  • We go on a mini-adventure around their own country, visiting the cities of Manchester, Newcastle & Glasgow in this travel documentary.
    I was invited by IHG (InterContinental Hotels Group) to go on 3 weekend adventures around Britain, showcasing the hidden gems that each city has to offer for Brit's looking to have a staycation.
    As well as exploring the three cities they also visit the neighbouring countryside of Hadrian's Wall and Loch Lomond.

    What a fun showcase of mini vacations in each City. You visited some fantastic bars The Botanical Society Newcastle was a destination in itself, what a gorgeous place. The street art in Glasgow was like something out of an art gallery so much detail and work has gone into that. You guys packed in heaps loved the idea of the train ride to the Indian Restaurant and the food looked excellant. Thanks for another great vid.👍

    Doing the north when the 'beast from the east' hit. I have always thought about the rest of Britain - do the Lake district, Scottish highlands, Edinburgh, Yorkshire moors on one big trip. Like you, I travelled the world - except my own country

    Relevant given the times. I would love to see more of your local stuff. Orkney to Guernsey - Aran Islands to Great Yarmouth. Someday I will do a walking tour of it all. The history is fascinating to me.

    Another excellent videao but I must admit I wont be rushing to go to Manchaster or Newcastle based upon what life you saw. They look dead as dodos ,but were you to repeat that in summer it might be different as the natives are usually very lively. Your video came alive with the Hadrian's Wall and the Glasgow bit.
    Not been to Glasgow for some 40 plus years, but the folks are usually lovely and looks more intersting with things to do and the country around the city.
    I would love to see you do a good travel adventure through our lovely country/
    Thanks for showing us the 'joys' of bleak northern cities.I really enjoyed the ride!
    Ps dont forget my home city ofLiverpool, much better than Manchester!

    well I was gonna travel round Vietnam, Hong Kong, Taiwan and central Asia this summer but after watching this I think I'm definitely gonna cancel it and spunk all my savings on a trip to the north of England in the middle of winter instead! Shame you didn't go to Bolton. I heard it's proper nice in February.

    Hi @KarlWatson, I’m so glad, I discovered ur channel thru ur Philippines 🇵🇭 backpacking adventure. Going to the movies were one of my hubbies in College. I felt like watching a real movie. Amazing editing and storytelling and everything. I’m a Mom of two Sons, 22 and 20 year olds. My Oldest can be like you since he’s Adventurous. I’m hoping he won’t go to Medical school 🏫.Anyway, thanks again, please show more of yourself. BTW, you and your Bros are Handsome and James also. I’m going to watch all your Vlogs. I’m just starting.

    Fun video. Pickle Rick &Pickle James! Bummer about the weather, but looks like you had a good time anyway. I don't suppose you and James would entertain us w/ a Harry Potter tour video of Britain someday? Bits of the quidditch were filmed @ Durham Cathedral & Alnwick Castle.

    Looked like a fun adventure, so many Star Wars along the trip, but it felt a tad too heavy on the pubs and bar experiences side. Still fun but was hoping to see a bit more of what experiences you will get to do in the city. Enjoyed watching it anyway 😀👍🏻
