A view of the back end of the enclosed and air-conditioned ferry. Each ferry has three rows. With three seats on either side row and four seats on the middle row.
At the front, you can see to the left and partly to the right the exit doors leading to the front side exits. Also featured is the HDTV up front for the passengers' entertainment. Not much use for those seated way back though.The door to the bridge is also seen to the right of the HDTV.
The ferry travels from Kalawaan, Pasig City, Metro Manila to Escolta in the City of Manila. Stations along the way are Bambang in Pasig City, Guadalupe near the Guadalupe bridge in EDSA, Sta. Ana and Lambingan stations both in Mandaluyong, PUP in Sta. Mesa, Manila, and finally Escolta across the historical Philippine Postal Corporation.
Four ferries alternately arrive every 35 minutes in every station. The trip from Bambang to Escolta takes about an hour and 15 minutes.
They charge from 25 to 45 pesos during weekdays and a flat rate of 25 pesos on weekends.
Well, we are on our way now to have another ride on the ferry to visit Divisoria for some bargain shopping.
