“Definitely worth a visit” Reviewed October 7, 2012 Tlc73 (senior reviewer) Brisbane
Loved this tour. Early morning start and a bit hard to find the Dock the boat leaves from, plus several people got sick on the ferry ride over. However the staff were great at dealing with it.
The island tour was professional and ran smoothly. The sites are well cared for and the detail from the tour guides was interesting.
Beautiful island with a fascination history.
Do the light and sound show in the tunnel - only 150php and worth it

Lunch was a buffet and quite good

Good chance to learn about the recent war torn history of the area.
“A day well spent”

We were on the English speaking bus and the microphoned tour guide spent the day eloquently passing on her well rehearsed and well informed knowledge of what had occurred in the islands history. Many stops are made where passengers are given time for snapshots etc.
A buffet type lunch is included at the half time break which is satisfactory and welcome.

The only issue I had was that an extra charge was made for the Malinta Tunnel light and sound show. Probably the travel agents neglect, make sure this is included and a receipt given for this.

Loved the patriotism displayed by the tour guide and the theme of the program. It made me

    Bully's Restaurant Report

    Many people are on lunch break and are rushing to get some delightful soul food before their break ends. The parking spaces are limited and the restaurant itself is relatively small, so come with only a few friends and make arranges to drive just maybe one vehicle if you intend to sit down and eat. You can also place your order to-go if you do not want to dine-in. Mostly every time I go, I always get my food to-go so I won’t have to witness the hectic crowd. The menu is straight forward, choose a meat and sides. The meat ranges from fried or baked chicken, fried or baked catfish, ribs, meatloaf, oxtails, neck bones, fried or baked pork chops, beef tips, shrimp, etc. Different sides include: lima beans, collard greens, turnip greens, mustard greens, macaroni, corn, yams, mashed potatoes and gravy, rice and gravy, peas, okra, etc. The food is provided on plastic trays, similar to grade school days, but the food served in those trays is beyond delicious from any of the food from grade school. The prices are very reasonable for the great amount of food they give you. You probably will spend just about $10.00 at the most on one meal, it all just depends on what you order. I have tried mostly all the food such as, the fried chicken, mac and cheese, collard greens, pork chops, pasta, beef tips and rice, red beans and rice, peach cobbler, banana bread, pound cake, etc. Like I said before, the portions are very large, so you…

    I stayed for the weekend in June. We camped at a nearby campground that was about 20minutes away from the island by boat. It felt like a dream when you were on the island because it was just so pretty. The most magnificent part is that no cars are allowed on the island so all you see is bikes, and horse and buggies. My favorite part was when my grandparents, Hannah and I biked 8 miles around the entire island. It was probably the easiest bike ride ever because I was so distracted by the stunning view. It would tell you what mile you were on too because a sign to the side of the road would say mile 1, mile 2, mile 3,…

    The avowed aim of the crime fiction genre is a quest for justice for the victims of crime. This is driven by our fears and desires. It is the moral responsibility of the detective to solve the crime, and see that moral order is restored. As humans we have an innate sense that justice must be served; the quest of the detective becomes ours as well. Murder, being the ultimate crime reflects our fear of death and our desire to see moral retribution. It is part of the human condition to understand the world around us and from this desire stems an existential anxiety and a fear of the arbitrary and inexplicable cruelty of fate. Life is fraught with moral ambiguities. Appropriately the title the skull beneath the skin refers to the fact that death…

Another aspect of the tour was the near eastern antiquities from Iran, Mesopotamia and the Levant.…
