramuros where you can find a Japanese cannon used in World War II. Spend time listening to your guide's explanation about Intramuros's history at Puerta Real Gardens, surrounded by local fauna. The next stop is Puerta Del Parian, one of the earliest gateways to Intramuros. You will then be directed to the Aduana Building, Manila Cathedral and Plaza de Roma, the historic center of Spanish colonial times of Manila. Refresh yourself with a cold towel and an ice cream after the tour!
