    OMG, 1st time mo mag drive sa north, all the way to Vigan pa? That's a looong drive ha -- mga 8-10 hours! Just head on out toward marcos highway but keep on going instead of turning right. Be careful of trikes, kuligligs, and especially fatigue!

    This is the best advice! Get a map and plan out your trip. I envy you!!! No need to hurry. Stop at La Union enjoy the beach. Go to Vigan then head straight to Pagudpud - I have always wanted to do that trip.
    Goodluck and stay safe

    Just follow the NLEX then exit in Sta Ines, Mabalacat straight until you reach Tarlac City then straight until you reach Urdaneta City, Pangasinan then straight until you reach Sison, Pangasinan. You'll see a road going Kennon Rd. but take the left road intead until you reach Agoo, La Union, San Fernando City La, Union then straight until you reach Candon Ilocos Sur, then straight until you reach the town of Bantay Ilocos Sur, then turn left to reach the town proper of Vigan City. It's so easy just follow the major hi-way (Mc Arthur Hiway) where the big bus are passing. More or less you'll be travelling 7-8 hrs. Good luck and safe driving.

    ... if the 8 ~ 10 hour drive from Manila to Vigan is too long for one driver ... and a car full of kids ; please recommend a good place to break the journey and stay overnight.

    thanks.

    road construction ongoing in the following ilocos sur towns:

    candon
    santiago
    san esteban
    sta. maria

    traffic slowdown is expected in those places especially during daytime.
