BEEP Cebu Guide: Fare, Routes, Schedule, Updates

It’s a big step gearing towards Cebu’s efficient commuting system by modernizing the public transportation.

Aside from the historical Jeepneys (PUJ) that commuters usually use, Bus-Jeepney or BEEP mass transport was launched early this year and can now be spotted in the roads of Cebu City.

More about BEEP

There are at least 40 models plying around the city. These fully air-conditioned and equipped with TV, GPS and CCTV cameras ensuring safe, efficient and comfortable public commute.

Blue vs White BEEPs

The only yet insignificant difference between the two (aside from the color, of course) is the seating capacity.

  • Blue BEEP: can carry 33 passengers with 26 seats.
  • White BEEP: can carry 31 persons, with 22 seats.

Budlaan Falls: A Hidden Nature Paradise in Cebu City

If you love to witness and experience the rawness of nature and up for an adventure-filled river trekking, then you must consider this “hidden” waterfall paradise in Brgy. Budlaan, Cebu City.

Trending when featured on our Facebook Page last year, the Budlaan Falls is tagged as the “hidden falls of the city” because it can be a bit tricky getting there, though still geographically considered part of Cebu City.

It has a long, challenging trail which isn’t really ideal for beginners (we recommend bringing along a guide), but once you’ve reached to the destination, you can definitely say Budlaan Falls is truly a nature-lover’s paradise. Though you shouldn’t expect too much as it’s not as blue as Kawasan Falls or as clear as Tumalog Falls in Oslob.
