Commuting in the Philippines – Foreigner’s Guide to Manila P2P Buses

Off to Manila and don’t know what to ride? Or are you in Manila and hate commuting, the traffic and pollution? Good news! There are Manila P2P Buses. P2P stands for Point to Point, so from one place (mostly terminals or malls) you can get to another, in a safe comfortable air-conditioned bus.

You can also log-in to their website to know the nearest bus station near you and if how many people are waiting. Plus, you can send your location to your loved ones so that they will know where you are. More P2P buses are what the Philippines should aim for; faster, safer, more convenient to passengers too.

Here is the list of P2P Stations:

Those are the schedules and fairs of the P2P Buses; you can pay via cash or beep card! It’s really a safe and more convenient choice especially for solo travelers where paying for a single taxi is too costly. If you are a daily commuter, you could also avoid pollution and look fresh at school or work if you ride the P2P buses. Foreigners and people from other parts of the Philippines will find this useful too, as there are direct P2P buses to major airports and popular malls.

Don’t forget that if you go to the P2P website, you could also see the estimated count of passengers and check if you can quickly line there without much waiting time. You can also share your location with your family and friends especially if it’s night. Try riding a Manila P2P bus when you are in Metro Manila – it’s a comfortable and safe way to travel. Happy travels!
