My Metro Manila: Explore the Metropolis in a Single App

My Metro Manila: Explore the Metropolis in a Single App 

The Capital Region of the Philippines, Metro Manila is pulsing with sights to see, food to eat, and stories to tell. This metropolis is home to the famed Intramuros, drawing in both local and foreign crowds with its history and beauty, while Binondo, the oldest Chinatown in the world, is famous for its authentic Chinese food and old restaurants. But we are far from discovering everything it has to offer, and this is where My Metro Manila comes in.

An initiative of the Department of Tourism — National Capital Region (DOT-NCR) led by Regional Director Woodrow “RR” C. Maquiling, Jr. and part of DOT-NCR’s New Tourism Product Development, My Metro Manila is a powerful tool that condenses everything a traveler should know about Metro Manila in a single app. Powered and made with love by Explora.ph, it runs with a purpose: making traveling within the city easier, more convenient, and worthwhile. It is equipped to provide a seamless and enhanced tourist experience while in the nation’s capital.

Packed with sights to see, My Metro Manila app compiles credible information straight from the combined databases of Explora.ph and DOT-NCR for easy access. This makes the hassle of going back and forth through several websites to gather information a thing of the past. Users can do their research, find unique things to do, and book a place to stay inside the app. My Metro Manila App also comes with a real-time messaging feature enabling interaction between its users and DOT-NCR representatives. Travelers can now have a local travel buddy in the app ready to answer queries and make every trip within the city a memorable one. 

Soon, My Metro Manila will roll out DOT accredited tours and accommodations listings to be included in the app, ready to be booked by its users. These listings are forged by partnerships and cooperation from both DOT and Tourism Related Establishments (TREs). It will soon also include preferred language options to fit everyone. To top it off, the app can be used to keep track of Metro Manila’s best features, secrets, and stories. 

My Metro Manila app is DOT-NCR’s step in making Metro Manila a more tourist-friendly metropolis by providing comfort, convenience, and information available to every traveler. ---- My Metro Manila is available for downloads on Google Play Store and Apple App Store.
