Private Route to Tagaytay

This page shall tell you the secrets routes going to Tagaytay City from Manila and North of Tagaytay. There seems to be no problem with traveler from the South side of Tagaytay.

Route 1: From Makati:

VIA South Luzon Expressway (SLEX). This expressway is currently under construction and your will have to travel “off” hours. The fastest exit will be at Greenfields, then follow the signs goin to Sta Rosa, and Tagaytay. However, due to the expressway traffic, at present this is not a good exit.

Exit instead at Southwoods the follow the signs. Note that big bikes, bikes, and public transport is not allowed entry into Southwoods. Goin up, you will see the Shell Station, take that left, that’s the MAGUYAM SHORTCUT, just follow the road and at the end at SEAOIL gas station will be on your left, take that left, then a quick right to the next open street, then left at Aguinaldo Hiway.

If you miss Southwoods, take the Carmona exit then follow the same directions going to TAgaytay where you will see the Shell Station.

Another exit is Sta. Rosa exit. Don’t take this after 430pm. Employees at Epza will be goin out be then and youll be stuck. If you’re stuck, take a U turn and exit at Greenfields. IF the traffic’s fine, go straight, and you’ll end at TAgaytay City market.

From Manila, you can also take the coastal road. The aguinaldo hiway will lead you straight to TAgaytay City. Traffic build-up usually occurs at SM Bacoor and Imus tollbridge. There are actually roads to detour out of these areas by taking the road at the back of Imus. This is quite complex but actually the roads are quite simple. IF you want to try, you can take a right to Bacoor proper, go straight and it will lead you to …Binakayan….then straight to Amadeo.
