They also book reservations for selected hotels and food establishments around the Philippines, as well as tours and packages for major historical sites, museums, amusement parks, water adventures, and nature adventures. They call themselves a “24-hour agency” because bookings and inquiries don’t stop even when the office is closed since the travel agents can peruse online technology. It is one of the oldest travel agencies in this decade since 2007.

Their website is well maintained and updated, though their Facebook page tends to lack some basic information.

The ones mentioned above obviously have a wide range of travel and tour services that can serve both local and foreign clienteles. For all your travel and booking needs, these travel agencies will truly show you why customer service in this city is really worth a “city of golden friendship” status.
