Beautiful sunset at Ha Long Bay! 🌅 What was your favorite part of the trip?
@@cwizardsclub sunset 🌅 was certainly up there. Just the relaxing vibe overall was really nice.
We love the video. We’re planning a trip April/May to Cambodia/ Vietnam. I’m getting old, the background music drowned out a bit of your voice and CC wasn’t available.
@@mikeford5253 thanks for the feedback. We hope you have a wonderful trip!
@mikeford5253 close captions now added.
Great video guys! All the best for the upcoming year and look forward to seeing more of your travels.
@@petejames440 thank you for your kind words. Very much appreciated 🙏 G&E
You went to my 2 favorites countries in Asia. Vietnam and Cambodia. God bless you have a wonderful year. GRETTINGS FROM PERÚ ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Fantastic! And thank you for your kind words. All the best.
Thanks for visit Cambodia
It was an amazing experience & we hope to return soon.
@thanks 🙏
Wow! A must watch for anyone planning a trip, excellent and insightful information👏🏻
@@JoanMolloy-b8h thank you for your kind words and support ❤️
One of the nicer Algarve coastal towns and we've seen quite a few. Airbnbs or local villa rentals are great options compared to the more expensive cramped hotels. Though do yourselves a favour and avoid this town or any other along the Algarve during peak summer season. Crazy busy and definitely not a relaxing experience. Off or shoulder season of early spring or fall, are much better times to visit. And be sure to take in a good part of the famous Seven Hanging Valleys trail along the coast from Carvoeiro. Absolutely spectacular!!!
Thanks for sharing! I'am planning to go their either in July or end of September/early October. Which hotel did you stay at and were you satisfied?
Hi. We stayed in a friend’s Villa so unfortunately we can’t be much help to you on that one. Have a fantastic trip!
Definitely avoid going anywhere in the Algarve In July. Unfortunately WAY too crowded! :( Not quite as warm in the shoulder season of September/October but still very comfortable and less crowded! 👍
Would you guys recommend with a toddler?
Sure. We see no reason why not @brandandpromote Lots of toddlers there when we visited.
@ good to hear, thank you. Was just wondering if it was pram friendly. Did you explore any of the nearby towns, any other recommendations. We’re likely going to fly into Faro, and I’m thinking of splitting the 10 days across Carveiro and another.. do you have any other tips?
@@brandandpromote Yes we visited a few local towns close to Carvoeiro. I mentioned their names towards the end of the video. Pronounciation is likely not corrct but you will be able to look them up. Make sure you explore the boardwalk that runs along the clifftops and walk up the streets that come off the square. The places to eat on the square can be 20% more expensive but just wonder up the streets that run from the square and you will find some great eating spots. Have fun!
Amazing trip😍
Great
thank you!
Beautiful part of the world!
Sure is Luis!
I’m heading to Dubai next April, intending to have a tandem skydive whilst I’m there. Great video
@@markrichards7164 I’m not sure we are as brave as you Mark but enjoy!
Your video content is impressive, and the quality is commendable. However, I noticed you might be facing challenges with views and rankings. Would you like me to share some tips to help you reach your goals?
We go there 3 times a year. Wonderful jewel in portugal
@@scottishtravellerarch6088 We can understand why. It’s spectacular!
tough task! But you rocked it! thank you!
Thank you @cyprienl
Which boat company did you hire ?
I believe it was Benagil Sea Cave Tours. Black boats. We just booked it right off the beach.
Most iconic pubs in the world I seen a spoons on a Monday morning more busy than that
Love from India
I want to join you for a walk! Thanks for the tour 👌🏻
Anytime @luisbarnett7563
I❤ Dubai Definitely l will go back again
It's a good informational video, but please, if you're going to do UA-cam videos of your foreign adventures, learn to pronounce the names properly. Having an Aussie accent is no excuse! Carvoeiro = Car-vwair-o Silves - Sil-vesh Portimao = Por-ti-maow
Car-very-oh about did me in, lol
Mayor Khan no doubt about it😊😅😂
Another great vid Grant! Best line..”what constitutes a botanical garden Esther? I dunno!” 😂 btw your video of Singapore has me wanting to go back and see a couple of things we missed last year!
@@petejames440 thank you 🙏
You’re pronouncing it wrong….😅
@@TriciaCoxx ha ha so true. I’ve heard it pronounced 10 different ways. My Aussie accent knows only one way 🤷♂️
Right on 7mins! What an adventure. Love tyese videos. Keep up the travelling!
thanks Luis!
Fantastic little video capturing your 3 wonderful days in Singapore ❤
@@kelvgan thank you 🙏
G`day Grant and Esther, Its a big thumbs up from me...I really enjoy your channel..well done and keep up the great work! Pete
@petejames440 thank you. That is very kind.
The Year of the Rabbit was in 2023 and this year, 2024 is the year of the Dragon.
This is a funny story. I asked the hotel front desk and the cab drivers what year it was. They both said it was the year of the Rabbit 🐇. We got to China town & there were a lot of rabbits 🐇 on display so I thought i cant be wrong. 😂 Clearly my hotel staff & cab driver need updating…as do I. 🤣🤣
Could be they flim this in the year of rabbit and upload it in the year of dragon ?

@@travelswithgrantandesther 2024 is indeed the year of the dragon, maybe you arrive near the end of the rabbit. 2023 dec or 2024 early jan.
Awesome video and your effort in this incredible ❤❤
Thank you 🙏
Such a good travel vlog of Singapore! Can't wait to visit!
Thanks Luis. You’ll love it.
Thanks for sharing i am arranging a very special occasion there in June and have hired a big villa up the hill
Great. You'll love it. Recommend you try some of the eating places that lead out of the square also. Have fun!
My wife and I were here a month ago. While it is a great access spot for seeing the sea caves and other nearby attractions, we found the town itself to be a complete tourist trap. We'd never go back there. The beach was also very dirty, over-crowded, and the food for the most part was disappointing.
I’m sorry to hear your overall experience wasn’t favourable. Ours was most certainly the complete opposite. We were there 9 days and had the opportunity to explore a lot of restaurants away from the town square which were fantastic. I’m truly shocked about your experience about cleanliness, that really surprises me as we found it very clean overall. All the best and I hope any future experience in Carvoeiro is more favourable. G&E
I am so sorry to hear of your disappointment in visiting Carvoeiro. My wife and I visit 2 or 3 times per year, but never in July or August as it is much too busy and too hot.
Are you sure you went there not Albufera
I'd love to go to Portugal!
It’s amazing ❤
Love it
Thanks Luis!
incredible city . definition of a global powerhouse metropolis . love the video but being in such a city for a day isn't fair you guys have to come back so much to do and to explore
Thanks Mark. 👍 Looking forward to coming back for a few more days & exploring a lot more.
Don't you guys think their skyscrapers are quite ugly
There is certainly a lot of them isn’t there! 😮
Great video
Thanks!
Great Video. BYU is insane!
Thanks Dan. The athlete facilities at BYU would put the very best AFL teams facilites to shame. They were insane. Amazing.
Such a great video Grant! Thank you for sharing such a special event! All the best to the newlyweds Jack and Kayla. Barnett Family is just getting bigger!
Amazing video! Lovely event. And so many runners in Utah!!
Great video!
Thanks!
Looks great - nice video 🏖
Thank you!
Hi Grant, Greetings from South Florida. Great reviews on the Mercane Jubel. I have an opprtunity to buy new a 1200 watt version of the Mercane Juebel called the Isinwheel X3Pro for about $500. Same model scooter as yours. Would you recommend this scooter? Thanks, Lou K.
I would go for it. Great ride.
@@travelswithgrantandesther Thank you!
Are you still happy woth the Mercane Jubel? Are you still using it?
Yes we are still using it. Great Scooter 🛴
Thanks for visiting my home, I hope you come to The Tweed again ❤
