Full Day City & Museum Tour

Experience the metro with a scenic drive through some of Manila’s iconic landmarks, including the Mall of Asia Complex, the Coconut Palace, the Cultural Center of the Philippines, Rizal Park, and the historic walled city of Intramuros.

Our first stop is Casa Manila, a beautifully reconstructed Spanish colonial home from the mid-1800s. This lifestyle museum features period furniture, artwork, and artifacts from the 17th to early 20th centuries, offering a glimpse into the elegant life of the Filipino elite during the Spanish era.

Next, we visit the San Agustin Church and Museum, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993. This centuries-old stone church has silently witnessed pivotal moments in Philippine history. Its adjoining museum houses a remarkable collection of Spanish-era vestments, antique furniture, and sacred religious art.

After lunch, the tour continues to Makati City, the country’s premier financial district. Along the way, we will pass Saints Peter and Paul Parish, Makati’s first and oldest church built in 1620, as well as the Our Lady of Guadalupe Church, also known as the “Guadalupe Ruins,” built by Augustinian friars in 1629.

We then proceed to the Neilson Tower, once the country’s first commercial airport and now home to the Filipinas Heritage Library. Its spiral staircase leads up to the historic tower room where Filipinos first heard news of the Pearl Harbor attack during World War II.

Finally, we conclude with a visit to the Ayala Museum, located at the heart of Ayala Center. Its renowned Diorama Experience presents 60 intricately handcrafted dioramas narrating the sweep of Philippine history — from prehistoric times to independence, culminating with the People Power Revolution.

After the tour, guests may return to their hotel or choose to remain at Ayala Center to enjoy a world-class shopping and leisure experience.
