The tour wasn't what I expected. Basically, what we got was a driver that drove as around and drop us off at the various sites. There was no informative guide provided as mentioned on the tour overview. It was supposed to be inclusive with Tour Guide and All Entrance Fees, we had to pay our own entrance fees at the Fort of San Pedro and Yap San Diego house. I think we missed 3 of the sites, I had to ask the driver to go to Colon Street because he was going to skip that due to time and traffic. The driver was nice and well mannered but I basically started asking questions to get information about the sites which he had some knowledge of as a local. Other than that it was basically a self-guided tour with a private driver.

Its ok I could only suggest that the tour company should use a transportation that has good air conditioning. It was really a hot day when we took this day tour
