Keep reading to find out more about the Genesis Bus Terminals and their respective Baguio and Baler routes.
How to get to Genesis Bus Terminal Pasay
The Genesis Bus Terminal Pasay is located right next to Giselle’s Park Plaza. Their main office is also within the vicinity. To get there, you may take the LRT-1 train until EDSA station or the MRT train until Taft station. Whichever you choose, it’ll only be a short walk to get to the Genesis Bus Terminal Pasay. If you’re coming from the Mall of Asia, take a Libertad or Pasay Rotonda jeep from the MOA circle and ask to be dropped off at Taft.
How to get to Genesis Bus Terminal Cubao
Similarly, commuting to the Genesis Bus Terminal Cubao involves taking a train. Ride the LRT-2 or the MRT rail until Araneta Center Cubao station. Make your way to New York Street at the corner of EDSA. It’s a long walk though, so it might be better to take a tricycle if you have a lot of bags.
Manila to Baler
The Manila to Baler route is available only from Cubao. Regular buses start operating from 3:00 AM until 7:30 AM at approximately one-hour intervals. Genesis Bus’ more premium coach is the Joy Bus which leaves at 11:00 PM, 12:00 AM, 1:00 AM, and 5:30 AM. Brace yourself for a six-hour ride. But since the departure times are quite late in the night, you’ll probably just sleep through your commute! Manila to Baler has a more limited schedule, guarantee your seats by booking online.
Baler to Manila
Once you’ve had your share of sand and surf, it’s time to go home. From Sabang Beach, hire a tricycle to take you to the bus terminal bound for Manila. You will have the option to ride until Genesis Bus Terminal Cubao or Pasay. The earliest trip begins at 4:30 AM, with succeeding trips at 11:00 AM, 1:00 PM, 2:00 PM, and 3:30 PM.
