There's a convenient way to travel long distance by land going north of Luzon. Me and my sisters went on a trip to San Juan, La Union recently. I googled the bus companies with trips to La Union and found Partas Trans Co.
We are anticipating a 5-hour trip from Cubao to La Union. We chose to take the night schedule (10pm) to avoid traffic and sleep for the duration of the trip. We also opted for the De Luxe Bus. Trips heading to Laoag, Vigan and Abra will pass by La Union. We simply told the conductor that we will alight at San Juan Surf Resort.
Advance purchase of tickets is available. The bus terminal is located in Aurora Boulevard near Edsa.
Here's the latest available schedule as of May 2014
I made inquiries through their Facebook Page. The page administrator is very prompt in answering inquiries.
