What are the Bus Classes & Prices of Penafrancia Tours?
The price of your bus trip will depend both on the destination and the class of your ticket. Note that not all ticket classes are available on certain routes yet for longer trips there is almost always a good choice of options. Opt for a sleeper coach for the most convenient overnight trip. Sleeper buses are usually equipped with berths or soft reclining seats, feature an onboard toilet and your ticket may also include other perks like snacks or even a lunch. Taking a night bus is also a good idea if you want to save on your hotel room. During the day an express service is often the best value for money as it makes less stops than an ordinary or standard class bus and travels faster. On some routes it may be crucial to choose the right class as, say, an ordinary or second class bus may need some 6 hours to cover the distance the first class or express bus travels in two hours!
Pros & Cons of Bus Travel
Pros of Bus Travel
-
Buses usually boast the widest network of destinations covered. They travel to the places you cannot get to by plane or even by train
-
Travelling by bus is easy – there is no need to arrive to the bus terminal much in advance, and the check-in is usually a very fast formality opposite to air travel
-
Bus tickets are very affordable. Yes, there are costly first class or VIP options but is you are on a budget, bus is the first means of transportation you have to think about
-
At the same time, there are different classes of service to suit any budget. If you are after a higher level of comfort, buses get you covered, too.
Cons of Bus Travel
-
Intercity bus terminals can be located outside the city centre in the outskirts. It means you will need to calculate extra time and money to get there. In certain destinations getting from the bus terminal can cost you more than you would expect because only a limited number of transportation companies is allowed to serve the route – and prices may be inflated.
-
During busy weekends or high season buses serving some tourist destinations may run out of schedule and require advanced booking.
-
While buses are not as weather dependent as ferries, bus trips can also be delayed or cancelled due to bad weather or road conditions – keep it in mind if travelling during certain seasons or to certain destinations.

JOVENTINO BOne of the lady in the cashier when asked politely if we can leave our baggage for a while since we arrived early and have to eat nearby, she was very inconsiderate and very rude on how she responded when she can in fact answer in a more humane manner.

Ericson OYour drivers are picking random passengers along the way which accumulates total of 13 hours trip vs supposedly 8 hrs trip! It’s completely a very uncomfortable trip!!! Your CR stinks!

Francis AThe seat assigned to us was near the CR. I expected to be assigned at a premium location. Also, I did not expect that we’ll be seated in a 2x2 row which we expected the bus to have 2x1 rows only.

LEONOR Cseated on the last seat #24, cannot fully recline the seat (20%) and the engine noise is at its best in the rear part of the bus. Was my first time and I'm really disappointed

Virnelli MLoved the recliner seat, it was way more comfortable than the typical seats that you see on a bus, and that helps when you're on a 10-hour trip. Just wish there was Wi-Fi too since it says on the trip description that there's Wi-Fi access. Was told by the conductor that it's not available, but it's not a big deal.

Theresa JI moved a seat bc I was seated right next to a stranger. Then after moving, I was being charged extra 1000 by the driver, but the other one was charging me 500. They were most probably asking me for a bribe just because I moved a seat. I was asked for that charge after the trip not before moving seats.

Jane MMy husband left his wallet at the bus. When I called Turbina Office, the tender / officer is very attentive to her phone to take the call and provided me the cp# of the drivers buddy and eventually got the cp# of the driver of Z2 bus. The driver then requested his supervisor to check if there was a wallet left at #34 #35. He found it and gave to the driver which the driver then turned over to the Bicol Isarog office at Tabaco City since my husband will claim the wallet Thank you for your help! Keep it up Penafrancia Staff!

Thea Fthe trip took a longer time than expected because a lot of road under construction. However, you have to improve your waiting area. it's really small and no proper seat for everyone. Good thing it's not raining during the time we are waiting to board the bus. Either you have a place where people can leave their belongings or improve the area where people can wait for their respective buses.

MARIA RI don't get what I'm expected seat that I saw online but I skipped the line in paying tickets in the terminal. The online had higher price than buying in the terminal because of additional charges. My rate is 3 because of the advantage and disadvantages on booking online.

Analyn MWhen booking the trip online, I was not able to choose the seat number and I haven't seen any option to do so. I just saw my seat number right after I booked it and when I called in to try to change my seat number, I was told that I won't be able to change it because it was already booked. Still I would give 4 stars because of the convenience and cleanliness of the bus. It was a comfortable trip after all.
