Food Rour of Chinatown. - We were looking for a short tour to fill out one of our days in Manila. Despite visiting the Philippines several times, I’ve never been to Chinatown. Mari was very knowledgeable about the different types of food and the history of Chinatown.

Amazing Tour - This tour was really unique and a true local experience. We had an excellent tour guide, Mari, that knew so much about the country’s history and food. She took us to 6 different spots and explained each of them to us and the food we were about to try. I will say, it is definitely a lot of food, some were actual meals. Most of our group wasn’t able to finish many of the dishes so Mari was very kind and took the leftovers then handed them to children as we were walking. She made the tour fun and adventurous, I would highly recommend this tour on your visit. A small warning though, I think I got a stomach bug from the drinks served on the tour. Although we were told the water was safe to drink, I would recommend sticking to bottled water and avoiding ice as well. Two of the foods came with ice in them so the only way to avoid it is to skip those items. Maybe the tour can modify the stops to exclude those spots or provide a warning to people before trying it.

A feast of local food with a great guide - Mari says, 'Come hungry', and you should, there is so much food. A great tour that we were able to book at the last minute, hosted by an energetic, enthusiastic, knowledgeable and fun guide, who obviously cares about the people on her tour, the locals, vendors and the district. Its fast paced walking but the food is great.

Amazing cultural food tour in Manila’s hidden gems - Marie was absolutely amazing and showed us some beautiful hidden spots. We learned a lot about the culture and felt very safe being guided by her through the markets and to each place. I highly highly recommend doing a tour like this with Marie she has multiple available and is a wonderful woman who is very charismatic.

Amazing Food Tour Of China Town - Highly recommended! Mari is an excellent and knowledgeable guide. She took me to a number of small, but very popular food vendors tucked away on side streets. These were hidden gems that I would never have found or tried on my own. I really enjoyed the experience.
