A Bus Ride to South Trinidad | from Port of Spain to San Fernando

[@photon137]

It's nice to see that the public transportation infrastructure in Trinidad is being maintained. I used it a lot growing up in Trinidad, from my CIC to UWI days and always loved that you can get pretty much anywhere in Trinidad on the cheap without a car. Watching this brought back good memories. Now, no public transport system is perfect but compared to some places in the world Trinidad is pretty good.

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Agreed, especially as it allows school kids with uniform and peeps over 60’to ride for free as well

[@josiahphillips895]

hmmm yuh see dat all stop.... real pressure!!!

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Lol, I guess during the week it can be, but on a weekend, just gotta enjoy the ride

[@rosemariegray-olabiran7991]

Trinidad looking good. I enjoy the bus ride

[@TrinbagoVibes]

We’re a beautiful country indeed 😁

[@rosemariegray-olabiran7991]

@@TrinbagoVibes yes beautiful green country and clean. Please show more videos how to use public transport so when I travel I will know how to get around in Trinidad

[@TrinbagoVibes]

@@rosemariegray-olabiran7991 will do, that’s why I throw in ah “to be continued” at the end, lol

[@bluesclues8808]

Omgoodness! Well you have re-opened my eyes to public transport back home for South travel. PTSC has surely changed and they have become technologically savvy! I will definitely use the bus system to go to Chaguanas and South when I visit home again. Thank you so much for this eye opener and keep up the fantastic work! Also, can you do a vlog on the water taxi service?

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Glad you enjoyed it and yeah I plan to do the water taxi one of these days

[@joshygriffith]

I'm a huge fan of this local Trinbago KZbin Channel❤ PTSC buses are my one and only favorite vehicle. I love riding the PTSC buses rather than riding in Maxi Taxis or cars (PH taxis) bus rides is the best kind of rides to experience in Trinidad and Tobago and I's a Trini too🇹🇹 this video was really really good

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Much appreciated Josh 🙏🏽

[@sandrahoey1244]

Thanks for the journey ❤

[@TrinbagoVibes]

You’re most welcome

[@jameel9487]

Nice little buss ride. Good thing about PTSC busses, its very cheap and alot cheapsr than regular taxis or even our own vehicle. Stay safe buddy. 💥💥💯💯💯💫💫💫💢💢

[@TrinbagoVibes]

That it is, you just have to schedule accordingly

[@antonioramirez4739]

Good job sharing this classic Trinbago trip

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Thanks 🙏🏽

[@tyronepereira-khan5163]

Great video and guide on using the buses in Trinidad and Tobago. I used to travel on the bus quite regular between Port of Spain and San Fernando and found the service good. The buses are clean, comfortable to travel on and I think good value for money 😊

[@TrinbagoVibes]

@@tyronepereira-khan5163 indeed they are value for money

[@ayewood7969]

Another awsome and informative video, thanks for sharing, haven't been on a bus in about ten yrs.

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Thank you and same here, well except for this one, lol

[@evan.agumbs1887]

I did that trip to San Fernando by bus from Port of Spain also and I enjoyed it.

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Nice, hopefully I’ll do a few more trips with the PTSC and see how it goes

How long was the drive thks

[@yvanar-sp3rz]

Wow our tt public transport system seems to be on par with systems abroad, I’m impressed to see this and was not aware . Thanks for showing tt in a good light to the world here on youtube! 🇹🇹🇨🇦🥂👍

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Yup, especially with the price, can’t go wrong and you’re most welcome

Gosh guy, I have seen City gate that clear in ages. I looks so different from 2008 When I left. Wow memories

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Lol, yup this around lunchtime on a Saturday

Nice trip, thanks.

[@TrinbagoVibes]

I’m glad you enjoyed it

[@jacquelinemadoo2616]

Good choice of travel. Whenever I visit I take the bus to go and the water taxi to return..Hope you had a fun trip🎉 Blessings

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Nice and yeah it was good

[@geetamoonesar249]

Hi Rajeev, nice video. So, as far as I'm aware, City Gate is actually the name of the maxi part of the premises and you can also get green band maxis to chaguanas at city gate. The bus terminal part of the compound is actually called PTSC. The Sir Solomon Hochoy Highway begins at Chaguanas. The UBH goes from Champs Fleurs to Chaguanas. After San Juan and Mt. Hope for pick ups - the first drop off point is Freeport. Josiah has a great voice 🎉😊

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Ohh yeah it’s the Churchhill Roosevelt highway 🙈 lol, can’t believe I mixed it up and I didn’t know that about the PTSC part, we just call the entire thing City Gate, lol

[@geetamoonesar249]

@@TrinbagoVibes yes we do refer to all of it as city gate. Thanks again for the vlog 😊 Are you willing to do a rush hour ptsc vlog?

[@HaydnDunn]

Trinbago Vibes, I don't know your name but spectacular job on the details in this video especially on city gate. I lived in Port of spain for three and a half years so that was my stomping grounds. You brought back so many memories with this video. Keep up the good work.👍👍

Wow love this one gives you a good idea of what people experience on a daily basis awesome job bro

[@rickyaustin5164]

Vibes, another first, like the bus 🚌 ride vlog. Interesting, I remember going night classes at John D and hustling to city gate for the last ECS bus 🚌 to Arima. Lots of changes as apps and WiFi on buses. Back then cell phones were not common 😂😂😂😂. Times have changed but from your vlog people still arguing over seats 😂😂😂😂. I try as much as possible to avoid public transport especially maxis when home. Keep your channel innovative and different.

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Something’s change and something’s never do, lol

TBV, I can't remember when last I drove on a bus.😅 I enjoyed it. My sister who is in NY was fascinated with the look of our buses. Far cry from the blue & white buses of yesteryear.😂 Maybe next time you can show us a water-taxi ride.❤

Nice bus ride thanks🤗

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@justelleleigh]

I am glad to see Wi-Fi on the bus finally! I used to ride the bus over 10 years ago before I got fed up of waiting in vain many an afternoon for the bus. I preferred riding the bus to taking any other form of transport bc of the roominess and not having to listen to radio. However, the bus arrival was too unreliable. Nice to see a bus ride to Sando as I once did a sando to POS bus ride after taking the ferry from PoS to Sando

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Yup, now they have a fixed schedule and does be relatively on time, unless traffic keeps them back

[@Ramlalxess]

I am from india.i love trinidad.nice vloge.

[@TrinbagoVibes]

@@Ramlalxess thanks bro

[@unclelink]

Bus rides nice! Best way to get in and out of Maraval. Tried this exact run some years ago! Fell asleep on the way down, got intimidated by Sando so I jumped back in the bus and made a hasty retreat back to the North! Pensioners have it nice. Just show their IDs and it's free (I think they could go Tobago free too)! 🇹🇹 Sweet too bad!

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Lol, I understand the feeling of being in an unfamiliar spot and just wanting to head back to comfort, but Sando norms, lol and yes, we sweet too bad!!!

This is a nice sightseeing bus tour. The bus is clean, and looks comparable to the L.A. private commuter bus system. The Los Angeles public bus system cannot begin to compare to yours in terms of cleanliness and whatever. LOL When they move a few million plus people daily, I guess that they cannot police or keep the buses clean. A few months ago, I got on the bus, and a man was holding a big snake. It might have been a python. The bus driver did not say a word. They were going to Venice Beach. I got off the bus two stops, two minutes later.

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Somehow when I reach the snake part I somehow knew it was Venice beach that person was going, lol and yeah LA has 10 times the population of T&T

[@shqa574]

@@TrinbagoVibes The bus was full, and the passengers were very quiet. Lord, that was the most extreme thing I have ever seen on the public bus.
