Shining! Tips for a Free Trip to Saipan

1. Northern Tour? Renting a Car is the Answer! 😉

If you're confident in driving and traveling with two or more people, there's no need to book a tour. Just rent a car and follow this route: Bird Island - (Kalabera Cave) - Banzai Cliff - Korean Peace Memorial Tower and Japanese Last Command Post - Suicide Cliff.

2. Managaha and Grotto Require Tour Operators 🤝

Managaha Island requires a boat ride, so you'll need a tour operator. As for Grotto, locals don't allow entry without a guide, so hiring a tour operator is necessary. There are many online reviews about disputes over entry or hiring guides on-site.

3. How About a Self-Guided Starlight Tour? 🌟

If your goal is to enjoy the countless stars in the night sky rather than taking photos, 'Suicide Cliff' is highly recommended. While the entrance may be noisy, just walk a bit further inside for a quiet spot with a great view of the stars. Bring a spacious mat for lying down comfortably! On the other hand, Banzai Cliff, located at a high altitude, lacks streetlights, making nighttime driving challenging.
