Wonderful afternoon excursion - This was a great way to see Manila highlights quickly but with valuable background, thank to our excellent guide, Anj. The group got to know one another well and enjoyed delicious ice cream together at the end of the fun afternoon journey.

Fun Tour with Josh - Enjoyed our express tour with Josh. It was very hot, so 90 min tour was perfect. Funky bamboo bikes, a bit small for tall people but there’s not that much riding. Cold wash cloth and ice cream at end was nice touch! Intramuros is pretty big so bikes are good way to explore.

1.5 hrs bambike tour - 1.5hrs Bambike tour with Josh our guide was fun and informative!
Cracking Jokes through Josh’s trivia while learning about Philippine history was a great way of understanding it better.
Highly recommend. There are longer tours as well. Ended off with a cool towel and non dairy ice cream. Perfect!

Great experience - Really interesting tour. Justine was a great tour guide, and pitched the information just right for us. We were 2 couples in our 50's and 60's and did the express tour which actually lasted around an hour and 3/4. The complimentary ice cream at the end was well received! A fair bit of the route is shared with cars but we did not feel unsafe. Thank you for an interesting and rewarding afternoon out.

bamboo bikes are cool - A nice tour, well organized but a little slow going.
We appreciated the ice cream scoop at the end.
Our tour guide insisted way too much on having everyone chime in "clear" after each question ending in "Cristal?"

Don't Do It - There was an unkind, unprofessional staff member. Another member even tried to sell a bike to me. The tour was too rushed. The site was too crowded. Wasn't worth a dollar.
