While most reviews for Manila Zoo would probably be more towards the negative side - talking about…read morethe sad state of the animals and the increasing need for rehabilitation of the zoo, there is light at the end of the tunnel in the form of Kinder Zoo. This is the paid area inside Manila's Zoological and Botanical Garden that offers a little more animal interaction than what you would get if you just go through the general admission area. They have cuckatoos and Hyacinth macaw, a butterfly holding area, horseback riding for kids and so much more. You can also feed a 50-year-old Sulcata Tortoise, watch the playful Gibbon or pet the potbellied pig. For kids who are more into wildlife, they can have animal encounters with a Cayman Crocodile or a Burmese Python. Kinder Zoo isn't just about animals. Kids can have fun by taking a dip in their clean pool. Do plan to bring your bathing suit and a towel if you intend to go inside Kinder Zoo, the pool is really clean and is refreshing for kids who have been walking inside Manila Zoo all day. They also have other fun activities such as zip lines, wall climbing or crossing a hanging bridge. Tip: The entrance to Manila Zoo is different from Kinder Zoo. Prepare about P100 (non-Manilan rate; if you live in Manila the rate is half off with an ID) for the entrance fee into Manila Zoo for adults and children above 4 feet and another P250 per child for Kinder Zoo and 100 per adult.

You will have to find your way around. Rated 4 stars due to entertaining factor: We happened to walk by the pond with massive freshwater fishes and a crew mentioned of feeding food availability for fee. Another we walked by the small trail only because my daughter saw 2 small eagles standing on perch on their own in open area. We came upon the area with crews readily to provide hands on activities with selfies opportunities with adult eagle and handful colorful parrots. Encounter of Feeding the giraffes. Another selfies opportunities. Very close encounter with mammals in their cages. Not many other zoos offer it. Missed opportunities are abound sadly: For sure we missed other animal viewings without proper map. We noticed "feeding food availability" sign, but none are near to buy or where to go (except for giraffe encounter). We walked in couple areas where we aren't sure if there are animals or empty spots. Proper advertisement location could use updated. Definitely having a map locating feeding areas & engaging with animals display. Staffs are friendly, no doubt. The place is clean and properly maintained.

I've been here maybe 4 times, three of which were with family, and once for a class field trip…read more It's a very hot place, so be sure to bring a fan with you, along with a cap and some water. We covered a lot of ground area, and if you're travelling in a group, you're going to experience a lot of stops between the different areas. I particularly enjoyed the giraffe and arapaima sections, where we got to feed the animals. The posted signages are usually informative enough, detailing the genus, species, conservation status (e.g. threatened, endangered, critically endangered) and distribution of the animals with fun facts about their behavior, physiology or numbers, so there's not much need for a guide. That being said, it was pretty cool how my professor asked an employee checking on the animals about hteir conditions, and he provided much more info than the signage, even asking us on our opinions on zoos and the condition of Philippine biodiversity. It was a thoughtful exchange that was probably the highlight of that particular visit.

So World of Butterflies can be great, but it can also be very boring, depending on when you go. At…read morecertain points of the year, World of Butterflies is an amazing place filled with butterflies and flowers of all species and kinds. The entire area becomes this spectrum of colors just flying around and whizzing past your face. Unfortunately, that's normally not how it is when I go there. Literally the last 3 times I've gone to World of Butterflies, it just so happened that I got there during off season. That means that there are barely any butterflies flying around, and the flowers haven't bloomed yet. At this point, it basically ends up looking like a glorified science exhibit. All of the butterflies are either in the mating area or are inside cocoons that haven't opened up yet. World of Butterflies is during a specific time and place. If you ever do plan on going there, hopefully you get there when there are actually butterflies around. Otherwise, it ends up being a boring park.

I am not an animal rights activist, and my being vegetarian is purely out of health reasons and not…read moreat all about compassion to animals (though I am more and more leaning towards that the more I read about cruelty to farmed animals). It does not take an animal rights activist to tell you that the animals in this place are poorly taken care of. I was appalled with the conditions of the animals in their small zoo, and I just couldn't help but feel sad for the wild animals that are being kept here in small cages and really well-worn enclosures. There is a crocodile in one of the enclosures that couldn't even shift around because his little pool is too small. I just felt like the animals weren't look after really well, and they should do something about that. The entrance fee is very minimal, and I would gladly pay more if it meant better conditions for the animals. Anyway, aside from the zoo part which was really depressing, I'm glad that there are plenty of trees in the park. I am big advocate of green spaces, and I'm glad that the trees and the diverse flora of the place is well and alive that there are some animals that I wouldn't imagine seeing in this little pocket of green near my neighborhood: colorful birds, squirrels and small rodents just hopping merrily from one branch to another. I also love the lake, which is very pretty and photogenic. Lots of couples get their pre-nup photos taken here, and I hope the fees from those photo shoots are being put into good use for the maintenance of the park.

This is one of the places that can make you feel like a kid again - I definitely had that…read moreexperience! From the name of the place itself, yes, you can guess it is a zoo, but not of real animals. It's a zoo of 3D animal paintings - you can call it trick art or optical illusion, because the elephant and the whale shark look like they're leaping out from their respective picture frames, and the shark and the crocodile seem ready to gobble you up. Actually, the fun element here is also in the taking of pictures. On photos is where the 3D and optical illusion element is best seen. Sit or lie down at the open mouth of the shark and it will look like you're about to be eaten; hold a pail of water beside the elephant and you will look like you are giving it a bath. My friends and I really had fun here. There are also tarsiers (and yes, the Chocolate Hills!) and a pawikan, among others. And you know what's the best thing about this place? It's free! Yes, no need to pay anything to have the same fun experience my friends and I had.

I've always been a Hobbes & Landes fan even before having a kid. Like comic book stores and…read morecollectible toy store, this is my idea of a Big Girl's Toy Shop. I love all the geeky things I can find here, from the new Monopoly game to some science sets (I've always wanted my own chemistry set as a kid but no one ever thought of giving me such a geeky gift). Now that I always have a toddler in tow, I have to stop by Hobbes & Landes every time we go to Greenbelt. Aside from muscle memory at work, I really just love taking my daughter there because the little Lego table keeps her occupied for a good solid hour. When she's done playing, she can always look at the miniature animal models that she loves. And while she's busy looking at the fish tank or playing with the Legos, mommy can go back to her days of geekery and look at the latest cool toys they have to offer.

It's my personal mantra, that any gifts that I give to kids are educational and something they can…read moreuse for long time. This store is something that helps me fulfill this mantra. You can pick up wide variety of educational toys, be it the Lego or the puzzle games. But my personal favorite is the wide variety of science themed toys that this place sells. My best pick so far has been a basic telescope (cost me around 3,000 peso) that I gifted to a friend's child. It was basic and affordable enough to kindle interest around stars, planet and galaxy. My second best pick would be a binocular (around1000 peso) which was a great gift to enable a kid to explore things around. Also, if you happen to look around, this place also sells craft materials like clay's, paint materials, art kits that you assemble and explore the creative side of your kids.

I can't say much about the price of admission... we were doing other things around Manila so we stayed in the connecting hotel H20. We planned to visit the aquarium anyway but we received two free tickets just by staying at the hotel. The exhibits consist of a bird show, sea lion show, oceanarium, trails of Antarctica, super toy collection, creepy crawlies, and jellyfish exhibit. There are some fish but I honestly felt like there were more bugs and other animals throughout the aquarium. I almost skipped over the Toy Collection exhibit... was I stupid for almost skipping it? I had a ton of fun in that section. lol. I do want to point out two things. The bird show and the sea lion show! When I visit places like this, I typically don't put much faith into these shows. My fiance had been there a long time ago, watched another show, and insisted. So we made sure that we made it to the back-to-back bird/sea lion show. It was so much more fun than it had any right to be. The main host/ringleader of those shows was this pregnant lady... I think she might be the best person to ever do that job! The highlight was without a doubt the animal shows.

He was sent back to customer service at the other end of the park where he sat for 45 minutes while they explained how difficult it would be to replace it or allow him access. They claimed they would have to call a manager at home and would be unable to allow him access. Meanwhile, I saw patrons ushered around turnstiles and allowed access to the sea lion show. I found vendors at food court to be pushy. I would wait for them to finish the bird sanctuary rebuild before going here. Take the ferry to Cebu and see the Aquarium which was amazing and much cheaper.

When I first heard that we were going to be doing a night safari, I didn't know what to expect!!!…read moreThe highlights ended up being very fun and more than what I imagined. It's not every day they do it, (only on certain Saturday nights) so make sure you check when this event goes on!!! I really admire all of the detail and work put into the activities and especially the entertainment!!! We ate food at the restaurant here, which was perfect because we were so hungry for dinner. Every plate was a perfect sized amount for every person. The show is a must. The performers executed different and engaging choreos, and gave a show!!! From fire-dancing to cultural to LED dances, the show part of the night safari was amazing. Next, you learn about the many species of animals in the area with a quick walkthrough of each animal. After the show, we finally did the tour. We needed to use our own car since it's a large area to cover and are guided on where to drive to by the guide that joins us. The tigers up close were crazy to look at!!! The crocodile section was also very wild and scary being above so many. You get opportunities to feed them for extra payments but they aren't too expensive. Overall this was a great trip to bond over and was an amazing experience!!! PS. Make sure to have comfortable clothes for this adventure and spray some mosquito repellant if needed!!!

This zoo is run down in some areas but overall it is a good zoo where you can get up close and personal with the animals. One tip as you are approaching the zoo drive slow because you just may see a family of wild monkeys having a meal on the side of the road and wild horses. As for the zoo the people are nice, the show is good, and the animals seem happy despite being caged. One additional tip when you get to the monkey show him his face on your phone camera. He will be entertained and just may ask do your phone. Don't get too close and don't give it to him. Also enjoy the safari! Just keep I mound your in the PH so everything Andi mean everything you pay for, not just the entry so bring extra pesos!! Besides that enjoy the visit!

Rizal himself used to go there all the time for some R&R, according to his books and writings! Hinulugang Taktak is a waterfall basically with a stream that runs long from it. The whole place is a national park and several picnic tables, park benches, and even swimming pools are around for visitors to enjoy. There are clean pathways running the length of the stream, and a viewing deck/picture area right in front of the falls where you can have a nice souvenir shot with it as the background. It's currently being rehabilitated to modernize the area and facilities and for major clean-up, but the beauty of the falls has always remained the same. There's also lush greenery around that will just make it feel like you're in a whole out of town destination even if it's just about 45mins away from wherever you are in the city!
