Best Time to Travel
The best times to travel are mid-morning (10:00 AM - 2:00 PM) or late evening (after 8:00 PM) to avoid the severe peak hour traffic. Avoid morning rush (6:00 AM - 9:00 AM) and evening rush (4:00 PM - 8:00 PM) if possible.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during daylight hours, travelers should be vigilant. 'One-chance' incidents can occur in less crowded public buses, especially late in the evening. Pickpocketing is common at major bus stops like Obalende, CMS, and Mile 2. Avoid traveling late at night using public transport.
