Jeepney Rides, Manila Overview

Popularly known as the ‘Filipino Jeepney’, the graffiti-splashed jeepneys is the highlight of Manila. The most common mode of public transport in Manila, the jeepneys are stretched versions of military jeeps that were used by the Americans in World War II. The seats accommodate up to 10 passengers per side (some longer ones accommodate 20 passengers per side) and can be stopped by the wave of a hand anywhere on the streets.

Aside from the driver and a passenger in the front seat, the rest sit on the longitudinal cushioned seats installed across each other behind the front. The flamboyant art and gaudy decorations on the jeepneys make it an iconic and ubiquitous means of public transport in the Philippines and distinguish it as a unique means of commuting. Considered to be the cultural symbol of Manila, the vibrant jeepneys are also known for their crowded seating. That means if you are to sit inside a jeepney, you should understand that your personal space will be under siege, and your knees will be clanking against each other if not with other people. The commute is undoubtedly entertaining, especially for tourists. However, any longer than 30 minutes might get uncomfortable and inconvenient.

Read More on Jeepney Rides

Things to know about jeepney rides, know your route before boarding the jeepney, read the signs and board the right jeepney, etiquettes to follow when in the jeepney, payment system followed in the jeepney, getting off from the jeepney.

• To make this exchange easier, nowadays, some of the jeepneys have gotten a string installed that you can pull to ask the driver to stop. The string is connected to a small bulb on the bonnet of the driver. When the string is pulled, the bulb is lit signalling the driver to stop.

Cons of the Jeepneys

• As the jeepneys can halt or stop anywhere they want on the roads to load or unload passengers, they are a major cause of traffic congestion. 
• This sudden halting also poses a threat to the safety of the passengers getting down or getting on the jeepneys as both the drivers and the passengers jostle for space. The driver also cut in lanes from other drivers and that might create a ruckus on the street.
• Not to mention, the jeepneys are really old and an ancient means of transport and are therefore, a major cause of chronic air pollution. 
• A lot of them have balding tyres, poor emissions, and distorted subframes.
• The overcrowded seating at the back and the low height make visibility very poor for the drivers.
• There is no seat belt therefore, posing a risk for the passengers.
• The high staircase at the entry/ exit is very inconvenient and difficult to get on or get off. 
• There is very little headroom and almost no space for shopping bags or any kind of luggage.

Terminology of the Jeepneys

Naming of the jeepneys, shutting down the jeepneys.

• Sitting closest to the driver designates you to the job of passing on ticket money.
• Try and carry exact change. In case, it is not possible, pass on only a 10 peso coin or at most 20 peso bill. Some of the jeepney drivers tend to lose memory of everything and that creates a hassle at the time of shortchanging.
• When you pay the driver via other passengers, make sure to say ‘Bayad Po’ really loud so that the driver knows that the money came from you.
• Sometimes these jeepneys ride really fast when the roads are empty, make sure you are careful and have all your hands and feet inside the vehicle. 
• Be careful about your valuables and wallets. There are passing motorcycle thieves that tend to snatch these purses and jewellery. There might be some pickpockets within the jeepney also, so be extra cautious. 
• Avoid being too flashy as in wearing extra jewellery or carrying too much cash. 
• Carry a hand fan so you can comfort yourself in the hot and humid climate.

Established in 1924, the factory has been a proud symbol of Filipino ingenuity and craftsmanship. Each jeepney is handcrafted according to the client’s individual tastes.

The process of building a jeepney starts with the frame. The frame is made from steel and welded together in the factory. Once the frame is complete, it is sent to the painting area, where it is painted in the client’s desired color. After the frame is painted, the other components, such as the axles, wheels, engine, and body panels, are assembled. The jeepney is then outfitted with accessories, such as chrome trim and awnings, to give it a unique look.

At the Sarao Motors Jeepney Factory, the jeepneys are crafted with great attention to detail. The factory employs experienced artisans who are trained to construct the jeepneys with the utmost precision. The artisans use only the highest-quality materials and components, ensuring that each jeepney is built to last. The artisans take great pride in their work and strive to produce aesthetically pleasing and highly functional jeepneys.

Visa, a world leader in digital payments, is working with Good Transport Solutions Inc. (GTSI), a transit mobility solutions provider and GHL, a leading nationwide payment service provider and payment acquirer to enable the use of Visa cards for payments on modern jeepneys in Cebu City and Mandaue City.

The initiative kicked off with an official launch ceremony at the Cebu IT Park Transport Terminal, with GTSI working in partnership with local transport operator Lahug Apas Transport Cooperative (LATRANSCO) and Mandaue Transport Cooperative (MTC) to launch 120 modern jeepneys in Cebu and 20 modern jeepneys in Mandaue City.

The onboard terminals in these vehicles now accept Visa payments.

The initiative, part of a pilot project, signifies Visa’s commitment to promoting transit acceptance in the Philippines with plans to expand to more modes of transit in coming years.

“We are thrilled to unveil Visa’s inaugural transit project in the Philippines. This initiative aims to enhance the travel experience for daily commuters and tourists in Mandaue City by offering a wider array of payment options,” said Jeff Navarro, Visa Philippines country manager.

“As tourism in the Philippines rebounds, we have observed a growth in inbound tourism and this partnership will make the transit experience more seamless for tourists. The future of transit, both globally and within the Philippines, is poised to create inclusivity through open-loop, contactless payment systems in public transit, and will be centered around providing commuters with seamless, convenient, and secure payment options,” he said.

Cebu experienced a 69-percent year-on-year increase in visitors in February 2024, welcoming 104,439 tourists, according to the Department of Tourism.

Meanwhile, Mandaue City, a popular tourist destination in Cebu, recorded 228,472 tourist arrivals between January and September 2022.

With such strong tourism growth, the ability to use Visa cards on public transit significantly enhances convenience, as travelers increasingly prefer secure, contactless digital payments.

Visa’s Global Travel Intentions Study highlights the shift, revealing that 97 percent of Asia Pacific travelers plan to use card payments (credit, debit, or prepaid) on their trips, while only 17 percent intend to carry foreign currency (cash).

“We are proud to partner with Visa and GHL to bring the first-of-its-kind contactless payment solution to the Philippines’ transport sector through our Transport Mobility Solution, the Bus Revenue Tracker System,” GTSI chief executive Brezhnev Tero said.

“This groundbreaking collaboration not only revolutionizes fare collection with enhanced efficiency and security but also redefines the commuter experience. By leading the way in transport innovation, we are making every journey smoother, faster, and more convenient, setting a new standard for public transport in the country,” he said.
