THE REAL MALDIVES Malé & Hulhumalé 🇲🇻 The Ultimate Travel Guide
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 лис 2024
- See the real MALDIVES with us as we explore the Maldives capital island and city Malé and its sister island Hulhumalé.
We spend a day visiting the Must See sights of Malé and take the bus across to Hulhumale to see a quieter side of life.
This is the real Maldives and not the picture postcard image you expect from the travel brochures of the Maldives.
As always we are travelling on a budget so we show you the best value way to see the capital of the Maldives. This is the ultimate travel guide to Male and Hulhumale.
Come explore the Maldives with the Frugal Travellers!

Love the authenticity of your videos!
@@asbpo73 That's so wonderful to hear! Thank you so much for your lovely comment 🙏🤗♥️
Best travel blog ever
@@lifeisgoodjg Oh, that's so lovely, Jill! Thank you so much 🙏🤗♥️
So happy you finally made it Lee to the Maldives. Looks like you guys lots and lots of surprises. Those parks and swings are fabulous! Keep putting your videos out there! Your followers (and fans 😍) really appreciate all the information you give! Sorry you got soaking wet in the rain.
Thanks Caryn. 🙏. It was so interesting to experience Malé. Different to what you would expect of the Maldives but fascinating to see. The people were friendly and helpful. The rain caught us out there and we won't forget that downpour in a hurry. It was intense! 😍
Great Video - Brilliant Tour Around - Your Videos Helps Other People To See different Places in The World - Thanks Mandy and Lee ❤❤
@@Karenemm1 Thank you so much, Karen, for your wonderful support and lovely comment 🤗♥️🙏
@@FrugalTravellers Thank You - Mandy and Lee ❤❤
Great video 😊
@@elizaC3024 We're so pleased you enjoyed this video 🙏♥️
This is so interesting! I’ve never seen a video that shows the Maldives as a “real” place. Just videos showing the fantasy with over water villas, white sand beaches and honeymooning couples with perfect bodies enjoying a perfect vacation.
@@carolinacadabra8278 You know us, Carolina... reality not glamour all the way 😁🤗 We were so interested in seeing what the real Maldives was like, and were pleasantly surprised at how reasonable the prices were, and at how much there was to see in the busy city island of Male and its neighbouring island, Hulhumale. It's wonderful to hear that you also enjoyed seeing this 🙏♥️
Yeah I was the same, this was really interesting!
@@michellel3348 That's so lovely, Michelle, and it's exactly what we were aiming for! It's wonderful to hear that you enjoyed it xx
Lovely seeing you two in paradise ❤
@@knightofceylon-ms1us That's so lovely, thank you 🙏🤗❤️
How is Lee feeling, is he over the stomach pain. You look amazing Mandy. ❤
It's up and down but thankfully up at the moment. 🙏🙏. We've even been able to edit videos this week so the India series can start soon. 😍🙏😍
Dear's so cool and nice video. Much more interesting Island instead an isolated malediven Island holiday on a expensive Spot. Thanks a lot and keep well. Greetx from kai
@@Kai-NikolausSchmitt Hello Kai 👋 It's always so lovely to hear from you. Apologies for the delay in replying... Lee's been in hospital for a week so things have been in a state of upheaval. He's getting great care and will hopefully be out soon, with his stomach issues treated 🙏🤗
Beautiful 😍. I really hope to visit the Maldives on a budget one day 😊
@@traveleverywherewithme We had an amazing time. We hope you enjoy our tropical island videos, the first one will be this week 🏝️⛴️🐟
Excellent video! Fairly accurate! I would like to suggest tuna curry which is a speciality! Good luck with the holiday.
Thanks so much 🙏 We did sample many a delicious tuna curry in the Maldives which we do show in other videos. ❤️😋👍
I’m very jealous Lee! Would LOVE to find that beach swing on Hulhumalé island and chill for an entire day. 🏝️ 👍🏻
I’m fairly certain the bridge to the island was not completed during our trip to the Maldives but always willing to return. 😊
Thanks for showing Male and surroundings which most tourists to the Maldives (including myself) do not see.
Looking forward to your other videos on the Maldives. 🇲🇻
Much health and safe travels. ❤
@@lucchese20 Hello Maurice. Thank you so much for your wonderful comment, and for your very generous Buy Me A Coffee gift... you are so very kind 🙏🤗
It's so interesting to hear from you of the changes to the Maldives... apparently construction work is booming on both Male and Hulhumale, and new buildings are going up all the time!
Lee's still in hospital... he was admitted last Wednesday, and they're still running tests. Travellers' diarrhoea has been completely ruled out... it's something inflammative, not infectious. I'll be posting updates as soon as we know for sure.
Sending big hugs from us to you, and all the very best wishes for health and happiness. We've got this... everything will be awesome 🤗😍❤️
Amazing video, lovely 😍
@@explorermaldives We're so pleased you enjoyed this video! It means a lot to us, receiving such great feedback from your channel 🙏🤗
Oh the rain! Just like Lancashire 😂🇬🇧🙏❤
Take care and stay safe x
@@steves7013 It belted it down... made for a good cardio workout running to the ferry station 🤣🏝️⛈️🏃🏃♀️
Nice ❤️ From 🇱🇰
@@eshikaudayanawanigasekara Thank you! We're so pleased you enjoyed this video 🙏🤗
Great to see a video showing the real Maldives, it was always on my bucket list but always thought it’s to expensive, maybe you proof me wrong lol. What month were you travelling to the Maldives?
@@ArtHealsTheSoul We were pleasantly surprised at how affordable it was to travel independently in the Maldives. We were there in May, supposedly the monsoon season but we still had some lovely days. Keep watching for more Maldives on a Budget videos 🌞🏝️:

Thanks 🙏👍
Where are you guys staying at and what does it cost?
@@kish_myworld Hi there. We talk about our Male accommodation in the video in the link below... and will be showing the first of 2 island videos this Saturday.

Hi
How is Lee doing now?
If you don't spend all of your daily budget what happens to it?
Does Lee still record everything on his little notebook?
When it's birthday or Christmas time do you ask for practical travel items or luxuries?
Thanks Julie E xx
Hi Julie 👋
I'm writing from hospital, waiting for test results hoping to cure my long standing problem. 🙏🙏
I now record everything on a Google spreadsheet online. Too many books to carry! 😆. The budget is an average. Sometimes it's less, sometimes more depending on where we are and what we're doing. Birthdays are obviously special. 🎉
I'll certainly be celebrating when I get this health issue fixed. 🙏👍
@@savingfortravel698 Hi Julie. First of all, thank you so much for your kind gifts on Buy Me A Coffee... we appreciate your kindness and support more than words can say!
Secondly... the daily budget is what I'm prepared to pay... Lee has a personal mission to spend less, and it resets every day 🤣
We don't tend to buy each other birthday or Christmas presents anymore, instead we'll give each other money to buy a big item, like a powerbank or to go towards a new laptop etc. As we don't have a permanent base, (or can be thought to have 3 permanent bases 😂) we've become a lot more restrained when it comes to buying things.
Once again Julie, thank you so very much. Your brilliant comments, love of frugal travel and generous gifts all mean so much to us xx🙏🤗❤️ ~ Mandy
hi i am in hulumale city ❤where you are guys
Hello. This was made 3 months ago. We've left Maldives now. We'd love to return though. 🙏❤️
@@FrugalTravellers okk. 👍
@@mohanrockzz Do you live there or are you visiting?
Maldives is so expensive to fly to. Do you have a trick for low cost travel there?
@@philip5899 That's a great question. We flew from Perth, Australia to Male via KL, and then flew to Kochi, India with IndiGo. We checked prices first on Skyscanner and booked 2 months in advance. It helped that we were flying in the low season as was it was monsoon time, and the different days of the week can be more or less expensive as well.
❤💚🤍💐💐
@@رحلاتوسفرطلال Thank you for the love 🙏🤗♥️
