How to get there:

From Manila/Cebu City:

  • The best and fastest way to get to Dahican if you are coming from Manila or Cebu is by taking the plane to Davao City. Upon reaching the airport of Davao City you can just walk your way to the highway and wait for Mati bound buses. More often than not, buses bound for mati have a regular schedule of leaving every hour from around 3am to 8pm. Travel time from Davao City is around 3 to 5 hours depending on the road and traffic state. Cost of bus fare is around 250 Pesos for the air-conditioned ones.

From Davao City:

  • If you are from Davao City you have several options. You may take the taxi or jeepney and be dropped off at GMALL or Victoria Plaza. There are a lot of public vans in those malls which are bound for Mati and are deemed to be faster than those of the buses who tend to have more stopovers. If you would like to take the bus with assured seats, you may head to Davao City’s Ecoland Bus Terminal.

From Mati Bus Terminal:

  • Upon arriving in Mati Bus Terminal, you can hire a tricycle or single motorcycle to take you to Dahican.
