- MOUNT PINATUBO - this wonderful volcano that looks more like a picture taken in New Zealand!
We are both hiking lovers, so we were very excited to have the chance to go on a hiking adeventure to this amazing volcano in the Philippines.
Follow us in this episode as we hike our very first mountain in the Philippines and share our experience with you guys!
Thanks for always uploading educational, calming and great quality videos!
Thank you so much for the kind feedback. Much love 🥰
wow that is so stunning view..
Indeed! Please visit if you ever get the chance ☺️
Stunning view
So true 🥰
This may be the best video I have seen about this mountain.
Oh, wow! Thanks so much for saying that, much appreciated! 🙏
Wow very stunning view 😍 ❤
Indeed 🤩
Cool
Thanks!
Thank you to this video thanks for sharing I am from PH but never been this spot. Done subscribed.
Thank you! Hope you get the chance to visit, it’s really beautiful
Wow! I never imagined how beautiful Mt Pinatubo is. It's so beautiful!
Yes, until you go there you can't really grasp its beauty and you might think the pictures are photoshopped, but they are not. It is truly beautiful.
Thank you for sharing this to the world! You deserved 50k subscribers! Keep safe guys! 👍🇵🇭
Wow, thank you! Hopefully the channel will grow if people enjoy our content - we will keep doing our best to put out quality content 😍
Sharing would help and would be much appreciated 😇
a big salute to both of you sir/ madam.
Hey there! Thanks for watching! 🙌
😍 it's more beautiful 💓
i hope you can visit batanes as well 😇
We hope we can do it one day, Batanes is very beautiful 😍
Wow beautiful Mt Pinatubo. It's amazing thank you for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it - it is super beautiful, hopefully more people will visit.
thanks for sharing this! but so sorry that ypu had this not-so-nice experience with the transportation service. Hope you enjoy as well your next destination
It was a day to remember either way, we would happily go back and do the longer trail 🥰 Thanks for watching!
Wow amazing. I love mountains. I recommend you to visit next time Mt. Mayon Volcano in Albay. Its the most beautiful perfect cone shaped in the world. Its located in Bicol region. If you love beaches, you can visit Caramoan Islands and do an island hopping. Welcome and visit my province and region.
Mt. Mayon is truly an icon 🌋 Would love to explore Bicol - the food is also very tasty 🥰
Thank you for exploring to our Country Philippines my husband is a Romanian but we are living here in Canada. Proud Filipino
WOW, that is amazing to hear! Sending much love to you both. Hope you can visit soon both the Philippines and Romania - both super beautiful but underrated countries.
Nice video
Thank you
subscribed tnx for visiting ph
Thank you. More videos from the PH soon ♥️
Fantastic video folks, views and shots are simply gorgeous.👌
Thanks a lot - it's a fantastic place that is worth visiting despite the constraints the toursim office puts in place - we would love to do the longer hike from Porac one day.
the place should get more foreign tourists - there is so much more to the Philippines than just blue water and white sand :)
*Padayon lang.*
New hike here:

When nature altered tha faces of the Earth,Mt. pinatubo ia one of them.Just imagine that eruption created that lake...Oh my,your drone shots are amazing.I could hardly believe that we have this view in the country.Goodluck...God bless you...
To be honest, when I saw the pictures before we went there, I was skeptical and thought they might be photoshopped :) It's not, it;s gorgeous and we liked how well taken care of is the area where the tourists can rest.
It as gorgeous as the pictures show and if you just show this picture to someone without saying it is in the Philippines, they would think it's New Zealand, Pakistan, Nepal or similar. It even resembles of a similar place in Romania, our country, Bucura Lake (but it's not a volcano, it's a glacier lake)
Thanks so much for watching.
BIG WOW, YOU ARE BOTH GREAT DOING THE HIKING IN A HOT PLACE, BIG SALUTE TO YOU BOTH, STAY SAFE AND GOD BLESS YOU BOTH
True story, it’s very hot, we’re used to hiking in the cold ☺️
Thank you for sharing with us this memorable experience with you. Your drone shots are very good and amazingly beautiful. Unbelievably found in the Philippines. Surely we'll follow you to your other adventures in other breathtaking places in the Philippines.
Thanks so much - this place should be on everyone’s bucketlist when coming to the Philippines ♥️
Wonderful views guys! It looks beautiful. Cheers from Canada!
Hi there! Yes indeed, such a beautiful place 😍
What a lovely vlog. Very relaxing footage 🤘Felt like I was hiking with you🔥🔥New fan from Bangalore 😍😍
Thanks so much - happy to hear you enjoyed it! It is an amazing place in the Philippines, we realised the landscape kind of reminded us of our home country landscapes (sometimes even at 10.000km away subconsciously you’re looking for familiar places)
Wow, Bangalore - would love to explore one day 😍
Pinatubo is amazing ❤❤
It is, it looks like a scene from one of the movies 😁😍
Enjoy and keep safe from Philippines.
Thank you!
The Mt Pinatubo is one of the active volcano in the Philippines the drone potage absolutely stunning the crater lake look's so beautiful thank you for sharing with us and to the world watching again here in Dubai UAE Maraming salamat PO
So happy you enjoyed the video, we surely enjoyed the trip to Mt Pinatubo ♥️
Always press the like button. Hope your channel will get more views, likes and subscribers. Love from former Filipino living now in texas, USA
Thanks so much, appreciate it! 🥰
New subrscriber...Enjoy your adventures in the Philippines.....love to see where you're going next.....Be Safe...
Thanks so much! Hope you’ll enjoy the upcoming content ☺️
Just wwwoooowwwww
That's what we said too! :)
I've been there once long time ago really beautiful but my favorite part is the 4×4 going there in the early morning while watching the sunrise 😌 Guys if you like adventure and off the beaten path with lots of hidden gems explore the cagayan valley region or Occidental/Oriental Mindoro, Palaui island in Cagayan and Tambaron island in Mindoro is a must see and there's so much more to explore there with few or mostly no tourists!
The entire journey was so beautiful. Can’t wait for the dry season to be able to do more 🥰
Wow! Felicitari amandoi pentru ca ati venit din Romania si ati facut drumetii in varful acestui vulcan! Fii mereu în siguranță!👍
Multumim mult! ♥️
@@roamaniacs Mulțumesc!👍💗
It's more fun in the Philippines
I couldn’t agree more!
After a long hours of walking so sad that u guys were not able to swim and enjoy the freedom to do everything that u have wished to do on ur hiking adventure there on Mt. Pinatubo but yet I hope u guys have still enjoyed ur hiking experience out there.
We were not upset at all about this, I think it's safer for everyone not to swim in the crater lake - the scientists there were really nice and explained us how on the other side the water temperature is rising, although for now there is no reason to worry, but activity there still is under.
And eventually on the way back the rain gave us a real good shower haha!
Mt Pinatubo is significant in world history in terms of global climate change - from Google - it lowers by 1 Deg C global temp for a year or more after this eruption - fr Tor CA
That's true, thanks for pointing it out!
You should go to Mt Taal. It's a volcano island with a lake in it and a small island while itself being an island within an island.
Thanks for the recommendation 🙏
subbed
Thanks so much!
Wow that was incredible view..but 5:30am is too early for tour...
Haha it sure is early! The first 2 hours are the jeep ride though, but it’s also not easy - shaky shaky :)
5 stars. :)
Thank you 🙏
@@roamaniacs Loved the drone shots. Will be trekking Mt Pinatubo this weekend. Thanks for the vlog.
@@mclinberghulleza6440 oh wow, happy for you! It is a magical place 🥰
BTW that place is magical like In other kind of planets. .. Can you give us ideas n share How much it cost to hike at the Crater with 4x4… someday I want to Go Visit it
The place was amazing and we would go back to Mt. Pinatubo in a heartbeat. Highly recommmend seeing this beauty at least once 😍 Next time we want to do the 2 days trek from Porac ♥️
About the cost:
If you go straight to Capas Tourism Office and book your tour there (which we don’t recommend) you will pay around 2400php per person for a private tour. A group tour is not that much cheaper per person, maybe around 1800.
But we recommend booking a tour from Manila if you don’t have your own car, it is not easy to get around the area otherwise and you’ll spend more on transportation.
It is also pretty much the same price for the tour if you join from Manila with a group and less headache :)
Beautiful but scary.
It’s very beautiful. The trek itself is fairly easy ☺️
You are in Zambales. You may visit Subic as well. 😍
Will try to 🥰
Hope you enjoy the hike! I hope that you can also visit other mountains here 🙂
Thanks! We enjoyed it, it’s unlike anything we have seen before🥰
Hiking in the PH is not easy, the humidity is next level 😄 But it’s SO worth it 🙌
@@roamaniacs yeah agree! We can never underestimate any mountains. But every adventure in this tropical island is worthwhile. Keep safe and cheers to more adventure vlogs! 🙂
@@johndaryldimalanta6871 Thanks so much!
Fue gigantesca esa Erupción 😬😬
Desgraciadamente si 🥹
I hope you visit also Mt. Apo in Davao. It is the highest peak in the Philippines.
Exploring Mindanao is a bucketlist for us definitely
So Sorry for the inconvenience
That’s ok, life’s never perfect :)
My province is capas Tarlac
That’s awesome! Glad to have locals here!
Hello Roamaniacs my friend after your visit in Cebu, Philippines , I highly recommend to proceed & explore Boracay Beach in Malay, Aklan, it is claimed to be the best beach of the world. (Check it out in RUclips) There is a direct daily flight from Cebu going to Caticlan Airport in Boracay Islands.

Thank you Jay!
That was huge Crater lake.. the top part of Mt.pinatubo blew up and created that lake... Probably lots of soil flew everywhere and the big river was gone..
Yes, along the video maybe you notices everything is still so much covered in ash..
I feel sorry for the troubles you encountered. There really is a lot of taxi scammers here even us locals can get scammed. Anyways, hope you enjoy your stay and keep safe
Oh, it was all a mix of us circumstances and sometimes dealing with the wrong people and possibly very early into the Philippines reopening (this was filmed in mid May)
We enjoyed it very much regardless of the little inconveniences - that's what travel does - pushes you into out of your comfort zone situations:)
Thanks for watching!
@@roamaniacs Oh wow. I thought you guys just got here. I didn't know you were here at the same time when the influx of foreign RUclips vloggers came here.
@@iflipover when the PH reopened we were in Sri Lanka actually ☺️
Our main purpose now was checking what we wanted ever since before our first long visit before the lockdown - see if we can make it a yearly thing to work a few months from the Philippines 🇵🇭 We worked our full time jobs ever since we got in the Philippines, working EU hours gives us a nice free time window until the afternoon to explore 🥰 Vlogging is just something we really enjoy doing, it’s a nice challenge and room for creativity
Hello. Did you use travel agency for this tour? Thanks!
Hey. We went straight to the tourism office in Capas.
Sorry for the inconveniences, inconsistencies you encountered. We hope this video reach out to our Philippine Tourism Authorities. Be also careful in renting vehicles thru app esp.when they ask for advance payment. Before going to your next destination maybe ask in advance from your followers here any tips with regard to transpo, places and other matters you need to know.
Or get info from locals where you eat, buy goods, esp. mall security guards are helpful in a particular place where you want to go. Trike drivers can help as well but use very simple English words and talk slower. Be safe and enjoy.
Thank you - we have spoken to the tourism office there is Capas - eventually they understood some of the issues but not sure if they will act upon them - there's an entire system there where everyone gets their share of money and not sure there is any real interest to bring more foreigners to visit. They gave us a refund, but on the long term the solution is to improve the services, not just give refund if someone complains..
In Capas particularly we had a hard time finding info from locals - I believe most poeple come with the pre-booked tours/vans from Manila.
Anyway, we wanted to showcase this amazing place so other foreigners will go to - it's SO jawdropping and deserves more attention.
@@roamaniacs you have a good heart and see the positive side. Thank you and bless your journey everywhere you go. Enjoy and be safe beautiful couple.
@@roamaniacs you’ve both got a great outlook on life and apply restraint when things go awry and see the bigger picture.
Sometimes though, when situations get frustrating during travelling and you’re about to pull out your hair, then out of the blue, for some reason a more wonderful scenario arises from it. (especially in the Philippines). Can’t have the good without the bad and vice versa, I guess.
Happy wandering, I’ve been watching your stories from cold Melbourne (Australia) so am rightful jealous of the weather you’re feeling. 🤗
@@maloufrigillana7445 Thanks so much - life gets a bit easier if you try to find the positive or the lesson to be learned in every situation☺️ Hope you’ll enjoy our upcoming videos too 🙌
@@asinstickyfingers8295 thank you very much.
It helps that we have worked in a very multicultural environment for years and have learnt already that what may seem natural to me, it can be outrageous to others, or what we find disappointing, other mays not realise it.
Travel surely teaches you a lot about the world and also yourself. We’ve chosen to delay a bit posting each vlog to give ourselves time to process every experience and be able to look at the whole picture as you say. This day was the most difficult one we had in the Philippines, it seemed that we were meant to meet only people who were interested in easy money. But then when we sat down at the carenderia, the lady there was so lovely, had a great chat and she also offered us mango for free just to see how it tastes with salt (we were surprised to see Filipinos eat it with salt haha)
Sending much love to Melbourne- hope you can visit the amazing Philippines soon ♥️🙌
WoW ..this looks unreal…it doesn’t look like Philippines 😍wish I could do this trip like you guys,I heard in the news that the PINATUBO explosion has helped in decreasing the GLOBAL WARMING for at least a year or two after the explosion,Bill gates is doing project to replicate same effect that can help planet EARTH ,✌🏻🇫🇷
It is an amazing place. We feel sorry for the Aeta tribe though, they are still unable to go back fully and so many of them displaced. Their bond to the area is very strong.
Hope you will be able to visit one day! 🙏
Hello, felt so sorry for you both that your guide did not tell any info at all about the soroundings nor what happened to a specific place in your path. Maybe you may tell the information office about the matter and let improved their touring events. Have their tour guides to explain more about the places they are at.
Thanks so much for your kind message. In travels there are times when unpleasant or uncomfortable things happen.
We told the tourism office there - eventually we got a refund, but I am not sure they learnt from from we told them, we got the feeling there is a “nice” system in place where everyone gets their share of money and they won’t disturb the status quo (we know this too well from our own country)
We left out the part in the video where on the way back in the rain the guide and another local who they picked up on the way sat in front with the driver under the cover, and the 2 of us sat at the back where our car didn’t even have a raincover (all other jeeps had this)
It’s not about sitting in the rain, it’s just the gesture of asking at least a lady first of she wants to sit in front and not at the back in the rain :)
Luckily we read before about the places we visit so we know what we are looking at, but usually local guides can tell a few stories more than you won’t find on the internet ☺️
Anyway we still enjoyed our day and know that when you travel things are not always perfect. 🥰
So sorry for your experience of your taxi / car ride , its unprofessional to cancel on its last minute . You could have ask assistance from the hotel you stayed in Manila.
As for having a guide going to Mt. Pinatubo crater , its the best thing to do. There are incidents that happened when local trekkers / travelled by themselves. Unfortunately for you , your guide is not the ideal one when it comes to hospitality. Maybe its his bad day.
Btw , I like the way you vlog , your so coooooL!!!! Welcome to PHL. !!!
Thanks so much - we really want our vlogs to serve as guides to others and not just show what we do in a day :) Gald you enjoy this style!
This was the time we realised it's better to go with an organised tour.
As we're usually going on hiking trips by ourselves back in Europe, it's a bit "hard" for us to go with a group as we have our own pace and habits.
But for Mt Pinatubo is not worth it because eventually you will still start the trek with everyone else (the jeep rides)
We were mostly alone because of the car that broke and we got delayed by 1 hour so everyone else was halfway through already :)
Anyway it worked out alright even DIY as it was nice to see Tarlac and eventually we explored Sitio Baag, will post that video sometime too.
@@roamaniacs , I read all your replies on every comment , & we"re almost "twins" in mindset. 😎. I do trek / travel both : w/ groups , mostly milleneals ,- half of my age & mostly outreach / missions to Our IPs . Maybe you can try it someday , its on weekends .
and by myself with a guide.
@@margaritasun7908 So please to hear, happy to have likeminded people here 😍
There's something about being out there in nature that heals all troubles of the soul. Of course, blue seas and white sand are amazing too, but in the recent years the best therapy are mountains 😍
Is it possible to fly a drone ?
We did fly the drone, the rangers didn’t say it is forbidden. Of course, always be mindful of the people around you not to disturb them or cause stress :)
Have fun if you go! 🙌
@@roamaniacs thanks for that! godbless
LOOK LIKE YOU ARE IN JURASSIC PARK
So true, the riverbed especially 😍
we have grab, it’s better. sorry for the inconvenience tho.
There was no grab coming to Capas :) We tried. It can happen, it was an isolated issue 🫶
Crater scenery
So beautiful! 😍
Are romainians europians?
Yes, it’s Eastern Europe 🇷🇴
@@roamaniacs try batangas its just near manilla and it is a good place but its too underated
I think what you ate is chicken Caldereta. Not Adobo 😅
Tasted like Adobo :))
Make a complain or suggestions, that Guide or escort should knowledgeable and inform you about the place , find someone who can understand and communicate in English, I’m so sorry guys …. Don’t give him a Tip₱…. Terrible , I can feel this couple from Romania How frustrating it is .
We complained about the situation at the Tourism Office when we returned and we got part refund. We didn’t want to cause a scene about not giving us any info on the tour, but on the way back it was raining badly and only our 4x4 out of 10 others didn’t have a rain cover at the back and our tour guide never asked my wife to sit at the front next to the driver where there was a head cover. We found this as very bad manners :)
@@roamaniacs im glad it turned ok , you guys so positive always Look In a bright side .. I think its part of adventure right? Next time we know ha ha . Stay safe always , Welcome to my Country Philippines 🇵🇭
@@cesberryu.9193 You need to learn from experience and look at the bright side too, it was an amazing place to see despite the inconveniences :) We also learned that sometimes it really is better to go on an organised tour. Usually we preffer to go alone as it takes time to film and we don’t like to make others uncomfortable or feel they are wasting their time because of us 😁
I hope you can visit soon. Let us know once you did 🥰
yes the tourist must tell about the history behind Mt Pinatubo but the guide is very far from the tourist it's to bad! Maybe the tourist guide is shy and doesn't know how to speak English
Yea I think he didn’t speak English too well, we tried to speak to him but he wasn’t engaged in the conversation.
The tourism office should have assign us a guide that speaks English, we booked ahead so they had time to assignan English speaking one:(
Annoying naman ang guide kakahiya sya
Yes probably shy, we tried to make conversation with him but he was not at all interested. And we’re smiley people :)
We feel sorry for the inconvenience caused by those greedy taxi drivers you could actually report them to LTFRB( franchise regulating agency) for their unfair practice. Anyway nice vlog. Thank you for coming to our country. Stay safe!
Thanks so much - it’s water under the bridge now. We still very much enjoyed it!♥️
