| Local and
foreign tourists visit Corregidor almost the whole year round,
except during typhoons and inclement weather conditions. Sun
Cruises, a tour company operating from the old Hoverferry terminal
near the Cultural Center of the Philippines Complex along Roxas
Boulevard, provides ferry services to Corregidor. Its booking
office can be contacted at 831-8140 or 834-6857. The cost of
the tour includes roundtrip ferryboat transfers, shrine and terminal
fees, guided island tour, and lunch. There is a scheduled trip
that departs from Manila daily at 8:00 a.m. and arrives in Corregidor
a little over an hour. The air-conditioned ferryboat is clean,
well maintained, and operated by an efficient and reliable crew
who follow an on-time arrival and departure schedule. Onboard
the boat are pretty female stewardesses who look into the needs
and comfort of the passengers. |
