Summary: Excellent tour! Probably the best way to see and learn about Bataan during WW2. Our tour guide and driver were very savvy and knowledgeable. They were also very accommodating and picked us up in Quezon.

Summary: John Carlos is a very well-informed guide, knows the history thoroughly, and there are many dates, names and figures to recount. He's an excellent driver, and there are many hidden sites to visit on the long peninsula. John is polite, very personable, and a great guide. We learned so much about this important and tragic history and the brave legacy of the Filipino and American soldiers and civilians.
