Metered taxis generally cruise for hire. In hotel vicinities, they are on call. There are 15 stations spread at every kilometer stretch from the main terminals. Travel time from end to end is 30 minutes. Car hires and airconditioned tourist buses are also available from licensed tour operators in major cities.
Most hotels have a limousine service.
WHAT TO WEAR Light casual clothes are recommended. Warmer garments are needed for trips to the mountain regions. For informal occasions, a dinner jacket and tie may be worn, or perhaps the Philippine Barong Tagalog, the country's national costume. The Philippines is also the third largest English-speaking country in the world. Thus, English is widely spoken and is extensively used in business and government.
