My experience visiting BGC Manila Philippines 🇵🇭

- It is finally time to head over to the amazing BGC, Bonifacio Global City in the modern area of Manila Philippines! I wanted to take the public transportation to show you the experience, but I unfortunately had some misunderstandings and ended up taking the wrong means of transportation which made my journey to get there take longer than it would have taken me if I walked. Once I finally made it down there, it was night time but I made the best of the experience to share with you all the beautiful "New York-like-time square" area and then go for the best burger I have had in Asia!!!

I have a very special project I will be announcing soon on my new Instagram, it has something to do with apparel. A project I have been interested in working on for years and I have finally made some huge strides on it in the last couple months. It is exclusive for World Nomac followers subscribers and supporters. So if you can follow my new Instagram page here which I will be sharing some exciting information here soon: instagram.com/wearperception/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y%3D
Don't compare my country with yours and not very complaint and you look like a terrorist
Sup bro I'm moving there not knowing anyone so I'll need some friends and good tips about menila
And way's to make more money for Paso's
I'm learning more of their language so I knew everything you just said at the beginning
Did the beer hit you lmao 😂 5 point
Mac, people are not necessarily shy speaking inside the metro / MRT. It's just that people are prohibited in speaking inside the train due to COVID-19 protocols hehe. Also BGC is actually in the middle of Guadalupe and Ayala so You can go to BGC via Guadalupe in jeepney, You can also go to BGC via Ayala in bus
Hi Mac, I’ve been silently watching your blogs since 2 weeks ago and always forgot to subscribe, finally I hit the red button today.😃 I just love your positive vibes and how you humbly interact with the locals. Thank you for promoting our Country. Missing my home 🇵🇭❤️. All the best from Germany.
Thank you for watching!! So glad you are enjoying the content :)) I’ve thoroughly enjoyed meeting all of the locals! Best to Germany und Vielen dank!
@@worldnomac Wow! Thank you for the notice and quick response!😃 Walang anuman! Ingat po. Guten Tag!
@World Nomac Thanks for showing us around brother, I hope you have a wonderful time there. When are you planning to visit Malaysia 🇲🇾 😊? By the way excellent content 👌.
@world nomac you in my comment someone replying me it's that you?
Always with a "kamusta ka?" and a smile si kuya vlogger. How polite. :)
Also try: "Musta po?/Musta te?/Musta kuya?" It's more casual. 😊
im Filipina from Sydney and i love watching your vlog it fascinates me how you love Philippines 🇵🇭 Enjoy
There are three ways to get to BGC, you can take Guadalupe, Ayala or Fort Bonifacio SLEX. Since you are in Guadalupe, there are jeeps there going to BGC but the closest one is in Ayala where you can take the bus.
Guadalupe station is also an option for going to BGC, just take those jeepneys going to Uptown just at the back of the ABC Mall that white one attached to the MRT station, though you didn't get the first instruction from the ticketing which the girl said "Ayala Station". Ayala station is actually the same distance going to BCG, the difference is it is way more convenient as it has a dedicated bus going to BGC. Hehe, nice exploration. Cheers!
Thank you so for sharing this much of information with me!!!
I would definitely keep that in mind for my next ride to BGC😄
you can try the modernized jeep (it looks like a mini bus with AC) from Guadalupe :) you can drop off in front of Serendra
@@cryptonixstudio…other foreign vloggers have warned their subscribers about this telegram thing…it is a scam.
@@klaudefarrales7187 he best reply to me and confirm that wasn't him.
Just made me realized how there's so much thet needs to be improved in the public transportation infrastructure in Metro Manila. I'll be visiting this March and I'm already stressed just thinking about going around the city 😅 Hopefully this can be addressed in the next decade, especially reading about the subway that's being built.
Hello ever since you labd here in the Philippine i've been watching you vlogs be safe
Subscriber here, goodness me watching you getting lost whilst exploring way to BGC on Zero Hour it’s not fun at all. I’m impressed that you remain calm and positive.
Imagine I’ll do that I would be same since living away abroad. It’s good that showcase this here. At the end
You managed to arrive, regardless of your long journey.
I can’t believe that BGC became, used to be Fort Bonifacio.. .. my recent visit prior pandemic failed to visit this place .
Salamat for your content I do appreciate it.
Thank you so much for your beautiful comment and for supporting me!!
It's normal sometimes misunderstanding happens although I have enjoyed my time to BGC
@@worldnomac my pleasure, who knows that you will be explore OZ land in particular Brisbane Queensland State . There is similarly with PH due semi tropical 🌴 climate.

An Ofw here working in Jordan. 👋I’m happy to watch your videos everyday. Thank you for visiting my country! Much love 💕
We're very sorry about what happened kuya Mac I feel that your very tired and your still go there for us thank you so much
It's okay, I loved my time going to BGC. It's normal sometimes misunderstanding happens
@@worldnomac POWER ON ALWAYS MACMAC LIKE @ BECOMING FILIPINO OR KULAS😊
You not easy today , thanks beautiful video, I’m so enjoy ❤
Next time please can i join let's do collaboration
@@worldnomac The best way to go to BGC is by jeep or bus. If you will take a jeepney ride, go to Guadalupe. If you want bus, go to Ayala.
Much respect to the humble, hardworking, friendly Filipinos. Can’t wait to be there for Xmas holidays. It’s more fun in the Philippines indeed! Be safe in your adventures! Greetings from Canada ❤
I like BGC thank you for promotingphilippines.hope to see more places in the philippines
Hi, Mac. Actually, these men whom you asked were right. You can go to BGC either from Guadalupe or Ayala. From Guadalupe, you'll just have to find the jeepney terminal near the train station. And from Ayala, thru the BGC bus. Still, congratulations that you made it! 🙂
Hi Mac...nice to see you again in your blog..thanks for exploring much in my home Philippines.
You always have to get off at AYALA STATION when you use the MRT Train going to BGC. From there you can either walk or take a BGC Bus goin to BGC.
I feel bad about that long walk because BGC is just near to where you were from which is Makati. It should not take that long. You were so patient, understanding and really sticked to your goal of not riding the cab. More adventures Kuya Mac ;) I appreciate you visiting and exploring The Philippines. Enjoy your stay!
😊😊😊
They really need to organise their mass public transport. This is appalling. Manila is still stuck being car centric when most modern cities are going towards green, pedestrian friendly and mass transit reliant which is more practical and easier to navigate.
@@ophanimangel3143 This is true. But there is definitely progress in this aspect and there will be more as there are a lot of ongoing train rails and subway train system construction. But then again, progress is just so slow 😅😢
You are an expert in blogging , thanks for the way how u portray the Philippines, its very kind of you to put Manila in higher perspectives, coz some people are still ignorant today that Filipinos are still backwards and we live in the on trees and there perspectives are that we are a very poor country. thank you World Nomac
Well it is true though that Manila still has problems. Even Kigali City in Rwanda looks more developed than many parts of Manila outside of BGC and Makati. We are a long way behind in terms of urban development.
Thank you mac for being kind to my fellow Filipino people
I have never seen a man like you very honest, kind and and so real man
Glad you appreciate my country
Hope u have more fun days to come!
Salamat sa pag-vlog tungkol sa Pilipinas! ( Thanks for vlogging about the Philippines )
Salamat Kuya!
Got a wrong way idol..but don't worry it's a part of your journey here in Manila PHILIPPINES..🤗🇵🇭👍🇱🇷
Take care world mac..
You're the best blogger 👏👍
Thank you so much for your kind words, my friend!!
It's great to have you here my friend!🤗🇵🇭👍
No thats a right direction guadalupe is also an alternative way going to BGC take a jeep there.
@@worldnomac he gives you a right direction its an alternative way going to BGC take a jeep going there.
You should've paid attention to the security guards and the person in the ticket booth, they said Ayala station. You see public transport doesn't always go directly to the place you need to go, and that goes the same with jeepneys.
They were not clear in explaining to him. I’m pinoy and I could barely make out what they were saying.
Wow that was a tiring video --- Im glad you are okay. Metro Manila is a challenge even for locals from Visayas and Mindanao. You did great!
Is good seeing you are doing well visiting in the Philippines. Im amaze in you your such a good you tuber . Having fun learning Tagalog and talking to all people . I'm your fun now 😊 I got to hook up watching your blog from Philippines. So proud being Filipino
God bless you on your trip in our beautiful country!!
so great you visited BGC👍🇵🇭😊
Watching you commute and get lost stressed me out a bit. Haha! You turned the 15 minute Makati to BGC travel time into 2 hours and you're still smiling and energetic. Lol. Good for you, bud! Love the optimism! x
😅😅
Wow 33 mins ago!! I just binged watched all ur video of the ph! ❤️❤️ much love man
I've been binge watching your vlogs, love your energy and the way you interact with the locals.
Here are some Tagalog words you can use:
1. salamat po (adding "po" shows respect to strangers especially when saying it to an elder. "Kuya" means older brother. and "ate" means older sister so we usually say that to others older than ourselves. You can add kuya or ate when the person you're saying it to looks older than you).
2. Kamusta ka or kamusta KAYO? (How are you?)
3. Anong pangalan mo? (What is your name)
4. Masarap ba yan? (meaning "Is that delicious?" If you want to ask if that particular food taste good).
5. Anong paborito mong pagkain? (What is your favorite food?)
6. Alin ang paborito mo? (Which one is your favorite? You can use that when asking a filipino which food or item is their favorite).
7. ilang taon ka na? (How old are you?).
8. Ingat ka (take care). You can say this after saying bye to others.
9. Magkano po ito? (How much is this?) or you can simply say "magkano?" like how you've been saying it.
10. Gutom na ako (I'm hungry) or busog na ako (I'm full).
11. Gusto ko pumunta sa chinatown (I'd like to go to chinatown).
exactly. that's what I've been telling Mac. The constant kumusta ka, (you dont need to ask them how they are all the time, especially when they've just met you.just say "Hello" or "Hi".) and salamat kuya or ate, "Salamat Po" would be much nicer and pleasant to hear.
Enjoy your stay! Love your videos 🎉🎉🎉
Yes I'm enjoying your video..watching till the end🇱🇷🇵🇭🤗❤
Thank you so much for watching my friend!!🇵🇭🤗❤
It's great to have you here
Modern manilla definitely has greats places, those views remind me of the fabulous New York City 🏙 great video mac 📹
We hope to see more videos of your adventures in the Philippines ❤️❤️
Love your video. Always good vibes. You don’t freak out giving you the wrong way 😂.
Thank you for a really great tour of places I'm no longer familiar with! Kudos to you enduring that grueling trek around that confusing trail & directions! Enjoyed it much! Now I know what not to do when I go back home!!
Kuya Mac, you are my favorite blogger 💕PH! I'm glad my friends here in Texas told me about you that you visited my country!
Finally, I am already a subscriber of your ytube channel I'm been watching your many vlogs and never attempt to subscribe now finally I made up my mind. Thanks for being nice to all my kababayans.
🇵🇭💖Mac, you MRT and BGC bus travels are the cheapest and less prone to overcharging compared to taxis, regula buses or jeepneys. Very good. We cant do anything about the traffic, you just have to get use to it or familiarize yourself on when traffic is less. Although not always, between 10am to 11 am and 2pm to 4pm are the best times to traverse Metro Manila.👍🤟
Suggestion for government: Pass a law that all At-Grade stations require Half-Height PSDs, and Underground Stations require Full-Height PSDs, so that train stations will improve Efficiency, Quality, and Safety, while lessening costs.
I'm always watching your blog darling since you start blogging in Philippines...hope you enjoy and take care always💓
Mac I’m so glad U explore the area on BGC and have a great experience 👍
Mac, I watch all your videos in several countries specially these in Philippines, anticipating every episodes coming ❤️❤️❤️
Defo, You are the MOST friendly vlogger I've bumped here.
I've been watching your blog for a month , and just subscribed now..keep safe always...
I love your positivity Mac ❤️
AYYY sup ya dude , thanks for visiting Philippines
Mahalo for this video..will be there in a few weeks. Having this video in English makes it easier for us to plan. Sending you positivity and Aloha🤙🏻🌺❤️

Being 4am in San Diego... this is the most intense video yet from your channel. im still catching my breath
I happy that you choose our country for your time vacation here I hope you can appreciate the hospitality of Filipino here stay safe and God bless the vacation her❤️
Hello Mac i just finished watching your video in youtube using my television it's the first time you arrive in Manila and you checked in at Ramada Inn, Binondo. After watching the whole video i quickly grab my phone to subscribe in your channel and hit like and notification bell i hit all. Now i am searching your videos which one to start watching again.Road to 1 M subscriber💪Good Luck and be safe🙏
You should get a AirBnB in BGC. You can get good deals and beautiful studios or 1 bedrooms with amenities such as a gym and a swimming pool too. You should do a collab with Mergim Vlogs or Make It Happen Vlogger Mike. They can show you what BGC is like and where to find what you are looking for.
I love you Mac😊 Im sorry for the confusion though. Sometimes its hard to navigate around but I know your gonna be ok. I wished I bumped with you somewhere and would love to show you around. Rock on 🤘
You did it despite everything. Congratulations, Mac.
What an adventure!
World Nomac thanks for sharing this amazing video.
Hi Mac! This is a good video. Got to see that part of Makati area and the improvement especially that cross over bridge for the pedestrian. Mac, double check with reliable person, sometimes Filipinos can be playful especially with foreigners. I’ve seen a few of your not so nice experiences with the “motorcycle guy” charging you “double “ and pretending he miscalculated the service fee, and the camera guy at the park. Though, you pretty much knows how to counter attack these guys. Keep exploring the places and be careful though. Watching from Jacksonville Florida USA 🇵🇭🇺🇸
Hello Mac, you are absolutely right, the old town Manila vs Ayala, Magallanes, BGC, and Makati really has great different vibes, most foreigners usually start their visit in BGC. There are a lot of things to see in that city. Too bad you did not start early in the day because you are caught in the peak time when everybody is going home from work. The first impression of foreigners, about BGC, it is like New York, Santa Monica as well as Chicago. I have been to Chicago and New York, and the high-rise buildings, you can feel it in BGC. A lot of high-end shops and restaurants. You need to come to the open flea market on the weekend where you can get a deal on good foods, fruits, and snacks. Really proud of you for exploring the two sides of Manila the old and modern. There are more lots to see, Baguio is our summer capital, with fresh cold air and you will see the breathtaking mountain views and how the people who lived there outside the city but it is also a city at the highest elevation. of course, you will need a car like when you visit Tagaytay. It is a winding road, it is called a zig-zag road. Have fun and there are more wonderful places to see in the Philippines.
Hi mac, I always watch your vlogs, especially when you're in the Philippines..God bless you
Nice to see you're in Makati & BGC, exploring other areas in Manila. I miss Makati. I thought you're in Nepal. Stay safe, Mr Mac. You'll meet a lot of other foreign vloggers in BGC. 👍
wooww... craving for burger... will try that burger this coming rest day :) Hope you still enjoyed ur tour though the day had been rough for you.
Hi Mac...been following your travels in the Philippines. AT least your day ended well with the delicious hamburger!!!!

I really love your burger and light beer experience ❤❤❤ it’s so lovely. I’m super excited to try that on my vacation in the Philippines soon 😅😅😅 your advertising is so effective 😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉
This kind of journey vlog makes me want to wish that the Manila subway would be finished as soon as possible. It will make commuting around the city so comfortable, calling for BBM and DPWH to fast-track the construction of the Manila Subway, please.
Exactly. This is so inconvenient. The target finish of the first line of subway is supposedly around 2025. Hopefully it will be operational by then. Many who want to do business would be so discouraged by this chaotic system.
Hope your having a fun time kuya
You are very polite, always saying Salamat ate, Salamat kuya, it’s like a rabbit warren too many over passes. Take care and enjoy your holidays in the Philippines especially in Makati. Enjoy your day!!

Bro Mac feel and enjoy your stay in the Philippines we love...
Thank you so much, my friend!! ❤️🤩
Good day Sir Mac maybe it's language barrier, and thank u for being so patient and understanding. Good luck and stay safe.
This is your first vlog that i was able to watch and I enjoyed the entire time. It was not boring since it seems like I was with you the entire trip. It also made me worry to watch you navigate throughout the city alone. But I guess I noticed something funny, sorry I can't help but mention. I think I know why you abruptly ended your vlog upon passing by that narrow alley. YOU SHOULD'T HAVE GONE THERE. But wow, you are so kind to not drop a comment about it. I was nauseous for a full minute!
im sad that i cant see my peoples faces and smiles. lets all move on about pandemic.
Your so patient to walk.... Filipinos not used to walk nowadays.🤣....you can ride a taxi from your place in makati going BGC ...it's just near....I'm happy you appreciate our country... mostly our place in Manila 😍
Hi’ mac i’m from the Philippines 🇵🇭 and i’m very proud of you for touring our land Philippines 🇵🇭 take care ingat keep safe enjoy your stay godbless you’❤️👍
Sorry that you didnt got the right ways for going to BGC , nxtime your not gonna be lost you know the way already, i’m watching your blog always i subcribe to you channel , enjoy take care always’
What a nice adventure to get to BGC! 😊😊😊
Salamat for the nice video. People are very friendly and helpful there.
@TELE-GRAM--worldnomacTL I really like your attitude..Your positive energy is in the air and I can feel it including your great smile. I just subcribed. I will watch all of your videos and that would take a long pleasant time. 😀
Mac, i suggest you ask the security guards or MMDA officer a more reliable person so you wont get lost. I feel so bad for you. Take care.
The guards and the one in the boot were correct and the man near the stair also said that it's the right side train but you followed the one who said it's the left train 💀
Learning a lot of Tagalog sentences! Great job!
Thank you my friend!! ❤️
Trying to learn some more 😅
Hey! Im always watching your videos! Hope to see you before you leave the country. I have something in my mind where i can bring you something great. 😎
Hello machan I watch ur channel after long time 👋👋
i watching ur video 2x everyday to less stress
Definitely its very tiring to travel yet enjoying when you went to a place thats is new and very modern Places. Like also some new with that place will also the same since the location and everything is very confusing especially when you are commuting alone. Have a safe place Mac🎉
