BUS SCHEDULE: Manila to Baler and Baler to Manila

From Manila, Baler is anywhere from 5 to 7 hours depending on the bus you’ll ride on. There are two bus lines that go to Baler in Aurora Province: Genesis Bus and Joy Bus. These two bus lines are sister companies and shares the same terminal in Edsa – Cubao.

If you are coming from Pasay, Alabang, Makati, airport areas, it is best to ride an Edsa bound bus or taxi that passes by “Cubao Ilalim” (the underpass). You can still ride the “Cubao Ibabaw” buses / taxis if you prefer but may take a bit longer due to traffic / stop lights along the way.

The bus terminal in Cubao is a few meters after your vehicle exits the underpass.
