Quick fact: How I ended up doing some guiding trips?

On 2022 i was in cebu job less and i was walking around the city and loving it, then i randomly search how to become a tour guide saw few websites to post the tours and i learn how it will work, i also learn the histories of the city and some tourist destinations to visits and I met few good people to collaborate with. And now doing it again in Macau on my free time, This is what exactly happiness means to me. Not that easy that I am working here and at the same time I have to do tours on my free time you have to sacrifice and manage a lot of your time. It's a matter of learning and putting a portion of your ❤️ on it. Let me share you this Cebu City Tours Itinerary by yours truly: ✅Fort San Pedro In the early 17th century a stone fort was built to repel Muslim raiders. Today's structure dates from 1738 and is the oldest triangular bastion fort in the country. It served as the nucleus of the first Spanish settlement in the Philippines. ✅Magellan's Cross When Magellan landed in the Philippines, he was able to convert a local chieftain named Rajah Humabon as well as his subjects on the island of Cebu to Christianism. He planted the cross to signify the first time in history that Roman Catholicism and Europeans were able to set foot in the Philippines. ✅Basilica del Sto Niño Basilica Minore Del Sto. Nino is the oldest Roman Catholic church established in the Philippines. It was built on the same spot where the image of the Sto. Nino de Cebu, a statue depicting the Child Jesus, was found in 1565 by Spanish explorers led by Miguel Lopez de Legazpi. ✅Mactan Shrine Mactan is the improbable site of one of the defining moments in the Philippines' history. It was here on 27 April 1521 that Ferdinand Magellan was fatally wounded at the hands of Chief Lapu-Lapu. The event is commemorated at the Mactan Shrine on a stone plinth bearing the date that Magellan was felled. #historicallandmarks #cebu #philippines #travelwithmai #getlostwithmai
