I wanted to take a moment to thank you for making this video. We traveled from Las Vegas to the Azores specifically because of this video. Words can't describe how beautiful and amazing Flores Island is. We were blown away by it. The 20 min hike to the falls was tough but it was so worth it. We thought now we know why you was sweating during that hike..lol. By the way Mystic Tours is a great option we used. She did an amazing job of showing us Flores. She was so sweet and nice. Thank you again. It was a trip of a lifetime.

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you for your kind words. This is why I make these to inspire people like you. Means a lot! ❤️❤️

[@giovannalino9915]

So gorgeous ❤

[@viti_ontour]

Indeed, it is!

[@CoelhoChewy]

Very well done. Flores is my birthplace. Santa Cruz. It is awesome to hear you describe Flores from the perspective of an outsider. Will be back next summer, still have our family home there. The home I was born in. Thank you.🇵🇹🤍💙

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you! Im glad you've enjoyed the videos!

[@joaosaraiva9425]

I was in the beginning of october for the first time in Flores Island, to discover a paradise and I can say that it is the most beautiful island of all the Azores

[@viti_ontour]

I agree!

[@farzaanjaved8829]

hey, so my girlfriend is form Flores and we just stumbled upon this video and I am so excited that she is is excited to tell me things aboutt her island through your video. HOWEVER I got to realise that half of the things you told about this video is partially misinterpreted and wrong. I have never seen my girlfriend being so critical about things but this was one hell of a critical commentary which also made me realise new things about my gf. Thank you for the video anyway made my gf happier and nostalgic

[@viti_ontour]

Hi, thank you for watching. What exactly was misinterpreted? Im curious to know.

[@2kool4myskool]

Great video as always how lucky to see nature as it has been for millions of years it's like being in your own time machine.

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you!

Azores are the perfect place after covid: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooDUimiFaNR9brc

[@toadtoadersson2239]

Beautifully done and well narrated my friend. All the best and keep making these videos!

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you very much!

[@carlosb1878]

As an Azorean living now in Canada I left the Azores (São Miguel island) when I was about 6 y.o. I am now 54. I went back to the Azores about 5 years ago. I was a-m-a-z-e-d. Absolutely beautiful and so, so, so, clean and beautiful shades natural green everywhere and the scenery was amazing. If you want natural beauty and a quiet, calm, stressless vacation with natural hot springs you can bathe in and are into serenity and peace, then the Azores is your destination. I have been longing to go back.

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you very much for your note, Carlos! Azores r beautiful!

[@anbra796]

Beautiful thank you for sharing .I was born in Terceira Azores Love the Azores

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you, Ana. Im glad you've enjoyed the videos!

[@Austingrey789]

This is the best video on azores I have seen so far.

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you, Arish! I am glad you enjoyed it!

[@glennminnick6376]

Great videos, thank you. After living in NYC for 30 years, I'd probably be bored very quickly, but at least they have great wine. The scenery are breathtaking. The landscape, the waterfalls remind me of the island of Kauai, Hawaii. Cheers!

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you, Glen! Glad you've enjoyed the video!

[@josegouveia890]

Beautiful video 📹 and beautiful island 🏝 flores são miguel azores beautiful island 🏝 azores very nice good job man

[@mariaburlington4440]

Absolutely breathtaking views. Another excellent video on the Azores. Something very mystic about these islands, unmatched natural beauty.

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you!

[@toadtoadersson2239]

Agreed

[@musquodoboitharbour]

for a person that has not been doing this very long, you are doing a great job filming and editing.

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you sir! Definitely it's very new, but im trying to do my best and make the viewing experience for you guys as pleasant as possible. I'm glad you are enjoying my videos!

[@musquodoboitharbour]

@@viti_ontour Naturally I don't know your background but I think it would be a nice touch to say what brought you to doing this travel and sharing it all with us. I found you because I am retiring shortly and visiting the Azores is my first thing I will be doing. Also because of you I have to see as many of the islands I can. I agree with you, they seem so different, at least through your lens it does. I will know more in May of next year when I retire. Thanks for sharing. I will follow you in your travels to see where I should go on my trip after the AZORES.

[@viti_ontour]

@@musquodoboitharbour Thank you Mark! I will definitely make a video telling my story shortly!

[@stevenroberts2319]

Absolutely stunning beauty , great videos. Am visiting the Azores Archipelago for 17 days in July, visiting São Miguel , Faial , Pico , Terceira and Flores in that order . Your video have made me really excited to visit, and as you suggest , will hire a car on Flores . Keep producing amazing Videos 🙏

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you, Steven! Enjoy your travels!

Thank you Mariya!

[@mdrtexas]

Great video and commentary! The end with waterfalls and lagoon gave me a few chills it was so beautiful. Thanks

[@viti_ontour]

Thanks Mike! Glad you've enjoyed the video!

[@E17TV]

Excellent video Viti, with amazing views👏👏👏. It's always struck me as a very quiet and calm island and seeing the waterfalls, lakes and (smooth), deserted roads confirms it. Thanks for the guide around the islands you visited.

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you.

[@mcvu4270]

Wow! Great camera work and narration. Thank you for sharing! 😊 Question: which month did you visit the Azores? Thanks

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you for watching! Im glad to hear you have enjoyed it! I was there in September!

[@josemanuelramirez4098]

Incredible video Viti_ontour, thank you very much for this amazing job!, i will be there next November for 12 days, i hope to see and enjoy Azores. I will be in San Miguel and Flores is the weather is good in that date. Your video is a nice way to express the beauty of this place and I have been able to notice your emotion for the place. This is the best way to get to know the world, opening your heart to the places you visit. Congratulation!!!! Bravo!!!

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you, Jose! Im glad to hear that you have enjoyed the videos! Hope you have a great time!

[@acores78]

Thank you for the amazing content of the islands of Acores! My parents are from Sao Miguel and love the island and can't wait to go back. I do have to say that I was a bit shocked to see all of those trees cut down in Flores. I believe the Acores tries to maintain it's natural beauty, so this was a shocker! I hope you enjoyed your stay in the Acores, Madeira and hopefully you can sometime soon see beautiful mainland Portugal as well! Keep up the great videos!!

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you! Im glad you've enjoyed the videos.

[@nuoutdoor]

really nice work! congrat!

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you! Glad you've enjoyed it!

[@sasori1900]

Your videos from the azores were all great but this one is top notch. Besides that, im just sad you didnt get to visit Terceira, but if you do in the future, let me know, i will gladly show you around. This gesture comes from one particular thing... when i started reading the comment section a tear rolled down my face has i saw how many people were amazed by the azorean beauty that you provided them. So thank you, and let me repay you

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you very much! It means a lot! Terceira one day for sure!

[@viti_ontour]

I agree. It was my favorite, but every island is beautiful!

Great series. Helped us plan for our 20th anniversary Trip this year!!!!

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you, sir! Glad you've enjoyed the videos and found them helpful in your trip planning!

[@kuzeyboy]

i just watched all of your Azores series and I loved them all but Flores - that was utterly amazing - my version of paradise! I just wanted to say, I have a huge amount of respect for you, you are a real professional in terms of camera work which is awesome, not only the drone stuff but the whole staging and clearly the preparation. You delivery is incredible and you deserve so many views/subscribers than what you get. I really hope this works for you - you really deserve it. One question, where did you stay on Flores?

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you very much for tge kind words, Neil. I am glad you've enjoyed the videos. I stayed in Santa Cruz das Flores.

[@Marisha_Piano]

Wow, my number is 500! 🤗 I'm glad! Thank you for the video!💗 You are lucky to be in one of the most fantastically beautiful places in the world. I also made a film about the Azores and saw many places, but you saw them in reality! You were there! Thanks for a very interesting movie!👍

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you very much for kind words. One day you'll be there and see its beauty with your eyes! Cheers!

[@Marisha_Piano]

@@viti_ontour Yes, I hope so! I like traveling very much! 🏞 Until then, I'm looking forward to your next videos!

[@user-om4st1un3w]

Loved all your Azores videos! Can you tell us in which time of the year have you visited them? Don't remember if you have mentioned it in any of the videos.

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you! Im you have enjoyed them! I was there in September.

[@tiagomaia00]

And the food and wine...

[@viti_ontour]

Yes, sir!

[@leilamagaro5427]

Thank you for your great videos on the Acores! They have been truly helpful in planning my trip to the islands! I only wish I was capable of using a drone ...next life perhaps. Keep safe - peace.

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you very much, Leila! I'm glad you have enjoyed it!

[@Deloryan]

Amazing Video! Thank you! Is it easy to Rent a Car or do it online before arriving there? I visited sao Miguel This summer, there it was Quite easy to organize. For next year, i am planning to visit more of the Azores. Maybe Flores with a daytrip to Corvo, and then next to another Island. What can you recommend? Thank you again for great 4 K Video!

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you! Im glad you enjoyed the video. Renting a car was relatively easy, however id recommend booking in advance as there is less selection as compared to São Miguel. Enjoy your trip! You will be up for a treat!

[@IlovePortugal332]

🇵🇹🙌🏼

[@viti_ontour]

[@18anstruther]

Thank you for an amazing video! Can I ask which month of the year you went to Flores? The weather seems very good despite the occasional fog.

[@viti_ontour]

Hi, thank you! I was there in September.

[@sabinereimer7809]

This "cut down" forest was the result of hurricane Lorenzo... a small Tornado broke down all this trees. The remaining wood is cut down to clear the area.

[@viti_ontour]

Makes sense

[@SmileyRays]

Excellent videos! How was the Internet access on each of the islands?

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you. Pretty good. Bought Vodafone sim in Lisbon, had no issues.

[@user-kg3zz9jl2d]

May I ask what month you visited there? Looks like great weather. There are few things that get me emotional but the end of this video at the falls did. Heaven on earth. Thank you for capturing the most perfect moment I have ever seen.

[@viti_ontour]

Hi, thank you very much for your note. I visited in September, weather was great.

[@lyooo3005]

Amazing video series! How many days have you been on each island?

[@viti_ontour]

Thank you! Sao Miguel i spent about 4 days, 2 Faial, 1 Pico, 3 Flores

[@lyooo3005]

@@viti_ontour okay, thank you!

[@sabinereimer7809]

Und der einzig sichtbare Einwohner von Fajazinha war mein Mann José der gerade einen Brunnen repariert hat...🤣🤣🤣

[@viti_ontour]

😁

[@christobar]

Looks like those trees were damaged by a storm or something? They were all snapped off half way up?

[@viti_ontour]

Very possible

[@westwoodcoronado]

Well...great videos. So, if you had to pick an island to retire on which one and what area/town would you pick?

[@viti_ontour]

thank you! I'd pick Flores Island, because it's remote and quite.

[@goncalovizeu940]

Hey, what’s the camera that you use for the drone?

[@viti_ontour]

Mavic Air 2

[@Camellot1969]

I plan in May 13-20 to fly from Vienna to Sao Miguel. so nu much time but i need a second island. What Do you proposal to me ? Is warm enough to stay in tent? or what the price for a night? Thanks

[@viti_ontour]

Flores is my favorite. May-September should be pretty warm. Enjoy!

[@viti_ontour]

You can also stay at airbnb. Faily reasonable prices

[@nickbamber268]

Great video footage and commentary. Some of the music seemed a bit too hyper for scenery it accompanied.
