Those who drove enjoyed the journey much more until they arrived in Clark and had a hard time finding a convenient place to park their cars. Many had to walk a long way to get to and from the hot air balloon site. For the 2012 Philippines Hot Air Balloon Fiesta in Clark, a special Hot Air Balloon Festival bus service was added. Participants can now board the bus in one of the designated pickup locations in Metro Manila, enjoy the 70-minute journey and arrive fresh and ready to enjoy the Hot Air Balloon festival.
