I'm going for 2 weeks
Flying in to Athens. Getting the metro to Piraeus Port, catching the fast ferry .Will definitely be doing some island hopping and a day trip back to Athens, perfect base to see the real Greece ❤
Drew.. I like the video, but as someone who's trying to figure out where to go on the island and what to see, It would be super helpful if you would tell the name of the city you're in and the beach you're on and what restaurants you ate at that you thought were good. Also great to know, what is the name of the port you arrived at and if that's where you rented the scooter. There are three on the island as I understand.
August is our busiest month... And we mostly don't go running around in the heat during the afternoon... That's why you found the streets not so busy..
Also because the Greeks dont go up mountains much. It ain't their style whatever the time of day ;)
And the streets are busy in the summer. Dont talk nonsense.
Beautiful country!😊
I live here. Winters are the best when everyone is gone
Same
Can you advice me where to go ? And how I can spend the day there (without car…) 😅
I love my island!
I just arrived 2 days ago here, in Aegina, and I have 10 more days in front. Beautiful island, indeed.
I was there in 1993 & loved it too.
Have been there myself in the early 90's and it still looks the same which is amazing to see, It would of been good for you to mention of the places where you where at rather than saying "over the other side of the island and in the main town"... but good video.
I love Aegina 🙏🏻💙☀️
Hello Can you tell me name of the beach which is in time 1:36 please? Thank you
A good honest interpretation of angina off there tomorrow
Right on! Hope you enjoy!
Aegina is a great place to just chill out and use as a base to visit other Islands and Athens Drew. I stayed at a village called Souvala in the north east. It was heaven. The local people were great. The owners and staff of the Milos Hotel were wonderful. The tavernas were top notch and although the idea of drinking resinated wine might seem a bit oh oh, it works well in the heat of the summer. Getting Gyros from a fast food joint is an inexpensive and none too shabby option as well. From Aegina I visited Poros, Hydra, Athens, Mycenae and ancient Corinth by Flying Dolphin Hydrofoil or ferry trip. Steer clear of the hydrofoil if the Med is on the rough and choppy side of a day. The Brits don't call it the vomit comet for nothing. For those who don't want to risk ending up needing skin grafts after risking two wheel transport, there's a good bus service, or reasonably priced taxis to get around. Ouzo? Ouzo gets you drunk from the lips down??? Your head still seems clear, but your mouth encrypts any words that come out of it like an enigma machine. I loved it there! You're right Drew, it is under rated, but not by anybody who's been there.
Right on!
Πολυ ωραια παρουσιαση μπραβω. να πας και σε αλλα δυο νησια κοντα ειναι και αυτα υδρα και σπετσες .
Aegina island if I am not mistaken is where the St. Nektarios' relics are. Why didn't you go to the monastery. BIG MISS!
What company did you use for your rental?
Are Filipinos able to rent mopeds too?
A long way from Pittsburg! I see you, my dude! Fun video... Cheers to you, traveler! ✈
Thanks man! You as well
which beach were you at in the last clip of the video?
I believe Kamares Beach
If you died and came here i would believe in heaven ,what a gorgeous place ,the air must be fresh ,a day like this. You are so lucky my friend great video 🙏🍺 to you and a happy life.drew I saw your pizza review it was spot on ,of Pittsburgh best pizza.👍
Yes it was awesome!
Hey great video! How much did the rental for the scooter costs?
About $30 I think
@@DrewAddisand what rental place did you use? Reading some sketchy reviews about some of them
Did you visit Agia Marina ?
At the beginning of the vid is agia marina
Something I forgot to mention that never comes up on Aegina videos, you may or may not find interesting Drew. At the south end of the island there is a massive cavern in a cliff face. It's not natural. The Germans built it during the WW2 occupation. It used to hold 2 very large guns. There were access points above, but they are not accessible. The islanders don't view it as a tourist attraction and I don't blame them. I only found it by accident after hiring a boat. I took one look at it and it seemed pretty clear to me I was looking at Alistair McLean's inspiration for the guns of navarone. If anyone goes looking for it, try not to stall your engine in front of a very large ship like this fool did. They don't like it and make a lot of very loud noise. ☹
what is the rent for the scooter for a day?
It was about €25. Very affordable!
Hey, where did you rent out that scooter???
@@greiskasofo7790 I believe it's called sunrise scooters. It's a place right on the main street once you get off the ferry.
My island! My name Egina
There are a lot of hidden gems that you didnt found in aegina...next time maybe
Genuine question: Why does every travel vlogger insist on being in 90% of the video, covering most of the screen. They're the least interesting thing about the video.
Oh dear, it’s pronounced ‘Egg-inna’. And to be more specific the letter “gamma” is a soft g from the back of the throat.
It’s pronounced “eh-hee-nah”
Aegina is pronounced EGG-IN-A stress on first syllable. Do your homework if you're making a video.
what about Perdika...
I'm kidding, I enjoyed the video regardless of the pronunciations
I know right, lovely guy, good videos but how many content makers don’t even try to pronounce places, names etc as they are said locally. So frustrating.
Why do these videos without knowing how to pronounce the name. It’s so irritating .It’s pronounced eggina.
For the love of all that is holy, get a GoPro and the appropriate holder. It's incredibly irresponsible (and illegal) to drive a scooter with one hand just so that you can hold a bleeping phone/camera with the other. You might hurt or kill someone doing such stupid stuff.
I think he was using a GoPro, but yes I had the same thought. I rented a moped in Greece for the first time this year and the roads are so bumpy that I would never have one hand off the controls at any time. Unlike the locals however, I've seen them riding with no helmet, one-handed, on the phone, with a coffee and usually a carrier bag or some package between their feet!
