Bonjour, mesdames et messieurs! As your luxury travel guide, I'm thrilled to craft an unforgettable Parisian experience for you – in Manila, Philippines. While Paris, France, is our inspiration, we'll recreate its charm and elegance within the vibrant context of Manila during its winter months (typically December to February).

Our itinerary will focus on efficient luxury, blending Parisian sophistication with Filipino warmth. The weather in Manila during winter is generally warm and sunny, perfect for exploring. Expect average temperatures between 22-30°C (72-86°F). Pack light, breathable clothing, but include a light jacket for air-conditioned spaces.

We’ll begin with a curated culinary journey. Think Parisian bistros replicated with Filipino flair. Imagine indulging in elegant French-inspired meals at top Manila restaurants like Toyo Eatery (expect to spend around ₱3,000-₱5,000 per couple, depending on wine selection) or Gallery Vask (similar pricing). We'll also explore the vibrant street food scene, experiencing the unique flavors of adobo and lechon for a more authentic Filipino experience, at a much more affordable ₱500-₱1000 per couple.

Transportation will be seamless and luxurious. We'll utilize private car services throughout (approximately ₱2,000-₱3,000 per day). This allows us to avoid Manila's traffic and enjoy the city comfortably. We might also incorporate a romantic horse-drawn carriage ride through Intramuros, the historic walled city (around ₱1,500 per hour).

In terms of culture, we'll immerse ourselves in Manila's rich history, mirroring the exploration of Parisian landmarks. We'll visit Intramuros, reminiscent of a European old town, with its Spanish colonial architecture. We will explore San Agustin Church, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and Fort Santiago, all within the walking distance of each other. We'll experience a traditional Filipino dance performance (around ₱2,000 per couple) for a touch of local artistry. Expect to see a mix of traditional Filipino houses and modern high-rises showcasing the city's blend of old and new.

Filipino people are generally friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is vibrant and bustling, a lively mix of local life and tourism. You'll hear a blend of languages, mainly Filipino and English, with music ranging from traditional Filipino folk tunes to contemporary pop.

We'll avoid typical tourist traps and instead seek out hidden gems, perhaps a private tour of a local artist's studio or a cooking class learning to make authentic Filipino dishes. These unique encounters will truly showcase the soul of Manila. We will always ensure that our planned activities are within a reasonable reach and convenient for the group, taking into consideration the weather and personal preferences of our esteemed travellers.

To further enhance the Parisian feel, we can arrange for bespoke floral arrangements in your hotel room, reminiscent of a luxurious Parisian suite. This service will depend on your preference. We'll curate personalized souvenirs – think locally made handcrafted items, embodying both Parisian elegance and Filipino artistry.

Estimated total cost for the four of you (excluding flights and accommodation, which can be tailored to your budget): ₱60,000 - ₱80,000. This is a flexible estimate, and the final cost will depend on your choices and preferences throughout the trip. We are always happy to customize the itinerary to fit your desired budget.

Let's embark on this unique, luxurious journey, blending the spirit of Paris with the warmth of Manila. A votre santé!
