Please travel south india, it is another world
Thanks Adam and Corinne. Great overview, where I agree with much of it. BUT, we were there for 5 weeks and never got ill - and I have a weak stomach. How? (1) We took Travelan tablet before each meal (except breakfast). It coats the gut and stops bad bugs binding. It was made here in Australia, not sure if it is available around the world. And (2) we took the oral cholera vaccine before leaving (shown to also be immuno-protective against Delhi belly). This two-pronged approach worked spectacularly and I ate anything I wanted. (I also don't think we got scammed at all!)
Wow!!! Thanks. I wish that we had spoken to you before going👍 We were aware of some of the scams before going, so we knew what to look out for👍 Cheers buddy
Nice. I.m an British indian person and everytime I go to India for some reason I love it. I might move to india in near future. Imagine that.
Yes, there are definitely some perks if you are from Britain👍 Wish you all the best mate :) :)
Going to India in 14 days Can’t wait
Cool!!! Have a great time!!! :)) :)
Great vid as always. My wife and I are off to Warsaw at the end of Feb, and have been enjoying your Poland playlist in anticipation.
Thanks so much Paul🙂👍 Warsaw hey? What a cool city😎 We had a great time when we visited. Glad you have been enjoying the vids👍 Let us know how you both get on😎😍 Adam & Corinne
Have a great time in our country Paul! 😃
Cheers from Sri Lanka!
These are all the things that make travel so and appealing. The good and the bad. Countries like India is where all the action is and far more interesting than western countries. Can’t wait to get there one day.
Spot on there guys!!! It would be so boring if all countries were the same👍
I'm really glad to hear that you had a great time in India overall. I really like the honest opinions you have given about the good and the bad. It is unfortunate to see or experience any scams on any trip, but I feel it is always important to not let the negatives ruin a trip as you can miss out on all the great things a destination like India has to offer. I could tell from all your India vlogs that you were having an amazing trip with a lot of great sights, food, and people! I definitely would love to India someday as it looks incredible! Thank you for these awesome videos on India! Keep on traveling!
Thanks so much buddy!!! Yes, India was an amazing country - we had a great time👍 We always like to show the reality in the places we visit. Nowhere is perfect👍 New destination - next week😜😜
I can't wait to see the videos from the new destination!
@@scottman895 Thanks Scott!
Loved your India travels
And the honest opinions . India wouldn’t be for us but that’s just a personal opinion and I’ve always said that but of course I’ve seen some lovely people beautiful country etc . It’s been interesting that’s for sure , safe travels and look forward to more videos coming 👍
Hey guys!!! 🙂🙂👍 Thanks so much for watching. We really appreciate it😎😍 On to the next one👍
Dear uncle
My name is Himanshu from capital New Delhi,India
As an Indian i would not suggest you to come to new delhi or visit agra as most people do that which increase population at such places not only increase scammer but also the pollution and dirt .But if you still want to come to these places there is must be a planned trip , not like flow with flow as many western traveller do..
Rather than visit South india , north india rajasthan this will be more exciting to you than this..............
@@heroman8096 😅good one..i even commented it .new delhi should def increase its standard...but i know there r multiple problems.and even the govt dont know which one to be focused
It's feels very comforting to hear you talk about India. :)
Ah, thanks Vaibhav.....so glad you enjoyed the video 😎😍
We Indian's don't get upset on criticism. Its good to criticise if things are not in order. India is hectic, its full of life. But it got a lots of problems. Honking, Traffic, livestokes on road, scammers, Trash problem. But glad you guys came to our country. We will change.

India is indeed on my bucket list. We will see if ever get there, my husband doesn't particularly seem interested in going. Maybe one day I'll have to tag along with you! ;) Hopefully I don't that Delhi Belly - everyone says I have an 'iron stomach'. Although I could definitely stand to lose some weight. LOL
Hope you get to India one day - it is a must for any avid traveller!
Hi both, catching up with you guys but working backwards! We’re back from NZ and still trying to get over jet lag, plus going through all our footage! Awesome to hear about your experiences in India, both the good and bad! We’ve never been to India but if we do we have to go with our eyes wide open! We did witness poverty in Peru but not on the scale of India by the sounds of things! Great honest chat both👍
Thanks guys - excited for your new series :)
it's not true those who travel to india will get sick . lot of people have been fine . if you are to eat street food In India, eat food that is made in front of you and is piping hot . have activated charcoal with you . if indian food does not suit you then you can eat western food in india as it's available in lot of the restaurants in the cities .
if you avoid delhi chances are you won't get scammed . 90% scams happen in delhi which is less than 0.03 percent of india .
some of beggars you see earns a lot (30k-40k INR in a month), more than lot of govt employees . few beggers in big cities make rs 300k/month . you can see them getting ready for the job .
india is 5th richest country in the world . it has lifted about 350 mil people out of poverty in last 15 years . when india got independence it it was super poor . about 50 trillion USD(in today's money) were looted by british in 190 years . india literally had to rise from the ashes . country also had 5 wars since independence . no other country has gone through so much brutality in history of mankind .
last year india had 18 million foreign tourists, this year it's expected to be more . each year tourism growing at a rapid rate . india has jumped 31 places in world tourism index in last 5 years .
there are lot of places in india which are not busy, not small pockets . himalayas is the biggest mountain range on earth. in fact you went to rishikesh, that's one of the busiest places in himalaya .
300k a month???? We are in the wrong jobs😜😜
@@JamesyboyExperiment yes some do . it's very profitable business in big cities in india . if they do daily labour they would earn 8k/month . that's why this profession they don't want to leave .
@@youngvoice2196 Wow!! Thanks for letting us know :) :)
Travelling in a huge 1.3 billion populated big country there is no surprise you will experience everything every country has good and bad parts , if anyone looking to visit India travel in good parts , if you want to experience everything travel in bad parts too ...
There are 156 Countries I am very lucky that I Born in India🇮🇳 👍🏼🙏🏽
Thank you guys for sharing your experience.
Yes, that is very true AKSHAY👍 Every single country that we visit has good and bad points. We just feel lucky that we had the opportunity to visit India again👍🙂
But
City of joy kolkata is so beautiful in India
Kolkata is most safest place in India....
Thanks!
Nice recap guys. And, no, it was not too negative. Looking forward to your next destination.
Thanks buddy!!!🙂🙂 New destination coming up next week!!😜😜👍
Hi guys👋👋 Totally agree with everything you've said.... Absolutely loved India when we travelled there❤️️❤️️👍👍 I found being alone that the best experience to is take a local with you when visiting sites.. This keeps the annoying ones away😀😀 New sub from Australia here🇦🇺🇦🇺❤️️❤️️
Thanks!!
seriously even in laundry damn guys.. these are good tips.. i know there are lots of positive and lots of bad as always,.. but this makes us aware in hotel that its always good to lock or bring your important stuff..
Very very true - we are always cautious with our expensive stuff
Nice video Guys! Thanks for taking us along on the India tour. We appreciate your openness and honestly about your visit. 😀😆👍
Hey , try to be as honest as we can to help others who may visit :) :)
Hi Its Been So Amaze To Find Your Channel On UA-cam You Guys Made so So Awsome Content And You seen Other UA-cam followers who have Done Vlog They Crossed Millions of Views and Followers and India it's so Big Different State Different Customs Traditions Rich heritage History and Delicious Global Street Food I Must say Just Today I Got Notification In UA-cam and Iam in love your content about india Lots of love xoxoxo ❤🇮🇳
Hi Gautam - welcome to our channel!!! We really appreciate your support. Thank you for your kind comment. We have a whole playlist for India - we hope you enjoy it - Adam and Corinne 😎😍
@@JamesyboyExperiment ❤🖤💛💚🧡💝
Bro even some Indians can not diggest Indian street food. Cause it has lottt of spices so what can foreigner expect u might get stomach ache bcoz u can't handle Indian food but food poisoning is extremely rare I mean l have eaten in cheapest places but never got foodpoisen
The best thing I like about both of you is that you both are very much in sync with each other. Whatever Adam says your wife agrees with you. Whenever she says something, you agrees with her. It feels like you both understand each other well and know what other person is expressing or wants to express. It's a good mutual understanding.
Thanks so much for noticing Hitesh. We have been together for over 14 years now and know each other very well.🙂👍 Thanks so much for watching mate , we really appreciate it😎😍
damn grabbing Corinne's bag.. lucky cor didnt pull him down and went hulk! on him! :O , i would lol
Haha!! Kick ass lol!
We Indians love to have guest like you. More you enjoy your trip more obliged we feel. Please do visit India again and explore the eastern and southern flavors.
You are so right when you say things happen anywhere you go. I've had the same experiences in places I've been. I also agree with not giving money to kids. A lot of people do - because it helps the out, and they feel bad - but it also supports the idea that this is ok. If people continue to give things in these situations, parents are going to continue to exploit their children - which isn't right in my opinion. I know people are desperate and people are willing to do almost anything in those scenarios.
Thanks Josh - very true
We have to be smart and careful in india.good luck
Yeay! Another great video from my favourite youtuber💕. You guys are amazing! Thanks Adam & Corinne for sharing your Wonderful experiences in India with us. So what's next? 😅
Hey Aliaa - hope you are well? Thanks so much - so glad you enjoyed the series. New series starts next week.....hold tight 😉 Adam and Corinne 😎😍
@@JamesyboyExperiment Yup, I'm doing fine. Just recovered from Flu. Looking forward for the next series. Can't wait!👌🤩
@@aliaalea Aw - sorry you had flu - it is awful isn't it. Glad you are feeling better now. Hoping for the first video of the next series to be out this week coming. ;)
@@aliaalea New video is premiering tomorrow - thanks for your patience Aliaa :)
@@JamesyboyExperiment omg! Yes! #Keepcalmandwaiting
As Indian, thanks for the honest opinions. I am sure India will become better place in coming years. For Delhi belly, as Delhi native myself we don’t eat street foods. For street foods, there are some food chains like bikanervala or Haldirams present in almost all over Delhi. You can use Zomato and swiggy to check good food places around you with ratings and prices. about water, everyone should use bottled water outside homes. For rides inside city, use Uber or ola to skip taxi scams. And in last India is not a developed country but there are areas which are like modern. You should come to experience the ancient culture and architecture. Buddha enlightened here. You can experience yoga and meditation. Goa could be a chilling place and for relaxation.
Thanks so much Yogesh - we have a whole playlist for India....where we do lots of exploring 😎😍👯
Jamesyboy Experiment thanks for visiting India.
@@yogeshgoel6031 You are welcome - we really enjoyed ourselves :)
once woman needed milk in india , she went 5 star, rate was 600rs per litre
then they stuck in village ,village woman offer pure milk for them for them, she also said take this1 litre extra for further journey!!
you guys need really find out what is humanity
By some miracle I didnt get ill until for like a week but I had prebiotics before I left and it helped :) good points.
Cheers guys 👍
Add yogurt to your daily diet in india to avoid Delhi belly.. It really helps.
Cool!!! Thanks for the tip!!!👍
Thank you guys.It was nice to see India from your perspective.
Thanks so much buddy for watching 😎😍
come to india and expect diarrhea and scam :D haha! anything else its bonus.. man so true anywhere in asia too! :O
Haha!! Yes - get some of these in most places hey!
@@JamesyboyExperiment thn why do you eat street food in India,, all kinds of restaurants r available with all pricing category, with all types of cuisines, try those..
Street food, u can't take it regularly else u will fall ill irrespective of u r foreigner or native..
We take this spicy food once in a week or perhaps in a month..Those r tasty but not healthy.. So u should b mindful of this no!?
Very honest
Thanks Samreen - we always try to be 😎😍
Thanks for comin...
We really enjoyed our time in India 😎😍
Indian south part is so rich, educated, most safe🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🤔🤔🤔i am indian but its true
Thanks so much 😎😍
Even being indian traveling can give you the worst experience in India because traveling to another state is like traveling to another country.. I've gotten sick , been scammed etc..It feels so horrible and the best at the Same time because there are good thing also.. Anyways that's india you either love it or hate it ..it will remain the same btw i loved your opinion
Hey Nitya - thanks so much - glad you enjoyed the video. To hear of your experiences is so interesting 😎😍
Hey guys so where are you going next?
Ah, new destination next week🤐😜
what is definition of rich in actual
is it eating in 5 star only?
No, fuck that, not for me, Deli belly . Loved the videos and really great to get an honest review. Crime and poverty, I just need to go into any UK city to see that. Keep up the great work ( if you call it work ?).
Hey Tommy - hope you are well? So glad you enjoyed the series, appreciate you watching. It is a lot of hard work to film and edit these videos so definitely call it work but we love it so much that it is very enjoyable work. We hope to be able to do it full time one day 😎😍
travelled to india as a solo 68 yr old woman with back pack. I had a plan but either way india is incredible but watch out for touts they are slick and yes i got scammed but live and learn
Come to Chennai
Hello Corrine and Adam, I continue to watch your travel videos on the TV and my I pad. You are a lovely couple who come across so nicely with your friendly banter. I have visited a number of the places you have visited. So interesting ,
Informative and entertaining so much so I have revisited them, I have also recommended friends and family to watch you both. Please keep having fun and enjoying yourselves. Very best wishes to you both Joe 👍👍
Hi Joe - wow, thank you so much for your kind comment. We feel so chuffed that you enjoy our videos and to think you recommend our channel to others is amazing to us. We really appreciate your support 😎😍 - Adam and Corinne 😊
Colonic irrigation... lol😆
Ha😂💩
Northern part of India is generally kinda unsafe compared to other parts of India.
Hello Sir, I really loved that you had great time. I suggest you to visit Punjab also. Please reply to my comment
good job
Thanks mate!!!🙂🙂
Plan n visit Pakistan after Corona virus vanishes. Pakistan ll make u feel at home u ll b welcomed with open arms. Stay safe stay healthy stay home while covid9.
We would love to visit there!!! Thank you!!! Stay safe :) :)
Love it, 100% agree on these, My suitcase was like a chemist ready for the Delhi Belly lol
Ha😂 Cheers buddy!!! You were one of the ones who got away with it💩
Eat where local eats.
@@DP-wp3og Yep! We did!!!!!!!!!!
the truth is out! NOO THE END OF THE TRIP! - when we meeting :P haha
Haha!! I'm sure we'll cross paths at some point, somewhere in the world!
Well I won't call it I'll 😉 it's reboot
Harald.. you are really a nice person but some Indians, due to poverty, cheat foreigners.I feel really bad when my guest is cheated.The best way to enjoy a trip in india is
1.you need to learn hindi language or else many people will cheat you, especially people who do businesses on street which is illegal but the street food is nice.
2.there are all types of places in india..some places are much better than tourist places.You might find them in Mumbai city.
3.Harald if any of your friends come to India.. you do not need a guide.. instead you need a college student who will explore India with you..I can do it as well without taking any money
4.Indian police n aged people follow strict laws such as .. you can't do Parkour on the streets.. you can't swim in risky places other than that you can do anything sensible.
5.The people over here cheat because it's not affordable for the common people to start a business in india n therefore they come on streets to sell products.. there are government vans who come once in a week to confiscate their stuff.
6.The most important and last thing is that we need to explore those places which are rare and will be missed rather than slums.. This message was for Harald a youtuber and I am forwarding to all foreigners... I'm just tired of forwarding this to foreigners but I want them to be on the safer side
Most of the things you said are true. I guess there are some bad people everywhere. The hospitality of India as you said is unparalleled. Each state in India is like a different country wrt food , culture, clothing, language, architecture etc. a lifetime would be less to explore India properly.
Very true - such a great country !!! :) :)
I do hope you will come to India again and visit different parts where you haven’t been to and have an even better time. Cheers.
@@Vasudev007 Thanks Kamal :)
People a begger who died in the streets of Chennai/India was found having an worth of Rs. 1 Crore which is equal to 1,04,925 pound. Because this is the easiest way to make money here. There are beggers in India like the way people beg for food out of hunger in other developed countries. You can call them beggers. Unlike other beggers who would want only your money they are not beggers but they are scammers as you said. If you want to escape do not respond to them. They are the biggest actors better than Charlie Chaplin/James Bond/ Merlin Mandroe/Elizabeth Taylor. If you think you want to help them offer some food they will run away from you. They get ready everyday nearby with their dirty costumes and there is a make up personal for the daily routine. All these fun happens everyday and I have seen them personally. This includes children who are also well trained.
Well guys, I'm happy to finally see a wrap up video. How long were you actually in India? As I commented on a previous video, India is not my cup of tea. Will never be a destination for me. And your first several reasons (truths) are why. Food sickness, thieves and wild animals/snakes roaming the streets. And you wonder why you don't see many westerners there? Very dirty and germ ridden food prep and living conditions, etc. Sorry to be harsh guys, but it's one of the Truths. Many people know this. Only thing worse is China with flu and virus around every corner. Hope you don't travel there anytime soon. Speaking of traveling, where are you headed next? Looking forward to the "experiment".... but please be safe out there.
I was on 21 day tour, never saw a snake on the street. A lot ,a lot of westerners. The food is great in the hotel restaurants, none of 34 members of my group got sick. The hotels were great, clean and much better than in Italy or France /Spacious/ . I loved every hour spent in India. And I'll be back there. The monuments are outstanding.
I will agree the geography and sights are interesting, but that's about it. We all have our opinions, and I respect yours.
You are entitled for your opinion. But just wanted to highlight that what you described is rare and not the norm. Its easy to avoid it. Even indians dont travel on their own, most people will do pre-planning or travel with agency in a group. Tourism isnt very mature industry and there are too many variations.
@silverlicious.
Firstly nobody is inviting or forcing you for a free stay in India. You don't wish to visit that's ur wish.
But I want to enlighten u on certain things u said about reasons of not traveling here
I have been staying in India since birth, I have not seen a single snake roaming on streets randomly. If u visit a national park that's where u can find them.
Talking about scams I have been to USA,Uk and many parts of Europe, I have been scammed der aswell . good and bad people are found everywhere.
Thirdly talking about food, even we the local people think twice before eating street food. It all depends where u eat how much u spend. U get cheapest food aswell as 5 star restaurant food.
I just want to say that whatever experience they had u can totally have different experience,one has to be open minded,just don't get influenced by media or UA-camrs or stereotypes. One has to experience it yourself before passing judgements.
@@Hello00856 no need to be rude. OP was polite and mentioned multiple times that its not his cup of tea. You can surely correct them and i agree with your points. but respect their opinion.
Not the flannel!!!!!
I know!!! 😲
question is giving 10$tip to waiters is ok, showing narrow mind if some one ask you 1/6th of dollar for food, pretending to be doing something for humanity at UN, doing it actual is different thing
russians dont talk about these things racism,human right, but they are too ahead in these things for helping others country personally than west
Where will you go next?
Hey Prof!! New destination coming next week🤐😜👍
thought you gone come pakistan by road buttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt : (
Hey Hamid - not yet with this virus but hopefully in the future 😎😍
@@JamesyboyExperiment Pakistan waiting for you don't take long Best of luck with your Health and Virus
A stone and a half!!!!
In 10 days!!!!💩
I enjoyed your sitty downy video.
Ah, cheers🙂🙂
Scammers are everywhere in the world. Not surprised. Hows the smell? 🤪
Yes, that is very true!! You have to be careful in any country you visit👍
Because of western weak immunity and beggar r not poor its business
