Fares and Tickets
Since the beginning LRT 1 initially started using token amounting of Php 10.00 for you to access the LRT facility. I remember the days that when buying token was easy and convenient. Many establishments are selling tokens within the vicinity of each LRT stations.Having a Store Value ticket you can use it to the fullest until the last peso. For example, if you buy a single journey ticket it will cost you around Php 12.00. But if you purchase store value that has an equivalent to 4 rides back and forth already (12 x 8= Php 96.00). And you still have remaining Php 4.00 on your store value card. Therefore you have 1 FREE RIDE going to your next destination and you save Php 8.00 for that 1 ride.
Let me give you some landmarks of each LRT Station as your guide or reference going to your desired destination.
