Good day! This is Gina, your friendly tour guide in Cagayan de Oro City! I will walk/ride with you through your tours and help you understand the culture and heritage of the wonderful people who make up this city. I am fluent in English and Tagalog (Filipino) and can act as your interpreter when interacting with the locals. My service begins as I pick you up at your hotel and ends when I drop you off safely at your chosen drop-off point. You will find my 15+ years experience as a tour guide helpful especially in navigating the city and most areas surrounding it, recommending the most suitable food for your tastes and discovering hidden gems not found on the well-beaten path. Moreover, if there is anything you need (tour essentials) or if you have a wish list (souvenir items), I will help you to acquire it. I look forward to guiding your tours! - Accredited Regional Tour Guide, Department of Tourism Philippines. - Tour Guide License, Municipality of Manolo Fortich, Bukidnon, Philippines. I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver. I am not a mountain guide or a dive guide. I can arrange for separate guides, but still accompany the group.

Learn about the historical breakout of Gen. Douglas MacArthur
Overview of your Cagayan De Oro tour
What is more interesting than learning a story of history that you've never heard before, perhaps because it was hidden or because nobody lived to tell the tale? Follow the journey of General Douglas MacArthur's historical breakout in March 1942 from the moment he arrives in Cagayan de Oro until he flies out of Manolo Fortich, Bukidnon amidst the Japanese Occupation of the Philippines. The story itself is woven from accounts of the American servicemen who were with the general during those few days of uncertainty and darkness. Learn also about the Filipino guerrillas who aided the battles against the Japanese Forces and who, eventually, paved the way for the winning of the war.
