macjep,
eto ang alternative-more hassle-more expensive-yet-scenic route...that is if ayaw mo magvia samar leyte route....been plying this route so many times with my vehicle before....
Origin:Manila
1. Take SLEX exit batangas
2. around 6-8 km (i think) from SLEX exit, take right to STAR tollway
3. direcho na yung STAR dun sa batangas city port (dati kasi via lipa-sto. tomas)
4. upon exit ng STAR toll, direcho ka lang pagdating mo ng intersxn then follow the winding road to the roro port. select ka n lng ng shipping depende s sked going to calapan...ingat ka baka romblon o abra de ilog, occ mindoro masakyan mo. fastest ang montenegro lines among others... with regards to safety, i'm not sure as per the previous december accidents. to be safe, buy your personal lifejacket for you and your family.
5. pagdating ng calapan, land travel (about 1.5 hours at >100 km/h speeds) to roxas port southern mindoro. board ka ng ferry to caticlan.
6. kung gabihin ka ng dating sa caticlan, you may check sa mga mini hotels dun unless gusto mo magbora.
7. land travel to dumangas port, iloilo (via aklan-capiz >4hrs, via antique ganun din) less travelled lang kasi ang antique pero maganda na daan dun kesa capiz prov.
8. upon reaching dumangas port, board a ferry to bacolod city
9. land travel bacolod to san carlos via murcia or northern bacolod...or via kabankalan-mountain road to a port located a town before dumaguete. i forgot the town's name. so meron kang two options to get to cebu from negros. 1. ferry via san carlos-toledo 2. ferry via yung port sa town before dumaguete going to southern cebu.
You need to bring OR & CR for registration sa coast guard at shipping line...ipaxerox mo na rin.
Expenses:approximate P10k plus for ferry rides only. wala pa meals and lodging mo....magastos ano. check mo na lng sa website ng montenegrolines. hindi sila nagkakalayo with other ferries. plus tip sa taga ferry or port kung gusto mo na isingit ka nila. hehehe... done this many times.
Importante may map ka rin. Food and water syempre. Magdala ka rin ng karelyebong driver kung meron. Do not make any unnecessary stopovers especially on lonely highways umaga man o gabi. sa mga gas station ka na lng or sa mataong lugar.
Duration of travel: approx. 2 days din kung tuloy tuloy ang byahe at natyempuhan mo ang sked ng ferry
haba no.hehe

June 18th, 2012 03:33 PM #13Mga sir, I am bringing home a care from Manila to Cebu and thinking of driving using the shortest route. Any update on the notorious road conditions in Samar? Nag-improve na ba? Or has anyone done this leg recently?
WOuld appreciate any info that will greatly help like departure time ng mga roro and costs. Again, from Cebu to Manila po ang direction ko.
Thanks in advance.

you can by-pass mindoro already
2Go has just opened a roro ferry service direct from batangas to caticlan (panay)
i heard that it is a 10 hour boat trip but at least you dont have to drive from calapan to roxas in mindoro anymore

Buhay na buhay ang BGC this evening. Bukas halos lahat ng restaurants. Sabi pa nung isang cashier...
Traffic!
