Crimean Vacation. Timelapses and Fragments from Our Week in Yalta Intourist (No Narration)

Описание: I recently had the pleasure of spending a week in Yalta, Crimea with my my wife and kids. Usually we're extremely active when we travel, opting to cover long distances and head off the beaten path (I actually have a video on the perfect way to see Europe with little kids in the works!), but after an unusually difficult few months at work, we decided to switch things up and... stay completely put.

So after arriving in Crimea and making the two hour drive from Simferopol to Yalta, we pretty much spent the entirety of our time exploring the beach and the grounds of our hotel - which we absolutely fell in love with, the Yalta Intourist. Our kids couldn't get enough of the on-territory water park, the exotic animal zoo and the various entertainment programs, while my wife and I loved the all inclusive dining and amenities... but most of all, we LOVED the view, which reminds me quite a bit of one of my absolute favorite places in the world, the Amalfi Region in Italy, along with Salerno and Sorrento.

Take a look for yourself and tell me what you think - there's no commentary in this video since I initially shot everything in Russian for home use, but after looking over the footage, I decided it would be unfair to keep it to myself, especially the Time lapse with the star trails at the beginning!

Anyway, it's getting colder in Moscow now, but memories of Crimea continue to warm my heart, and we'll certainly be coming back in the future - next time for a road trip of the entire Crimean coast! To those of you choosing between Crimea and Sochi - You can't say that you've been to the perfect Russian Vacation destination until you've seen both! :)

Thank you very much for watching! And stay warm this Fall and Winter season. If you enjoyed the video, it would be great if you'd subscribe for more! Also, I'd love to hear your ideas on what you'd like to see me film in Russia, or otherwise!

Filmed in 4K UHD and 4k60 on the DJI OSMO Action and on the Nikon Z6 mirrorless camera, mostly handheld, with periodic assistance from the Zhiyun Crane 3 :)
