Manila is kinda boring, and the traffic jam is quite terrible. In my opinion, Bangkok offers a much better experience. For safety, it's advisable to use GrabCar for point-to-point all the way.

If pinay is your reason to go, you can consider travel to Boracay too.

My experience is not for beginner. Go Philippine but not Manila. Unless you are season "backpacker" and use to the hectic city, traffic jam.........other places outside of Manila offer better experience.

Plan your return journey 6 hrs in advance. You need to be in airport 3 hrs early at least cos inside airport is also long queue

I remembered it took 2 hour to get to one place. Then I went to top of the building and can see the hotel I was staying and it was about 20km away probably laugh.gif

During traffic jam I could remember the same man walking passed my taxi several times biggrin.gif
