    I heard one of the reasons why tickets were expensive was because of limited flights to control the number of people visiting the place. Imagine what will happen if throngs of tourists invade the islands due to cheap flights. It makes sense to me.

    • @TravelGretl
      @TravelGretl  8 лет назад +10

      to me too! If your main sellingpoint is a virgin island, you can't let it get overrun :)

    • @chrismartin1539
      @chrismartin1539 8 лет назад +23

      You are correct. The towns of Batanes are mindful of the number of visitors that they get. It is increasing every year! The mayors were setting a maximum number of people that they thought they could accommodate without doing any harm to their environment. I kinda agree with them.

    • @melvingabriel9518
      @melvingabriel9518 6 лет назад +3

      yes it's true for them to limit the number of tourist going there since the Island can't accommodate more tourist and also to protect the Island for environmental pollution like human waste and among others...

      +Travel Gretl Have you seen TimGloAdventures' trip to Batanes? They also went back to the Philippines around July last year just for the sole purpose of going to Batanes, haha! They made a fun & entertaining vlog about Batanes just like yours. I have to say that you are such a good storyteller! That & your great editing skills made this vlog so perfect. I love the music that you put in this vlog which complements the beautiful scenery & eases one's mind. It was like I was I watching a beautiful short film/documentary. You are that good!!! I appreciate the effort & hardwork that put in making & producing this vlog. Thank you!! The Philippines will be happy to have you back again in the near future. Trust me, you haven't seen the best of it yet, haha! 😘👍👏

    • @TravelGretl
      @TravelGretl  8 лет назад

      +RM Alfaro yes! Thank you, that's what I remember :) i knew it was one of the boys traveling a lot of the Philippines too. And thank you for the big compliment!! Really appreciated ☺️

    • @rm_alfaro
      @rm_alfaro 8 лет назад

      +Travel Gretl TimGloAdventures actually is a couple, haha! You should check out their channel. They also make fun & entertaining vlogs. I think they been to the Philippines three times in a period of just one & a half year, haha! I think Tim & Glo really liked the Philippines. Their last trip was their Batanes trip which coincided with a typhoon in Batanes, haha! It was still an awesome trip though, haha!☺️

      Except you cannot live there. Batanes is under Republic Act no. 8371 which protects the indigenous people and their land. If you are not an ivatan, there's no way you can live in Batanes.
