What to expect

Explore the sights around Saipan's shores on this two hour guided tour that lets you visit some of its historic spots. Starting with a pickup right from your hotel, you will first head to The Last Command Post Park, which featured in the Battle of Saipan during World War II. You'll learn about the deep, tragic history of the park, where the last days of the battles in the Pacific reached their end. Following this, you'll depart for Bird Island, which can be seen from above, but is much more worthwhile being visited on foot. A well known destination for tourists, the place is aptly named for thousands of birds that reside within it, in a myriad of local species. Then it's off to the Grotto, one of the most scenic areas in Saipan, which is famous as one of the top scuba diving areas in the world. Its clear waters beneath a natural “skylight” of rocks attracts tourists from all over the world, urging them to dive into this gorgeous swimming hole. Your last stop is at historic Banzai Cliff, named after the tragic events that took place upon it during the war as well, and is a beautiful place to capture panoramas of the shore. Your tour ends with a return transfer safely back to your hotel.

The driver came on time. He was from China and spoke Mandarin. He took us to all the places as listed. He is more of a driver than a tour guide.

Went to most of the checkpoints in Saipan’s North. Bird Island where you see layers of colours of the sea. The last command place to learn about history. Banzai Cliff to remember the death of the Japanese soldiers. The Grotto is super busy, cant really see much if u dont go scuba diving there as blue light is the main attraction point.

The gentleman who is accompanying is very careful. It will also speak Chinese very eloquently and narrate the characteristics of the attractions. Recommended trip

In fact, the whole event does not need a full two hours, because the attractions and attractions are not far away. The car is very comfortable and the driver has a story about some attractions in the sights. In addition, it is recommended that you can take the "Blue Hole" attraction in the KLOOK itinerary. It is necessary to walk more than 100 stairs, because not everyone can accept it. If you know it, you may be scared.
