   Hi jay,

   Thanks for the “heads up”

   Schedules are constantly changing in the Philippines. Do you have the latest one? Thanks

   Note:

   Sea Cat departs from the same pier and make several trips a day too.

   Please check the paper for the most recent schedule. Almost every newspaper in the Philippines has a page dedicated just to ferry schedules.

   ferry story…
   I was planning to take the Roble once a week ferry from Cebu to Catbalogan, Samar. I went down on Thurs to get my ticket and get a bill of lading for my motorbike. The trip was canceled inadvertently for two weeks with no explaination. I had to get home to Samar and decided to take the night trip on Lite Shipping from Cebu to Ormoc and drive home from there. (Its a 6 hour drive) I got my ticket Fri morning and noticed a big sign stating that the trip was scheduled for every day except Friday. Well the Tuesday trip had been canceled because of a signal one typhoon and they made up for it by adding a Friday run.

   That’s the way things are done in the Philippines. I made it to Ormoc around 6pm, stopped at Dunkin Donuts for coffee and got the 35 munchkin special for my girl. Then it was a 6 hour drive through the night in a driving rain on flooded roads. I had my laptop with me too and keeping it dry was my major concern.

   I was happy to have no passengers because it was a tough trip.

   hello,,

   Greetings!

   I am jenny from Cagayan…I always chose Cebu to spend my Holidays but the best part of it is to visit Bohol with my friends and sometimes with my relatives and we always chose weesam express to sail us back and forth because the crew and most especially the stewards are all very welcoming and very friendly….

   More Power and looking forward to sail again with weesam in the future!!!!

   Hello Judy,

   I don’t have that information…

   Always check the newspapers for the latest schedules and routes.

   I still think that taking the express bus – Ceres Liner – is the easiest and quickest public transportation between Cebu and Dumaguete. The Ceres bus takes a ferry between the two islands where they are very close together and that part of the journey takes about a half hour.

   Passengers get off the bus and sit on the upper deck of the ferry on the way across and then get back on the bus after it drives down the ramp to dry land.

   hi!may I know the latest fare of weesam from cebu-tagbilaran-cebu (round trip ticket)? Is there a round trip promo now? Thanks!

    Hi jodie,

    I am not able to keep up with all the current fares and ferry schedules so you will have to contact the ferry office or check the newspapers.

    Almost all the papers have 2 pages dedicated to ferry ads and schedules and will advertise special promo rates too.

    The schedules that I post on the stories were current date I published them however. (Look at the bottom of every page and you will see the publish date)

    Hi lucy,

    Hopefully Weesam will be running a promo rate when you plan to travel but it is unlikely they will give special discounts.

    Please check the local newspaper for the most recent rates and schedules.

    Fares and schedules change on a regular basis and the info on this page is dated.

    Would like to thank the crew of Weesam 8 from Cebu to Tagbilaran for their honesty by keeping the cellphone which my daughter left on the vessel today June 4, 2010 and that unit was retrieved later in the weesam office. Kudos to you All.
