Obviously, the fastest way to commute to SM MOA Arena from any point of the metropolis is via train of our LRT and MRT Lines.

Warning: Riding train in Metro Manila is not safe for high-end gadget owners. That's the fact. I have experienced it and so did countless of others. A group of criminals who steal phones by playing noisy, happy, and talking to destruct attention of passengers away from their phones are always on the look out for easy prey. So, please make sure that your iphone, samsungs galaxy and other smartphones are secured in your pocket with your hand holding it. Believe me, it's not enough to put your phone on your pocket. Hold it with your hand inside your pocket. Here's a classic example of their modus operandi: click here.

Back to our topic.

By MRT-3, alight at Taft Station, then ride a jeepney from Malibay bound for MOA. You should see "SM MOA" wordings on its front. Look at one side of the jeepney and check if there's a "Malibay" wording on it. The loading area is along EDSA's southbound lane before MRT-3 EDSA Station.

By LRT-1, alight at EDSA Station and walk towards loading area along EDSA,s southbound lane. Confirm to driver if he's going to south terminal. Because there are some drivers that don't take passengers to the terminal. They just head back to Malibay after passing through Globe Rotunda at the middle of MOA frontage. If that happens, you need to walk a little bit far and you might be late.
