What is Rico’s last name and cell phone number? Anybody knows ?
Rico, the tricycle driver / tourist guide gave you such a good value for your money . He's also quite knowledgeable with quite accurate information about Manila & Philippines. He deserve a handsome tip
Can we all take a moment, and acknowledge his tour guide?!
I was cheering him on, the whole time.
True Pinoy!❤❤
Right? I wonder if he is paid by the government, if not they definitely should put some time and effort for them to get more knowledge and get compensated
@@alohashl3y trained tour guide
manong did great great job! He really knows history and a great tour guide. We nee more like manong!
I really enjoyed watching ur vlog.. but felt bad about this man who scammed you.. please be very careful wherever u go and be alert too take care always... Have a safe flight back home.. GOD BLESS!
I like kuya
I lived here near Manila but 1st time I'm impressed with Rico he's not an ordinary tricab driver. He knows basic history so well and you're so lucky to have his honesty and also the most cheap tour guide at your time . Hope he will be recognized by many... Good luck man and your tour. Thanks for visiting our place ! 👍 Tour Safe !
Trained tour guide
10/10 for Rico, he is such a nice tour guide. Hope every Pinoy tour guide in the Philippines is like Rico, he knows a lot and very accommodating and take extra care to some scammers, there’s a lot in Manila
Be careful...not all people. Has a good heart.. scammer...is everywhere...
This guy with the horse is why I almost never bother with local transport like this. It usually ends badly. Too annoying. I was in Manila in 2007 and it looks very different from when I was there . Much cleaner and upmarket . I guess 15 years is pretty long time. I should visit again .
You are right
Thoroughly enjoy your travels 😅😅
Big NO on a kalesa, horse cart ride tour in Manila. So expensive & not worth.
Those horse driven “caretela” drivers lie and will say something lower price when they’re “selling” their ride but then they will show you the price on their card which is way too high than what their “come on” sell was. I am a Fil-American visitor being taken around by a local host and the same scam happened and we almost got into a fight but they were so many of these “drivers” that we were afraid of our lives.
To tourists: don’t get sold with this horse-drawn carts. They are scammers!
Scammer must be report to the Police
Very informative content. Welcome to the Philippines Gabi. Enjoy your stay. A friendly suggestion, do not hesitate to report to the authorities/police abusive individuals. Our government do not tolerate such activities. I'm a government employee and I hate seeing such scammers.
Amazing tour in Manila very nice good Job KUYA Rico Ang galing!!!❤
Ayaw ko Yung ganyang SI Kuya Yung NASA Kalesa🫢🤔nakakahiya nmn ginagawa mo sa Foreigner.,ngscam🫢
Mr. Gabi ! You found a very knowledgeable tour guide Mr . Rico it seems you are a proud Filipino to introduce our country to foreigners. Honest pinoy one of a kind tourist guide.👍🏼
Very good tour guide.
brother, go to the police station and report that exploitative person, make them watch your video, your video is the good evidence, the Philippine government is strict with exploiters, especially with foreigners who have been cheated, so that he can't cheat again.
Hi Gabi, I've watched your vlogs before. If you still plan to ride around Philippines, I would suggest roaming the island of Luzon first since some of the most scenic roads and landscapes are here. Mindanao is an underrated island with lots of hidden gems and indigenous culture. You might hear a lot of bad stuff about Mindanao but its generally safe. Visayas region is beautiful too with tons of surprises on different islands but you need to prepare mentally and physically for the long RoRo boat rides. Regarding food, Filipinos prefer more of home-cooking than streetfood. You're lucky if a Filipino family invites you to dine with them. Best of luck!
I like that you took time to understand Manila and realize its many different faces. Most tourists don't bother to try to understand
REPORT HIM! Hopefully someone in the tourism bureau sees this video and confiscates his horse. He clearly says 50 pesos when you get in the carriage. I am so ashamed of this scammers actions. So sorry you had to experience that. Hopefully the rest of your stay is better. Take care.
the most densely populated thing only applies to Manila city, which is just a tiny part of Metro Manila. It's almost like the old forgotten part (destroyed during WW2). Most of the commerce and business have moved further inland like Makati, Ortigas, and BGC. Those are the new "downtowns"
THis video was so educational! I learned so much about the Philippines that I never knew!
Yeah he thought Philippines is very poor... don't think this is Philippines.
I don't know why have that mode of transportation with the horse in such a busy busy area with lots of other vehicles. Just the noise alone will be overwhelming for the horses.
Hello Gab, good to see you exploring our country. I'm a Filipino from Davao City but im currently residing in Macau for more than 5 yrs and been travelling to different countries particularly Asia, my last travel just recently last Feb in Phuket and Bangkok I am happy that i found your vlog and really learned many things. Now seeing you exploring our country makes me more happy that you will experience and learnfrom our culture. But its a sad thing to know that you got scammed, well actually this is not new to us even us local people still a target for this shameful things thats one of the reason that me myself never explored Manila but by watching this video makes me want to. Manila is just our gateway going up north or flying abroad. Regarding about your plan buy a motorcycle is not the best thing to do coz yeah theres a lot of paperwork it will not took you just a week but more than a month luckily you didnt pursue.Just renting is the best way. Anyway try to visit CEBU is theres a lot of activities there i know you will enjoy. Also consider Mindanao specially Siargao its a backpackers haven for young people. Try also consider Baguio, Benguet & Sagada if you want high mountains, if you want beach mindanao has a lot to offer from mountain ranges to sea. Samal Island is one of few.. I am happy to tour you but unfortunately im not in philippines currently. Hope you enjoy your visit there..reagards to you and ploy! DAGHANG SALAMAT
Dapat matutulungan ng tourism dept c Mr Rico the tricycle driver very informative and honest ,true pilipino godbless you mr Rico and family 🇵🇭🙏🏼😍
Thank you for sharing the good and bad side of our country but still enjoy your vacation.. Welcome to the Philippines🇵🇭
My first time to the Philippines was in April 1986. My friend and I were walking along Roxas Blvd (exactly where you were) and we were told by the driver of the horse and buggy that the next block was very dangerous and he would give us a free ride to the “safe” zone (one block).
After we got in, the driver kept going and was speeding up when we asked him to stop.
It was only when we stood up to jump off that he finally stopped and demanded money.
Some things never change…
Make sure uf u go manila u must r
U mudt record all theconversationthat u have@the man that u meet the different driver that u meet
Yep too much scammers
Nakakahiya yung manong na nang scam!
The better caption for this should be "I GOT SCAMMED IN MANILA."
it's clearly recorded on the video that he said and agreed for 50 pesos. he's a total scammer. shame on him. u can report him to the authorities.
If you listen he says 15 hundred…next time use the phone to verify with visual confirmation.
Wow ang galing ni kuya Rico dami nya alam about our culture and history. Gabi u get the right person to tour u in Manila. Well knowledgeable si Kuya Rico and i proud of him. I will give him a Tip for the job well done and for loving his work heartedly.
That guy in the pedi-cab Mr. Rico was the true representation of the Filipino who cares for our culture. Just quite disappointed with that scammer horse guy, hope authorities can get you him for some good lesson. Anyways, hope you had a great time exploring 🌞
Watching from San Francisco CA 🇺🇲. Take care Gab 🇵🇭.
Why would a horse carriage only cost 50 pesos??????? My gosh! If you live in the Philippines for at least 14 days, you would know that something like a horse drawn carriage, which is only for tourism should cost a minimum of 500 pesoses. He probably thought he was experiencing something cultural, ha ha ha ha. He was expecting something cultural from the streets of Manila and it cost a dollar,
The caleZa hourse guy is a scammer avoid to ride again and remember his face.
@@eduardochavacano He told Gabi he was going past his hotel anyway to make it sound like the reason for the cheap fare. Just like when the guys father told me in 1986 he’d give me a free ride because I was about to walk into some hoodlums…and then wouldn’t let me off.
THIS KALESA GUY ALWAYS TRY TO SCAM PEOPLES SPECIALLY YOU A FOREIGNERS, IT HAPPENED TO US RIGHT OUTSIDE MANILA ZOO,WE TRIED TO HELP HIM COZ HE SAID HE Didn’t HAVE A PASSENGER YET THE WHOLE DAY, SO I TOLD HIM TO TAKE US ACROSS THE STREET TO THE BOULEVARDS SO HE SAID 600 Pesos I SAID THATS FINE …. THEN WHEN I WAS TRYING TO PAY HIM HE SAID A THOUSANDS PESOS…. I WAS SHOCKED COZ I WAS GOING TO GIVE HIM A THOUSANDS PESOS ANYWAY FOR THE TIPS, TRYING TO HELP HIM OUT I TOLD HIM KUYA I WAS Going TO GIVE YOU MORE MONEY IF YOU JUST HONEST….. SO I GIVE THEM tHE THOUSANDS ANYWAY GOT SCAMMED NEVER AGAIN… THIS BEFORE PANDEMIC… ✌️
@@DraftedByTheMan Well, those horse drawn carriages are not cultural and they are expected to be overpriced because anything intended for the tourist are normally very expensive. But I get what you are saying, but tourist also need to understand that Manila is nothing like Bangkok or Khaosan Road, where cheap things can exist.
The actual price of the ride is 1,500, however he told you its 50 pesos to convince you to make a ride. Next time be familiar with different kinds and cost of transportation so you will not be scammed. Like the horse ride is not for transport to bring you to the hotel rather its for someone who would want to experience the kalesa ride and to see attractions around
Nakakahiya tong mga horse driver ng isa araw lang din siningil kami ng 3k sa 1 oras lang na paglibot nkakahiya kasama ko bf ko foreign nelibre kopa cla ng jolibee habng nag iikot kmi .
It started so well with Rico. Very knowledgeable tour guide but ends very bad with the other guy wanted to imply with his little scam. I don't think Pinoy people are like that. They are very lovely and friendly people. I love Philippines and still looking forward to come back and enjoy my holiday
Really interesting Gabi. I was always curious about Manilla. It is so varied and the gap between rich and poor is huge. Thanks for sharing this with us. The first tour guide was so amazing and happy to share about his culture, and it is too bad you were scammed afterwards. I look forward to more of this series!
nahh i just searched in google that the rich and poor gap in US is worser than Philippines
ACCORDING YOYOY 7,200 ISLAND TO OUR BIOGRAPHY GOOD HISTORY TO THE PHILIPPINES
Hey Rico, can you plug your number pls.,we're gonna find you when we're going to visit Intramuros too! Kudos to you, you're well informed ...... x
wow, your tour guide knows his history, im impressed...he actually added great knowledge and content to ur vlog
Don't ride calesa... Even us, they even tried to scam us. They can't be trusted.
Why did You pay a scammer 200 pesos? For that You could have had a car from GRAB and ride across all Manila, haha... Don't encourage scammers. 50 pesos max or nothing for that scammer. Usually Filipinos are honest and even way more honest than Thais. But most scams in Philippines are in Taxi's and in stuff that's only there for tourists. I lived in Manila for half year and never even saw a horse, and here You are - riding a horse and being scammed in couple days from arrival. My advice - don't even do things that locals would never do. Like - don't ride those stupid horses or regular taxi's. Never. Don't go to bars or restaurants that only tourists go etc. Because You just asking to be scammed. You live in Asia, so don't act like first time tourist, haha :) Use some common sense.
PS. Same thing in Boracay - don't pay more than 200 pesos to those electric taxis ever. I saw a tourist paying 900 instead of 50 pesos. If You not sure - just ask locals. Filipinos are very helpful (usually).
That horse buggy guy is such a boldface LIAR, & SCAMMER. The video ckearly showed him saying "50 pesos", also trying to initially ask for "1,500" , which in both cases he denied later. I wish you can send the video to the tourism authorities and the office of the mayor of Manila so they can put a stop on this.
Gabi...philippines has very diversified places and dialects...a beautiful and free country indeed I love my count
Mabuhay Gabi! Definitely recommend staying and hanging more around BGC in your next time in Metro Manila - which for anyone who hasn't been here is the new downtown area for Metro Manila. It comes alive from 5pm, but during the day its quiet and chilled. The area is fully developed and has places like the Mind Museum, American Cemetary, Venice Grand Central Mall, Bonifacio High Street (the main uptown lifestyle center for the entire metro), and Forbes Town (for chilled restaurants and evening hanging out). Another place you could see next time is the SM Mall Of Asia (MOA) complex called Bay City which a large new area in Manila Bay. That's where you'll see all us ordinary middle class Filipinos and other tourists if going by the Bay area. That part of the bay you went to is a bit sketchy to be honest, so I'm not surprised you were scammed by that calesa driver (we avoid taking calesas). At Bay City you can ride on the Manila Eye ferris wheel with lovely views of the entire metro, see the world's largest Ikea store, and the world's second largest dancing fountain at Okada. They do free shows between 6-10pm every day. The thing with Metro Manila is that there's a big divide - most tourists and expats hang out in the better areas of the metro like BGC and Bay City. Binondo is culturally rich, but its in the sketchy part of the city. Makati too is getting a bit dated now, since the center has shifted to BGC, and it shows in the dilapidated quality of the Makati sidewalks and sometimes sketchy characters who are there.
If you're able to go to Baguio and the Cordillera highlands and see the 2,500 year old rice terraces on the UNESCO world heritage list (its 3-4 hour trip via bus on the expressway to Baguio, but a longer trip to see the rice terraces once you're in the pine-filled highlands) - or Batanes (the NZ of Southeast Asia), its highly highly recommended - its unique to this country :) Subbed!
Eto ang mga problema ng pinas kaya konti lang ang mga foreign tourists at hindi sila nagtatagal sa ating bansa:
1. Wala tayong modernong infrastructure.
2. Wala tayong modernong transportation
3. Mahina or walang internet
4. Nawawalan ng kuryente (brownout)
5. Mahina or nawawalan or walang tubig
6. Nakawan sa NAIA airport
7. Expensive accomodations
8. Maraming mandurukot, snatchers at mga kriminal
9. Mga ganid na taxi at tricycle drivers over-charging/scamming foreign tourists
10. Mga basura or litters sa kalye at mga bangketa.
11. Pati sa mga beach, dagat, gubat at bundok may mga basura din..mga plastic bottles, plastik supot, wrappers at kung ano ano pang mga litters.
12. Mga illegal vendors sa kalsada/bangketa, may nagtitinda din sa gitna ng badian canyon, panglao sandbar at mga banka sa dagat ng el nido at coron. Kaya madumi at maraming mga basura sa ating mga kapaligiran at kalikasan. MAGTINDA KAYO SA TAMANG LUGAR.
13. Illegal squatters, street dwellers and beggars everywhere, particularly children asking money from foreigners.
Tapos sasabihin natin "Its more fun in the Phlippines" ??? Nakakahiya ! Tourism will boost our local economy kasi foreigners spend money in our country which helps our local business to earn more. The local and national government MUST do something to solve/fix these problems.
Ikr. Not gonna happen when you have government employees who are getting paid lots of money by Oligarchs. Most of them are corrupt!
nahhhh mareredtagged ka lang pag nagreklamo ka.
Your tour guide is very knowledgeable and that guy deserves some tips
Thanks for exposing that scammer 👍
That Kalesa driver should be banned from his business. That driver is a real scammer. The video caught everything. He was enticing Mr. Gabi to ride his Horse carriage for Php 50 it was very clear in the vlog. Dept. of Tourism should do something. This kind of people are hurting our tourism industry. I hope the authorities will not tolerate this events otherwise it will be repeated. its hurting all of us.
Be very very careful in dealing with taxi drivers, tricycle drivers. Some would try to rip you off. If you happen to encounter another scammer like that horsedriver tell him you will let the police know his modus.
Spain found the oldest university in Asia, specifically santo tomás de Aquino University, when the driver said that the Spanish empire did not provided education to the locals it is really to be an ignorant of your own history…….
Hi Gabi. Great vlog. I spent 3 weeks in Manila before the pandemic. I had hotel in Makati and worked in BGC. I've met super nice people. Manila have different faces, can be beautiful but also very dangerous. In your video everything looks as I remember it, with the same vibe :) Have a safe trip 🙏
Welcome to the Philippines Gabi! Please visit me in Luluasan, Balatan, Camarines Sur. It’s about 10 to 12 hours drive from Manila. I have lots of room for visitors and I’d like to treat you as my guest. I’m beachfront!
I’ve enjoyed your travel vlogs very much!
I heard also 50 pesos.i hope our government will do something about this kind of people.sorry about our countrymen sir.avoid this kind of people.not all filipinos are like this.what a shame to that man.scammer
You should tell that to the authority. Don't be a tolerator, be a good tourist. Youre not helping people, you making them worst.
if you will only fly the drone further you will see that theres an ongoing reclamation there. there are 25 big artificial islands to be reclaimed where smart super modern cities will soon rise and even a new modern airports. so if you have time you can do this. one of the good spot to fly is at the bay area of MOA. I'm sorry for that horse driver they are the one who make the image of our country bad, if you will let me i take that portion and i will report it to the autorities, he is so bad like most taxi's here, please take GRAB instead
you cannot have the real impression of manila bec it has two different sides.a modern side and a densely populated areas.some bloggers wants to go to tondo or quiapo then blog about it and make their first impression of manila.
Hola gabi gracias por el video de Manila saludos desde suecia Jaime
It is a shame you were getting ripped off by the horseman but as they say "welcome to the Philippines"
Hi Gabi, very nice video of Manila! I was in Manila end of February and it was pretty hot to I suffered visiting some of these places. Of course I did Intramuros and the beachfront but when I tried to go to Makato and BGC I was stuck in traffic. Enjoy your time in the Philippines. I would seriously recommend, if you go to Palawan, El Nido, book a trip with Tao Expedition!!! At least 5 days trip on a boat to some small Islands between El Nido and Coron. Don't miss that experience! For me it was the best in Philippines and I am still there in my thoughts. Have a save trip and enjoy!
Welcome to the Philippines, Gabi. I'm your follower from San Diego. I am a Filipino living in San Diego. I watched all your vlog. I'm sorry about your unfortunate experience with the "Karetela"(horse carriage). Be wary of scammers. There may be a handful of those at the Manila proper. Enjoy your trip. I'm sure you'll find pleasurable experience along the way. Goodluck to you, my friend.
So sorry for the scammer on your first visit to Manila.
Sadly, My husband and I were also scammed in Rome, in 2006. I did not know that we had to buy the bus ticket in a kiosk. What I did was to have my payment ready, the same we do in Spain. Two people, male and female, in uniform, when we got off, charged us €400/for two people because we did NOT buy our bus ticket at the kiosk. It seems they were just pretending to be bus inspectors for the government. We paid them 200 Euros to finish off the discussion. In Venice, in 2012, we were scammed again. This time, I ordered steak, but it was horse steak, passed off as cow entrecot. Oh well.
Wow, the Philippines is so amazing! 😮😊
Hey Gabi, nice to see you again. I just discovered a few weeks ago the Casino areas in Manila. There are not so many videos on youtube about there but the places look amazing. I am talking about Okada Manila, City of Dreams, and Solaire. They have a shopping center beach clubs and a Casino area. If you have time and make a video there it will be very nice to watch. There is also SM Mall which is one of the biggest malls in the world.
Thank you
The Reason Why the Vloggers is Not Showing The Casino Parts Of THE HOTEL is THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED To FILM Inside The Casino….. I VISITED THE Philippines in 2018 AS SOON AS I APPROACHED THE CASINO THE GUARD TELLS ME OH YOUR NOT ALLOWED TO TAKE A PICTURE INSIDE IN ANY FORM OF CAMERA DONT KNOW WHY , HERE IN THE USA THEY COULD CARE LESS…..✌️
Great video Gabi.
As for scammers like him, I walk away without giving them anything. I've learned.
The horseman said 15. Hans 😅 the word hundred he said under his nose 👃 very quiet . 😊 than you said you took the ride for 50 pesos ( in front of his face - he did hear that but ignored ) cos you was already on board. And 50 pesos is better than nothing 😂. Yeah usually scamming. Many of them in philippines. More attention and no one scam you 😂❤ I came to philippines with 100$ in my pocket. And live for a 5 years. On the beach island life ❤🎉😅 love philippines 🇵🇭. Enjoy dude. Hope no more scams for you. And don’t forget to visit Panglao bohol island. ❤ cao ❤
Thank you for showcasing the best and worse part of the Philippines. Not all vloggers do this , hats off to you brother! Salamat!
Mr. Gabi: Welcomes to Manila & Makati cities, The Philippines this week in March of 2023.I really LOVE this great video so much in Southeast Asia.I am so delighted that you traveled to Chinatown, Manila, The Philippines in this remarkable video in March of 2023❤❤❤
Can’t believe I only found your channel just now. Well seems like I got a lot of catching up watching all your vids. 2 down, more to go. And oh, I feel so sorry for being scammed in our country. Feeling so ashamed. Hope it didn’t ruin your entire stay. Keep it up Gabi! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Not only in Manila but every part in the Philippines due to poverty and the corrupt government that serves as an influence before PRRD and PBBM
lol is that the reason why previous admins make the PH Economy double for what it is now?
Rico was great! Hope you have him some tips for that. 😊 However, the horseman is the total opposite. He should be reported to the authorities! He's ruining the good traits of most Filipinos and the Tourism in his own country. That's so cunning. I felt bad as well and we're sorry for that bad experience. 😔
Tagalog. "Taga ilog" (from - taga; the river - river). Manila. "May nilad" (from "there is a 'nilad'")
The horse driver must be reported immediately...
He must not be allowed to do that again...he is a scammer...
Grabi un ha!!!hindi nah nahiya sa mga tourista...
Buti my picture mukha nya sa vlog....
This must be reported to
Manila municipal 👍👍👍
Don't buy a bike. Rent as you go. There will be bike rentals in all tourist destinations at competitive rates. No hassles.
True. Can rent a good bike almost anywhere for 500p a day. Just need to be picky about the condition. I found out mine didn’t have a good rear brake…
i was also scammed by these horsie people, never patronized them ...mga manloloko!! kita nyo?
I am hesitate to visit Manila, now I decided i am going to visit. You gave a different perspective to Manila. Thank you
Kuya hours you very bad, firsts you ask 50 pesos,nka2hiya k marami nanood sayo, manlu2ko k mada2may sayo ibang filipino matino,
hala grabi s kuya nakakahiya sa Torista sabi 50 mgaun 1, 500 💔😭🙏talaga, 🙏Hi Sir ingat po kau Godbles🌻🇵🇭🧿😇
Salute to our Filipino tour guide..Mabuhay Ka!
nakakahiya ang KALESA driver sa ginawa nya sa tourist.
Your are so lucky to find Rico, the tricycle/pedicab driver. I will look for him so he can give my kids a tour. ❤
MABUHAY!! WELCOME TO ASIA'S TROPICAL PARADISE WHERE EVERYBODY WEARS A SMILE ..and Predominantly SPEAKS GOOD ENGLISH!!
Talagang manloloko yang nagpapatakbo ng kabayo dyan sa Maynila.. don't be scammed..
Pangilad nakakahiya. Way asenso. Kita ka na manoy sa people. Blogger pa iniscam mo. Rinig na rinig ang pagsabi mo 50 tapos 1500 ang ipabayad mo. Dapat mga ganyan ipakulong.
Next time you hop into a taxi karitela or tricycle verify and double check before you enter into an agreement. This drivers sometimes take advantage but the Grab, buses and jeepneys are more reliable. Yes, Manila is so diversified even us locals come in different shapes, sizes and colors but we are friendly and loving people. There are also many Filipinos in Italy. In fact our last candidate in the last Ms Universe is half Italian and half Filipino
Nakakahiya yung scammer! Kilala ko binoto niyan 💀
nakakahiya ka sir pinapahiya mo ang mga Filipino... dapat sa iyo e report....
Sira ang hanapbuhay ng karetila dahil as scammer na yon. Nakakahiya.
The pedicab tour guide is so knowledgeable. P200 is deifinitely worth it.
Thanks for the impression of Manila...😍Sorry for the Horse riding...not nice (Scammer).your words.🤣🤣🤣Watching from italy...i love my Country Phiilippines...🇵🇭
The Kalesa driver was soooo annoying... sana mapanood nya 'tong video and sana mejo tablan naman siya ng hiya!
Kaya nadadala mga foreigners sa Pilipinas, dahil sa mga kagaya niyang scammer!
YOu're lucky to have a driver who's talks like a history teacher😊
Wow kuya saludo ako sau mura nama byad sa u galing you sa history dapat mahal ak byad haaha pwedi ka na sa history tourist guide siper galing 😮😮
Grazie!
a 🇵🇭🇵🇭here . Watchin from 🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪.
Thank you for visiting our country 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
MABUHAY..
He actually does say 1,500 at the start. He said 15 paused and then said 1,500. It's not a scam just not good communication.
I heard 50. Filipinos usually say "one five" when they mean 1,500.
He was purposely vague and when Gabi said “50?” he ignored him. Definitely 100% a scam.
Wow manila is so beautiful with wide roads different places to see.philipinos are hard working
kumulo dugo ko sa mamang kutsero! pakishare ang video na ito para makarating sa DOT. dapat mawala ang mga ganitong tao sa atung ating lansangan
Media pictured only bad things about philippines*:;Now your actually seen...you can tell...
Man, the drone in front the American embassy..? Be careful.....
kagigil yung taong nangangabayo, sana maging vigilant na din goverment natin sa mga taong hindi patas lumaban at mahilig manlamang...
I Was Anoyed With That Guy With The Horse ::: He Wanted To Scam You ::: Be Careful My Friend
You just came up to my feed..pls fall in luv with d philippines but not with a filipina...not right away..😀 get to know her really well first for 2 or 3 yrs before committing..there are still scammers around
I'm a college-graduate Filipino and I didn't know many things Rico said in the video. That's a great guide right there!
2:40 what do you mean it doesnt look like the PHILIPPINES? you are in the Philippines sir. what kind of place do you envision the Philippines were? dirty? polluted?
I understand you, Gabi, and I also notice that the driver of the kalesa said 50, and you also repeat that to him: 50 pesos. You're doing right to get down and not continue to travel. He should say thank you to you because at least you gave 200 pesos, which is not bad. Not all horse carriage drivers in that area are scammers; there are a lot who are really good. I'm so sorry, but to all my fellow Filipinos who are working on the tourist spots, be true to the foreigners; don't be scammy to the foreigners because you put your job at risk and to the tourist industry of the Philippines, and it will be shameful and disappointing for foreigners, which may cause the Philippines a bad impression and cause it to lose foreign tourists in the future.
agree withbyour observations.hope you come back!
There is no compareson between Philippines and Thailand. Thailand is at typical Asian and their Buddhism their religion. Philippines was former Spanish and American colony, respectively. It is a Catholic country.
