Easily one of the most beautiful and diverse islands in Greece 🇬🇷🏝️🏔️
I really love your videos, thank you for them. The production is really impressive.
I planned a road trip to Norway based on your video where you mentioned lots of great places to visit there, it was the best holiday I’ve ever had.
Ah that’s awesome! Where was your favorite place in Norway?
@@RyanShirley Walking around Lovatnet lake, taking the cable car to an unbelievable restaurant in Loen at the top of the mountains, and just stopping off when we were driving, to marvel at the beauty of the place, and feeling so relaxed and at one with the world!
Great to see more from you Ryan! I see Crete as one of the most blessed places on earth: almost year-round sunshine, no deadly animals, abundant fresh water supply from many springs, rich soil for the tastiest produce and more history than anywhere I can think of...that's not even counting the diversity of landscapes + beaches!!!
You couldn’t have said it better! The Mediterranean islands are truly special
Crete was stunning!!🤩 already want to go back
Best food and beaches! ☺️🏖️
Great Video about Crete!
I'm always so impressed by your videos Ryan. Your top picks are always 100% sincere and personal, never influenced solely by a place's hype or popularity. I really respect that and am kicking myself for not subscribing sooner. Stay awesome brother and keep up the stellar work!
Bro I’m so stoked you found my channel! Is there any place you’d like to see a video on?
@@RyanShirley My man, I don't even know where to begin! I'm passionate about travel, and my expertise is on islands and coastal towns, especially those of the Mediterranean and Caribbean. Nevertheless, immediately off the top of my head, one place I think would suit your adventurous spirit spectacularly is the French island of Réunion in the Indian Ocean. It gets the Jurassic Park award for being like the Himalayas but crazily it's in the tropics. Likely the most impressive mountains on any island I've ever seen in the world, kinda like Kauai's more exotic older brother...yet good luck trying to find much high-quality video on it, at least in English.
Not many people in the West go here (mostly French tourism) but damn, you could do some damage here with your lovely drone-centric style. Forget its mediocre beaches, go inland! There is jaw-dropping footage at every turn with such geological diversity. It's hard to find quality sharp footage on TH-cam, but doing a quick search I found this one video that at least gives you a small taste of its many diverse regions: th-cam.com/video/ITSr0tdyHc0/w-d-xo.html.
If this island doesn't speak to you, then next in my head is not too far from Reunion: the Dragon Blood Tree Forest of Sokotra, Yemen! or.. or... (head explodes) haha. There are just too many cool places to list! Dont get me started haha.
Amazing places!👍😍
We Always Welcoming For Your Video Bro
I'm here as I travel to Crete in 2 days, first time going and I cannot wait... Finding your video here today feels like destiny. I'll be sure to make this my bucket list while there.
Thanks Ryan! 🙌

@@RyanShirley Santorini
Amazing🤩
Thanks so much friend! I need to come back to Switzerland soon
I really love your video
Ah that makes me so happy to hear ☺️
Fantastic, great job Ryan. I love Crete, I visited the island four times 🙂
Wow you’ve been a ton! What part of Crete is your favorite?
There are many such places 🙂
What a fantastic travel guide to Crete! The island is truly stunning, and your video beautifully captures its beauty and history. From the crystal-clear waters of Elafonissi beach to the fascinating fortress island of Spinalonga, Crete has so much to offer. My favorite place in Crete has to be Elafonissi beach - it’s simply breathtaking. Thanks for sharing this amazing guide Ryan! Such an awesome video!
Cheers,
Simon - Tales From Abroad
Thanks so much Simon for your kind words! Where are you from?
@@RyanShirley I’m from Denmark ☺️
Wow Crete is stunning. You’ve shown so much that I’ve never seen. I must go there. Definitely want to see part II, unless I beat you there 😛
Bro Crete is waiting for you! Definitely a different vibe compared to Milos but epic place nonetheless!
Crete looks amazing in every speck of it.
It’s a incredible island with so much to offer!
Very interesting
Thanks friend
A secret getaway! Soooo amazing!
It really is paradise! 🇬🇷🏝️
That water is so beautiful!!! Got to see Greece soon! I love the history in your videoes!! Great job Ryan. Be so nice to just set and have dinner looking at those views!Balos Beach looks out of this world !
Bro you’d absolutely love Greece! A stark contrast from Ireland and Iceland 😁 looking forward to your Iceland video!
@@RyanShirley it sure looks like it! Thanks Ryan !!
Love to see your videos. Love from India❤
Thanks friend! Hope to visit your country soon
Love Crete 😍 get a car and explore this beautiful place
I couldn’t recommend that more! You learn the un said driving rules of Crete fast 😅
Crete is really big for an Aegean island and has so many great beaches and places to see. Being into archeology and ancient civilizations, i've visited the Minoan Palace of Knossos (partly reconstructed), and also the Herakiion archeological Museum. There's also Roman ruins at Gortyna. The town of Rethymnon is interesting for its Old Town with its cobblestone streets. Samaria Gorge National Park is stunning. As usual a great video.
Thanks John! That’s awesome you visited the Minoan Palace! I wish I would have went there and Samaria gorge! Hope your having a great summer so far, always love reading your comments.
Love from India ❤
Thanks friend! I need to come to India soon
Favourite Greek island
Always feels like home
Been there for 4 times ❤️
Wow that’s awesome! What part of Crete is your favorite?
@@RyanShirley In the west are more crystal sandy beaches ,top ones .Just love them because I think Crete can conquer with everything else ,but in the east are also magical places, like Vai beach ,the biggest palm tree forest in Europe .I have a blog from there ,
In the east my favourite beach is Voulisma 🏖️
Nice video! Try to visit Listis Beach next time and more of Cretan mountains
I’d love to check it out next time! And see more mountains also
I absolutely should visit Crete 😍
I hope you can go soon 😁🇬🇷
Thank you for the wealth of information! We are going there in September for our 30th Anniversary.
I’m jealous! You’re going to have a amazing time 🇬🇷🏝️
Good luck!
Thanks friend
Hey Ryan ❤ I just love your videos specially which covers mountains and Cliff
Thanks so much friend! Is there any place you’d like to see a video on?
@@RyanShirley yeah india definitely .. Foreign TH-camrs does not show the different terrain and diverse culture of these country
@@RyanShirley i really expect that from you ❤ and i hope we will meet soon
One Of My Favourite European Country Greece 🇬🇷 Bro
I agree!
so pretty! Greece has so much beauty and diversity that is unexpected in such a compact area. Pleas do Alaska or Patagonia next🙏
I’ll try to go to Patagonia this year 😁
@@RyanShirley Yes!!!!
Шикарная съемка🤝👍👌💪🤙
Thanks friend!
Awsome video bro! I visited a couple of years ago and it was a very nice island, but I didn’t get to experience as much as you. I have to go back one day!
That’s awesome Klaus! What parts of Crete did you visit? And got any exciting travel plans for the rest of summer?
@@RyanShirley From your video we did Preveli- and Matala beach. So cool places. Did you manage to visit Knossos Palace which is the home of the Minotaur Labyrinth?
In 10 days I’m going to explore Romania a bit and probably also Albania. Where’s your next adventure?
Oh dude Albania and Romania sound epic! Excited to see where you go there! I might be heading back to the Faroe Islands soon 😅 really miss the landscapes and fish and chips there
@@RyanShirley Ohh Faroe Islands ❤ I also miss it so much. So calming there and epic landscapes that just call for adventure. I might go there early autumn with my friend who was rasied on the islands.
If you have time go there for the 29th of July - it is the national Faroe Island day and it will be a blast and cultural experince in Torshavn.
Another amazing video! Thank you Ryan 🌟 May I ask, how long do you stay in each destination (in this case Crete), to be able to produce a video like this?
About a week!
@@RyanShirley That's amazing! I also usually spent around 1 week in each place I visit and it feels super rushed.. I guess I still need to learn how to optimise my time with filming! Thanks for sharing 😊
Our trips to Greece might've overlapped! Just got back from Crete, Milos, and Athens. Sadly our ferry to Santorini got cancelled due to winds so we had to skip that leg of our trip :'( My heart is left in Chania! Our fav spot was Kourtaliotiko Gorge and then Kalypso Beach! Wish we made it to Seitan for the goats hehe
That’s awesome you were just there! I wish I would’ve went to that gorge and Kalypso! It looks beautiful
Best wishes from Athen
Thanks Uwe, great to hear from you! That’s awesome you are in Greece
Welcome to our beautiful island
What part of Crete are you from?
@@RyanShirley From Rethymnon. I live close to the city center.
I love your cliff jumps man! Have you ever jumped off the mostar old bridge?
Dude I haven’t yet! I’d love to, it is a bit high though 😅
@@RyanShirley haha you better send your famous gainer off of it!
Knossos is also very impressive 👍
I wish I would’ve went there! Looks really fascinating with the Minoan palace
Awesome video Ryan! Where did you stay?
Thanks so much! I stayed in a Airbnb near Falasarna Beach.
Hey Ryan, great video! How many days do you think are enough to visit all these places?
Thanks so much Chris! In a week you could see a good amount, two weeks if you really want to take your time.
Love form Bangladesh
Il est clair que les stations balnéaires de Kieta sont bonnes et qu'il y a ici de nombreuses sources propres et de belles plages, elles doivent donc être protégées afin de ne pas détruire la couche d'ozone
I’ll have to check it out next time
Loutro was our favorite area of all of Greece that we visited...think of it often! Such a neat area.
That’s awesome you were at Loutro! Definitely one of Crete’s gems 💎🇬🇷
Just an observation if there's a cliff and water below our boy Ryan is jumping btw how was the food on Crete Thanks Ryan
Haha I’m always looking for a good cliff jump spot!
And the food was amazing, some of the best I’ve had. Such fresh olive oil, vegetables and fish! Had Greek salads daily
Samaria Canyon? I was there a few years ago.
I should’ve included it, how did you like it?
@@RyanShirley It was beautiful, but I developed back problems on the way down and had to be hauled out of the canyon on a mule!
And Samaria gorge! In my opinion best of the best
I regret not visiting it! The gorge looks amazing
Samaria Gorge hike should have been on this list.
I definitely should have included it! I gotta hike it next time
@@RyanShirley oh its worth it, i think its my nr 1 on crete
Hello brother ;) I'm going to Turkey (Alanya) in a few days, I'm going to Cappadocia too 😊This question has probably been asked many times, but what editing program do you use?😊
I use Adobe premiere
Thank you 😊@@RyanShirley
Make sure you trek down Samaria Gorge next time
I really wish I went there! Looks amazing
Ryan, why are some movies so long and some movies so short?
It depends on how many places I include and some are just easier to talk about and I have more to share vs others
@@RyanShirley Your films are wonderful and you were very generous with France lol.
👍
Didn't your face sting when you jumped into the sea? I'm scared to jump into the water. My face stings so much lol !!
It wasn’t too high so it didn’t 😅 but maybe if it was higher it could
Hey Ryan! Love the channel. Just got back from Tanzania and loved watching your Tanzania video ahead of time! Question for you: which drone are you currently flying? And do you shoot videos in RAW and then color correct or shoot in normal? I have a DJI Mini 3 Pro and it works well but I’m looking to improve. Thanks Ryan! Big fan of your work
Bro that’s awesome you were in Tanzania! Probably my favorite place I’ve been! I usually just film in normal profile, I’m not a huge fan of dlog, and you can always upgrade to the newer bigger models
No Samaria Gorge?
I really wish I could’ve visited the gorge! Looks incredible
Bro you are ryan6daysaweek right?
No who’s that?
How do you manage your safety in other countries specially when you are with your partner
Crete was super safe! But in general I avoid cities and am mindful if I’m walking around anywhere after dark.
You definitely cannot leave Crete without visiting Palace of Minos
I’m mad at myself for not going there! Looks awesome and fascinating
😂Hello My sokhuom i am Cambodia i like your video. So much.
