in both Pasay (near to Manila airport) and Caloocan (situated in Manila's
northern suburbs and at the end of the light rail transit) Traveling
by air conditioned coach the travel time is generally around 4 hours.
Air conditioned coaches leave Pasay twice daily and from Caloocan every
hour on the hour, Busses now also depart from Cubao and Sampaloc, check
the Victory Liner website for
departure information. Regular buses also ply the route but take considerably
longer as they do not traverse the Northern Luzon Expressway.
By Private Vehicle: From
Manila take the North Expressway "NLEX", pass the San Fernando
/ Olongapo Exit, look for the signs for the NEW Subic - Clark - Tarlac
expressway
"SCTEX" (the opening of this has shortened travel time by
about an hour, from the old 4 to 5 hours, to 3 to 4 hours) and follow
that directly into S.B.M.A. (Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority). Once
inside the Freeport be sure to follow the Traffic rules, as rolling
Stop signs, speeding Etc. will not be tollerated and you will surely
get a traffic ticket if you do. Shortly after the Toll gate you will
be stoped at a check point, this is to control the exit of Duty Free
goods Etc. After leaving the check point the First intersection you
will reach is the Rizal Highway Junction, turn Right here, next is a
traffic light, for Zambales go straight ahead. Not far after passing
the Traffic lights you will pass the Marina and Yacht Club, turn Left
at the Next Traffic Light, take the First Right, Canal St, and follow
straight on to the Kalakalan Gate to exit the Freeport Zone. Upon crossing
the bridge, turn Left back onto the National Highway which will take
you through Castillejos, San Marcellino, (here you have a choice, straight
on, known as the Short Cut or left via San Antonio) the roads meet again
just before San Narciso. Followed by San Felipe and Cabangan, Rama is
located 9 kilometers after Cabangan which is still 8 kilometers before
Botolan town. The Kilometer 189 Highway marker is directly opposite
our entrance.
