I love that you show the process of getting to airports etc. Seeing the places, subway, train and your explanations gives us a preview and therefore, confidence, to do a trip like yours. Many thanks . We ALWAYS enjoy your travels
Yeah it's definitely not easy. The crappy sleep I got on the floor in Dublin helped, better than nothing. Otherwise I would have been completely useless for the rest of the day.
Good to see to see the reality of budget travelling and being totally wasted after no sleep and hanging out in airports. You've earned that Mediterranean sunshine Gabe. Looking forward to this adventure! 🌞
Oh RyanAir...Sends shivers down my spine. I have flown with them a lot unfortunately. Taxi 57 Euros! Man they see you coming. Looking forward to your next video though Gabriel.
22:33 That's not true......if you're a traveler this is what you want to see. It's what I've had to do plenty of time. I liked watching you connect to the different cities and catching different planes
Thank you for sharing the 17 hours of travelling. The busy atmosphere at airports, night flights, change of time and no sleep, all that is a part of the travel. Very bright and cheerful pictures of Dubrovnik. I cannot guess the country you are going to. That is exciting! Maybe - Montenegro, Cyprus, Malta or Bosna y Herzegovina?!. I am looking forward to watching your next video and unpuzzling your next travel destination.
A blessed Good Day Sir Gabe Wowww 😍 Beautiful Goodvibes City of Toronto Canada, thank you so much for your another Tour Flight ✈️ Going to another Next adventure Country Stay safe Travels Take care Godbless u 🙏❤️😍😊,🙂from your solid Fan supporter viewer from the Philippines ♥️🙏🇵🇭👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I enjoy your videos Gabe! I stumbled one of your walking tour videos of Granada Spain before my own trip there in September 2016. I then rediscovered you sometime in 2018 and I’ve been watching your videos since.
If you’re flying out of Toronto, and it’s 7 hours overnight…that puts you in Ireland or Portugal. Usually, long flights from there fly to the East otherwise you’d go more west in Canada to go that way. Plus another 3 hour flight, might put you in Belgium or Germany.
Actually enjoyed this video, it shows the sometimes hard and long journies which can be so tiring. Glad to see you back on the road and looking forward to upcoming videos. Safe journey.
Great video, am back on your channel! The rates for meals, drinks and hotels are hefty meanwhile. Btw. Dingle is also a nice town at the ring of Kerry in western Ireland, I once saw there Fungie, the dingle dolphin, who passed away 2020😪
Croatia is now, save for Monaco, the most expensive country at the entire Mediterranean. It is more expensive than Spain, Italy, Malta, Greece and yes, even southern France. I was in Nice last year, and, believe it or not, it is now cheaper than the coast of Dalmatia. Which is kind of crazy considering that the people of Croatia including those in Dalmatia has relatively low incomes.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos And up here in Northern Europe and the Baltic, bars and restaurants in Tallinn and Riga now has the audacity to charge more for a beer and a meal than in Stockholm, despite the average wages in those cities being probably half or even less of what people in Stockholm and Sweden earns.
That was a huge lot of travel, I could feel your tiredness. Love it when you show the journey to destinations. Some great travel tips as well. Nothing worse than getting to a gate, thinking you have plenty of time and you have to go through more security checks. Dubrovnik looks amazing. I guess it would be safe to say you are going to another country within the Balkans. So looking forward to see which country you are travelling to. Can’t wait for the next next video! ❤❤❤
Hi Gabriel, the airport is sometimes more of an adventure than the actual trip. This is what we all relish the long-awaited destination I'm only guessing your either going to Montenegro or Albania somewhere along those lines of course it will be good.
If I link informations from Gabriel in last videos - small country, outside the Schengen Area, only briefly visited by him previously and a bus drive from Dubrovnik - it is almost certainly Montenegro, amazing but often overlooked country, the most diverse Ex-Yugoslav country along with Slovenia. First stop is either Kotor or Herceg Novi, I believe. He has been to Kotor, Budva and Ulcinj last and until this day his only time but it is much more to see, I am looking forward to next videos. And one interesting fact - the Bay of Kotor looks like a fjord but strictly geographically it is ria as this was earlier a river valley of Bokelj River and was later flooded by sea. For a fjord, it must be a U-shaped valley (also called glacial trough), formed by the process of glaciation, that was flooded by sea, as is common in Norway.
Hi Gabriel, thanks for a video of Toronto. I went there once back in 2002. Compared to American big cities, T.O. was clean and safe. I can see it's still clean at least!
that's the second time in Ireland and yet we missed you again Gabriel. Next time let us know so we can bring you out for a beer in Dublin mate 👍 enjoy your stay 😊
Dublin airport is ridiculously overcrowded isn’t it, there is a lounge in T1 you can go for an extra bit of money, where you’ll have somewhere to sit and eat
I guess your next country will be Albania, as last time you did not thoroughly explore it and missed quite the majority of worth-visit attractions. Looking forward to the upcoming trips.
True, but that was my second time to Albania. I saw a lot more on my first trip there: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xq7H3HLzx5k.html
387 USD isn't cheap. Sometimes you could fly to Dublin from Toronto for as low as 200 USD. You could probably save another 20 to 30 bucks if you purchase food from outside of the airport and avoid the airport express train (will take you an extra half an hour on the road). And 175 USD from Dublin to Dubrovnik is freaking expensive. It should be less than 100 USD. It can be less than 50 USD if you book in advance. Your final destination could be either Bosnia or Montenegro, which are kind of similar to Croatia, but Bosnia is much cheaper for sure, it's probably the cheapest ex-Yugoslavia country. I recommend going further east to Albania after checking out ex-Yugoslavia countries, the people there are much friendlier than the ex-Yugoslavians (especially Montenegrins), and it is one of the cheapest costal European countries. Good food too. Definitely worth a visit.
I've been to Albania twice: www.youtube.com/@GabrielTravelerVideos/search?query=Albania The airport express train was pretty cheap, worth it for the quicker and more comfy ride. Eating in the airport is part of the experience for me, get some good hot food and kill some time. Bringing something from outside wouldn't be nearly as tasty and wouldn't be hot. Very true about the flights, you can certainly find cheaper but as you said, it often requires booking in advance, which doesn't fit my travel style. I checked tons of flight options for getting to my final destination and this was the cheapest and best way to go. It's peak season right now so everything is more expensive.
I suggest you visit Stari Bar in Montenegro, the old town is interesting as are its surroundings and olive groves, By the way, I live in Stari Bar....Ulcinj and its old town as well as the 10 km and more pebbled beach, ....Kotor old town and Peratst...... Lovcen mountain and town Cetinje with the top of which is the mausoleum of the Montenegrin poet and ruler....Lake Skadar, the largest in the Balkans...in the north, Tara canyon, river rafting...Durmitor National Park and Biogradska Gora National Park. These are locations where there is no mistake...there are plenty of beaches along the coast.
Dubrovačke gradske zidine,😊The walls of Dubrovnik,a series of defensive stone walls surrounding the city ,such an impressive place!We visited the city several times and always had a wonderful holiday.Happy travels,sretan put,Gabriel!👍
Take a look at Norse airlines Gabe. Just ordered a flight ticket from Oslo to Bangkok for about 190€! Flights from New York-Oslo-Bangkok is like 300$ if you keep watching cos there prices jump around nearly daily! Yeah sorry I couldn’t meet you at Koh Phayam, I was there but am only at FB and not on instagram so I didn’t see you! But you paid way too much man! Am going back to KP and staying at KP Hostel for 100baht a day man! Hope your coming back just for a nice holiday without filming too much, let’s keep KP as a secret man🍺😎
Safe trip ,onto B&H or Montenegro, both or either options great..should ,Dubrovnik is lovely after its rebuilding, but expensive more so since entering the Euro
When you're in Montenegro I recommend visiting Zabljak (Durmitor National Park). It's much cooler there, less crowded and you can hike in the Alps with almost no people on the higher trails. I was there last July during my 5 week trip to Montenegro avoiding the Schengen like you are. And yes, way cheaper than Croatia. Plenty of vids of Montenegro on my channel if you're looking for info. Enjoy.
I literally just left Dubrovnik just yesterday and flew back to NJ after two weeks in Zadar visiting my family. I was going to tell you to go in September. It is so crowded. However, enjoy. It is hot and sunny!
Have you done a video on your whole process? I mean how do you go about planning your next trip. What are the steps you take, websites you use to book tickets , apps you use?
Looks like Malta. 🇲🇹 Have you ever considered a priority pass membership? We have one with our credit card and it pays for itself not having to buy food and alcohol at airports
At the start of the video it looked like Malta at first, but when I saw the hill above the town, I knew it wasn't Malta. At the end of the video, I recognized it is Dubovnik.
You can probably blame Game of Thrones for Dubrovnik being so expensive these days! It seems to attract a lot of your fellow countrymen now, whereas before GoT they'd probably never even heard of the place! Fortunately I was there just before the season started last year, and the place was a lot quieter and cheaper. I rented a beautiful Airbnb right in the middle of the old town for about £40 per night!
I was on 28 Bus passing by Golden Gate Bridge and saw tourists trying to tap the Clipper reader with their tap and bay, but Bay Area transit is not that advanced. Headed to Pier 27 for cruise to Ketchikan Inside Passage on Princess. It’s a bit Møre comfortable than my usual trips on Turkish to the Balkans. Learned all about Schengen during Covid as their testing rules led me to stay away.
Wikipedia: Lokrum (pronounced [lɔ̌krum], Italian: Lacroma) is an island in the Adriatic Sea 600 metres (1,969 feet) from the city of Dubrovnik, Croatia. It stretches from northwest to southeast and receives regular ferry service from the Old City port. Austrian archduke (and short-lived Emperor of Mexico) Maximilian once had a holiday home on the island. A monastery and a botanical garden survive from his era. On the island's highest point at 96 metres (315 feet) above sea level stands Fort Royal Castle, which was built by the French during Napoleon's occupation of Croatia, though it was later named "Maximilian's Tower" by the Austrians.
@@nielfitzwell234 Yeah, it's been a while since one crashed, seems like they fixed the problem. Any way you look at it flying is ridiculously safe. Driving in a car is much more dangerous, thousands of accidents every day. Only a few plane crashes per year.
