ferry and bus trip from dumaguete city (negros oriental) to cebu city (cebu) has estimated travel time of 5.5 hours combined (without side trip). i left dumaguete city at exactly 1120H then arrived to cebu city south terminal at around 1700H. earliest bus trip to depart is 0315H, then, 0500H, 0835H, 1120H and 1400H, at php200 fare. after 40 minutes, we arrived in the dumaguete port, php70 for the ferry fare on 30-minute journey.
arrived at 1700H in cebu city and just infront of the terminal i rode a multicab bound to pier then dropped-off to pier 1 where fort san pedro is located. finally, after over 2 months of navigating the entire required stamp, i am walking slowly with full of smile and joyful flashback towards the 26th and final lakbay-rizal site. fort san pedro opens 0700-2000H, stamp site is the admission desk, located inside the fort. you have to pay for php30 entrance before having the last piece that this quest a fun-filled travel. at 1725H, i obtained the complete lakbay rizal passport with 26 important places on Dr. Jose Rizal's traveling experience in the philippines. from ncr, to regions 4, 3, 9, 5, 6 and 7.
SAN PEDRO FORT - The S.S. EspaƱa docked in Cebu on August 2, 1896 for a routine one-day stop over. After breakfast on board, Commander Carcinero took Rizal under custody to the Spanish Military Commander of Cebu, Gen. Adulfo Montero in the Military Headquarters located in Fort San Pedro.
by the way, fort san pedro is the oldest and smallest fort in the Philippines.
instead of taking an expensive travel mode on taxi which suggested by most of the locals in taking my way to the airport, i still research for a possible cheapest public transportation available. from fort san pedro, i just walked at estimated 500 meters away going to pier 3 where a ferry bound to lapu-lapu city is available, last trip at 2200H and fare at php13 (including php1 terminal fee). then, rode a multicab bound to savemore at php7 fare and then went to multicab terminal going to airport at another php7 trip.
