Additional Information

Late November is the start of the dry season, so you can expect warm, humid days around 24C to 31C with the heaviest rains behind you. Since this is a full-service airline, luggage is included, which is a rare treat on a long-haul fare this low, so you can pack properly for nine days without watching the scales.

Manila rewards the curious. Start in Intramuros, the old walled city built by the Spanish in the 1570s, where Fort Santiago (4.1/5 on TripAdvisor) sits on the bank of the Pasig River with its landscaped gardens and thick stone ramparts. Wander the cobbled lanes to San Agustin Church and Casa Manila, then round off the day with sizzling sisig and cold San Miguel in a heritage courtyard, exactly the sort of trip that suits anyone who likes their history served with proper street food.
