japanese tunnel

The tour is short and quick, but I guess one that would really pique the interest of history buffs. Since its just a short tour, it would be a good idea to include this in your itinerary.

Why an entrance fee? Okay, it's a historical place - the tunnel has always interested me. But the food? Forget the restaurant.

For a 50php fee, I suppose it was pretty alright. The tour was kinda short since the owner was only able to purchase and preserve about 100m or the actual tunnel. But I'd say it's the most important part of the tunnel. If you're into history, it's a good place to go to. Tour guide would tell you the stories of what went on there. Although the tourguides do not seem to be well-versed of the actual history, they can at least provide an overview to make you a bit interested on the events.

During the WW2 the Japanese occupied this part of Mindanao specifically in Davao City and the suburb. The tunnel interest us. to make a comparison of the Cu Chi tunnel in Vietnam. This one is just a tunnel with some other few stops. The entrance/reception area is nice with some landscaped portion. There is the hotel too and the restaurant.

Very interesting place to go. (If only I can continue walking until I reach the other end of the tunnel. I'm curious on how far the tunnel is and where it will lead me. People can always say the distance, but it would be nice if you will really see and experience it by yourself. They have accommodations, swimming pool and restaurant. If you're laid back, this is a place for you.

Not really all much to see but it is historically intersting.For the small P50 fee or whatever it is now... I mean really just over $1.25 you get to walk down a WW2 Japanese tunnel.The little restaurant is ok for a quick snack...

I visited with a friend from UK. A guide walked us through the tunnel which I guess is about 200m in length. It is well lit with a cement floor, and in places you have to duck as the roof is low. But there is precious little to see, and the guide could not tell us a great deal about the history or purpose of the tunnel during WW2. So, rather disappointing. But for 50 Pesos, probably worth calling in if you are passing through on the CP Garcia highway.

Nothing much to see, just a short tunnel but well kept with some interesting stories associated with it. Backpackers and tourists who wanted more important attractions to visit may find the place boring, but for a family who needs bonding or a romantic couple who don't have myriad of activities in their itinerary, it is a 'nice to know' place where everyone will enjoy - not the tunnel per se (but) - the amenities offered in this family resort. Located at Balusong Extension (diversion road going to the airport) Hillcrest Subdivison in Matina District, it is a bit far from the city. Jeepney ride may be difficult but taxis are readily available.

Japanese tunnel in Davao city is an interesting place esp.those who valued WW2 stories & landmarks..well lighted & well kept, no urine stench nor spooky images.

It was pretty much a waste of time. The guide was clueless as well as the front desk. Typical Filipino incompetence.

The 50-peso tour is a bit short. The tour guide was just fine. Interesting story of the tunnel. Nothing to see much. Just 3-5 spots inside.

As it has a privat owner not much of the original tunnel can be visited. As it rained, it was interesting to discover, that the water went through the stones. Got wet in the tunnel.Had pitty with the men who had to stay there for their duty. Never ever could it be comfortable.Besides the tunnel is a good restaurant.

The Japanese tunnel is apiece of history. The tunnel was built during one of the world wars by prisoners and served as a base for the Japanese soldiers. The tunnel is apparently quite long but only a short portion of it is open to the public for safety reasons. The guide was great sharing her knowledge of the site. Over all the experience was impressive. We decided to stay in the hotel because the staff on duty at the front desk was very helpful.On our last day the staff was just awful. It just goes to show how one bad apple can ruin a good experience. I asked if she could call cebu pacific because I wanted to take durian home with me.She gave me the phone and telephone directory. That did not help me since I was not familiar with the place.I went to the small office at the back thinking they could help me. They promised to call cebu pacific themselves and they would inform me of the results.They called to inform me it was not possible.Guys it can be done. You can take durian with you on the plane if it is placed in a container that is properly sealed. For your information.

Get a bit of history and close encounter with the balinsasayaw. Tunnel is quite short since most of it is no longer safe for viewing.

a very short tunnel.. nothing much to see yet a lot to learn .I think 50php entrance fee is too much for this low-maintenance attraction.
