How do I get from Bacolod-Silay airport to Dumaguete?

About 6.5 to 7 hours by private car for the roughly 210 to 230 km via Mabinay: 30 to 40 minutes from the airport, then the cross-island drive of about 6 hours. By shuttle and Ceres bus, allow 7 to 8 hours with the terminal change.

There is no direct hop between BCD and Dumaguete-Sibulan (DGT), so any flight routes back through Cebu or Manila and takes most of a day. If your itinerary allows it, flying straight into DGT is the simplest option; if not, the overland crossing is the practical one and we will quote a comfortable private car for it.

Yes. In a private car the stops are yours to choose, and most people take a proper lunch break around the halfway mark near Kabankalan or Mabinay. Put it in the "Stops along the way" field on the quote form and it is in the plan from the start. Tell us if anyone in the group is prone to carsickness and your driver will pace the hill section accordingly.

If your flight leaves you no morning option, the crossing still works - it is just a different drive, and the airport leg is on top of the cross-island run rather than part of it. Tell us the flight and we will work back from it. What changes after dark is that the unlit Mabinay hill section is slower and harder on anyone prone to carsickness, and that the Bulwang caves halfway stop is no longer worth building in, because the daylight through the cave roof is the whole point of it. If the choice is open to you, an overnight at the airport end and a rested start is the more comfortable trip; if it is not, say so in the quote request and we will plan the night run properly rather than treat it as a daytime transfer.

Yes. The same private car and driver, the other way round over the same ~210-230 km. Send us your flight time with the quote request and we work the pickup back from it, so you reach Bacolod-Silay Airport (BCD) with time to spare instead of guessing. Most people book both legs at once. If the way back ends somewhere other than where you started, say where in the Anything else? box on the quote form and we quote that leg instead of the reverse of this one.

Usually yes. There is no minimum notice on this route and no cut-off hour, so a request for tomorrow, or for later today, is worth sending rather than writing off. What settles it is whether a vetted driver is free for the time you need, and you will have the answer and the price by email the same day, usually within a few hours. An early start is routine here rather than a complication. The part that gets harder with less notice is choice - holding a particular vehicle size or an exact pickup hour - not whether the journey can happen, so send the date and, if the timing is tight, the hour you need to be moving.

Nothing to ask for a quote. Once you are happy with the price it is two steps, not a choice between two: a booking fee paid online (card, bank transfer or GCash) confirms the trip and is what gets you your written confirmation, then the balance goes directly to your driver at the end of the journey. The fee is part of the all-in figure you agreed rather than an extra on top of it, and your quote states it before you pay. Free cancellation more than 72 hours before pickup refunds the fee in full.
