Thing is, many people unfortunately think Negros Oriental and Dumaguete are synonymous. Actually, Dumaguete is just the capital city of Neg.Or. (Blame it on bad tourism, in my opinion)

Mas known pa ang Dumaguete nga word kaysa Negros Oriental. When you say Bohol or Cebu, nagrefer na cya sa whole island, ergo daghan nga towns and cities. When you say Dumaguete, ang city ra man na. What about the other spots like Valencia, Sibulan, San Jose, Bais, Dauin, Siaton, and others?

Ok, I'm done with ranting. There are lots of great places to visit in Negros. Unfortunately, even though it was my hometown, I haven't been to many of these places. Sige lang, magtiis usa ug pangwarta diri sa Sugbu, then after that I'm touring every tourist spot there. Kinsa gusto mu join?

Sakto jud na ako suhito kay thrice a year adto ko bais cant miss to go there every year dumaguete is such a nice place and bais sad. IF NAA GANAHAN DIRE KUYOG NYA TA NINYO TOUR NATO DUMAGUETE TO BAIS ESPECIALLY APO ISLAND, THE LAKE BALINSASAYAW, MABINAY SPRING AND THE CAVES THERE, WHALE WATCHING and many places to go.

email me nalang kung kinsa gusto adto before summer ends

How to get to Dumaguete/Negros Or

If daghan ka dala, u can take the night trip sakay og GP (Pier 2). The cheapest fare is P325 na karon and will leave at 10PM. Mga 6 hrs lang man and travel so maabot naka sa Dumaguete Pier by 4AM. Daghan man pedicabs didto na mag-standby so naa lang ka masakyan dayon. The fare of the tricycles are much the same here so ayaw lang mo sugot dayon sa ila i-offer na pakyaw na price. hangyu-a lang gamay. wala rana problema ang mga drivers.Â* buotan rana cla.

if u want a much cheaper na gasto, pwede ka sakay og ceres bus in the morning padulong Bato, Santander. Then isakay raman na ang ceres sa barge.. I think mga P200+ (almost 300) ang imo mabayran tanan kay after maabot ang barge sa Amlan, diretso man dayon na ang Ceres padulong Dumaguete. So dire-diretso ra imo byahe. di naka magna-og2x pirmi. Ang last trip sa barge is around 1AM adn will take u around 30-40 mins on sea. The ceres travels mga 3-4 hrs (depende kung pirmi hunong-hunong). Ang first trip sa Ceres is mga 4AM.

If u want something na cheaper pa gyud (mas preferred if wala kaau ka dala), you can take a ceres bus gyapon padulong Santander pero na-og lang ka sa Lilo-an (3 hrs gyapon ang travel). Then sakay ka pedicab (P5 per head) nila padulong sa ila warf. Then sakay ka og motorized boat/pumpboat for 20 mins which will cost you P37. After maabot ang pumpboat sa Sibulan, sakay lang ka multicab padulong Dumaguete (P8.50). Pero if dili ka ganahan Ceres, pwede gyapon V-hire imo sakyan padulong Lilo-an, Santander. This will cost u mga P120 na cguro ron. Pero ihatod gyud ka ani nila sa warf.

I'm a Dumagueteña!! Proud to be one! Hope this info helps...

Oops, I forgot to mention this. Didto diay ka sakay og Ceres sa South Bus Terminal. While ang v-hire kay sa Citilink. Ang fare sa Ceres bus is P127 for aircon (this month pa ni nga price) and mga around P118 ang dili aircon. Ang first trip is at 4AM gyapon. Same sa v-hire. Nice kung mag-travel ka this way kay tsada kaau ang mga lugar na imo maagi-an sa south sa Cebu. Really nice places.
if u take the last option, make sure u leave sa South Bus before 2PM kay ang last trip sa pumpboat is 5PM.

PAHABOL: Naa pa gyud mas barato! Ceres lang imo sakyan dayon paguyod na lang ka sa pumpboat.. hehehe!

same sa Bacolod... The reason could be is masyado mahaba yung word na "Negros Oriental", pati yung "Negros Occidental" kaya sasabihin na lang nila yung Capital City... or dun na lang sa pinaka progressive na City

same as Baguio City - Benguet...
