 | Baguio Transportation | Tips 1 - 10 of 24 |  |
by Skye_Miles Except for the immediate downtown area, Baguio City is too big to stroll around. Jeepneys and taxis are available to take you to your hotel, or to provide transport in and around Baguio City. Taxi drivers will swarm you at the bus and air terminals, so it's not a surprise to learn that many also lend their services as tour guides. Locals on hotel-commissions will also descend upon you even before your feet hit the ground, so if you arrive without a hotel reservation, you can tempt fate or, if you're arriving at the airport, you can consult the people over at the tourism information counter.

For Public transportation to Baguio, there are several bus stations. From Manila, you can take a Victory Liner Bus from Cubao (tel. no. 7274534, about P300). From Ilocos Sur, La Union you can take the aircon Partas Bus line (about P200) or any small busses plying the highway (about P60). For those using private cars, you can take the Kennon Road from Rosario, Marcos Highway from Agoo and Naguilian Road from Bauang . Just take care 'cause sometimes it's foggy specially during late afternoon. Sometimes, the highways have minimim visibilty so watch out for the curves. For going around Baguio City, you can always take the ever reliable taxi cabs. The drivers of these cabs are friendly and they' always give back your exact change. You can also take the jeepney which is much cheaper. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

 OMNI Flying School by whvcebu An easy way to go to Baguio is to ask my friend and former flight instructor Capt. Mike Gomez to fly you with a small aircraft. Enquiries please to http://www.omniaviation.com.ph/about.html Leave a Comment

It takes about 6 hours to get to Baguio from Manila. Fare is about 270 per person or $6 / P270 via Victory Liner. The best is to leave manila round 1:00 am and reach Baguio round 6 or 7 am . Leave a Comment Theme: BusPhone: (02)361-1506 (office)

 traffic jam by sweet_sentiments The major roads around Baguio City is jammed with traffic during Baguio's peak seasons ( especially during the Flower Festival) so I advise you to either go to Baguio using public transpo or just avoid the major streets. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Baguio to Asin Hotspring merong route ng jeep going in and out of asin. i am not pretty sure where the terminal is, but you can always ask folks around, the town's folk i mean, and not the tourists (since there are many in baguio). the previous terminal, believe, is near the market. it is at the back of city hall, there's a road leading to the market. i dont know if it is still there. take the jeepney ride since it is cheaper and you get to experience the ride. the people won't eat anyway. =) so enjoy your trip. along the way to Asin, you will see lots and lots of shops of wood carvings. the folks there can speak english and iloco. they are not pretty trained to speak tagalog but they will understand you. before leaving the jeepney going to the hotspring, you better ask the driver what time is the last trip going back to Baguio (remember, you are in Asin, Benguet ... =) if you prefer to go home before the day ends...

In Baguio, you'll see a number of friendly mega taxi drivers who instantly become your tour guide. Try asking their opinion for places to go to and they'd gladly bring you there. Plus, if you are lucky enough, they might even have folk stories (whether legendary or spooky) about it. As you pass by some spots, ask your friendly driver to tell you about it and politely ask him where you are. TIP: get a map of baguio and check out the routes so you have an idea. Maps are available at the local bookstore. You'd find them in gasoline stations too. Theme: Other

You wouldn't worry riding taxis in Baguio. Aside from the fact that the fare is a lot cheaper, drivers don't take advantage of the tourists. They only ask for the exact fare and will really give your change no matter how small it is. Who said nobody is trustworthy anymore? Leave a Comment Theme: Other

From Victory Liner Cubao Station to Baguio, ordinary bus ticket cost at P380 + P5 for the insurance which will total of P385. We failed to get a De Luxe bus because tickets are all sold out. A ticket for a De Luxe bus will cost P600. The difference between the two was A De Luxe bus guarantees a five-hour trip, not the usual seven for the ordinary one. Ordinary buses will stop TWICE/THRICE for a meal and in every town to drop off or pick up new passengers. Victory Liner leave Manila every hour, seven (7) days a week.
