The drive, typically 25-35 minutes, is a pleasant introduction to Busuanga’s landscape.

Transport Quality and Comfort
The vehicle itself is described as air-conditioned and clean, crucial features for making your journey comfortable, especially after a long flight. The space for luggage is generous, with each person allowed one bag up to 20kg included in the fare.
