Global Travel Stories
Новая Зеландия
Добавлен 17 дек 2018
My name is Shane and for the past 17 years I have lived as a Global Traveler, exploring 76 countries from all 7 continents. Now I’m joined with my fiance' Miranda (known as Chickie).
As my obsession for exploration developed so did my passion for Active Adventures. Whenever we are traveling we seek out some of the most enticing, challenging activities and epic locations to discover and explore.
I have lived in Australia, Canada, Colombia, Germany and now reside in New Zealand. In 2023 we visited our final continent Antarctica!
I created this Channel to showcase some of these unique locations and experiences with the hopes to inspire others to get outdoors and to travel.
These are my Global Travel Stories.

Such a beautiful and informative video
Thank you ☺️
Wonderful video
Thank you very much!
This video brought me so much relief when i was having anxiety attacks. Think its my 5th time watching. Thank u so much; ur videos are amazing
That’s so great to hear, what was it that was worrying you if you don’t mind me asking?
@GlobalTravelStories work problems, your video gave me a few hours of relief, thank you
That’s awesome to hear it helped. Means a lot to us. I hope things get better for you 😊. All the best for 2025!
@GlobalTravelStories thank you, wishing the both of you a great 2025 too
Love from Bangladesh ❤
Thank you!
This is by far the best made video on the Inca Trail with wonderful and very instructive narrations on the history of Machu Pichu. Can’t wait to experience this amazing wonder of the world in person.
Thank you, that’s a huge compliment! I hope you have as an amazing experience as we did!
These are adults larping
An incredible experience that every true fan should have on their bucket list!
Thank you milady!
The whole tour, the guides, the presentation, just like the landscape - Remarkables. Can't wait to experience it again.
Many many thanks, this means so much to us! 🙏
Writing an epic fantasy, this is just what I need, wow so much inspo! I'll be in QT in April so hoping you & Fracesco have some bookings available. Hope a journal & lots of photo taking is okay? Is there wine?
We will always have space for you guys.. looking forward to hosting you in Middle Earth!
When I think of India only one thing comes to my mind, that men selling Kachori in the street poisoning every brave tourist that decide to die trying his disgusting food 🤮
My friends also got married at Stoneridge Estate. It's such an amazing and beautiful venue. The fireplace was a very welcome feature since it was a winter wedding.
Oh that’s epic, love hearing that. We are very excited!
Beautiful country.
Agreed! We love it here!
The wedding venue is so charming-absolutely love it! ❤ And such great memories from the pie festival in Arrowtown- we showed some killer moves! 💃
You guys are gonna have to teach us some of those moves for the wedding!
❤
Wow! wish I could be like you
There are many beautiful places out there to explore!
Omg so glad you made it back ok on your kayak. I have never been kyacking before and definitely won’t try that alone.
So am I! Yeah definitely go with someone experienced. I usually river kayak so it’s a bit different but the biggest issue was that plug wasn’t put in. Definitely checking every time now!
I want to take women on in ths wrestling .
Interesting..
Thanks for sharing the video. It's an awesome trip! My friend and I plan to go soon. May I ask where do you guys park your car before your departure? Is it a safe area to leave the luggage in car overnight?
Hey you’re more than welcome! The parking spot is at the Fantail Falls car park. Should be absolutely safe overnight, never heard of any crime there. Lock up and take precautions as always but should be fine!
Great video! What company did you use in Puno to do the floating islands
Thank you! I’ve put links to all the tour providers for your convenience. Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions!
This has been the best video I’ve watched on the Inca Trail! Look forward to watching more of your content! Thanks!
Thank you for the epic compliment! Plenty more content on here and plenty more to come. We hope you enjoy it just as much as this video!
Beautiful footage and quality video as always. Really enjoy your videos!
Thank you, plenty more to come!
Thanks for this (and your other videos). Super informative for those of us planning trips and breathtaking. Cheers from California.
Thanks for that, hope you guys have an epic trip!
Wow ❤❤ Amazing 🎉
Such a magical place! 🙌
It says on Doc it is a marked track. Do you go off the track or
It is a marked track but it’s not completely maintained so often it’s “choose your own adventure” style trekking
@ oh yup so just a classic NZ tramping track . Ka pai
Stunning countryside and fantastic walks. Very well presented.
Thank you ☺️
Wow, that an amazing trip! Thanks for taking us along your lakeside hike and sharing all the histories of the area.
You’re more than welcome, this was a very special video for us. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Zue Znl. Fresh.. Peaceful and very beautiful forest. ❤
One of the most pristine places on earth!
Thank you for a great video.Im heading to Peru next year and you covered many places that I want to go to.reignited my enthusiasm as I thought that my age might stop me.
We are so glad to hear that, we hope you have the best experiences as it truly is an amazing country, don’t forget to check our other videos in Peru and most importantly have the best time!
Beautiful scenery and camera work. Absolutely stunning area. Thanks for sharing
You’re welcome, nature did all the hard work.. I just captured it!
Copacabana is a beautiful place nice hotels nice restaurants. Then take the boat out to the islands of sun with Inca ruins. Your video is really well done I love watching them.
Thank you, such an amazing place. We will never forget!!

I grew up in South America Bolivia in the Amazon basin. We used to drink copoasu all the time. It's very good and it does look like a coconut but it's not. It's extremely healthy for you and it's much better than drinking all the soda drinks what we drink. Unfortunately Bolivian's love their Coca-Cola.
We loved Copoasu, tried it many times when we visited the Amazon in Brazil. Far better than Coca-Cola. Unfortunately the world is obsessed with soda drinks, the natural ones are much better. We loved visiting you country!
We tried Copoasu in the Brazilian Amazon, absolutely delicious. Far better than Coca-Cola. We loved visiting your country!

it was a bay at one time beleive it or not . salt wather fish hmmm why i know
Which place? Titicaca?
would have liked to see more of shortcut route.. we are starting track tomorrow and "shortcut" to avoid avalanche is the route we take, this downhill section makes me nervous
I personally don’t remember it being super difficult. If conditions are fine I’m sure you’ll be ok, if it’s raining just take it carefully..
@GlobalTravelStories we had awesome weather. Track would have been quite different if we had been walking when 197mm fell the very next day after we finished. The shortcut was shorter and better than i expected, however my expectations were low so quite possibly anything was better. Fantastic walk if you get the view we did at the pass.
@@jillbush4750 makes all the difference, yeah that shortcut isn’t a big deal. People doing the alternative route over Dore Pass from the Milford Road are in for a rough ride!
Thank you for all of your efforts in this video! So informative. The Grand Canyon (USA) is definitely not one of the 4 deepest canyons in the world, Copper Canyon in Mexico is #5, and the Grand Canyon ranks as #6 I believe. I hope you will have a trip to the Copper Canyon in Mexico - it is quite special! Working my way through your Peru and Bolivia videos. Much appreciated!
Thank you for the information.. copper canyon is definitely on the list for my next trip in Mexico, I have done the south, centre and Baja extensively so I definitely feel like it’s the highlight I am missing. We hope to do the copper canyon train in the next few years. Are you planning a trip to Peru and Bolivia? Beautiful places!
@@GlobalTravelStories yes, in May / June. I live in Mexico so it's not too far to go!
@ Son Países muy bonitos.. Disfruta la aventura!!
Thank you, we will be doing same except on Regent Seven Seas Splendor in December 2025. BTW, Miranda has beautiful eyes.
You’re welcome, yes she certainly does! Enjoy your adventure, Antarctica is truly the last frontier on earth!
Did you actually step foot on land in Antarctica?
Unfortunately not, the only downside to being on our budget. We are happy we got to see it though. Hopefully someday we can explore more on foot!
Las cataratas es de Argentina y Brasil bienvenidos 😊
Sí vistamos ambos, mi segunda vez. Las cataratas son muy bonitas!
Cool. I'm working on our Alaska trip. Can you provide a little more details how to get this "double Denali" package. Is the Airplane extra or included? How much was it?
Sounds like you’ve got a great trip ahead of you. We just booked the double Denali package right off the Holland America Website with the cruise. The flight isn’t included, you have to book that one off the airlines website. Hope you have an amazing time. I highly recommend both upgrades!
@@GlobalTravelStories Thank you. I can't find "double Denali" package. On the video I see you traveled by train. It was part of package? And the "snow" airplane was in the package or separate extra?
@@maciuspierwszy7569 Hi, just did a quick search on the Holland America website. Looks like they have since changed the name to “Ultimate Denali”, however the itinerary looks identical. The rail was included however we booked the flights through Air Talkeetna. Their updated price would be on their website. Here is a link to the itinerary www.hollandamerica.com/en/find-a-cruise/a5s07bd3l/n533
Great Shots! Ill be there some Day!
Thank you, we welcome you to our beautiful town!
Great memories! New Year's Eve in Queenstown was amazing - great vibes and beautiful fireworks night
Looking forward to it again this year! Plenty of BBQ’s this summer too!
Congratulations on the engagment! I am so thrilled you chose to propose in my home country. Im Australian, born and raised, but raised by Bolivian parents who have taken me back every few years, tho not since 2019. i really miss it, i hope to go back soon. Your journey has been such a joy to watch🎉 Love from a 20 year old Bolivian Australian ❤
Gracias that means alot, as an Australian born and raised living permanently in NZ I know what it’s like having your heart in 2 countries. Isla del Sol is such a special place, I hope you get a chance to go back and visit Bolivia soon.. We have alot of big adventures to come and our wedding next year to look forward to so we will keep our RUclips family updated along the way. All the best!
Awesome vlog! Thank you for sharing your adventure with such clarity of presentation and loaded content. I could feel your passion for what you do.
Thank you, we really do love travel and exploration. We have plenty of big adventures to come so we hope you enjoy those too!
A few clicks south of the equator? What map are you looking at? 😅
Probably should’ve said North of the Tropic of Capricorn and South of the Equator to avoid confusion
@@GlobalTravelStories We are in Copacobana now, your video was a great guide.
Hope you have an amazing time there!
Great video mate! Made it look so easy 😂
Yeah I cut out all the bits of us breaking down in tears about the possibility of amputation our butts!
Awesome video - we're doing this trip from Sydney, Aus 2025 and it's been soooooo hepful! Thank you :)
No worries, glad to help.. the Rockies truly is a special place, I’m glad I’ve been able to have the opportunity to live there for a bit and show it off like a semi local!
I really enjoyed watching your content / vlog really so much you are so blessed that you're able to visit , witnessed , commune to the most beautiful sites that nature can offer with all it's wonders the wildlife the forests the rivers of course the falls itself so awesone so pretty majestic incredible fantastic that is really my wish that i can visit those places coz' I love nature but only in my dreams .
Thank you so much, these things are our passion. I’m not sure where you live but my love of nature really started at home, going on small trips to nearby national parks and exploring. I believe every country has something unique to offer so even starting at home if you can’t travel you may find a lot of beauty. For now we are happy to provide you with some inspiration. All the best!
Nice video, what time of year was it when you did this?
Thank you, this was late April last year.. perfect time to do it!
Enjoyable watch again. Lovely music at approx. 12:00. What is it please. Thank you.
Thank you. RUclips used to post the music but it doesn’t seem to anymore. I’ll have to check my editing program when I get a chance and let you know. Not sure if you can Shazam it as it’s copyright free music.
