Below are the terminals where you can find buses with trips Nasugbu, Balayan, and Lemery in Batangas via Tagaytay. You can alight at Fora Rotunda Tagaytay. The travel time is approximately 2 to 3 hours depending on traffic conditions and if the bus constantly stops for passengers to board.

1. South West Integrated Provincial Transport System (SWIPTS) Terminal otherwise know as the Parañaque Integrated Terminal Exchange (PITX) in Uniwide Coastal Mall, Pasay City. Choose from Lorna Express, DLTB Bus, San Agustin, Erjohn Almark, and BSC (Batman Starexpress Corporation). This should be closed already (read this news from UNTV News & Rescue and MMDA). But I included it because some passengers I met say they were still able to ride a bus here.
