Crete took me completely by surprise, the variety of food, landscapes en kind people is just insane! can't wait to go back! Check out some photo's on my Instagram: instagram.com/bertchristiaens/ Thanks for the lovely words!
Crete is such a beautiful and lovely place. I would like to stay and spend my entire life in Greece. I agree I was wrong most beautiful place in this world is Greece not Switzerland. Beautiful islands of Greece are so enchanting. "Incredible Crete".
I love to stay in Crete, I have been there 3 years in a row, only last year I couldn´t and this summer is soooo unsure because of the virus and travel restrictions. I am from Norway and have greek family there - sometimes family is who is in your heart, not by blood. I will come back, be sure!
@@BertChristiaens I was so lucky this summer to have tickets in the little slot in end of July till mid August, when it opened up for some travel, so my daughter and I was happy to go for 15 days on a marvellous, but different holiday; first time in Paleochora and Loutro, fantastic! I certainly hope the vaccines will be effective soon, so things can go back to normal in all countries around the world.
@@jorunn62 Wow Amazing! I also planned a trip to Greece, but sadly enough it was canceled by the government of Belgium :( I'm also waiting for everything to go back to normal. It's been 7 month's I didn't travel! I'm really in need of some good sun & beautiful landscapes :p great to hear you had a good time in Paleochora and lotro, it's on my list!
@@BertChristiaens About 5 years we almost did, but then the financial crisis hit Greece. We chickened out 😉. But we still love it and have many friends there. Home away from home.
am planning my trip in September and I would need your advice. Near the village of Amari, do you know Amari Dam Reservoir (the water reservoir I think) present in this beautiful video? thank you very much and have a nice day 💙🦉🇬🇷
Thank you for a beautiful view of crete and sharing your experiences. I have been to crete but didn’t know such amazing places,towns, villages etc existed. 👏👏👏🥰🥰🥰🤩🤩🤩
This is fantastic!! I was lucky enough to stay in Kastelli Pediados for 7 years. Went to elementary school there. Wonderful memories!! Been to every place in this video. Beautifully done. Thank you for putting this together!!!! Εκπληκτικό βίντεο!!!
Hello Bert! Your video is absolutely beautiful! You made a wonderful work and showed marvelously lots of places! As I understand, you stayed for two months in Crete! I wish you to realize your dream and live there one day! You have a new (Greek) follower, stunned by the quality of your images!
Hello Thank you very much for your superb video. I am a Greek at heart and I have my little house in Crete. I would like to visit the island more and looking at your landscapes, I did not know where Plakias Rock was: it is a magnificent place. Continue to make us dream.
@@BertChristiaens I was stationed in the Air Force there and it was a great time. We were able to hunt partridge in the mountains, scuba dive at places, body surf and explore all over the Island. We camped at Vai and walked to a nearby village and attended a wedding reception and there was no electricity there at the time. We would sneak girls into the Minoan Palace at night to show it to them. The meals and the wine were so precious. I took my wife to Crete 20 years later as I was not married while there and she also fell in love with the place. However, it sure had changed on the North side. Glad you had a great time there. Frank
I rarely comment on videos but for you I have to make an exception. I visited Crete for the first time in July and immediately fell in love with the place and its people. You perfectly captured the atmosphere of the island and landed some amazing shots! This really felt good to watch and brought back beautiful memories :) When did you film the footage, the lighting is great and the beaches so empty :D
Hi Bert. Lovely video of Crete. I went here some years back, sadly before I owned a drone! Now I’ve seen your video I want to revisit! Have subscribed 👍🏻 Jackie
Hey, thanks for your nice comment, Crete is indeed a nice place to visit, let me know when you are there :) I'm maybe planning to go there for some months
@@BertChristiaens fantastic!! My best holiday we had there, ramshackle little villa on the beach, opposite an island. And a fab hike through the Samaria Gorge. Cheers Bert, have a super week 👍🏻👍🏻
Fantastic video and shots Bert. I can't believe it was done on a Mavic Air, it looks like a Mavic Pro 3 or something. What time of year were you there?
I gotta say, I've seen many videos of Crete on RUclips but this one is very special. The way you shot landscapes truly reflects the beauty of the island. The information on screen was appreciated too. I've learned things that even I didn't know and I'm from Crete haha. Next time try to explore more of Chania and Agios Nikolaos if its possible. 😁 P.s The music made this even more of a stunning video.
Hey, Thanks for your nice words! this island is so amazing! I'm going back this summer and will stay more in Heraklion :) So Agios Nikolaos will not be far to visit :D
I did not visit it (yet), Actually I went to Agios Nikoloas one time, but did not have my drone with me. When i'll come back to crete, it will definitly be on my list :)
Wow, awesome video. I had no idea Crete was so beautiful. I was looking for a good video about the island after reading a history of the WW2 Battle of Crete and the German occupation. The drone makes it much easier to visualize the locations of where the fighting took place.
Great footage! I am making a short history film about the Minoans and I wanted to ask if I can use a few clips from this video. If so, I will gladly credit you in the description and send you a link to the video once it‘s done. All the best to you! -Lance
Beautiful shots Bert! I was there in February and made a quick video of a restaurant on the beach. When I got home I wish I shot more. So in Juni I'm going back for another try. Give us more video's haha!
@@BertChristiaens Hey Bert, it's the first thing I will pack lol. I had my Mavic with me in February, but since then I've upgraded to the the pro 2. I'm so curious how the footage will come out. I wish I could stay there for 2 months like you thought haha. When are you going back?
@@Dutchvandude Nice, I also want to upgrade to the pro 2, much more possibilities for color grading etc. and I hope as soon as the corona thing is over :D
@@BertChristiaens Sweet! I have chosen it because of the 1 inch sensor, more safety features and flight time. Let's all hope the virus will die done and we can all go back to making videos again.
Kreta is prachtig om te filmen en zeker met de drone, Prachtig werk Bert. Ik heb vorig jaar er nog een paar gemaakt o.a. van Agia Galini, zie link hier onder. Vlieg je met Mavic Pro? Nog veel succes gewenst. Vriendelijke groeten, Mil ruclips.net/video/eMDejZwgPy4/видео.html
@@milsmovie Hey Emile, en Ja zeker! Zou er graag volgende keer een volledige winter naar toe gaan! & prachtige video, Agia galini is zeker de moeite waard om te bezoeken. Alles is gefilmd met de mavic air, maar ben wel van plan om binnenkort up te graden naar een mavic 2/3 pro.
Bert, you are an awesome drone pilot! Crispy and buttery and absolutely beautiful footages. Seriously, I have watched tons of Crete videos on RUclips and yours is the best one I've seen. I wish you could do more videos about Greek islands. 😊 Did you use cinematic mode on your drone for this? There's only 1 thing I want to suggest you making a change, which is the word font. As your audience I find it quite difficult to read. Anyway, thank you for giving me such an amazing cinematic experience.
Hey, Thanks for this nice comment, this means really much to me. I used manual mode on my drone and filmed in D-log. And thanks for this tip, I will look into it in my next video :) it's a work in progress, sometimes it's difficult to feel how fast people read/how big the text needs to be. Have a nice day!

I lived on Crete for 17 months in 1965-66. Enjoyed your video and glad to see there is still a lot of open space on the Island.

An excellent video! I was last here in 2004 and saw the Olympic flame and will buy here and take my beautiful wife. It is a very special place.
Thanks, Amazing to hear! was this in Heraklion?
It was just outside of Chania...Old men and women crying as they threw olive branches in the runners path. I will never forget it.
I looked at your information and I found it hard to believe. Although I live in England, I was in Nauders in 1974!
