I used to visit Bar Harbor back in the 70s. There were older folks who would rent out rooms in their houses for $5 a night and you got breakfast as well. I lived in Portland so going to Bar Harbor was a nice getaway during the summers. The good ole days.
I am 45 years old now, born and raised in Portland, Maine. I cannot imagine living anywhere else, this place I call home is such a unique place to live :)
@@Mitchialia , ayuhn. I preferred Portland when it was 2/3 empty and rents were bearable. Now it's mostly Massholes, New Yorkers& Californicados with grand schemes and no respect for the native population. When Strimling& Mills invited all those Somalis to come up from the Texas border and lavished them with gifts and the finest food, clothes, free iPhones, best housing in Portland, we who love Maine cried foul.
I'm from Montana and so I measure everything by Montana standards. I must say that Maine is truly a beautiful state. I am also in love with Vermont. Thank you for this beautiful tour.
@@annaserale9850 Eastern Montana and Western Montana are 2 very different places. I live in western Montana in Helena. Bozeman is the gateway to Yellowstone. Kalispell is the gateway to Glacier. If you travel from Billings to Butte to Missoula (perhaps a side trip to Helena) you have seen a good portion. I live on Hauser Lake which is part of the Missouri River. We have 3 lakes near Helena - Canyon Ferry, Hauser, and Holter. The Gates of the Mountains (named by Lewis and Clark) are on Holter. You can take a boat ride through them.
@@rebekkad.2092 I visited Bozeman and Big Sky a year ago. I would say that it is very beautiful and definitely worth a visit. It reminds me of the Poconos, but with wealthy people instead of opiod and heroin epidemic. The Poconos and PA inofitself, is a treasure which should be explored in great depth. I believe tje same with Maine (I really want to go) and WV (I've only been to Morgantown)
Well, you know I’m sure Montana was missing you when you were gone so make sure you just hunker down there in Montana. Whereabouts in Montana do you reside? I spent quite a bit of time in Montana.
Since a visit to Ogunquit several years ago it has been my dream to move to Maine when my husband retires. The spirit of Maine got in my soul and this video confirms the wisdom of this desire.
I was born and raised in Maine and have visited almost every summer for over 40 years. We moved from Fairfield to South Portland in 1944 so my mom could work in the shipyard building liberty ships. Moved to Portland in 1949 and lived there until I entered the military in 1954. My first winter away from home was in Biloxi MS and it made me determined to never spend another freezing winter in Maine or anywhere. When I was a boy I remember how old and dirty the Portland waterfront was. The best parts of the city were the Eastern and Western promanards where the upper classes lived. I am pleased to see how the urban renewal has made the Old Port a nice place to visit and has attracted tourists. The cruise ships seem to be a real boon to the tourist industry. I love to visit Maine and my many family members but at the end of September I point my van south and head home to Texas. Bye the bye, this was a very good video of Maine and the coastal towns and should draw many tourists.
I grew up in Alliance Ohio and now I live in Rockland Maine. I feel enormously grateful for both facts! I can’t believe how fortunate I am to have ended up in Maine!
Great video showcasing the beautiful coastal towns of maine. I live in Sweden and Maine reminds me a little of our beautiful west coast here with the lobsters and rocky shores. Really want to visit New england someday!
Yes, Maine is very similar to Sweeden. Some people from Sweden who imigrated here generations ago, remained in Maine because of the close similarities .
Always love me some Maine time!! Except for 9 months in 2005....when I worked in South Portland...haha. Seriously, even driving over the Piscataqua Bridge daily was a treat for me from my place in Massachusetts! Maine has returned to "Vacationland" for me and I love it every time I can go!! Can't wait to return next summer!! Surprised you didn't mention Two Lights Lobster Shack there in Cape Elizabeth. Reasonably priced lobstah with the wicked cool view!
Maine looks so beautiful and safe. A Lobster sandwich and a coffee on the sea front whilst admiring the view and watching the world go by would be amazing!
Intro of the video thought the guy on the rocks was a prisoner escaping..... edit that out. The rest of the video wonderful. I live in Portland. Also Feb. 2021 and Covid the tourist industry such a terrible hit.
Maine is one of my favorite US states. Gorgeous views of the land and the ocean and of the beautiful lighthouses that I used to go visit every chance I could. Great food and welcoming people. Romantic views perct romantic get away. Angela Italy
Your videos are amazing! I live in the Tampa area too and I've had the pleasure of visiting Maine twice! I could visit there every year. Maine is absolutely breathtaking!
Binge watching your videos now. Discovered your channel while watching your Poconos travel guide video. These are some awesome travel videos. Thank you.
Just came back from a week in Maine (Bar Harbor and Portland) and I can't stop watching this video- it is truly breathtaking up there. And because of this video, there are so many more towns I want to visit!
Nicely done. I enjoyed this video! I am certain God spent extra time here! I cannot wait to explore this stunningly beautiful state!!! Hello bucket list!! 😍
I was born in Waterville Maine and learned how to do many of things through a excellent organization called Outward Bound While at Acadia National Park and it was some of the best times of my life! Any tourist that travels to Maine I encourage you to come a little further and visit Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park on Mount Desert Island and I promise you will have a great time!
This was such a beautiful video of Maine. I just got back from a trip to Bar Harbor and Acadia and I have fallen in love with Maine! The beauty of nature is everywhere.
I moved. I went south, to work with horses, be near my daughter. I adore horses. Worst mistake of my life. Wasted 8 years stuck in Florida, until I could go home. My eyes and heart are on the end of April, when I can, finally, come home to the best place in the world.
I loved your video💕 & I love Maine! I hope to get back there one more time, this fall. I’ve enjoyed the many years I got to visit there. Many fabulous memories! I always stayed at The Olde Fort Inn in Kennebunkport & I loved every minute of those visits. The owners have since retired so it’s not the same. Hopefully, this fall I can come back for the last time to Maine, a place I love dearly👍🏼💕
I can’t wait to go see Maine in person!! I hear it’s so much more beautiful than I can imagine!! Fingers crossed in the next couple years we will sail there!
We are full time traveling in our RV and we can not wait to finally get to Maine next week! We have been on the road for a year now and I feel like we have saved the best for last! Thanks so much for this wonderful video! We’ve taken notes and will be visiting most of what you’ve talked about! 🦞
My wife and I have always wanted to visit Maine. This is our 20th anniversary this year. So in September I booked us a week in Newport on Sebasticook Lake . I can wait
@@rogerberry4088 Wow, so glad you made it up that far! Did you get to the top of Cadillac Mt? My fiance and I tried to get to Bar Harbor but so many places were full. We ended up staying in Kennebunkport.
Maine is so beautiful! I just spent 2 weeks there last month. Bar Harbor was by far my favorite. If anyone has the chance, hike Acadia national park at the top of Cadillac mountain. It is 100% worth the trip!
You can't even drive up Cadillac Mtn without a special use permit these days as it was becoming so overcrowded that the Park Officials had to limit access. As for riding a bicycle up the Cadillac Road...make sure your life insurance is paid up! Park brochures advise against riding a bicycle and it's just a matter to time until bicycles are banned from Cadillac due to the danger of car/bicycle collisions.
@@mrgenetics4063 - Be kind. Voice dictation is a b!7(h sometimes. It is beautiful to hike in various parts of Acadia national park. I recommend Cadillac mountain at dawn, to watch the sunrise. Bar Harbor, very crowded also, so I go early when possible, also. Park passes cost a lot, but you can do Sand Beach and a nice little walk there without a pass; also Sieur de Monts springs and it’s botanical gardens. Near SW harbor, Beech mt is a lovely hike. And if you like BBQ Mainely meats is awesome for a rack of ribs. Craft beer, too, if you do the location on Knox Road.
Problem is there are way too many people coming here now, you can't even go up Cadillac anymore without getting a pass and waiting because there are so many people. It's ruining it.
My husband and I traveled along the NE coast back in the early fall of 2019, before Covid. Of all the places we visited Kennebunkport was one of my favorites. It was like a page from a storybook. We also loved Portland Maine, Boston (of course) and Manchester by the Sea (Massachusetts). It was so fun! We haven’t been on vacation since. Hoping things will be better in 2022.
Simply beautiful! We live in NY state and took a New England/Canada cruise many years ago. When we arrived in Portland, we instantly fell in love! Now we vacation there each year discovering new locations/lakes all over the state. Sadly, we had to cancel this year's plans due to the virus. So, this video was a welcome sight for us to enjoy! Plus, we always go in the fall so it was so nice to see the fall colors. Thank you for a great trip to Maine :) Take care and stay well.
Excellent quality video. It’s been awhile since someone has made a truly good RUclips video of Maine like this one. Thanks for spending your hard earned money in our state. Come back soon.
So incredible! I'm moving there next month and cannot wait. I've never been to Maine (though videos like this make me feel like I have). It's one of the few places I'd move to without having visited.
I also moved to Maine fairly recently (Nov. 2020) It really is a beautiful state. My biggest complaint is that they have no idea how to make a decent pizza, up here, but the seafood is fantastic.
@@lunachick7549 I hear you, Luna Chick, we’ve had some really bad pizza here. Have you tried Coletti’s in Biddeford? My husband’s from NY and has high pizza standards - that’s the only place he’s liked so far.
So beautifully filmed, incredible Maine, makes me feel I should move to Maine someday and enjoy the beauty of Maine. I am a big fan of lighthouses, love this lighthouse, it is gorgeous.
You make the best travel videos on RUclips! So informative, always great footage, a little humor. My wife and I are always so grateful when you’ve done a video for a travel destination we are interested in. Keep up the incredible work!
Another amazing video! Thanks for masterfully combining aerial and street views of charming New England towns. After watching Vermont and Maine videos, I seriously consider moving up north. It is what I looked for in US for so many years, and it seems it was there in New England. Simply jaw-droppingly beautiful!
@@hunter6719 no joke, I grew up in Ma. But got tired of the overcast days and cold wrather most of the year. Don't plan to go in the water swimming. I'm in Fl. Now. It gets dark there real early in the winter, BUT it's a great place to visit in August and Early October.
Maine is such a breathtaking place. I wanted to visit this winter but may hold off to spring so I can take a ferry ride. Awesome beginning of the video. Very creative
The ferries run year round. There are 6 islands off the coast of Portland with year round residents who rely on the ferries to get to the mainland for work, shopping, doctor appointments, etc. In fact, many of the kids who live on the islands commute weekdays into Portland for school.
Your videos bring back memories of when I used to travel all over the US by car in the 80s. I didn't get to see as much of Maine as you just showed. It would have been nice to have had more time back then.
Went on the nature boat ride in Bar Harbor the female guide Loved her work and gave us great insight in the various birds in the area. It was a pleasure.
What a beautiful video and wonderfully narrated posting on these areas in Maine! I spent a week there a few years back and it brought back so many memories! Now I want to go back again... Great the way you listed all the things to see, places to go and prices. Thanks!
Seriously. I’ve watched so many of your videos and your method is just the best. Too many people put so much of them talking into a camera and not enough footage and information. You have this down to a science and have elevated my standards for travel videos!
@TampaAerialMedia Wow, what an incredible set of videos you’ve created! Nobody provides the incredible & useful detailed descriptions like you do!! My better half & I have already planed 1 trip based upon the info you’ve provided. We’re now planning our trip along the coast of Maine. Thank you very much!! Keep going....please 👍😎
Thankyou for the nice words, that is always great to hear from people like yourself who uses our videos to plan for a trip. Thanks for letting us know.
GREAT video! Thank you! I visited Maine for the first time in October 2018; Bar Habor, Rumford, Cape Elizabeth, Camden, Rangeley, Portland, South Portland, and Acadia National Park. I enjoyed my time in Maine, and watching your video makes me want to visit again!
I’m from Baltimore unfortunately. I went to Gatlinburg last year and had a great time and beautiful place. You need to check out Maine it is by far the most beautiful place. We have gone up there several times and rented houses surrounded by Acadia national park. Last week in September or first in October is the best time cause stuff is still open and rental prices are cheaper.
@@tomp6685 , I've watched Maine go through several boom/bust cycles. This bust cycle is being propped up by out of staters moving in. Hundreds of native owned businesses closed permanently this year. In a way, Maine is like Hawaii. Many natives are dependent on tourist dollars, but that doesn't mean they like you.
I really appreciate these videos. I have lived or at least visited many of your destinations and you do a great job of showing these areas. I have also learned many things as well. Beautiful work! Regards from a fellow Floridian!
Mainer here-lovely video capturing the coastal beauty. Just wanted to say for anyone planning a visit to Maine, the Belfast Broiler Fest went by the wayside over 40 years ago, sadly. The Celtic Festival in Belfast has subsequently replaced the Bay Festival which replaced the Broiler Fest in the early 80s.
So fabulous! I’ve been watching your videos since the Covids when we were all stuck on our couch! I’m from Connecticut-a New Englander through and through but I enjoy traveling. Your videos get me curious for more travel!
What an amazing video. You captured our coast line beautifully. I own a traveling wedding company in Maine and you even hit a few places that I've never been. It was so wonderful to be able to see the places we have been from an aerial view, just astounding. I am going to share your video on our media as 90 percent of our brides are from out of state and they have coastal weddings. This will be very informative and inspirational for them. There were 2 place that you would have found amazing that you might have missed peaks island casco bay lines from Portland takes you over and Mt Battie tower at the park in Boothbay.

You can't even get that for $65 now.
Owned a Summer Seasonal on the water for 10 years at Cape Neddick, Maine. Happiest times of my life living up there for the Summer.
I am 45 years old now, born and raised in Portland, Maine. I cannot imagine living anywhere else, this place I call home is such a unique place to live :)
Also, fun fact about the lighthouse shown here in Cape Elizabeth, Portland Head light is the most photographed lighthouse in the world
Yep I believe that. We have filmed many lighthouses, but the Portland Head Light has to be the best.
I used to love living in portland until I was priced out of the whole state because there's no jobs, no houses and corrupt apartment owners.
@@Mitchialia , ayuhn. I preferred Portland when it was 2/3 empty and rents were bearable.

@@TampaAerialMedia The only comparable one is Heceta Head on the Oregon Coast, but I still like this one better!
these north eastern atlantic gems of American states, beautiful, unique and mesmerizing.
We are planning our trip in Aug 2023...wishing we could do Christmas in Bath! Thank you for such detailed information!
Thankyou, you are welcome
I rode my motorcycle down the coast from Montreal. Amazing amazing amazing…every town every vista every river every tree was perfect.
I'm from Montana and so I measure everything by Montana standards. I must say that Maine is truly a beautiful state. I am also in love with Vermont. Thank you for this beautiful tour.

Thank you here too. What a beautiful state and a fantastic presentation. Hi to beautiful Bella. 🥰
Thankyou, yep Maine is one of my favorite states
Coastal Southern Maine seems like some of the best places in the world to vacation and even live in. I love it so much.
I live in Maine and have been to all of these locations, Excellent video. Maine is a beautiful state!!
Great video showcasing the beautiful coastal towns of maine. I live in Sweden and Maine reminds me a little of our beautiful west coast here with the lobsters and rocky shores. Really want to visit New england someday!

If you love trains the Essex steam train is great in Essex ct. You can also go on the riverboat. Brought my scouts there many times.

I just discovered your channel and this video is the best I've seen on Maine.
Thankyou Peter, welcome, and thanks for letting us know...Yes, I'm considering another trip to Maine, so much to cover in that beautiful state.
Best Maine vacation video I’ve seen so far! Very comprehensive and informative. Thank you!
thankyou, I appreciate you taking time to say that
Excellent video! Certainly makes me want to get back to Maine this fall. Keep the great vids coming
Thankyou J Zang, we certainly will
Man this video makes me miss home so much. I joined the navy earlier this year, and seeing this video makes me even more exited to take leave!!
I miss New England so much
Loved 💙 A Beautiful state. Thank you. Best wishes

I moved. I went south, to work with horses, be near my daughter.
I adore horses.
Worst mistake of my life. Wasted 8 years stuck in Florida, until I could go home. My eyes and heart are on the end of April, when I can, finally, come home to the best place in the world.
ive been to York harbor Maine was hiking up on a steep hillside with the ocean backdrop loved it.
Such a gorgeous place. All of your videos are so expertly edited with gorgeous scenes.

So incredible! I'm moving there next month and cannot wait. I've never been to Maine (though videos like this make me feel like I have). It's one of the few places I'd move to without having visited.
I think you will like it, although it will be cold in December but still beautiful.

I retired here three years ago from Long Island, NY, Maine is amazing and really nice people for the most part.
Make sure you like winter ..lol
You make the best travel videos on RUclips! So informative, always great footage, a little humor. My wife and I are always so grateful when you’ve done a video for a travel destination we are interested in. Keep up the incredible work!
Thankyou BlackjeysFan, I appreciate that feedback, glad to be of help
Another amazing video! Thanks for masterfully combining aerial and street views of charming New England towns. After watching Vermont and Maine videos, I seriously consider moving up north. It is what I looked for in US for so many years, and it seems it was there in New England. Simply jaw-droppingly beautiful!
Yes it is jaw-droppingly beautiful, just be prepared the winters can be very cold
@@TampaAerialMedia I know, but at least it has all four seasons, unlike Texas
New England is so beautiful 😍 make sure you bring your long johns
@@hunter6719 no joke, I grew up in Ma. But got tired of the overcast days and cold wrather most of the year. Don't plan to go in the water swimming. I'm in Fl. Now. It gets dark there real early in the winter, BUT it's a great place to visit in August and Early October.
@Philip Livi yes I know I'm from Worcester. Been in Austin 14 years now, it Sucks!!
Maine is such a breathtaking place. I wanted to visit this winter but may hold off to spring so I can take a ferry ride. Awesome beginning of the video. Very creative
The ferries run year round. There are 6 islands off the coast of Portland with year round residents who rely on the ferries to get to the mainland for work, shopping, doctor appointments, etc. In fact, many of the kids who live on the islands commute weekdays into Portland for school.
@@faithboudreau5904 wow. Thank you for this information
very very beautiful video, the landscape is magnificent with very beautiful colors (maple). thank you so much
We are from New England and have traveled the coast of Maine several times. Thank you for presenting it in such an Interesting way.
Thankyou Gerry for the nice words.
Beautiful! I love Maine! Also I really enjoyed you mentioning pet friendly places!!! 🐶 ❤️ great videos!!!!!
Thankyou Nathalie, yep alway try to mention that.
So much work behind these videos. Thank you for sharing your wonderful travel guides with us!
yes there is, thankyou for that.
Your videos bring back memories of when I used to travel all over the US by car in the 80s. I didn't get to see as much of Maine as you just showed.
It would have been nice to have had more time back then.
Went on the nature boat ride in Bar Harbor the female guide Loved her work and gave us great insight in the various birds in the area. It was a pleasure.
What a beautiful video and wonderfully narrated posting on these areas in Maine! I spent a week there a few years back and it brought back so many memories! Now I want to go back again... Great the way you listed all the things to see, places to go and prices. Thanks!
Thankyou for the feedback, I appreciate that.
Another excellent video. Excellent editing, excellent narration, comprehensive research. must have taken weeks to film all the footage.
Thankyou for that. It took about week to film and another week to edit.
Seriously. I’ve watched so many of your videos and your method is just the best. Too many people put so much of them talking into a camera and not enough footage and information. You have this down to a science and have elevated my standards for travel videos!
I'm from WA. State, been there 3 times, would live there if it was NOT so cold in the winter. Great places, friendly people, always helpful
I love your soundtracks... they compliment the footage beautify.
Thankyou I appreciate that feedback. Yea finding the music is often the most time consuming part of editing
Love your videos, I just discovered them. They are awesome.
Thankyou for the nice words Jocelynne, I appreciate that.
Thank You, you do such an awesome job and the drone shots are awesome
Thankyou Mark for the feedback
I love the video and want to visit some of these places. Kudos for scaling the dangerous and sheer cliffs at the beginning of the video. Well done!
Thankou Marlon for the nice words.
Your videos are awesome! Im glad I found your page, and look forwards to more future videos, as I look to travel again next year!
Thankyou for the nice words, yea we should be doing Naples & Ft Lauderdale in the coming months.
Thanks for the link....I adore the Ocean so anywhere that has water is wonderful..again super quality filming and narration...
Once again, another fantastic video. You do a very personal and professional job, thanks!
Thankyou for the kind words.
Thank you. Happy to know of the pet friendly places as well.We have a 16 1/2 year old dog and can’t bear to leave him at home
Yep the older they get the less I like to leave them alone.
Fantastic video! So well-researched and beautifully shot. Helped me plan my trip to Maine. Thank you for all the links and addresses!
Beautiful . Great work! Thank you and Blessings your way.
Thankyou fo rthe nice words
Randy, you are a real professional. excellent video with excellent editing, the information you give us is very important. you invest a lot, bravo.
Thankyou Abdel, you're so kind
@TampaAerialMedia Wow, what an incredible set of videos you’ve created! Nobody provides the incredible & useful detailed descriptions like you do!! My better half & I have already planed 1 trip based upon the info you’ve provided. We’re now planning our trip along the coast of Maine. Thank you very much!! Keep going....please 👍😎
Thankyou for the nice words, that is always great to hear from people like yourself who uses our videos to plan for a trip. Thanks for letting us know.
😎 cool video!!! So nice to see and hear about Maine!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
GREAT video! Thank you! I visited Maine for the first time in October 2018; Bar Habor, Rumford, Cape Elizabeth, Camden, Rangeley, Portland, South Portland, and Acadia National Park. I enjoyed my time in Maine, and watching your video makes me want to visit again!
Thankyou, yea I think its worth a return trip.
I'm from Eastern Tennessee looking to visit Maine next year this has helped tremendously!
Glad to help, I think you'll love Maine
I’m from Baltimore unfortunately. I went to Gatlinburg last year and had a great time and beautiful place. You need to check out Maine it is by far the most beautiful place. We have gone up there several times and rented houses surrounded by Acadia national park. Last week in September or first in October is the best time cause stuff is still open and rental prices are cheaper.
Thomas, by next year, much of what you see in this video will be closed thanks to Gov. Mills mismanagement
@@rmadiller I hope not! I've been wanting to go up there for about 3 years now
@@tomp6685 , I've watched Maine go through several boom/bust cycles. This bust cycle is being propped up by out of staters moving in. Hundreds of native owned businesses closed permanently this year. In a way, Maine is like Hawaii. Many natives are dependent on tourist dollars, but that doesn't mean they like you.
Watched this video and used it to plan our itinerary this October. Excellent commentary. Thank you
Great to hear, happy to be of help, yea give youself plenty of time, so much to see
Great video! I’ll visit Maine, someday... I also loved the intro rock climbing scene.
Thankyou for the feedback, you'll love Maine
I really appreciate these videos. I have lived or at least visited many of your destinations and you do a great job of showing these areas. I have also learned many things as well. Beautiful work! Regards from a fellow Floridian!
Mainer here-lovely video capturing the coastal beauty. Just wanted to say for anyone planning a visit to Maine, the Belfast Broiler Fest went by the wayside over 40 years ago, sadly. The Celtic Festival in Belfast has subsequently replaced the Bay Festival which replaced the Broiler Fest in the early 80s.
So fabulous! I’ve been watching your videos since the Covids when we were all stuck on our couch! I’m from Connecticut-a New Englander through and through but I enjoy traveling. Your videos get me curious for more travel!
Thankyou Miriam, so good to hear, I appreciate that
What an amazing video. You captured our coast line beautifully. I own a traveling wedding company in Maine and you even hit a few places that I've never been. It was so wonderful to be able to see the places we have been from an aerial view, just astounding. I am going to share your video on our media as 90 percent of our brides are from out of state and they have coastal weddings. This will be very informative and inspirational for them. There were 2 place that you would have found amazing that you might have missed peaks island casco bay lines from Portland takes you over and Mt Battie tower at the park in Boothbay.
Thankyou for the nice words. Yea I wished I would have taken the Casco Bay Lines over some of the other islands.
Mount Battie’s in Camden
Thank you sommuch for this information. Well put together and a good variety all in one package.
Thankyou Cindy
