Fleet Recommendation
Top 3 Destinations
Valencia (Casaroro Falls)
A cool mountain retreat just 20 minutes from the city.
Pro Driving Tip: The road to Valencia is paved but steep. Shift your automatic gear to "L" or "2" when descending to use engine braking and prevent brake overheating.
Malatapay (For Apo Island)
The jump-off point for world-class turtle snorkeling.
Pro Driving Tip: Wednesday is "Market Day" in Malatapay. Traffic can be heavy and parking scarce; aim to arrive before 07:00 AM to secure a safe parking spot near the pier.
Manjuyod Sandbar (Bais City)
Known as the "Maldives of the Philippines."
Pro Driving Tip: The National Highway to Bais is wide but frequented by large sugarcane trucks. Maintain a safe following distance and only overtake on clear straightaways.

Our rentals come with Unlimited Mileage within the island of Negros. You are free to explore popular spots like Valencia (Casaroro Falls), Dauin, or even drive up to Bais for dolphin watching. However, please note that our sedans and hatchbacks are restricted to paved roads only; if you plan to visit rugged highland areas, we recommend booking one of our SUVs or Pickups.
