Tip from Trip101 local expert
I tried renting a bike in Ayala just for fun. I came across the Moovr Bikes near Legazpi Active Park, and for just 25PHP, you can rent it for 15 minutes. I like it because it’s an easy way of getting from point A to point B without breaking into a sweat. It makes travelling around Makati fun and exciting.
