I went here and I was thinking that it would be a boring trip. But at the start of the tour everything just went good to better. I was really educated by the history of the place. Very good tour for the whole family especially the kids. My only comment is the food really needs improvement. but over all it... More

We went there May 2010 (during the election period of the Philippines) and it was in time for the War Commemoration.It's never a complete tour if you don't DO MALINTA TUNNEL at night.I loved everything about this-hated the people on the tour group though-nobody listened to the tour guide to KEEP QUIET ( for 10 seconds ONLY) in the dark!...

Sun Cruises provides the only tour to Corregidor Island which includes a half day tour of the island and a buffet lunch. Should you wish to enter the Malinta Tunnel an additional fee is required which is of course minimal. A great way to introduce history and travel at the same time to kids and the young at heart.

One of the VERY few things worth seeing in the Philippines. It was a fort intended to defend Manila/Manila Bay from sea attack and was heavily fortified but eventually fell to the Japanese, along with the rest of the Philippines, during WW11. More

A trip to Corregidor make the World War II battle for Manila come alive, from the ride across the bay to the tour of the bomb shelter tunnel and guns. More

Taking the guided tour of Corregidor, especially on a hot April day, gave us just a glimpse into what it might have been like as the battle raged. The tour does a good job of describing the island's pre-war history and its part in WW II. It includes stops at several gun batteries, ruins of buildings, monuments, and memorials. The... More
