Undoubtedly, Davao is Philippines’ gem in the south. It is also one of the biggest cities in Asia. It has a lot to offer from sumptuous dishes to exotic sceneries. This is why a lot of people go out of their way to visit Davao and see what it has in store for them.

Being a large city has its ups and downs. On the positive side, it is abundant in natural resources. It also has a strong economy and it contributes to the growth of the country’s economy because of what it has to offer. Its population is also equivalent to a strong manpower.

At the same time, the large population is also the city’s downfall. Traffic has always been an issue. There are a lot of private vehicles on the road. You will also have a hard time jumping from one place to another. If you are staying for a week or so in the city, it won’t be enough to see all the places that are on your list.

Public transportation may have improved over time, but it is still a bit messy. Taking public transportation is also not highly recommended especially those vehicles without air conditioning. Philippines is a tropical country so expect it to get really hot during certain times of the year.

Deciding to rent a van Davao like the Toyota Van and Hyundai Starex is definitely a perfect choice. This allows you to easily move from one tourist destination to another with ease. You don’t need to worry about waiting for the bus to arrive or for smaller vehicles to be full before moving. There are also places that are quite remote and public transportation is not possible.

You won’t miss out on anything

Given the road related issues in Davao, you might find it difficult to travel around the city. This is sad if there are specific places on the list that you really want to visit. With a private van, you don’t need to worry about the vehicle. Even if the two places you wish to visit within a day are several miles apart, it is fine. You can still arrive at those destinations on time. You don’t even have to stay longer than intended if you have already visited all the places that are on your list.

Safety is a priority

Another issue when it comes to public transportation is safety. Even if Davao is one of the safest cities in Asia, it is still not crime-free. Using public transport if you are not from there could still pose a challenge. Add to that the aging buses and vans that are still on the streets.

With private vans like the Toyota Innova Van and Fortuner, you are guaranteed safety. With sites like Limoscanner where you can find quality vans for rent, this won’t be an issue anymore. You just have to choose the van model that you want like the Toyota Avanza, make online reservations and pay. On the day of your arrival, your van will be there to pick you up and see the best of Davao.
