Whether you're checking into a five-star beachfront resort or a budget backpacker hostel, getting from Siargao Airport to General Luna should be the easiest part of your journey. Here's how to find the best shuttle for your needs โ and why thousands of travelers choose Shuttle Siargao every month.
Why the Shuttle is the Best Option from Siargao Airport
Siargao Airport (Sayak Airport, IAO) is a small domestic airport with limited transport options. There's no Grab, no Uber, no metered taxis. Your choices are: a pre-booked shuttle van, an opportunistic tricycle ride, or walking (not recommended with luggage in tropical heat). The shuttle wins every time.
- Fixed price: โฑ350/person โ no negotiation, no surprises
- Air-conditioned: Toyota Hiace vans with full climate control
- Door-to-door: delivered to your exact hotel entrance

How Early Should You Book?

What to Do If Your Flight is Delayed
Flight delays in the Philippines are common. Here's what happens if your flight is late:
- We monitor your flight number in real time
- Your driver adjusts their arrival time accordingly
- You receive a WhatsApp update if there's a significant change
- No cancellation fees for delays beyond your control
This is why it's essential to provide your correct flight number when booking โ it allows us to track your arrival automatically.
