I understand it’s an airforce base so they want to keep an eye on forieners but this is a good place to attract tourists. The amount of red tape and bureaucracy in the philippines is a huge turn off for tourist… supposedly the Philippines is trying to increase tourism but having to apply 20 days before your tour is not ok… I should have flew into manila if I would have known I can’t see the creator…. only well that’s my rant… thanks
Is it possible to still tour Mount Pinatubo crater if we arrive on Monday 21st April and only have Tuesday 22nd for a tour? We are foreign nationals.
