The tour starts with a drive
through Roxas Boulevard to Rizal Park, named in honor of the
country’s national hero, Dr. Jose Rizal. After a brief picture stop, proceed to
the Walled City of Intramuros to visit the remnants of Spain’s
conquistadores. Travel through the cobbled streets to San Agustin Church, the
country’s oldest stone church, and view its wide collection of ecclesiastical
icons, vestments and other religious articles. Across it is Casa Manila, a
reproduction of a 19th century house equipped with oriental and European décor,
as well as Philippine antique furniture. Then proceed to Fort Santiago,
Manila’s main line of defense against invaders from the sea. It is a stone fort
guarding the entrance to the city from Manila Bay. It has been the site of many
tragic moments in Philippine history.
From Fort Santiago, drive on to
Manila’s central district, Quiapo, often referred to as the heart of
Manila with its market, pilgrimage church of the Black
Nazarene, jeepney terminals and bazaars. Then, proceed to the Chinese
cemetery, the only one of its kind in the world, where the mausoleums are as
big and as elaborate as houses and where the fusion of eastern and Christian religions
are very much in evidence. End the tour with a short sightseeing tour of the
bustling financial and commercial district of Makati City.
In the afternoon, proceed
for Tagaytay Tour.
The city of Tagaytay is
located on a ridge, 2250 feet above sea level. It is about 2 hours leisurely
drive south of Manila passing small towns, orchards, and fruit stalls and
coconut plantations. Admire the magnificent views offered
