Manila Travel Forum

Hello, I need help.
I will be touching down at Clark and my hotel is 2 hours away'Crazy eh. I did not do my homework. Could you advise me the cheapest or budgeted way to travel from Clark to downtown Manila?

My flight is this friday and I desperately need an answer. I'm Brendan from Singapore. Cheers fellas.

There is a bus station just outside the airport - getting to Manila will cost only about 100+ pesos and about 1.5 to 2 hours depending on traffic.

Hello Victor.

Thanks. What is the frequency of the buses that operates to Manila? Is there a time schedule?

Cheers,

Brendan

There are now 2 bus lines operating between Clark and Manila. Philtranco and Partas. Philtranco charges P300/pax one way if you will get off at SM Megamall and P350/pax if you get off in Pasay City. I have no idea of the fare if you will take Partas as they just opened this line recently.

schedule of philtranco is usually right when the flight arrives.

check their website: www.philtranco.com.ph

where in downtown manila is your hotel? You can take the direct bus from the airport to end of the mrt line in pasay and take a taxi from there to your hotel. If you want a cheaper way, then from clark airport, go to the central bus terminal in Dau, about 4 kms from the gate of clark and wait for the buses going to manila. Depending on the time of the day, the frequency may be every 15 mins to 1 hour at the most and 150 pesos max.fare from the bus terminal to manila. As to which bus to take f4rom the central bus terminal, it would be dependent on the location of your hotel.
