Ceres Bus Liner rates and schedule: Bacolod-Cebu and Cebu-Bacolod updated September 2011

Finally, here’s an update on the Ceres Liner bus rates and schedule for the Cebu-Bacolod and Bacolod-Cebu routes. I know this is long overdue and a lot of you folks have been waiting for an update. This is the latest schedule as posted at the Cebu North Terminal for both Cebu and Bacolod departures as of September 13, 2011. Before anything else though, here are some important reminders:

1. This travel blog is not affiliated with the Ceres Liner (Vallacar Transit Inc.) bus company. If you have any related questions or you need additional information, I strongly suggest that you contact the company directly at the following numbers:
Bacolod City: (034) 433-4993 / 434-2386 / 434-2387
Cebu City: (032) 345-8650

2. Weather and other travel conditions may affect the bus schedule posted here and subject to change anytime by the Ceres Liner management, thus if you are concerned about the exact departure time, it is best to confirm with their office and contact them at the numbers provided.

3. Route details (maps, destination ports and municipalities passed by) are posted here: Bacolod-Cebu and Cebu-Bacolod Ceres Liner bus routes. I recommend you study the route details, these are practical information if you’re going on a Ceres bus trip for the first time or if you want to be acquainted with the cities and municipalities along the way. No need to be disoriented and overwhelmed just like a newbie tourist in an unfamiliar place, being in one of those all inclusive holidays to Egypt, Nepal or some exotic African destination. Analyzing the Negros and Cebu map details and routes will make one confident about taking bus trips between these two islands.
