Hello Pinoy mylotters I know most of you are love to travel to provinces like me. So what bus company do you prefer for travelling? For me I prefer Victory liner when going to Olongapo and Baguio. Five star when going to Cabanatuan and lastly Bataan transit when going to Orani Bataan. Those three companies has a good service, nice staffs and they prioritize safety of their passangers.

I always ride Victory Liner when going to Baguio and Olongapo. I was able to try Genesis once when we went to Bataan but again, I prefer Victory Liner more. The staff, conductors and drivers are friendly. I always feel secured with Victory Liner :D
Non-discussion question here... Are you from Bataan or something? My team are planning to have a 3D/2N vacation in Bataan but we're not sure where to go or how much we would need to go there. Maybe you have any idea or something? Please do share it with me if you have one :D Feel free to add and PM me :D

Yes I'm from Bataan and I have also relatives from Cabanatuan and Bicol province. If you are planning a team outing I suggest you should hire a van because it's much cheaper than bus when travelling with your friends. It's only advisable to travel via bus if you are alone.

It really depends on the province that I'm going to. If I'm going to Baguio, I also prefer Victory liner. I also prefer Sierra Madre lines when I'm going to Nueva Ecija. I read an article before that there drivers who are abusing passengers. The bus will leave the terminal and collect the fares. Somewhere in Alabang, the driver and assistant will always say that there is a mechanical issue. Then they will have to wait for the next bus. What will happen is that the passengers will all be transferred to the new bus however since it is already full, they are all standing in the aisle. It is irritating since the travel is up to Lucena, Quezon. It happens a lot of times in one specific transit or liner based Kamuning.

I don't have a preferred bus to ride if I travel alone. For me, the cheaper the better and it should be ordinary since I always travel light and it could get very cold if the bus has airconditioning especially at night. Whenever I travel I used to ask for the lowest fare but if I travel with my family, we only use piltranco. It's more expensive but with kids on tow, it's definitely more convenient.

Riding ordinary bus going to Bicol is also a good experience. I remember when my first time I went to Bicol we ride an ordinary bus, the winds slapping your face especially when they accelerate more faster. If you are riding an ordinary bus I suggest that you should ride in a nissan diesel bus because some of the ordinary buses are made out of scaps which doesn't passed the safety guidelines. All of us likes cheaper fare but safety shouldn't be compromised.

Eversince I travel I always prefer PARTAS bus company because I really feel secured. And maybe this is also the popular buses going to the north and baguio.Also I feel that I am safe and secured that eventhough I will sleep through the whole trip I don't worry that much. Going to the south I prefer Jacliner because same reason feel secured and they have a wifi which can lessen boredom during travel.

Yes Partas is also a good company since they serve many routes around northern and central luzon. I also ride Jac when going to Quezon plus they have free wifi on-board so you can surf while travelling.
