Girls Trip To Manila!

We jetted off on a Thursday evening to Manila, arriving just in time to kick off a vibrant long weekend in the Philippines’ bustling capital. We stayed at BGC, #taguig Taguig – perfect for exploring the best of Metro Manila. On the first day, we explored the hip BGC area, strolling through Venice Grand Canal Mall and diving into the scene at Bonifacio High Street, where lights, shops, and energy rival Tokyo’s Shinjuku. Day 2 we started with a mind-bending visit to MOA’s Time and Space Capsule, followed by a little casino hopping for some thrills and glitz. We also get to do a lot of shopping at MOA. The SM department store was definitely a hidden gem to get cheap but quality clothes for kids. Day 3 was a mix of culture and chill in Makati, with historic Fort Santiago, charming eats at La Cathedral Cafe, and some well-deserved spa relaxation. We definitely enjoyed Manila and would love to come back again!
