  • Highlights from our vacation to Bora Bora and Moorea in French Polynesia in July 2019. Four Seasons Bora Bora and Sofitel Moorea. GoPro 7 in 4K. Edit: I didn't expect 30,000+ views on this since it was just a random video uploaded for family. But - so you don't have to slog through 50 minutes of home video - here are some shortcuts to some of the good parts:
    1:33 - Flight into Bora Bora from Tahiti
    5:58 - Tour of the bungalow at Four Seasons
    9:11 - Parasailing
    14:24 - Kayaking in the lagoon
    15:39 - $45 Hamburger
    16:35 - Private tour of the island with Tanoa (here's his website: www.tanoaprivat...)
    19:57 - Swimming with Sharks
    31:28 - Jet Skiing
    34:28 - Random lunch at the Four Seasons
    35:40 - Stand up Paddleboarding
    38:09 - Fire Show at Four Seasons
    39:27 - Breakfast Buffet at Four Seasons
    41:22 - Flight from Bora Bora to Moorea
    43:24 - Room tour at Sofitel Moorea

    Alright guys, I read some of the reviews here and, yeah, they're all positive for a reason. What you guys have accomplished is that ground level, raw, like-it-is travel video. None of the "I'm so, sooo excited...." every 10 seconds, no drone, except making yourself one, and then encapsulating the 4S experience at this particular property by commenting that they, really ..."didn't take care of you', I think it might be the tip of the iceberg." F&%^..g loved that! Something that Vloggers have to overlook for unique eyeballs. You may have only 589 subs, the big 590 with me, but your views have caught the 4S prop's attention. I'm positive they've reached out. Listen Mike, you have editing skills....! Keep the dry content, it works, and you two are the perfect couple for it. Screw the Kardashians! Throw in some humor (dry humor) and the subs will pop. We know you're financially comfortable, especially at "...you ready to go? This place sucks." And I loved, "here's what a 40GBP looks like." It was one of the chuckles of the video, and we knew that it wasn't the price, but the service overall. Mike, get your subs! Get liquid, stop flying commercial, and keep making these dry videos. It's what the world needs now! Especially from a G6!!

    I love this video because I've been a lifelong fan of Pacific island paradises. I haven't been to Bora Bora but I've spent several times in Hawaii, a few times in Tahiti (Moorea) and several times to the neighboring Cook Islands. These remote Pacific islands always had a soothing, colorful, fascinating effect on this tourist white dude. I think of them as this planet's "garden spot." All of which have a quiet, island-time relaxing vibe to them.

    We did a cruise from Tahiti to Hawaii years ago for our 25th anniversary, but stayed in an overwater for 2 nights before. Only got to stay in Bora Bora for the day but it made a huge impression on us. We have always wanted to go back and do exactly this, so am wondering if there was anything you would have done differently........stayed longer.......different excursions, etc? Didn’t it look like they put blue colouring in the water, I have never seen that colour water since! You did a super job filming, thank you!
