Corregidor Island and the Bataan Death March Memorial Sites are must-see destinations due to their profound historical significance and the powerful stories they tell about World War II in the Philippines.
Historical Significance:
World War II History: Corregidor Island played a crucial role during World War II as a strategic military base in Manila Bay. It was the site of intense battles between American and Filipino forces and Japanese troops.
The island is home to well-preserved military fortifications, including bunkers, gun batteries, and ruins that offer insight into the island’s wartime history.
Malinta Tunnel: A major attraction, this tunnel served as a bomb-proof command center during the war. It includes a fascinating light and sound show that recounts the island’s wartime experiences.
The memorial sites commemorate the harrowing Bataan Death March of 1942, where thousands of Filipino and American prisoners of war were forcibly marched by the Japanese military.

Bataan Province
Bataan is a province on the Philippine island of Luzon Region III. Its capital is Balanga. Shipwrecks and coral reefs dot the waters of Subic Bay, off its northwest coast. Farther south, marine turtles are hatched at the Pawikan Conservation Center. A towering memorial cross and a shrine commemorating WWII’s Battle of Bataan crown Mount Samat in central Bataan. On the east coast, birdlife thrives in the Balanga City Wetland and Nature Park. A 3 hour travel time from Manila is a worthy visit to this town which has full of history.
Corregidor Island
A guided historical tram tour on the small island of Corregidor. Visiting war memorial sites, learning its rich history, and paying tribute to the heroes.

Bata-an and Correigidor Need Our Help

5.00Bernie, our driver and William, our tour guide, well let us just say they are top of the line in terms of service, knowledge and skill. My husband and I could not have asked for a better duo to make our tour of Bataan/Correigidor as safe, informative, and interesting as it would ever get. It was such a thrill to walk through Malinta Tunnel in Correigidor with just two flashlights to light our way. In Bata-an, it was crazy to find that the Zero Marker of the infamous Death March was located inside a school campus that is sandwiched between a Mcdonald and a Jollibee. As they say "Only in the Philippines". Tsk, tsk tsk. It is hoped that the government move now to fix the Correigidor Hotel which is still currently in a dilapidated state, and also move the Zero Marker of the Death March in Bata-an somewhere more respectable. There should be a Bata-an Death March Museum per se not scattered artifacts all over the place. Sad. The tour is highly recommended with again--hope that many more people would urge the Philippine Government to make memories of the sacrifices made in Bata-an and Correigidor great again! Okay?
** Great Tour & Guide, Total Pain in the A$$ Getting There! **

5.00I'll be brief as my comments would echo much of what has already been communicated in recent (2024 & 2025) reviews. Three hours from Manilla hotel, four+ on the return. Thankfully my driver, William, has a decent car and A/C! PM me if you would like his contact info as he drives tourists all around Makati and Manila. Rickety outrigger canoe ride was not the worst, but the seas were fairly calm and it only took about 20 minutes to get to the island. My tour guide was a different William, not my driver. He was fantastic as he started as a Corregidor tour guide back in the early 2000s and knew his stuff. He has some great stories from actual WWII veterans who returned in 2003 & 2004 to the island to take the tour. The place is run-down, piles of trash along the pier/harbor area, and the dogs and cats living there all look like they are on their last legs...very sad. If you are a moderate (like me) history buff, or a fanatic, I absolutely suggest you take this tour. And be sure to tip your driver and tour guide a minimum of 1K PHP.
Come ye all for a visit - worth the cost!

5.00It was a long day from Manilla but well worth it. Very well organized - the company contacted us at booking to plan for our meals, the driver picked us up as scheduled - everything went very smoothly. This company is the last legit one doing tours of Corregidor. The island is only accessible by outrigger boat from Mariveles. The government is looking for a new investor to take over the maitenance and promotion of the island. (the last one went under after Covid). We were the only two visitors on that day and as much as we loved our private tour, we feel very sad that this important place does not get the visitos it deserves. Our tour guide William, knows the island and its history inside out and was immensely valuable in explaining the events. Less to see going to Baatan (the President was coming for a commemoration a few days later and the main site was not accessible). It was an expensive day trip but understandable when you factor in 3 hours drive with pick up from Manila 30 min outrigger boat ride 3 hours bus tour on the island 2 more hours drive to Bataan
Great Bataan and Corregidor day trip!

5.00Excellent tour, led by Mar! Very interesting and informative. A definite "must do" for any visitor who wants to understand what occurred.
Interesting but not for the faint of heart.

3.00We did this tour as part of a WWII History group tour of Asia. This trip is not for the faint of heart …if you are staying in Manila it’s a 3+ hour bus ride to get to “the boats” to the island. And be advised the boats are rickety outrigger type canoes with small engines. As I said, not for the faint of heart! And if you are prone to motion sickness be sure and take your meds. Our guide was energetic and good but sadly the island is in sad shape. No electricity or running water ….thanks to pandemic issues. There used to be a real ferry to take tourists over but it was a casualty of the pandemic and so far no replacement. The island itself, the remains of barracks, the tunnel, and memorials are interesting. But be sure you have the interest and stamina for this adventure if you embark on it!
Great history!

5.00It was a long day, but very much worth it. Edward was our guide, and he was wonderful - fun to be with and knew so much about Corregidor history. It’s unfortunate that so few visitors make it to Corregidor now, and that the ferry from Manila no longer runs. But Sir Edward and his colleagues are doing their best to make sure the Filipino and American sacrifices are not forgotten! Highly recommend this tour. Side note - I tripped and cut both knees at our very first stop, and kudos to our driver Arvin who had tissues and spray alcohol in the car, and tracked down some ice for me to put on my knees that kept them from swelling.
Great trip

5.00Great trip for history buffs but the trip is long. I left my hotel at 5am and returned at 720 pm. William was my tour guide and Den was my driver. Both were great and i would recommend them. I liked Corregidor island more than Bataan so if u only visit one, go to island. You won’t be disappointed. One negative was the actual “boat” ride to the island. You are on a canoe. My butt was sore for 2 days . You are tossed around during the ride. Was part of the experience so i would syill highly recommend the tour.
Amazing experience and historical adventure
