1.Spectacular Manila to Tagaytay: Full-Day Sightseeing Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 349 reviews · from $105Our pick

Spend 8 to 10 hours traveling from Manila to cool Tagaytay, riding a jeepney to People’s Park in the Sky, sampling local food, then exploring Paco Park and Intramuros. Guides such as Mark, Ken, Nona, and John Ferdinand are praised for clear stories and friendly help, though heavy traffic can make this a long day.

“This one-day scenic tour was a highlight of our stay in Manila! The itinerary covered stunning viewpoints with plenty of time for photos. What really made it enjoyable were our guides, Claudine and JC. They were incredibly knowledgeable—sharing fascinating history, local insights, and fun facts throughout the day—always helpful, answering questions, offering tips, and ensuring everyone in the group was comfortable. Their enthusiasm was contagious and made our tour feel personal and engaging. The second half of the day we were lucky to have a personal tour inside the Intramuros, and see the gorgeous Manila Cathedral… Thank you Adrien for driving us through all the difficult traffic!”

“Our guide, Malou, was very knowledgeable of the various regional areas. The things we liked the most were Malou’s wishes for us to experience new things like drinking coconut water straight out of the coconut, fried bananas, and the jeepney ride to the peak. We also enjoyed the visit to the Manila American Cemetery, the Memorial, Rizal Park and monument, and the walled city. We especially enjoyed the history lessons as we visited each of these places. Of course if it wasn’t for our courteous and safe driver, Oswald, it would not have been possible.”

We saw how people live outside the city, saw the nature, and tried local fruit and vegetables at a roadside market. Even though the weather was rainy, we had a pleasant day with Marvin, who turned out to be very well educated, knowledgeable in many aspects of life in the Philippines. Highly recommended!”

The boatsmen on all boating events were very friendly and experienced with handling their boats and you’re given life vests so no need to worry. The Pagsanjan falls tour included a full filled adventurous canoe ride up a river through beautiful scenery ultimately to arrive at a beautiful waterfall that has the option of going underneath it and getting into the water at the falls. Our two tour guides Noi and Lonnie were amazing! They were so friendly and…”
