  • BGC or Bonifacio Global City is situated approximately two kilometers to the east of MRT Ayala Station in EDSA, Makati.

    You can get to any building or destination within the privately owned highly urbanized district from MRT Ayala by means of a bus ride from The Fort Bus Terminal located approximately 40 meters from the train station. Alight at designated Bus Stop nearest to your building or place of destination and walk a little bit.

    There are two routes the buses take in going to Bonifacio Global City (also known as Fort Bonifacio or simply Global City) from The Fort Bus Terminal in EDSA:

    WEST ROUTE EAST ROUTE
    The bus that plies this route is:
    • The Fort Bus - takes McKinley Drive from its terminal in EDSA
    Route Direction
    The bus loops through the west part of BGC and unloads/loads passengers at Bus Stops located along the route and goes back to its EDSA terminal.
    Two buses ply this route:
    • The Fort Bus - takes McKinley Drive
    • HM Bus - takes EDSA and Kalayaan Ave
    Route Directions
    Both buses take passengers to buildings and places located within the east part of BGC and then the bus parks at its other terminal in Market Market parking ground. All passengers who haven't alighted in Bus Stops at which the bus had stopped earlier must alight at Market Market.
    Buy ticket
    Get inside the terminal. Proceed to ticket seller window with signage that reads West Route EDSA Stopover. See map below on how to get to The Fort Bus Terminal in EDSA from MRT Ayala Station.
    Buy ticket
    Get inside the terminal. Proceed to ticket seller window with signage that reads East Route Market Market. See map below on how to get to The fort Bus Terminal in EDSA from MRT Ayala Station.

    Important: HM Bus also refers to those buses with "Worthy Transport" sign on them. They don't take McKinley. As such, they don't pass by McKinley Pkway Bus Stop. If the bus you ride bound for East BGC is The Fort Bus or BGC Bus, it stops at McKinley Pkway. In that case, "The Fort Bus Stop" which is the first Bus Stop of HM Bus becomes the second Bus Stop and so on. You need to remember that, because bus dispatch via East Route is subject to availability of types of buses though HM Bus runs East Route primarily. West Route is solely handled by The Fort Bus and the fleet of these buses bear Bonifacio Global City signs on their outer body.

    Location Map of The Fort Bus Terminal in EDSA

    As you can see in this map, the The Fort Bus Terminal, is situated very near to MRT Ayala Station. Just take the road at the foot of MRT stair. If you're in Glorietta or SM Makati, get across EDSA via MRT Ayala Station. If you're from Ayala Avenue, use the pedestrian overpass to get to the other side of EDSA and walk towards MRT. If you're riding a bus from north e.g. Caloocan, Cubao, Monumento, Fairview or Novaliches, alight at SM Makati and get across EDSA via MRT Station. If you're riding a bus from south e.g. Alabang, Sucat, Baclaran, NAIA, SM MOA or Pasay, alight at MRT Ayala Station.

    Fourth Bus Stop From EDSA: STI 32nd Street


    Located right before C-5 and Metro Market Market where terminal of jeepneys and FXs bound for different directions is located. The tall building of STI is just across 32nd St, situated at the corner of 32nd and 38th St. Also visible even before the bus stops is Every Nation, located at the right corner of 32nd and 38 streets opposite STI. You just cross 32nd to get to them. Walk to the right of 38th Street from Every Nation to get to International School Manila which is next to Every Nation. Walk to the left of 38th St from STI to get to Energy Development Corporation and Department of Energy which are next to STI. PNOC is next. Then British School Manila followed by Manila Japanese School which you might find too far for a walk, so you might consider taking a taxi from Market Market. But you can actually ride a jeepney that passes through 38th St. The sign of the jeepney is "Guadalupe" and you can ride this jeep at the loading area along McKinley Pkwy between Market Market and Serendra. 38th St continues McKinley Pkway to the other side of 32nd St.

    wOW THIS SHOULD BE MADE INTO A MINI HANDBOOK DIRECTIONS TO bgc


    Wow. I'm dumbfounded. This should be made to a Directions Guide to BGC Map booklet and provided to any local or foreign tourist. Calling the attention of INTELLECTUALLY savvy Taguig City Town managers---This is the perfect guide to YOUR TAX RICH CITY PROPERTY. I can't say enough but again kudos to the blogger for the detailed and meticulously crafted directional guide to BONIFACIO GLOBAL CITY.

    This was indeed a breather for those planning to work or simply visit the place..Mind you I had to learn my directions the hard way last year plying to this unknown route. Since majority of the marathons have been organized @BGC being familiar with the directions is a must.. This would really be a handy dandy.

    You bet it's gonna be a big help for health conscious individuals who would come here for upcoming marathons the first time. Being on time is essential I think so that stress is eliminated and being familiar with how to get to the starting line would definitely add up to sense of preparedness. Thanks for your appreciation. :)

    Hi, from Manila Japanese School, is there a bus or a jeep that would take you directly to Net Quad inside BGC? or do you need to go to Market Market to ride the bus or get a taxi? TIA

    @ VanityOrNot Pre-order Shop. First, ride a jeepney bound for "Gate 3". Alight at Market Market The Fort Bus Terminal. Ride "The Fort Bus" and ask the driver to drop you off at "Net Cube" bus stop. Net Quad is the building at the back of Net Cube.
