    Jak to dobrze, że jesteśmy znowu w Anglii. Miejsca, które nam pokazujesz są przepiękne. Tyle ciekawych informacji. Czekam na następne filmy. Ps. Przykro mi, że musiałeś sam podróżować. Zawsze jest raźniej z kimś bliskim.❤👍

    Beautiful, brings back memories of when I lived and worked on the island!
    The islanders are some of the most laid back (“lazy”) people I’ve ever met, so don’t be surprised about cancellations! That’s what it is! But that’s the beauty of it!
    I’ve been on the chairlift and did the boat trip aswell.
    Also the bus ride up to the battery on the double decker bus, and this was at more scary than the chairlift!
    Driving on those narrow roads , sometimes gives the passengers the feeling that maybe the driver won’t make it! Specially on windy days!

    I have ridden in a chairlift similar to that one. With my mother beside me. It was in Gatlinburg, Tennessee.

    I took a holiday on IOW last year and did the tour around the island. I did take the chair lift down to Alum Bay. It’s stunning. You can also get a Breezer Bus to the Battery etc. I took the hovercraft to IOW from Southsea and the island is so well connected by the buses, it’s not impossible to do it all by public transport. An amazing place. Loved it and this video reminded me of how much I really enjoyed it. You always do a fantastic job on your videos and capture the essence of any place you visit. Thank you

    My weekend is never complete until I can sit down and watch your latest video! The peace and happiness it brings me is indescribable. I'm only 12 minutes into this one and already I can't wait for the rest if the series! Missed Will, sad that he couldn't join you but that was a great picture of him on your picnic together! Again THANK YOU SO MUCH for all you do and all the hard work you put i to bringing these videos to us across the world. I'm eternally grateful ❤

    The island is beautiful, and the ocean views are picturesque. I would love to take that chairlift; it looks to be very exciting, but in a fun way. Thanks for the video; you do a wonderful job every time.

    Really enjoyed the garden at Farringford. I am in United States. Love all you videos. My family was from England, way back in the day. I've always wanted to go. As I am Seventy three, I will have to travel by arm chair. . Thank you for the wonderful trips. Take care 😊

    What an interesting island, would never have thought there was so much to see on that small place. The pics of the needles were spectacular. Look forward to the next installment.

      That was just a tiny part! Lots more to come and even then we still won't get around the entire island in this series! There will have to be second one!

    Such a lovely video - but that’s true of ALL your videos. I love your channel and really enjoy every minute of your tours. I almost got dizzy when you went down on the lift - that will be something I couldn’t do😅. Looking forward to the next episodes🫶🏻🤗🥰

    Well you never disappoint, what a lovely spot. The thatched church looked lovely, are there others or is it unique? The sands look amazing, there is a similar spot in Queensland called Rainbow Beach which I saw many years ago. I love that you put up prices so anyone considering following in your footprints has an idea of what things will cost them, and Im sure some people who watch your videos would do so. Thanks again for all the effort you go to. Cheers Cheryl 🙂

    Visited a lot of the sights along the Southern English coast on my final trip to the Old Dart. Enjoyed the Museums in Portsmouth but never thought of heading over to the Isle of Wight. I may have reconsidered if I'd known about the last remaining hovercraft. Rode the cross Channel ones in the old days before they were discontinued.
    Only ever rode 1 chairlift in Europe (up to Monte Solaro on Capri) but I certainly do remember the feeling of the bottom dropping out when in the cablecar coming down from the lip of the glacial valley to Bolzano in Italy. The English gardens and thatched buildings were always a highlight of any fine day in Britain.

    What a beautiful place. We are debating whether to visit Devon, Cornwall and the Isle of Wight in a 3 week period would be too much. Thanks for including info on the Breezer for those of us depending on public transit when we travel. (And yes, we would ride the chair lift…great fun!)

    Believe me there was a different reason the boat was not running. The lift chairs weren't swaying in the wind at all. Great video Thanks.

    When my sister and I visited in 2019 we decided to walk down, which was fine. We actually got the last boat as the water was rough. I'm afraid of heights so we walked back up after the boat ride.

    LOVE these videos!! I would definitely ride the chairlift....but did my eyes deceive me..there is no front bar to hold you in??? Exciting!!! I seriously doubt this would be allowed in the US...all the more reason to do it😂

      Yes there is a bar, it swings down from above just like on a ski lift. 😊
