Exploring the backstreets of Chinatown! - Nel took us around the streets of Chinatown telling us about the history of the oldest recorded Chinatown in the world. We had lots of treats from popular places that weren’t tourist traps. Im sure places we would have never been ourselves. And so much food! Definitely come hungry!

Manila Chinatown Food Tour - Nel was our guide and she was very friendly and informative. She was pleasant and knowledgeable. She took her time explaining the area and also the different foods that we were sampling. The portions of food were very large and we liked most of the choices. It was something different for us to do with our time in Manila.
