I usually spend biking around just near my place on weekend.
Today is totally different! I bike with another bike…a bamboo bike!!! Bamboo
biking is totally different but safe as it is made of not just an ordinary
bamboo.
This is my buddy baby today and the rest of the bike in
Bambike Tour in Intramuros.
The Bambike Tour in Intramuros was a relaxed but informative
biking experience. I am not really fond of history but this made me review my
history in a very fun way. The Bambike tour is a guided bamboo bike tour for
historical sites around the walled city, Intramuros. It was a two and a half
hours tour but it took us three hours because of the rain showers we encountered
while biking. The rain shower is indeed a blessing in disguise because we got to get more information from Rey, our Bambike tour guide. Rey is a very friendly, sport and outdoor
savvy, and most of all I would say a humorous but real good history teacher. I
had a lot fun of re-learning.
This picture is taken while Rey is sharing stories in the Puerto Real Gardens.
Among other places that we visited are San Agustine Church,
Baluarte de San Diego gardens, Escuella Taller,
Intendencia Ruins, and Fort
Santiago.
A tour in and on the walled city
Bambike is located at Plaza San Luis Complex near San
Agustine Church. It was really worth the ride! I’ve got to really enjoy the
informative fun ride and help Gawad Kalinga (GK) at the same time. GK is where part of the proceeds of the Bambike Tour goes.
