Quick ride by bicycle from Makati City to Port Area

Ready for a scenic urban ride? Start out in the heart of Makati City, Metro Manila’s bustling financial hub famous for its high-rises, shopping spots, and cosmopolitan vibe. You’ll pedal mostly along paved roads, cruising past a lively street scene—expect a mix of quieter side roads (over half the route!) and a dash of city hustle as you cross major arteries.

The journey rolls northward, giving you a gentle ascent and descent, so no tough climbs to worry about. As you make your way, watch how the city changes: sleek business districts give way to more historic surroundings. You’ll skirt the edge of Intramuros, Manila’s famed walled city, before heading west into the Port Area. This final stop is the gateway to Manila’s vibrant harbor scene, where you can catch a sea breeze and watch cargo ships roll in.

All in all, it’s a great way to link Metro Manila’s modern core with its storied waterfront, perfect for getting to know the city beyond just the main roads. Happy cycling!
