Dude, your vids are really the best. Thanks for not "over-producing" them and just giving us the straight information in an approachable, affable manner. Thumbs up!
Thaaanks for the tips.. i was also in Bangkok to film for my Channel, i travel to every single country in the world.. love to see more of your vids... good stuff!
❤️🇹🇭My favorite country of all time. Best foods, people, beautiful cultures. The thing that I like about Japan and ThaiLand is that they have never been colonized to any country from Europe before. So they're original and have many beautiful cultures and tradition to learn from. Love from 🇺🇸
please check You Tube on how (baby)elefants are abused and broken for tourism and the entertainment industries in Thailand!! You will be shocked. This abuse is legal in Thailand and done by people without a heart!! There are no animal rights in Thailand, so dont be too enthusiastic about the beauty of Thailand.
When you've visited Bangkok there's no point in going anywhere else, First visit was in 2004 and still going back for more in Nov 2019 the greatest city on earth
I agree with everything you said in this video. But I recommend using ATM’s connected to banks. Not randoms on the streets. If you have any issues with your card being taken or not getting your money. It is the absolute biggest headache trying to get it taken care of. Where as one at banks someone can help right away if during banking hours. Or next day once they open. I prefer Thai bug repellent over US products. I swear their stuff works way better than anything from the states. Your video is full of extremely useful info that definitely needs if you have no idea what to expect.
Yep, the humidity is definitely a constant. I’m a local, and during the monsoons, before and after the rain, the humidity is so thick it sometimes feel like you are drowning, and that’s why you see local malls everywhere…BECAUSE it’s air conditioned … which explains why shopping culture continues to thrive here.
yep and lets also talk about how (baby)elefants are abused and broken in Thailand for entertainment!!! They probably feel like drowning when stuck in the hands of people with no hearts!!! But it is legal.... sad stories!!!!!
14:55 TBH the ice is varied. The cube one normally fine but the crushed one are quite varied. Depends on how good they transport and produce it. But you're not gonna have choice to chose when you got the ice from street vendors.

yo what up Topher & chris, new subbie here #150,258, i enjoy your travel tips and intelligent analysis. I've travelled the world too and still feel there is so much to see. Thanks for the support too.
Hey, thanks for the video. Here in Brazil, more specifically in northeast part like Bahia, Pernambuco, Rio Grande do Norte, Alagoas, we do have motorcycle taxis, it's also more common in small cities here in the northeast part... and also I think there's a lot of countries in Asia that have motorcycle taxis, like Vietnam, Indonesia, Camboja, Malaysia... it's actually very common and practical for them. :)
Bangkok has 3 seasons, my friend 😁 Walking inside this temple you're filming, the emerald Buddha in a Chapel has 3 costumes of each season and the only one who can change the costume is the King, FYI.
Great video, I love how you are upbeat! Btw...where are the links that you mentioned that you would 'put below'? I'm going to Thailand for 20 nights shortly, including 7 in Bangkok. I thought the links would help me, not that I haven't been doing my own research.
Thanks for the great video. I am going there with my brother since he is going back for more dental work there which is 1/5th what it is in the USA. Your video is a great help on the city while he is getting his teeth worked on. Thanks!
These are some really good things to know! I can sweat very easily in humid climates, so I probably would be doing the same thing by wiping my face with a towel. I also like how you included some tips toward the end about different customs such as not touching the top of someone's head although that is generally discouraged anywhere. Thank you for the great tips!
@@YellowProductions I'm here in Bangkok and so far your videos have been very helpful and accurate. Specially the one with the scams, just like you mentioned with taxis, I have to tell them to turn on the meter constantly. I did "fall" for one with a tuk tuk driver trying to negotiate a price over a semi long distance (siu 11 sukhumvit to golden palace) He offered an option to go to a port and take a boat instead, clearly beneficial for him. Same with the food they give you to feed animals. The difference is here everything its so cheap compared to other cities that it was sort of fun and and not as bad. Thanks again!
The only thing I learned about the taxis there is make sure they turn the meter on but the prices are phenomenal you can get a taxi all day long. I've done it. It was worth it
Great video. Can you (or someone else) advise me on what I should wear instead of jeans/denim capris (which I normally wear in hot weather). It's winter here in So CA and hard to locate summer clothing. Trying to figure out my options? Not used to humidity so it'll be an adventure.
You always made a nice video, and i will be honest to you, american person like you has been inspiring me, you teach me how to appciate other coutries, i must say thank you to american people, thank you american people, you has been inspiring me.😁🇺🇸
Chris, I watched all of your videos that I can find. Your presentations are consistently excellent. I have written a Guide to Chiang Mai that has been updated many times. But the last edition 2019, before the lockdown. So it is overdue for an update. I would love you to join with me for the next edition. How can we contact? I will immediately send you the current free version.
Thanks for the video, very helpful. I was in Phuket in 2019 and stood 4 months. I never had problems with mosquitos. Is this a Bangkok thing? Or does it depend on the month of the year? Phuket I was from December to April.
Hi When i went to Kuala Lumpur ive used Touch N go card (rapid pass) for Public Transportation. do they have something similar to use and whats the name of it ? Thank you
Very informative but actually the raining season start from late May/June through October, April will be very very dry and hot, it is the peak summer time
Quick tip. If you take a bus make sure you know your destination and have it written down in thai. The “conductor” will come by and charge you by distance on the bus. I got yelled but all apart of the experience. 😂
Thanks John. Enjoy Bangkok! Good question! Because I get that question so often, I created a frequently asked question video to answer it: ua-cam.com/video/Vf5GHG7QXaI/v-deo.html -- Check out question #1 and #2
And the food is absolutely incredible, unbelievably healthy for the most part. Make sure to tell them easy on the heat or you will melt your face. 😰 and I like spicy.
Excellent video, like all your videos. I congratulate you. Bangkok is a destination I've always wanted to go to, and now I'm getting more excited watching your video so I might finally decide to go :-) so thank you for all the information, and this video so interesting and at the same time fun ¡¡¡ :-) I have a good time watching your city videos. so thank you very much for making these videos that I imagine require a lot of dedication, editing, and a lot of hours, etc., so I really appreciate your time and dedication, and I'm sure a lot of youtubers, because they are videos to enjoy not just to get informacion, really, they are great¡¡¡ Thanks a lot again. best regards :-)
Good video as usual. Some additional points from my experience: 1. Sadly, there is no longer a "cool season" in Bangkok, as of the past 4-5 years...it's really showing the effects of global warming. I lived there from 2002-2008 (and I travel there every Dec. now), and yes, the weather used to "dip" into the low 20s in December....but no more. Or only VERY rarely. 2. Anyone who knows better only takes those motorcycle taxis when absolutely necessary...those drivers drive like maniacs, and many of them are drunk and/or high on methamphetamine while working. Trust me on this.
Global warming really? it's now climate change to be more specific man-made climate change. Used to be acid rain then the ozone layer before that it was the coming of the ice age again blah blah blah BS hahaha kidding 😀 stay safe 😀
1. Sadly there are still no animal rights in Thailand; (baby)elephants are still abused and broken for the tourism and entertainment industry. Its legal!! The weather dips? My hope dips!!!!!
Excellent video, I learnt so much about Bangkok. Great information on Thailand customs and do's and don'ts. I loved your description of how hot it was there. lol
omg !!! ha ha ha.... you look totally toasted Chris ! Thanks so much for the vid ! I got a little of that myself last week in Vegas... 112 degrees, and we were trying to walk on the strip :-)
Fashion Mall to the Bellagio at 3:00pm... we were walking dead by the time we got to our room.. shower and hit the sack.. didn't move until morning :-)
Dude, hilarious vlog!!! 🤣. So get this...I’m going on vaca to Thailand in May. Will be in Bangkok for about 3 days. Hottest time of the year there! Great choice lol. Let me ask you about the dress code for men at the Grand Palace & other temple’s. Should I wear a light dry fit type of pant, or is it okay to wear shorts?

I never thought about it that way
Scamming not included
Cheap holes too

I first moved to Bangkok in 2004 and now I'm in Phuket.
Definitely a fun, lively city. Plus a short trip to the paradise of the south of Thailand.
Try the philippines 🥰
Nice timing getting in pre pandemic

As someone who is in Bangkok right now on vacation this video is LEGIT! Great advice!
Thanks Seth!
We use Grab to get around it worked very well. Terminal 21 has one of the best food court I've ever seen.
hi is it safe?
@@jimsenhenri9263 yes
I like this Guy, the way he shows everything for us visitors to be prepared before we go visit a city. Thank You So Much.
Thanks Jennifer!
Perfect timing as I will be in Bangkok in four weeks
@In Love With Thailand I arrive in Bangkok on January 30 and leave on February 4 to go to Singapore

Makes sense!

Wow! Just about the very best video about introducing Bangkok!
Thanks Avanho!

Great timing! I’m

I have been coming to Bangkok for over 15 years and found you are giving great info on the city.. continue to give great info like this …
Thanks!
Kia ora from New Zealand....wow thank you for the tips love your energy I have been many times but you taught me a couple of things I didn't know!
14:55 TBH the ice is varied. The cube one normally fine but the crushed one are quite varied. Depends on how good they transport and produce it. But you're not gonna have choice to chose when you got the ice from street vendors.
Can you request no ice in your beverages?
You have to come here on April 13-15 bro. We have songkran festival you will love it
I hope to!
Great information about Bangkok Thailand. Thanks so much.

I lived in Minas and everything small came by mototaxi. Delivery for pizza was free. The Us is doomed to high cost of living.
Very useful info for the people who already visited Thailand too.

Say one needed a implant,what would that run?and are their dentist of the same quality as ones you would find in the states?

At 11:39 you mentionned "university markets". What's that?
This video is well made.
Thanks! :)

May i ask how u fund these travels?

I live in Bangkok and he is not lying my friends turn on the ac and put it on the coldest setting
And the food is absolutely incredible, unbelievably healthy for the most part. Make sure to tell them easy on the heat or you will melt your face. 😰 and I like spicy.
Definitely Scott!
I love Thai food but have heard it is way more spicier than what I get in the US. How do I communicate "easy on the heat" or "less spice" ?
Great Video
Thanks Rich!
“Don’t wear jeans and heels “

Thanks Santi! I appreciate the kind words!
omg.. come to my city , we have many motorcycle taxis here , haha ..
I want to visit soon! Any tips
*spontaneous combust 😅 so true.
Good video as usual. Some additional points from my experience:
1. Sadly, there is no longer a "cool season" in Bangkok, as of the past 4-5 years...it's really showing the effects of global warming. I lived there from 2002-2008 (and I travel there every Dec. now), and yes, the weather used to "dip" into the low 20s in December....but no more. Or only VERY rarely.
2. Anyone who knows better only takes those motorcycle taxis when absolutely necessary...those drivers drive like maniacs, and many of them are drunk and/or high on methamphetamine while working. Trust me on this.
Thanks for the extra tips Frank!
right man, avoid them moto taxis!
very true. I lived there from 2000-2005.
Global warming really? it's now climate change to be more specific man-made climate change. Used to be acid rain then the ozone layer before that it was the coming of the ice age again blah blah blah BS hahaha kidding 😀 stay safe 😀
1. Sadly there are still no animal rights in Thailand; (baby)elephants are still abused and broken for the tourism and entertainment industry. Its legal!! The weather dips? My hope dips!!!!!
This is so cool!
Excellent video, I learnt so much about Bangkok. Great information on Thailand customs and do's and don'ts. I loved your description of how hot it was there. lol
Thanks Colleen! It was soo hot! :)
omg !!! ha ha ha.... you look totally toasted Chris ! Thanks so much for the vid ! I got a little of that myself last week in Vegas... 112 degrees, and we were trying to walk on the strip :-)
I was soooo toasted! How far did you make it in 112F? :)
Fashion Mall to the Bellagio at 3:00pm... we were walking dead by the time we got to our room.. shower and hit the sack.. didn't move until morning :-)
Nice bro!
Motorcycle "taxis" also common in the Phillipines.
4:35 i noticed the actors behind you XD
The first time farang guide to Bkk hahaha..
Great video nonetheless
Dude, hilarious vlog!!! 🤣. So get this...I’m going on vaca to Thailand in May. Will be in Bangkok for about 3 days. Hottest time of the year there! Great choice lol. Let me ask you about the dress code for men at the Grand Palace & other temple’s. Should I wear a light dry fit type of pant, or is it okay to wear shorts?
You definitely need pants to go the main Royal palace temple.. I suggest the kind of pants that the legs zip off and they can become shorts
Have you gotten the Hep A and Typhoid shots for travel? Are these shots needed?
