Really exciting tasting and learning about different foods, desserts and fruits. Jen made sure it was all safe, and the tour was done at a good pace, nothing felt rushed and we had time for toilet breaks, buying water and asking questions. If you're visiting Manila you need to do this tour!”

“Our group of 4 did the food tour with Chloe yesterday. It was fantastic. Chloe is an excellent guide and we visited little restaurants that we would never have found on our own. Chloe took us down lots of little streets and alleys and showed us a very different side of Chinatown. She is very knowledgeable about the history of Chinatown and was so helpful with tips for our trips to some of the islands. If you’re in Manila I would highly recommend doing this tour with Chloe, you won’t be disappointed.”
