What's your craziest adventure? 🤪

[@abroadstateofmind5571]

I’m working in Toronto right now but can’t wait to go back home 🇧🇸 awesome video !! As much as I try to make an excuse for being away it’s just temporary in me heart

[@AleSalvino]

oh wow, hope you can go back home soon, what an incredible country! 🇧🇸

[@cjsweeting7]

You can also visit Harbour Island across from Eleuthera, and the beach has pink sands. In Nassau is also the food area, with various restaurants, called the Fish Fry. Enjoy the islands and the people.

[@AleSalvino]

totally agree! Eleuthera was the one we missed but would love to come back to it, thanks a lot for watching and the recommendations!

[@SwiftyTravels]

I’ve been to the Bahamas and have seen this resort but we’ve never stayed. As a family I have a problem enjoying large resorts because of the inflated prices of everything and hidden fees. I appreciate you addressing this on the hotel. I would still like to visit one of these days

[@AleSalvino]

Oh yes I can imagine for a family this must be crazy and you're right the hidden prices are insane, like you said, to try once definitely a good idea but to do it in different locations (like the one they have in Dubai too, etc.) no way haha

[@NoNo-ny4uf]

you can also check the bahamar resort if you decide to come back

[@explorinwithlaurin]

Your shots of Atlantis are amazing!! Your videos always amaze us with quality! Loved that you guys showed life outside the resorts-it’s heating up in Texas and a fresh coconut sounds amazing!

[@AleSalvino]

Thank you so much guys! :) Haha I can imagine the heating must be crazy over there but hopefully soon it gets better! Excited about your next vlog ✌️

[@coreaentusojos5082]

[@AleSalvino]

Thanks man! You have some great travel videos too! 🙏

[@BahamasMusicLasers]

Love seeing tourists find my hometown interesting. A small bit of advice, try to connect with some of the locals. We're usually more than happy to showcase some of our local lifestyle and resources lol

[@WITYTRAVELS]

Whoa big spender! That marina at night! 😍😍

[@AleSalvino]

Oh yes, just wanted to experiment a bit! 🤪 These places at night were insanely beautiful :) Well, night, day, anytime haha

Wow..clear blue water

Indeed, it was really beautiful, thanks for watching Flor!

Thanks Mike! How’s the PMK photo going? the few videos you made about it were pure gold! 💪🏻

[@CarloPavan]

The most awesome footage I've ever seen, you mate are incredible! :D It's fun that we both posted videos about the Caribbean this week (although my shots are not even close to yours ahhahahaha)! Thank you once again for another great video :) P.S. Atlantis' prices really are I N S A N E.

[@AleSalvino]

Ciao Carlo! So glad to hear from you :) I'm on my way to watching yours as I know you've been a lot in the Caribbean, it's exciting to see you back and yes Atlantis is truly insane haha

[@KrisKazlauskaite]

As always - pure pleasure to watch! But the lime lapses - OMG, looked like a fairytale! 🥲😍

Great my dear Friend Have a blessed time!

[@AleSalvino]

Thanks Lara, you too!

[@aramatkinson]

😮 What an opening, just sliding through a shark pond lol. That coconut moment made me so thirsty haha. Took me back to my days in Madagascar. I got screwed a few times in Canada forgetting about the tax/tips you have to add, good to know about atlantis too. Pricy place! Nothing worse than paying through the roof for an average meal. If you ever go to Madagascar you're in for a treat, amazing food (italian/french/african influences combined) and you don't have to pay much for a good quality meal, just need to find the places.

[@AleSalvino]

Thanks Aram! Oh yeah, the "tip culture" is definitely a whole new thing for those of us not used to it (happy to give tips but I don't want to feel forced to do so just because it's like that haha). Madagascar! This place has been on my to-do list for soooo long, hopefully next year as this year my travel plan is insane haha, I'll reach out whenever this happens so you can give me some tips! 🇲🇬

[@aramatkinson]

@@AleSalvino luckily my Canadian girlfriend will be able to save me from any situations I might accidentally offend people lol. Oooo if you do definitely let me know, I can put you in touch with the best guide/translator ever

[@NoNo-ny4uf]

i hope you guys enjoyed my country, thanks for staying!

[@AleSalvino]

Pleasure! You have an amazing country! 🇧🇸 Next time for sure, we'll spend much more time there :)

[@bubbleyum21]

can you talk about how cell phones work in bahamas? is there wifi? when calling home is it a problem? or when calling around locally is there an issue?

[@AleSalvino]

There is Wi-Fi yes, particularly in Nassau and Freeport. But I highly recommend you buy a SIM card on arrival to have more freedom. I think I bought BTC (the primary telecommunications provider in the Bahamas). ✌️

[@ammoyafagan5407]

i was suppose to go last year but couldnt because the familys that i have let everything blow up for me....i need a job lost ma job last week i can do live in housekeeping baby sitting am very humble i dont steel

[@danielgreen1475]

Vocês são brasileiros? Sou das Bahamas mas vivo em Portugal, então eu consigo falar português, mais ou menos. A próxima vez vocês estão nas Bahamas devem visitar mais ilhas, se possível. Nassau é bom mas ainda há mais para ver nesta nação de ilhas. Obrigado por visitando o meu país!

[@AleSalvino]

Oi Daniel, tudo bem? Eu sou argentino e a minha esposa é lituana. A gente realmente ama as Bahamas! Na verdade o teu português é muito bom cara! Na próxima vez iremos visitar mais ilhas com certeza!! Abraço! :)

[@danielgreen1475]

@@AleSalvino obrigado pelas tuas gentis palavras. Fico feliz porque vocês divertiram a vossa viagem nas Bahamas! Até próxima, fiquem bem!

[@monikakazlauskaite985]

Stupid question but… if Bahamas is soo sunny.. when rains there? Soil must be very very dry if its not raining enough🤷‍♀️

[@AleSalvino]

Probably forgot to mention that 70% of the rainfall is between May and October :) So sunny but the water is always coming back 🤪

[@monikakazlauskaite985]

[@Abrpatel]

Nice tips for the Bahamas! Looks lush and beautiful, but have to pay the price for that beauty :D Covid tests is a huge friction in traveling now, its annoying.

[@AleSalvino]

Absolutely, everything has a a cost haha 💸 Yes hopefully this year we make progress and at least some of these restrictions can be lifted :)

[@chey6305]

Has a Bahamian i got so happy when you said Bahamians instead Bohemians💀😭

[@AleSalvino]

haha thank you, amazing country and people!

[@GinaLuciaReads]

So interesting how expensive it is when you're there. I bet it would be really hard to find vegan food which is a shame.

[@AleSalvino]

Oh yes, it was ridiculous the price haha. For vegetarians a challenge, for vegans I think almost impossible and it's a shame given the number of restaurants they have in place! I would understand if it was just in other areas of the island but in the resort complex... no excuses really :(

[@GinaLuciaReads]

@@AleSalvino yeah I'd agree with that!
