Philippines
Hi! I'm Jonathan. Please call me Jon. I'm a visual artist, photographer, and filmmaker. I love to travel and document my travels and I love to meet and converse with people from different countries. I was born in Manila and have lived and worked in Manila for a long time. I'm very familiar with the many sightseeing spots and attractions, thanks to my long-term life experience in this city. Manila is a fascinating and picturesque city that many foreign tourists visit yearly. I have guided quite many foreign tourists as an English-speaking tour guide for the past several years. I wanted to guide tourists simply because I would like to make people happy. Moreover, I am interested in the history of Manila and the Philippines in general, culture, and geography, and I also like intercultural exchanges! I can show you around not only popular historical sites and relics but also hidden spots which only locals know. I always enjoy guiding every tourist with my best hospitality. When you have a chance to visit Manila, please contact me anytime and join my tour! I look forward to spending a wonderful time with you. See you soon!

“I focus on bringing my guests to the famous tourist attractions in Manila and nearby provinces. In between these, off-the-beaten-path attractions and secret gems await you. Adventure tourism is also a possibility. I’ve had visitors who already experienced volcanic craters in Central Luzon, walked the rice terraces in Northern Luzon, and other activities unique to the Philippines.”
