2GO

Formerly known as Negros Navigation, 2Go Travel is one of the core subsidiaries of Philippine-based 2GO Group Inc. which was established way back in 1949.
The operator specializes in passenger ships and fast ferries operations. It was formed by a merge of the biggest shipping lines in the country: SuperFerry, Cebu Ferries, and SuperCat which became known as SuperFerry and subsequently acquired by Negros Navigation.
The company has one of the most modern and expansive fleets of inter-island vessels in the Philippines including roll on/roll off passenger vessels that can accommodate up to 1800 passengers as well as fastcrafts.
2Go Travel currently has 106 outlets all over the country located in malls, travel agencies, and various ports.

Manila is the most popular point of origin for 2Go ferries that head to various destinations across the country.
In Manila, 2Go ferries depart from North Harbor Pier 4, which can be accessed by a jeep.

To grab the best deals with 2Go, shop during seasonal sales periods. 2Go Travel promo tickets are a great way to save big on your sea journey.

1. 2Go has really placed a premium on the safety and comfort of their passengers. Security checks of luggage are always conducted. There is a sufficient number of life jackets on board, lifeboats, an in-house medical unit, a rescue boat and even a few police representatives.
2. The amenities and facilities are not to be frowned upon, either. There is always a good front office, a 24/7 cafe, a full bar, live entertainment, salons, and spas.
3. There are charging stations on board for passengers of all classes.
4. 2Go ships including common areas and toilets are generally cleaner compared to other ferries around the archipelago.
5. Overnight trips are a great way to save some bucks on accommodation and entertainment.
6. 2Go can arrange onward transportation for passengers through their partner companies to make your travel even more convenient.

1. Trips can be delayed or cancelled due to weather conditions, especially during the typhoon season. Be ready and be flexible. This is not the fault of the company, though. Yet in case of a delay no complimentary food and drinks are offered.
2. The refund process if you require one can take as long as 2 months if you cancel your tickets paid for by a bank card for any reason.
3. Air-conditioning is often freezing cold but overall the price and experience are hard to beat.
