For some Filipinos, taking a cruise ship to go to a local destination is still not one of the top options. The old images in people’s minds is that of cramped ship spaces and dirty quarters, which can be enough deterrent. This will soon be changed with premier land/sea trip provider 2GO Travel which has been upping domestic travel by providing passengers with world-class and cruise-like experiences on board.

Going aboard the massive cruise ship brings you to a wide lobby with personnel ready to assist you for boarding. With a capacity of 1,856 passengers and 200 20-foot equivalent units (TEU) of cargo, it addresses the demand for an alternative means for people who want to go home to their provinces and tourists who want to go around the Philippines in an affordable, safe and convenient way.
