Robert HIt was very easy and uncomplicated. I might have been able to find a way to navigate the unfathomable chaos of Filipino transport, but travelling with the company meant I didn't have to. I could just enjoy the ride.

Michael BUnfortunately the 12go booking web site is a disaster. If you book an infant you get charged an adult fare even though under 3yo are free.
The other fare information on the 12go web site is also incorrect. 12go insist on a no refund policy even though their web site is the cause of the problem requiring a refund.
Si-Kat staff went beyond normal good service to assist and correct the error.

Ryan GWe took the minibus as there weren't enough passengers to justify the coach and the driver was just driving unnecessarily fast. Kids felt car sick the whole way and just wasn't a relaxing journey.

Ranjani RIt was a van, not a bus so seats weren't very comfortable for my partner who tall.
At the port, the guide who had our tickets for the ferry told us to give our bags to the porter so we thought it was included but it wasn't so beware of using the porter service if you don't want to pay an additional 300php. The ferry was comfortable and we arrived on time to the final destination.
