Fort Santiago tickets 2026: 75 pesos for adults

Fort Santiago charges 75 pesos for a regular adult ticket in 2026, according to the Intramuros Administration's own hours and fees page. Students, senior citizens and persons with disability pay 50 pesos. That makes it one of the cheapest headline attractions in any Asian capital, and the fee is the same whether bought at the gate or in advance.

The other Intramuros tickets

The same page lists paid access at the Centro de Turismo Intramuros at 150 pesos regular and 120 pesos for students, senior citizens and persons with disability, while the visitor centre and museum areas there are marked free access. Baluarte de San Diego and Casa Manila Museum are listed with opening hours but no admission fee shown on that page, so budget for them separately at the door rather than assuming they are free.

Hours are the thing that catches people

Fort Santiago runs Monday to Friday from 8:00 in the morning to 10:00 at night with last entry at 8:00, and Saturday and Sunday from 6:00 in the morning to 10:00 at night with last entry at 8:30. Casa Manila, the Centro de Turismo and Museo de Intramuros are all closed on Mondays, so a Monday visit is Fort Santiago and walls only.

What a family pays

Two adults and two students at Fort Santiago pay 75 plus 75 plus 50 plus 50, which is 250 pesos. Adding paid access at the Centro de Turismo for all four adds 150 plus 150 plus 120 plus 120, or 540 pesos, taking the day to 790 pesos.

The page does not publish a child rate distinct from the student rate, so families with young children should expect to be charged one of the two published figures.
