A must-visit place even for local tourists as well. This will somehow bring you back to kne of those memorable and heroic times about the country's sovereignty. The tour is very educational. The guides really did their homeworks and very accommodating. Malinta tunnel experience was for me the highlight. To cap the experience for outdoor lovers like me, you may... More

The tour offered by Sun Cruises is worth it. The tour started on time and ended on time as well. The lunch buffet is also superb. Also, the tour guides explained well everything about history and Corregidor. Tip: On occasional basis, they offer 50% off on their day tour. Also, the boat ride is bumpy and rough, there are even...

We did this day trip and totally enjoyed it. Would definitely suggest to include this day tour if you have time in Manila.

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.
