Ceres Liner Bus
The Ceres Liner bus company runs between Cebu city and Dumaguete 4 times a day.
Your bus takes a short hop on a ferry between the islands of Cebu and Negros.
There is an additional fare of about 50 peso for boat trip.
You get off the bus for the trip across the open water and sit in the upper deck on the boat.
It is a fairly quick crossing and you don’t have to worry about making a bus connection once you are across the water.

Hi! Can I invite you to the Flickr group Philippine Ship Spotters Society and post your photos there? Thanks.
Can you pls post the exact schedule departure of ceres from cebu to bacolod daily and vice versa including the fares? Thnaks
Hi Ronald,
I don’t have the information that you want on hand.
That is a very basic run, however.
dp
CELES Lines has an office in Batangas
my biyahe po ba ngaung dec. 26, 2009 cebu to dumaguete?
Hi jaymari,
I am pretty sure they are running on the 26th but call just to verify.
phone 035 4170280 , 4196023
dp
how much is the fare in ferry from iligan to cebu?
Hello winaflor,
Ceres Lines do not operate in Mindanao (which is where Iligan is)
Rural Transit is the bus liner that runs Mindanao and there are no buses from Iligan to Cebu.
http://www.dutchpickle.com/philippines/mindanao/rural-transit-bus-lines.html
The easiest way to get from Iligan to Cebu is to take a Rural Transit bus to Dipolog and then take a tricycle to the port of Dapitan, Mindanao.
You will hop across the bay on the Ozamis to Mukas ferry.
http://www.dutchpickle.com/philippines/mindanao/ozamis-to-mukas-ferry-mindanao.html
In Dapitan get a ticket on any of the 4 ferries making the run to Dumaguete on Negros.
http://www.dutchpickle.com/philippines/mindanao/dumaguete-to-dipolog.html
From Dumaguete you can get a bus direct to Cebu City. The fare will include a short ferry hop from Negros to Cebu Island.
Its not a difficult trip but get an early start so you can get to Cebu at a reasonable hour.
cheers
dp
may i know what is the new tel.no of ceres bus lines cuz’the old tel.no is no longer connected
Naa lang koy usa ka pangutana. Tag pila man ang biyahe gikan sa Cebu padulong sa Dumaguete via ferry?
Hello AJ
I never took the ferry from Cebu to Dumaguete so am not sure.
It is quicker to take the bus from Cebu to Dumaguete The bus follows the coast to Bato, (in southern Cebu) where it makes the short hop on the Maayo ferry across to Negros Island and then proceeds to the city of Dumaguete.
I don’t have the current fare but it used to run about 250 pesos.
dp
thanks a lot for all the info! you are helping many people with all your posts.. more power!
Hello jeyn,
Cheers!
