PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION TO GET AROUND MANILA

Public transportation, public transit, or mass transit) is 

Transport of passengers by group travel systems available for 

Use by the general public, typically managed on a schedule, 

Operated on established routes, and that charge a posted fee 

For each trip

Travel like a local, they say. But if you’re going to do that 

In Manila, brace yourself. You’re in for quite a ride.

Taking public transportation within Metro Manila is 

Unpredictable, to say the least. For first-timers, commuting 

Around Manila requires a great deal of planning.  You have 

Ample of options of public transportation — MRT, LRT, cab, 

Bus, jeepney, tricycle — but none of them guarantee a hassle-

Free public transportation. Manila has so much to offer to 

Tourists, but the problem is getting from one destination to 

Another. The simple truth is, like many third world cities, 

Manila is congested, polluted, and highly disorganized. Except 

For outbound buses, none of these options work around a fixed, 

Reliable schedule. Traffic has been the biggest problem. And 

The rain can make matters much worse.

Take a deep breath, hold your valuables tight, and prepare 

Your soul to be squeezed out of your body! 

General Tips

Here are some things you have to remember before you start 

Exploring.

Rush hours. If your route uses a major thoroughfare like EDSA, 

Commuting during rush hours is not a good idea. These hours 

Are from 7am-10am and 5pm-8pm, when students and workers go to 

Work and school and come home. No, not even the MRT can save 

You from this. All train cars are so packed, it feels like 

Manila is about to go after another world record. As a rule of 

Thumb, either be an early bird or go out at around noon. Lunch 

Time is usually a great time to take public transportation. 

The sun may be a little too much, but there really isn’t much 

Traffic within this period.

Rains and floods. Manila is soaked in floodwater at least once 

A year, and it’s frustrating how this is still not addressed 

Appropriately up to now. But all rants aside, citizens have 

Learned to live with it. (Sucks, I know! Ugh, ranting again.) 

Here’s the bottomline, if it’s been raining heavily all day, 

Chances are that the traffic has built up. Ergo, not a great 

Time to hit the road. Of course, there are exceptions. But to 

Be on the safe (and dry) side, wait it out.

Pickpockets. It is also during the rush hours when evildoers 

Are in their game. The crowdedness and discomfort might 

Distract you from watching your valuables that you won’t have 

Them when you exit the vehicle. Keep your phone or wallets in 

Your front pockets.

If these crazy hours catch you on the road, I suggest that you 

Let it pass. There’s a lot to do in Manila, anyway. Go 

Malling, watch a movie, or kill time at a cafe until the main 

Roads stop being a massive parking lot.
