Jane gave us an extended half day tour of Manila including Intramuros, etc. Jane has excellent English, she was very responsive and helpful, and her tour was relaxed and informative. She added in some alternate content at our request, which was great. She also took us an very good Filipino restaurant to finish off the day. Marie Jane is an excellent guide and we would recommend her to others.
