This tour is a great way to experience the food culture in Manila. The tour guide was amazing. I felt like I was just hanging out with my buddy restaurant hopping 😀. The driver was just as amazing. What are you all waiting for? Book your food tour now🤓

Amazing day! Our two main guides were so friendly. Honestly didn’t even feel like we were on a ‘tour’ - it just felt like we were exploring the Philippines with friends! We booked it somewhat last minute but the company still responded super quick. The pick up time was early but a smart move, with the ever changing weather, we hiked the volcano early enough to where it was beautiful out. They gave us plenty of time for pictures (and I stopped a TON), they accommodated my diet preferences for an amazing lunch, and even with the evening traffic we stayed right in schedule. Such a beautiful experience! Would recommend in a heartbeat! I also think combining these two excursions is the best way to go because spending 8-9 hours at just one spot seemed like a waste of a day. These were two sights I wanted to see but with a short trip yolo was one of the inky companies that doubled them, and the only company to have date flexibility.

The destination is totally worth it if you are in a context where you can't spend more than a couple of hours travelling away from Manila.
It was the first time i did snorkeling and saw corals, so for me it was wonderful!!!
The trip was very nicely organised: we left Manila at 5am, got to a resort in Anilao in 2.5h, where a boat rented just for us was waiting. It took us to a couple of diving spots and to a beach. The guide gave us total control over the time we wanted to spend in each place. We returned at the resort for lunch (delicious and served very fast) and at around 3pm we were back on the road to Manila (the sun was too hot around that time for anything else).
On top of everything, Gerald, the guide, is a great guy! He was very welcoming, in a sincere way, and very helpful. He took care of us every step of the way and even spent lots of time and energy to make us more comfortable in the water. When the tour started we were using the life vests in the water, when it ended we were swimming without it. If we had more time, I am sure he would have managed to have us deep dive.
Strongly recommended!

I really enjoyed having tours with them! They were very easy to talk to, and they accommodate requests. I did 3 tours with them: Taal volcano secret trail, Taal heritage town, and Intramuros tour.

Booking was easy. The downpayment is affordable, only php 500 per tour. We did our 2nd tour on the day after our first tour. Since we came back late afternoon after a full day tour, we wanted to have dinner first before we did our 2nd booking. YOLO was gracious enough to confirm our booking since we're repeat customers. That was really nice!

The driver Aldrin, picked us up at our hotel on time.

All our tour guides, Joyce, Manny, and Gerald, were very knowledgeable about the places and entertaining. They told us about the history of the place and other interesting stories/trivias (Pintados people in Manila, the Balisong and other culture in Batangas). They can also speak good English. My friend is german and he understood our tour guides very well.

What I loved most is that they accommodate requests that are not really part of the tour: the driver passed by UP Manila so I can show my friend my old university, we went to a shop that sells refrigerator magnets since I collect them, we went to a cafe that sells Kapeng Barako because we wanted to try it. We also requested frequently for photos and they gladly took our pictures. They're very good photographers. At the end of our tour, Gerald even accompanied us in the public transportation because we were going the same way. I've been away from the philippines for 8 years so I've forgotten the best ways to get around manila. My friend enjoyed riding in a Jeepney, LRT and MRT for the first time.

This is just a nitpick but Joyce could do better at taking pictures. She needs to zoom more and find good angles. Manny and Gerald's photos are well done!

We paid for the group price, but fortunately ended up in a private tour. Our main guide, Gerald, was funny, easy going, and knowledgeable about the rich history of the Philippines. We learned a lot, both from the choice of sights (lots of museum stops) and the guides. Our driver, Aldridge (spelling?) was also awesome. Thank you for getting us safely to our destinations and back home. Wish we could have had balut, but you did try! ;^) It's a long drive through mostly rural areas, but the Taal Heritage sites were definitely worth the time. . We would have booked another tour, but our schedule got busy. We absolutely recommend YOLO and would tour with them again.
