How do I get to Moalboal from Mactan-Cebu Airport?

There’s no direct public bus, but a private transfer goes straight from the airport to your Moalboal hotel in about 3-3.5 hours - the simplest option after a flight, at any hour.

Roughly 3-3.5 hours for the ~100 km, including crossing off Mactan island and routing past Cebu City to the south coastal road.

Yes, and here is the arithmetic rather than just the reassurance. We meet any hour including the small hours, and we hold the driver against your real landing time. What decides your night is the sum: landing, plus about an hour to clear immigration and collect a bag at Terminal 2 (less on a domestic arrival at Terminal 1, which has no immigration queue), plus the drive. So a 10:30 PM international landing has you on the road about 11:30 PM, and every drive time quoted on this site is measured from the arrivals exit, not from the wheels touching down. Two things worth doing before you book: tell your accommodation the hour you will actually arrive rather than the hour you land, because a small-hours check-in is the part that most often goes wrong; and if the far end has a morning gate, consider a night near the airport or in Cebu City instead, since arriving at 3:00 AM for a 6:00 AM start costs you the sleep and buys you nothing. Send the flight number with your quote request and we will tell you plainly which of those two your trip is.

Yes - the same private car and driver, the other way round over the same ~100 km. Send us your flight time with the quote request and we work the pickup back from it, so you reach Mactan-Cebu Airport (CEB) 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. If a flight ends the trip as well as starting it, the form holds one flight number - put the other one in the Anything else? box with its date and time, and we time that pickup to the check-in.

The quote is one fixed all-in price for the trip, agreed in writing before you travel, and fuel, tolls and parking are inside it - along with any waiting time or extra stops you tell us about when you ask. What stays separate is what you would choose anyway: entrance, activity and boat fees at the places you stop, your meals, and your accommodation. We do not invent activity prices, so those you pay directly on the ground.

One fixed all-in price for the journey, agreed in writing before you travel, with fuel, tolls, parking and waiting time already inside it. If it would help you decide, ask and we will also quote the alternatives next to it - a larger vehicle against two smaller ones for a group that is on the edge of a van, or the road leg quoted on its own where part of your journey crosses water you are booking yourself. On a trip of several legs we will price them individually as well as together if you want to see where the cost sits. Entrance, activity and boat fees at the places you stop stay outside our figure and are paid locally, and we never mark them up. Say how you want it broken up in the box marked "Anything else?".

The drive, the driver and the waiting time are ours and they are in the quote. Whatever is sold at the far end is bought there: whale-shark watching is registered in person at the Oslob desk and cannot be booked ahead by us or by anyone, canyoneering is booked on the day with the licensed Alegria operators, and falls entrances and the Moalboal environmental fee are paid at the gate. The exception is Sumilon, where the day-use pass must be reserved with the resort before you travel. So the thing worth getting right in the quote is the arrival time rather than a reservation, and that is the part we plan. Say which activity you are going for in the box marked "Anything else?" and the pickup is timed back from its window.

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. A very 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 up to 72 hours before pickup refunds the fee in full.

You do not need it to get a quote on this run, and most people asking for it do not have one yet. Give us the date and roughly when you expect to land or take off and we will quote it and time the drive from that, because the drive time on this page is measured from the arrivals exit rather than from the landing. Send the flight number by reply when the ticket is issued and we set the pickup to that flight, and from then on we watch the arrival so a delay moves the pickup instead of costing you the car. Retiming it that way is confirmed subject to driver availability rather than automatic, which is why it is worth sending as soon as you have it rather than on the day.

Yes, and on an airport run it is the one thing worth saying in the quote request rather than at the kerb. We fit child seats, but they are arranged in advance rather than carried as standard, so arrivals is the worst place to find out one is missing. Philippine law (RA 11229) sets the requirement by height rather than age: a child needs a restraint until they reach 150 cm, and the seat has to suit their age, height and weight, so one generic seat does not cover a family of different sizes. It also changes which vehicle meets you, because a child seat occupies a seat and a folded stroller travels as luggage - a family of four with two seats and a pushchair wants a van rather than a sedan even though it is only four people. You are welcome to bring your own seat and it still counts as luggage when we size the vehicle. Tick "We need a child seat" on the quote form and put the ages, heights and weights in "Anything bulky?" - that is what decides which seats we fit.
