TRAVEL BY SEA TO BORACAY WITH 2GO TRAVEL

Whenever I travel in and out of my home province Polillo Island, Quezon, I travel by sea. So, SEA TRAVEL is something that is not new to me. But I have never been in a big ship and its on my bucket list to be in one.

Finally, I have experienced how fun it is to travel by sea from my recent recent trip to boracay with 2go Travel.

Besides, Caticlan (Boracay) 2go Travel destination includes Bacolod, Cebu, Tagbilaran, Cagayan De Oro, Zamoboanga and many other provinces in the Philippines. My destination is Caticlan (Boracay) onboard their ship called St. Ignatius of Loyola.

THE TICKET

My ticket cost only 1,739.98 for a roundtrip Super Value Class Accommodation to Caticlan (Boracay) from Batangas Port, that includes free meal onboard. I book my ticket thru their website, travel.2go.com.ph. No Credit Card? Don't worry, because you can use your ATM Card to purchase ticket online.

ACCOMMODATION

Traveling by sea may be longer than by plane so, comfort is a top priority. You may choose among their various ACCOMMODATIONS: Super Value, Mega Value, Tourist, Cabin and State. 

I stayed in SUPER VALUE CLASS ACCOMMODATION. Its basically a bunk bed in a non-air conditioned part of the vessel, Bathroom are shared with other passengers. I am sleeping almost the entire trip to Caticlan (Boracay) so, I would say its comfortable enough :) just imagine how comfortable it would be if your staying in their cabin or state accommodation?

FACILITIES

To give their guest their much needed comfort during the long hour of travelling, the ship is equip with various amenities. They have cafe, bar, convenience store, guest lounge and they even have clinic.

2go Travel really made sea travel enjoyable, comfortable and affordable. I would say its affodable luxury, "vacation mode" starts as soon as I step inside the ship.

  1. Hi Sir Wamboy :)
    I found your blog so informative and fun to read :) I even put it as one of my bookmarks :)
    We are planning to go Boracay this May 2014 for the first time and we would sail through 2GO :)
    This post doubles my excitement though :) 2GO's official website does not elaborates the details (I think because it is meant for booking so merely giving just an overview instead) but youre post is somehow so *wink* *wink* *wink*, just forgot the words :) But I truly appreciate it :) Thank you and more powers :)

    PS:

    I am browsing your blog thoroughly :P

  3. Thank you for sharing this information with me! I'm really excited to board on this ship once and for all! I have experienced riding a small bangka to Puerto Galera and I don't find it comfortable. Maybe, if I were to go to Boracay, I would choose to ride 2Go boats. :)
