Hi! I plan to travel from Dipolog to Davao a couple of months from now. Could you help me out with the best and safest routes to take via land or sea?

Palihog na lang pud ko ug apil sa plite. Salamat!
Wala na man dagway direct flight from Dipolog to Davao kay wala man dyud sa ilang website.

You can try 2 routes:

Route A: Dipolog-Pagadian-Cotabato City-Davao (13 hours)

Route B: Dipolog-Ozamiz-Iligan-CDO-Davao (20 hours)

fastest: Route A
safest: Route B
cost: both routes at around 1K

Ang naka-scary lang jud sa A kay you'll be passing through the ARMM provinces (Maguindanao, Cotabato) but you'll arrive there way faster than B. Also, Pagadian-Cotabato is by van lang (no commercial buses)

B is more like a commercial route and you'll be passing through a lot of cities. It's not continuous and involves riding a barge from Ozamiz to Mukas. Also factor in the traffic when passing through Iligan and CDO kay busy kay ning mga lugara. Also pag-abot nimog Bukidnon, cgeg hunong2x ang bus sa different towns like Malaybalay, Valencia, Maramag. Dugay kay ka maka-abot ug Davao ani pero friendly places ra imong maagian and everybody speaks Bisaya

both routes have nice views along the way pero mas nicer ug breath-taking ang views sa B kay agi jud ka on top of the mountain, kilid sa mountain, kilid sa pangpang, ug mga plantations in Bukidnon.

Thank you so much for your reply. I will be taking Route B. So far I have gathered the ff. info

500php dipolog - cdo. 6-7hrs. on bus
then 600 cdo - davao 8-9 on bus..

van ride to davao - 400 pesos.. and only 5-6 hours of travel

I will be traveling in a few days and i will keep you posted on my progress. Thanks!
