Alternatively, you can opt for public transportation by taking Victory Liner buses from either Cubao or Pasay terminals. For those starting from Clark and Angeles City, it's a scenic 2-hour drive using SCTEX and Iba road. Another option is to take a UV Express from Dau terminal to Subic, and then catch a public bus from Subic to Botolan. Traveling from Subic Bay and Olongapo? You'll be pleased to know that Botolan is just a little over an hour's drive away. There are also public buses available, heading to Sta. Cruz and Iba. If you happen to be in Iba already, Botolan is a mere 15 minutes' drive south of the town. Lastly, if you're in Tarlac province, there's good news! A new road, called the Botolan-Capas road, is currently under construction. Once completed, it will significantly reduce travel time from Tarlac to Botolan, making it less than an hour away. Please note that as of the end of 2017, this road is still being built, so it's advisable to check for updates before planning your trip.
