You always bring an umbrella with you. The weather is unpredictable and it will suddenly rain or you use it to protect from scorching heat from the sun.

[@ThePassportCouple]

Now that is a pro tip. We should not have been without one ☔️ Thanks for sharing 🙌

[@filcan4608]

Visit also the American Cemetery near the BGC.You will be amaze of its location and the design.

[@charlesgotidoc5288]

Currently, Randy’s Donuts has established its presence in only three countries in Asia: the Philippines, South Korea, and Saudi Arabia.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

The jeepney reminded us so much of the songthaew we rode in Chiang Mai, such a fun way to get around! We are mind-blown to learn of how densely populated the Philippines is. Comparing it to California was just 🤯 Also, so cool to learn about your family history. That is something Adam has wanted to do for so long!

[@ThePassportCouple]

Thanks guys 🙌 It's such a fun way to get around and you get to meet all of the wonderful locals 💛 And the population density vs. area left us speechless. It sounds like an impossible statistic. And that is awesome to hear of Adam's interest. It has been so fun and informative for us to go through this process 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🌳

[@georgebarad5093]

The Spanish culture and architecture is scattered across the archipelago not only in Manila :) Our main language, Filipino a.k.a Tagalog is composed of 30% Spanish and 70% native language. Spanish was a national language until it was abolished in the 70s. We were colonized by Spain for 333 years, this was much longer than some of the latin American countries. Intramuros was the seat of government, education, and business during colonial times. Thank you for visiting the Philippines! You are welcome here, mabuhay!!

Are there any health requirements needed to get in? basically all i have right now is my passport, but im seeing some things online about a health card ? so basically im asking what other requirements besides passport visa are needed to get into the country?

[@jg465]

Welcome to the Philippines! If you want to escape the heat head to the mountainous regions like Baguio or any of the other provinces in the Cordilleras.

[@ThePassportCouple]

This is a great tip, thank you so much for the recommendation 🙌

[@freakyflow]

Intramuros,Roxas Blvd and Rizal park is a nice place for every foriegn visitors in the Philippines

[@mocabe01]

Thank you so much for this well done video! Indeed, Rizal Park and Intramuros are in Manila. You are among the more responsible vloggers here who do research and know their craft. So many other vloggers here call everything "Manila" even if they are actually in a different city in the NCR (Metro Manila). They should follow your example. Great work, guys!

[@ThePassportCouple]

Aww, thanks for the awesome comment, it means a lot 🙌

[@wave1806]

You can see signage in the windshield.. It shows where it is going..

[@velky_reeds]

6:16 Just wanna clear it out, the numbers are not the same, we have our own number system in our own language. but you will notice some vendors would use spanish numbers because they're quicker to say; for example, the number 2 is "dalawa" in Filipino but in Spanish, "dos" is easier and quicker to say

[@kevingomez1330]

Please visit this in the PHilippines; 1.) BGC high street 2.) BGC burgos circle at night 3.) American soldier cementery in Taguig 4.) Ayala Avenue Makati 5.) Greenbelt 1,2,3,4 makati avenue 6.) Rockwell Mall Makati Enjoy philippines

If you want cold weather go to Baguio City in the North where former American Military Base called Camp John Haye.

[@zzzzzsleeping]

How about going to BGC and paying tribute to the most beautiful American soldier's cemetery in the world. Very serene and you learn history.

[@ThePassportCouple]

Great recommendation, thanks for sharing that with us 🙌

[@reygieflorestv13]

Thankyou for visiting Philippines appreciated 🎉 hope u enjoy tour here

[@peteperico8814]

Every country has a bad part of town. So please be very extra careful where you venture out in the Philippines 😇! I'm a filipino enjoying my retirement here in my country the Philippines who worked and lived in Texas, USA for 35 years! As a person, i know unfortunate situations happens.So my advice is if possible is to know where safe and secured places are. Just like in america, for example .. if i was to go to New York like in harlem, bronx or L.A, California places like Skid Row etc .. i could get robbed, car jacked or shot 😳! So please be very aware and careful. Places where it's safe to hangout from my experience here in the Philippines are .. BGC, Makati, Eastwood, Ayala and other safe places 😇👍❤️! Avoid ragged out places if all possible 😇! Welcome to the Philippines and enjoy your stay and the peoples friendliness and hospitality and thank you for choosing the Philippines for your adventure❤️👍!

[@NatTheGreat143]

You should've tried the national museum, it was just a 10-15 min walk from Intramuros

[@cristinaseno6457]

[@ronnienestor]

Warm welcome to the Philippines.

[@jrodriguez014]

I hope you guys enjoy your stay in the Philippines. God bless.

[@dalisayhd1980]

Every Americans visiting the Philippine should visit the Manila American Cemetery and Corrigidor Island.The site that full of American history.And lot more outside the capital..

[@ferdnanbanalan3120]

and the beaches are palawan el nido coron and camiguin siargao romblon tablas bantayan gigantes island

[@judgmentday221]

Get out of the cities, so hot! Go island hopping! Camiguin Island, El Nido, Palawan and many more!

[@MidnightBloomer]

Jollibee has a breakfast menu but it usually ends at 11am if I'm not mistaken. The breakfast menu usually is at the side or obscured part of the menu, you can ask them if it's still avaialble.

[@ThePassportCouple]

Oh, thanks for the tip! We’ll definitely keep that in mind for next time! 😊🙌

[@pauliejojo8241]

Don't forget to visit BGC, McKinley Hill & Ayala Makati. If you are from the US, an American Cemetery inside the BGC is a must to visit, maybe some of your relatives in WW2 were there buried too.

[@jollyrogers5261]

Cool Video! Besides all the "tourist" destinations mainly known. If you two haven't yet, visit and spend a few hours at Manila American Cemetery. A must visit and right there in the heart of Manila. Enjoy the city.

[@Trolololitarian_RepubLICK]

Welcome to the Philippines! Subbed!

[@artangeloymana1625]

Welcome to the Philippines! . . . Don't stay long in Manila. . . Go to the provinces. It's cheaper. 1. Baguio - if you want a colder place 2. Coron or El Nido in Palawan - if you want to experience island hopping and magnificent sights 3. Boracay - white sand beaches 4. Bohol - if you want to see the chocolate hills and tarsier 5. And other provinces - have different sights to offer. Enjoy!😊

[@ThePassportCouple]

Thank you for the warm welcome 🙌 And these recommendations are amazing, thank you so, so much. We are going to squeeze in as much of this beautiful country as we can 🇵🇭💛

[@totsietorres5273]

[@MrNoBodyXD12]

that actually illegal to sit outside of the jeepney in the city its not a law but more like unspoken rule if you are willing to risk its up to you

[@elykyle]

for jeeps, the places on the side is the jeep's route and the plaques on the windshield i think are the current destination/stop it's goin to afaik

[@herbertchua5757]

Iconic 1 day tour of Manila🫢👍🏻👍🏻

[@TravelbyDartTV]

It's the only place where 'rush hour' isn't just a time; it's a full-contact sport, and the only race worth running is for the last piece of lechon at the local eatery. I suddenly just remembered the time I spent in Manila while filming one of our TV show episode!

[@hard536]

Yo welcome to the Philippines guy's you are beautiful I hope you enjoy our tropical country and true friendly people and lovely people much love from the hood on Manila Quezon city Philippines 🇵🇭 ❤ keep safe always 😊

[@gustavusadolphus1714]

No, the spanish went and stayed all over the country not just in Manila.

[@faithdino4428]

I subscribed for you. Watching from Chicago…. Enjoy Manila guys….

[@alabuyog1764]

Thanks proud to be a Filipino

[@amaliahightower]

This is actually an amazing video 💙 You covered tons in short video! When was this trip? The reclaimed land you showed in your video: the government has suspended all 22 reclamation projects in Manila Bay pending a review of their compliance with environmental regulations, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources.

[@fkoff7649]

YOu may also wanna check out the Manila-American cemetery in BGC, Taguig for some beautiful, historical site. Just be discreet with the camera upon entering the gate, the guards usually allow videos / photos taken but not for commercial use, but still a lot of people take videos while they're on the ground.Hope you can check it out since it may be of significance to you since you're Americans.

[@ThePassportCouple]

Wow, that is such a thoughtful recommendation, thank you so much 🙌 And thanks for the tip on the cameras, we always want to be respectful to the places we are visiting 🇵🇭💛

[@pauvall1218]

Yes you must visit Amrican cemetery in BGC and Venice grand canal@@ThePassportCouple

[@comeconcon569]

The U.S. has a lot of influence on the Philippines and the Filipinos. Filipinos love American culture more than any other cultures outside of their own, and American English is their preferred form of English.

[@pauliejojo8241]

When going to old district of Manila better ride LRT. If you want to go to mega business districts like Makati and BGC ride the MRT

"Classic Savory" chicken is better than Max's. Started in chinatown during the 1950.. they both have the same style of frying a whole spring chicken, but max's can't par with savory's chicken

[@phoenix5054]

Max's chicken is the only chicken I eat with Banana ketchup now. Nice combo there.

[@ajsolomon4519]

Wait till you see the white sand beaches, explore the cold weather of the north

[@corpsmanfmf9772]

There is one other SE Asian nation that is Roman Catholic. East Timor, a former Portuguese colony.

[@dinbee4611]

Hi guys welcome to the Philippines. Some comments on your experiences: 1) Max fried chicken - the best version is the "spring" type (young) fried chicken although the regular version u got is 2nd best. Normally the chicken is best served whole, not sliced except when requested. 2) Banana catsup (ketchup) - originally was made from bananas with added red food coloring and other spices but now-a-days they're just made with certain kinds of vegetable/fruit substitute ingredients although the taste has remained the same. 3) The chicken dipping sauce Pinoys love to concoct for the chicken is by mixing more or less, banana ketchup, soy/worcestershire liquid seasoning, pepper powder and hot sauce to your liking. Pinoys love their food extra sweet, salty and sometimes oily so don't be surprised when u encounter this as you order other Pinoy food. Enjoy.

[@ThePassportCouple]

Wow, thank you so much for this amazing comment 🙌 We love eating food when we travel so we really appreciate your tips on how to eat like a local 🍗 It is always the best way 👏

[@bisdakpinoy3428]

I think it would be better if you travel to Baguio because Baguio have a temperature like 65 deg F at night and 75 deg F in the morning

[@ferdnanbanalan3120]

welcome to our country i hope you try to visit tagaytay and baguio

[@paolot7899]

welcome to the Philippines

[@normanpasion9103]

Nope. The Spanish/architecture wasn’t only in Manila. The Spanish was all over. Check out Vigan and Cebu.

[@ArchieS-id8lf]

Thats the reason why Pinoys love going to malls The malls in Manila are something else

[@bighand1530]

I have never seen to a Mall in Manila. But I have been to malls in the Philippines before. They are fun for sure. I do wanna check out a Mall in Manila.

[@duaneowens7777]

great video. Which state are you? I know the Phillippines has the best customer service in the world and it is cheap

[@fac04995]

American tourists should visit The Manila American Cemetery & Memorial in BGC...could be life changing.

[@jay-rfelias4431]

Come visit siargao island, camiguin island, gigantes island, kalangaman island, siqujor island and romblon tablas island. It’s more fun in the Philippines.
