One Day Guided Tour of Manila Recommendations?
 
My husband and I will be in Manila for just one day next February. Has anyone done a guided one day tour that they enjoyed? Since we won't have much time, I think a guided tour might make sense.
Thanks!

Even though I didn't receive any replies, I'd like to report we enjoyed the walking tour of Manila we took through the company Manila for a Day. We took the "Gods, Glory and Gold" extended tour and our guide, Luisito, was well informed and interesting. We had a terrific time exploring the Intramuros section of Manila (San Agustin Church, Casa Manila, the cathedral and Fort Santiago) and also stopped at a little restaurant for a refreshing halo-halo.

Good to know!
 
Hello, it's great to know you found a decent tour guide for Intramuros! May I know how you contacted Luisito? I'd love to refer him to some friends planning to visit the area too. Thanks!

Luisito was provided to us by the company Manila for a Day. I don't have their email handy but I think it should be easy to find if you "google" the company's name. I would imagine you can likely request Luisito. He was very charming and seemed delighted to have us learn about his city and its history. The tour was a private one so not inexpensive, but we felt it was very worthwhile.
