Chairman, National Historical Institute

The Pasig River is the major artery that runs through the heart of Manila. Long suffering from the effects of pollution and environmental degradation, renewed efforts are underway for its revival as a viable resource Filipinos can be proud of. Learn about its fabled place in history while seeing Metro Manila from a different vantage point aboard an air-conditioned ferry boat as it winds through the now urban towns of Manila, Makati, Mandaluyong, Pasig and Marikina. A rare opportunity will be the brief stopover for a simple merienda at Malacañang Park.

Meeting point will be at 1 pm at the Sanctuario de San Antonio parking lot in McKinley Road, Forbes Park, Makati City. The bus will leave at 1:30 pm to go to Guadalupe Station. Participants will be brought back by bus to this point at the end of the tour.
