Might be interested in a site that I run for British-born Filipinos at http://phil-uk.com You're right, taxi drivers are a real problem when it comes to over-charging. Some 'condotels' have tie-ups with more reputable taxi firms who'll charge an agreed fixed rate beforehand. It's worth asking at the lobby of your residence if this is available. If you're staying in Manila, try to find a place in Makati or Ortigas. These are the main business and after-work hang-out hubs. Traffic is terrible so getting into these areas from elsewhere can be a nightmare. @Lea, let us know how your trip goes :) Anthony Hello J.

I have to admit I know very little about the Philippines which is why Alfa wrote the post for me. Planning to go there some time later this year though I think so will be able to update this post with relevant info, with any luck! Keep your insights coming....
