I've been wanting to go see Corrigador. I've been cooped up in Manila for almost two years so I need to get out.

Anybody want to go...?

NB: no gays or ladyboys, really. Can't handle that stuff! Otherwise, guys or gals is fine....maybe we can even get a group together. My understanding is that there's a ferry that leaves from Pier 2 and/or 15....and that's all I know. I'm starting to do some research now.

I just read on Wikitravel that tours from the Manila harbor out to Corrigador cost $40. That seems high. I thought somebody told me it could be done for around 1,000 pesos.

The tours include the boat ride, tour of the site, lunch and then the boat ride back.

Does $40 (around 2,000 Pesos, right?) sound right?

In further examination, I think that's the only price there is. It seems that there's nobody actually 'living on' the island, so....it's not like just another 'place' you can go to and look around. It's the tour..or nothing. I'd still like to see it.

Hello guys! Wish i could join you but I just went here last Nov. I have included a link of Corregidor information for your convenience though this includes the rate and the whole itinerary of the tour. just be sure to request an English speaking tour guide when you book as some tour guide will speak the local language during the tour hope that helps! You guys enjoy http://www.corregidorphilippines.com/packages.html

This is btw the actual tour coordinator for Corregidor.
