A history tour on wheels.
Great bike ride around Intramuros in Manila. Our guide was informative and flexible in our needs and wants as there were only two of us. Interesting biking on the busy roads but felt comfortable following him.

Wonderful Tour
It was a great tour. I enjoyed the sites, the history, the bikes, the drink, and the tour guides Christian and King were lovely.
via Viator
Excellent Tour!
Excellent tour of Intramurous especially if you are short of time. You go to some lovely green spaces, historical sites, get an included tour after, ice cream and a cold towel at the end. Highly recommend!
via Viator
Fun exploring Intramuros on a bike!
Fun to be on a bike in Manila, and that it feels like sustainable tourism. Great way to explore Intramuros! Note: while most tours include the guide sending a welcome message with reminder about meeting point, this tour did not. Traffic can be crazy, so make sure to allow more time than you think to get to Bambikes Ecotours.
via Tripadvisor
A must for a history enthusiast!
A very unique tour! I was totally clueless to filipino culture before this excursion, my guide Christian was very knowledgeable & explained everything in detail. The bamboo bicycles was main reason for booking the tour, cause that’s unique on its own, but the history about this country is fascinating.

Why this scores 89
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Experience Intramuros with Bamboo Bicycle - Ecotours: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Manila.
How much does Experience Intramuros with Bamboo Bicycle - Ecotours cost?
+
Prices start at $39 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Manila usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Experience Intramuros with Bamboo Bicycle - Ecotours take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Manila is not rushed.
Is Experience Intramuros with Bamboo Bicycle - Ecotours worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 89 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 571 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Manila, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Experience Intramuros with Bamboo Bicycle - Ecotours?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Experience Intramuros with Bamboo Bicycle - Ecotours suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Experience Intramuros with Bamboo Bicycle - Ecotours?
+
Around 200 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Manila can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Manila and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Experience Intramuros with Bamboo Bicycle - Ecotours start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Manila within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Manila?
+
On Outty we rank every Manila experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Manila Food Tour: Introduction to Philippine Street Food, Spectacular Manila to Tagaytay: Full-Day Sightseeing Tour, Manila Food Tour: Explore World's Oldest Chinatown. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Manila?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Manila?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Experience Intramuros with Bamboo Bicycle - Ecotours?
+
Included: Cold towel at the end of the tour; Local guide; Tour escort/host; Use of Bamboo bicycle; and Use of sunscreen or rain ponchos (when needed). Not included: Food and drinks, unless specified; and Alcoholic drinks (available to purchase). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Experience Intramuros with Bamboo Bicycle - Ecotours?
+
Real Street Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Experience Intramuros with Bamboo Bicycle - Ecotours offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
