Travalong Journeys · hero films, round three

Pick the films for the hero

Each place in its best season, plus European cities, luxury resorts and adventure. Three kinds of film:

If a film shows Tap to play, tap it. Your Mac is in Low Power Mode, which stops films starting by themselves.
Adobe Stock, 4K, free: professional footage, plays as you scroll. The faint watermark goes once we license it, at no cost.
Free to use: Pixabay clips, also usable straight away.
YouTube: the best drone films and official hotel films. Tap Play, pause on the shot you love, then tap Use this moment. It saves the exact time, for example "E21 at 1:42", and I cut about nine seconds from there.
