    Please avoid Manila Taxi's. Use Uber, Grab or Lyft to avoid being scam for locals or foreigners.

      I think they might be, Americanised in particularly, amazed at how much North American culture we came across - so friendly

    if taxi drivers doesn't flag down the meter right away before they step on the gas then they intend to charge more calling them out is 99% irrelevant. when you hail a taxi tell them where you need to go and tell them to flag down the meter right away it usually takes them by surprise before everyone is in the taxi. as much as possible i myself avoid taxis. i use grab prices are up front on the app right away it can be a challenge during rush hours because your competing with lots of passengers.

    How amazing to see that your boys are not picky 💙 They’ll try anything especially that salted eggs 😂 It’s usually eaten mixed with salad. I don’t eat it by itself 😂. The servers should’ve told you how to eat the food you ordered. You probably already know halo halo in English is mix mix. But it’s ok you all enjoyed it without mixing it first. The purple ice cream is ube and it’s not taro. I’m sorry about your experience with that taxi driver. The better option is Grab. Take care and see you on the next video 🙏

    Typical of Manila taxis will just rip you off, when you go to Baguio they just use the meter no fuss just honest drivers

    Be careful if you ride a regular taxi here in the Philippines, much better and much safer to ride a GRAB.

    For that taxi experience:
    1. Never negotiate with the driver on how much you'll pay. That's sending them a signal that you're willing to pay more than what it's supposed to be.
    2. Just use the meter. Of course, unless you know how the meter works and used to travellingin a certain distance, you could really be suspicious.
    3. Have a small talk with them so you're (kind of) letting their guard down. Who knows, you might find a middle ground and he may hesitate scamming you. Oh yeah, using a camera during the ride, presenting yourself as a youtuber can also work😉
