Well done Justine, Bamboo Bikes tour leader. - A mixture of history and gentile biking makes for an interesting 2.5-3 hours. If you are worried about the traffic, don't be. The traffic when crossing major intersections is stopped by a member of the team. Our guide Justine spoke excellent English and just about got the balance right between conveying historical information and allowing for free time at the various stops. For me, the most harrowing was the trip to the dungeons and learning about how mankind treated fellow mankind. Will we ever learn? Whilst Manila isn't the prettiest of cities you will get a good overview. The surprise at the end of the tour is a refreshing towel and local ice cream. It is important to keep hydrated so take water.

Great tour for solo travelers! - The Bambike experience was great! Light riding with stops in between so good for a variety of fitness levels. JD and Josh were great! With the educational and learning background and with keeping us safe and together on the roads. I went solo but we had a group of about 9 which was great for asking questions and exploring the locations on our own for some time.

Would definitely recommend! Biking tour > walking tours - My family and I did the 2.5 hour experience with Prime as our tour guide, who was so sweet and kind - he gave good background information and was always happy to help take a photo for us and other groups. We stopped at multiple locations (I think 6-7) and were able to go inside the Manila Cathedral. The itinerary listed on the site is accurate. The ice cream and cold towels at the end were a nice way to end. Overall, really had a great time - biking is a lot more fun than walking around, especially in the Manila heat. My parents, who are in their mid/late 60's, were also really able to enjoy this.

A Must Do in Manila - Paolo gave our family a wonderful tour filled with great historical information as well as a lot of funny facts. He was very knowledgeable. He and Josh navigated through the busy city with ease and made us feel very safe on our bamboo bikes. We definitely recommend this tour! The ice cream surprise at the end was such a wonderful treat.

A gentle cycle around historic Minila - I went on this tour with my Husband and my friend. The 3 of us absolutely loved it.From the moment we were given our lovely bikes right to the icecream at the end. We were brought around the old city of Manila and our guide Anj was very informative not only about the history of the city but she answered my many questions about the school children we saw on our tour. Thank you Anj . We had a beautiful lunch in Barbara's after. Great value for money thank you guys .

Longer than expected tour - Tour started 43 minutes late. There was a large number of Italians who they wouldn’t provide their own tour so they had to struggle through with the English. Felt I was paying ‘western’ prices for a tour that didn’t meet expectations.
