Motorelas: The Iconic Public Transportation of Cagayan de Oro
When it comes to getting around Cagayan de Oro (CDO), one vehicle truly stands out—the motorela. These small yet incredibly practical rides are a common sight, zipping through the city’s streets and offering an affordable way to travel. If you've ever set foot in CDO, chances are you've hopped into one of these uniquely local transports.

The motorela is like the jeepney’s smaller cousin, designed specifically for the city's compact roads. It’s essentially a tricycle with a covered cabin attached to a motorcycle, seating around 6 to 8 passengers. What makes each motorela special is its personality—many are brightly painted, decorated with unique designs, and sometimes even feature witty slogans or personal touches from the driver.

Tips for First-Time Riders
Know the Route – Before hopping in, check where the motorela is headed to make sure it matches your destination.
Bring Small Bills – Fares are low, so having coins or small denominations makes paying easier.
Be Patient – During rush hours, you may need to wait a little longer for an available ride.

More Than Just a Ride
The motorela isn’t just a mode of transport—it’s a symbol of Cagayan de Oro’s charm and ingenuity. Whether you're a local or a visitor, taking a motorela is a must-try experience. So next time you're in the City of Golden Friendship, flag one down and enjoy the ride!
