Experience the best of
Manila with Withlocals

"As first time travellers on a short schedule we really wanted someone who would take care of everything for us. Juliet was wonderful. She ensured we experienced the top spots in Manila, whilst making sure we were comfortable and well cared for. Even the last minute change due to rescheduled flights was no problem. Everything except meals and shopping was all included which made it simple to get around. And our driver Anton was great. Perfectly safe in some crazy traffic! We definitely recommend Juliet to anyone 💜"

"We arrived in the Philippines for a few weeks of birding but realized we needed some historic grounding to appreciate where we were. Greg was able to fill in the gap with a few hours chock full of information that helped give our visit historic context as well insight into current day life in the Philippines. "

"We enjoyed our time with Rodolfo in Manila. He presents well, gives details when and where needed and always added local flair and insights into the buildings, area and places we visited. He took us into spots the larger tour groups did not get to and managed to get us into the church that was closing for lunch. He’s a charmer. He moved to our pace of walking and we thoroughly enjoyed the day: especially a cold beer after our long walk at the Manila Hotel. Such a wonderful spot. Our Bar server at the Manila Hotel (Andy) was a wonderful host too. "

"Spending a couple of days in the bustling metropolis of Manila can feel overwhelming, especially for first-time visitors and those traveling with children. Whenever I visit a new city, I like to use *With Locals* to get my bearings and gain a deeper understanding of both the destination and its people—beyond just the tourist highlights. This time, we were fortunate to find Rodolfo, a kind and knowledgeable guide with a wealth of local insights. One of the restaurants he took us to held a special place in his heart—his mother used to bring him there as a child, though it was originally tucked away in a different alley, which we also got to explore. As we walked through the city, he shared stories from his life over the decades, giving us a richer perspective on Manila’s history and culture. We opted for a combined food and history tour, which proved to be an excellent choice. Rodolfo was incredibly flexible, willing to tailor the experience to our interests and schedule. We could have easily explored more—tasted more, seen more—but after six hours, our children were understandably exhausted. I highly recommend Rodolfo. He made us feel both well-informed and well cared for, and nothing was ever too much trouble. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"We had a great time on our full day tour of Manila with Juliet and our driver Anton. We hit all the highlights and still had time for everything even though i asked her to adjust some things. The traffic was horrible but Anton kept his cool and did a great job negotiating the traffic. And as an extra, unfortunately we got sent to the wrong terminal at the Manila airport but I hit them up real quick on WhatsApp and they turned around, came back and got us to take us to the right terminal. That's above and beyond the call of duty! "

"Better from Manila you can not imagine… Correct,lot of expirience and knowledge about history and politic ,more then correct and friendly… If we come back he is only one solution.. Thanks a lot "
