Chami is such a fantastic guide. Passionate about her country but honest about it's challenges. We spent hours talking politics, economics, and social issues. This tour is perfect for anyone who actually wants to UNDERSTAND the place they're visiting.

Alex was a knowledgeable and welcoming guide. We walked around Makati and he showed me some interesting areas. As a history and cultural nerd, I expected more nuanced explanations and information about the country--rooted in facts, less on opinion. Instead, the experience was centered more around a conversation with Alex about his personal experience living in PH after moving from Eastern Europe. Overall, he shared some helpful history that I plan to dive deeper into in my own time. If you're looking to have a cultural exchange with someone like Alex and his unique POV, this is a great experience for you!

Best. Tour. Ever. An amazing experience, very unique and off the beaten path. The whole experience was really elevated by Isaac’s superb, storytelling and wonderful off the cuff commentary. If you’re someone like me who doesn’t like formulaic walking tours with very dry history and wants to really understand the underbelly of a city, and have an interest in the social and economic context of which things are happening., this is for you.

I highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in the social and political context of Sri Lanka! Chami is very knowledgeable and passionate about Sri Lanka's past, present and future.

Really interesting discussion of current politics in Greece. Much of the tourism industry portrays Ancient Greece and basically glances over more recent history. So this tour added a layer of understanding I would not have gotten otherwise. Isaac has a fascinating way of connecting events that makes the political landscape fascinating. If you like understanding the places you travel to deeper than surface level, you’ll appreciate this tour.
