Mount Pinatubo ascent, even if it did mean getting up very early. The ascent itself was a doddle, but we feared something much tougher as we had to have a medic with us and they threatened to take our blood pressure first (but didn't). It was enjoyable as there weren't too many other people at the top.

Loved it all, few people on our trip didn't know about the extension going to Bohol, you might want to make that more clear.
