Upon arrival at Sam Ratulangi Airport Manado, the group will be welcomed by the tour guide and begin a city tour of Manado. Visit the city center, Chinatown, and Ban Hin Kiong Temple - the oldest temple in Manado, built in the 18th century (±300 years old). Continue by passing Sentrum Church, the first Protestant church in North Sulawesi from the Dutch era, and the World War II Monument, which marks the destruction of Manado in 1942 by Japanese forces. 

The tour then proceeds to the Ring Road area of CitraLand to see the Blessing Jesus Monument, a statue of Jesus built in a unique forward-leaning position overlooking Manado City. After that, visit Makatete Hill - located at 200 meters above sea level, offering panoramic views of Manado City, Manado Tua Island, Bunaken Island, Siladen Island, the open sea, and Mount Klabat, the highest peak in North Sulawesi.
