Another great video, as always. I can’t wait to visit Laos!! We just signed up for Paysend through your link, but the promo code didn’t work. Could it be an issue with our home country? We’re in Mexico.

[@beelouwill303]

With Paddy we can truly see the place and imagine how it really is, both the good and the bad. I have been wondering and hoping that you would visit the neighboring countries around Thailand, & Must say this is definitely worth the wait. As far as watching many utubers nobody does the inside review better than you in my eyes, in particular when talking about the S.E.A hidden corner. This might be down to the fact that I don’t get the rush feeling liked from some of the other clips which seems as if they didn’t have enough time to take the info all in or the video is overloaded with too much information in a short period. For us viewers this can really spoiled the actual sighting potential especially should the place were meant to be in our next destination of plan or not. Great work Paddy and may be you can ride as many Laos’ provinces on your Honda’s dream. 🎉❤& Respect &🎉Thank you.

[@orjan2814]

paddy, try to rest please do not ride that long road your left arm???

[@antoninocafarella686]

Well I needed this video to remind me of the time spent in beautiful Laos. Great work Paddy mate, keep it up. Are you going to Luan prabang?

[@nanasong959]

What a great video! I hope to see you do treetop explorer in Laos too.

[@stephenworthington-white8294]

I know Thailand is the land of smiles but in my own experience I found the people of Laos and Cambodia to be even friendlier than the amazing Thai people. Really miss that whole beautiful area of the world. Happy Travels

[@ogloc636]

for sure in Laos... out of I think all of south east Asia, it was the people of Laos that really tickled me. Even if the language barrier in Laos was really difficult! Really miss Beer Lao!!!!

[@martin3399]

I don't know... I find Thais friendlier than Khmer

[@ogloc636]

@@martin3399 agreed

[@olumideolowe8271]

The drone videos and the landscape!!! Just wow 🤩

[@therock8224]

Laotians and Khmers are great but Thais are generally friendlier than Laotians overall, if you take into account the fact that tribal people in Laos are generally very shy and often suspicious of outsiders whereas in Thailand, both urban and rural folk alike are friendly. That being said, as a Lao and Thai speaker, I find most Lao people to be great but some of the folks up north are a bit weird.

[@MrVinceI.0081]

Laos is listed in both National Geographic and Wanderlust for 2023 travel destinations. If the Laotian government can improve the roads then I think Laos will attract even more tourists. Thanks Paddy for sharing your videos.

[@Pppppppxx]

Under the plan and hope that it will be complete in shortest period of time. The road is call northern road number 13.

[@hfc6535]

Rural Laos is beautiful. And the people are so friendly. I only had 3 days there but I'll go back again

[@Alchemy_Art_Designs]

Thanks for sharing this beautiful part of The world … Very inspirational . Love your enthusiasm for travel off the beaten track ❤❤ Been following you a few years now. You have inspired me big time.. as a solo female in her late 50s in the UK.. I am determined to experience a taste of what you have shared. I’m so inspired to set up an online art business and travel..house/pet sit around the world… THIS is my dream to start in the next couple years. YOU have been part of inspiring me to face my fears and travel solo ❤❤

[@DGM-TW]

The natural scenery of Laos is MINDBLOWING, beautiful blue skies and every very green, NO air pollution at all. I would love to visit there

[@globaltravelmate]

Great episodes mate. Can't wait to see the rest of the country 🙂

[@nphommachanh]

Thanks Paddy for putting Laos on the world map for travel destination.

[@ashishgusani]

Jesus.. had almost forgotten how beautiful rural Laos.. spectacular drone shots.. Beautiful with the monks in the boat too ❤️ and that second hotel.. wowzer

Absolutely 🤗

Did Padraig say that all the monks came on the crack of dawn?

Been watching silently but just wanted to express how impressed I am with what you’re able to do with this format. Happy that you seem to have found your calling man 👏

[@ingopaul67]

Me and mate visited Laos back in 2011 and 2012. Rode rented Honda XR250s. First trip was up north, second down south. Most amazing country with magnificent scenery and countryside. Truly unforgettable.

[@worldnomaderic]

This has been one of my favorite videos from your channel. Bravo Paddy! Incredible scenery. BTW, my wife and I just arrived in Chiang Mai for 6 weeks, partially because of your videos reminding us how much we missed Thailand. We came for the first time nearly 20 years ago and we were due to return. Cheers!

[@BodyBliss_by_Nadine]

Super excited to see and learn more about Laos. Until now it looks soooo beautiful ❤thanks for taking us with you

[@ThailandThomas]

Laos is so beautiful. Your drone shots are just epic Paddy. I a surprised a studio has not tried to hire you yet. Give me two beers and river here i come. Loved the back road to the lake. Nice place to build a home on that little island mate! Great video mate!

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@laoolaos]

You are such a brave guy who traveling to the strange land alone without knowing any Lao language at all.. Bon Voyage!!

[@shocks123]

okay so the road was poor but your route was much more interesting and memorable. Thanks for taking one for the team! Amazing pictures a stunning country

[@travelertrome8449]

Laos has such stunning nature! That lake looks beautiful! Not as stunning as Khao Sok, but still nice to kayak. I drank lots of Beerlao when I was there. Would love to see one of those in your hand during this series!! 🍺

[@sharonali8727]

Your videos are so inspiring. It’s my equivalent to Netflix series out here while I am traveling. It’s also very comforting I may never go to Laos because right now I have no desire but just watching these videos I feel like I am traveling with you and it’s enough for me right now thank you

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Thanks 🙏

[@RyanLeeBanks]

Really nice and calm vlog mate, really looking forward to future Laos adventures!

[@colette-tj2gk]

Wow, it's just absolutely stunning! BBQ and a beer by that river looks like the ideal weekend, those locals have it sorted!

[@gizemandako]

Laos is definitely in my bucket list now, thanks to you Paddy ☺️ I am already looking for flights from Japan 🙈 if you ever visit Japan please let us know. We will be more than happy to meet you! 🙏🏼

[@ghadaaboelenin9552]

Paddy, I've never taken the time to comment on YT like this, but I just wanted to share this. I've stumbled upon your channel through your Thailand Itinerary videos (as I'm planning our trip there) and then I watched your series with Zelda and then I found out you did all provinces with Dreamy.. and can I just say I'm hooked!! Your channel is so so good. Your series are so interesting, your information and tips so valuable and your videos are so rich in content, and you are truly so authentic. I kept thinking that while binging your content, so I thought it best to share. Thank you so much for what you do! I will be watching all the Thailand provinces videos and I will obviously follow along in Laos. Can't wait to see all of it. Good luck on your travels. Be safe!

[@kookaisingh7750]

Hello Paddy! I’m glad KZbin algorithm suggested your channel! Love every Laos videos you uploaded, but this video has to be my fav!! Thanks for sharing your journey! I’ve always wanted to go to the first location (with floating bungalows). After seeing this video, it makes me wanna go even more :) Can’t wait to see Vangvieng and Luang Prabang Great work 🎉🎉

[@MrMoscs]

So scenic view of those rivers and mountains.

[@EddieAppell]

I'm so impressed by the scenery in Laos! Of course your excellent drone skills help with that, but it reminds me a little of Northern Vietnam. with more water. Stunning, and so reasonably priced. Definitely going on my list for a trip soon...

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Thanks a lot!

[@vwbora26]

Paddy understand that being a good narrator and carefully choosing the music makes for 80% of the vlog experience

[@somchaypsp]

So beautiful nature I love it !

[@Rythx]

Thank you very much Paddy Doyle that you introduce my beloved country " LAOS" to the world !

[@bcmiles80]

Love it! You show the real deal! Culture, landscape, and accommodations. Bro, keep it up!

[@sjonkelrolfsen]

Back at it! The best episode since northern Vietnam 🥳

[@34547]

Laos is absolutely stunning. I was there in 2010 and the only place that has come near in beauty is Myanmar. I hope the bullettrain and highway money that’s gone into it hasn’t had negative impacts…

[@beelouwill303]

Yes Myanmar is even more beautiful than Laos and they have plenty of amazing beaches too. Unfortunately, Myanmar will likely remain largely inaccessible for some time to come whereas Laos is mostly open now with minimal entry restrictions

[@Pppppppxx]

I am Lao , thanks for your vlog, reviewing about the travel in Laos. Really Appreciate, hope you had a a great time.

[@PaulTCoffee]

Wow absolutely beautiful ....Those roads and the country side of Laos is truly beautiful. Nothing like getting lost and just meeting locals and going off the beaten track ...I'm loving this series so far....Looking forward to more and more.

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Couldn't agree more!

[@67Svenski]

Amazing video quality and the stereo sound is the icing. Paddy, I think you are setting some high standards here in your travel video logs. I love each one. Thank you so much.

[@PracticerOfMetta]

Paddy, I’m living through you since I’m too old now to travel and wasted most of my life working hard. If you want peace and happiness stay single and travel the world. As a sidenote, I believe you can download Google translator to your phone so it doesn’t have to rely Upon a network connection.

[@JumpingWatermelons]

@16:15 LOL Paddy no, .... don't set the AC temperature to 20. It can cause the refrigerant to freeze and then the AC system doesn't work right, or can be damaged. 28 is a reasonable setpoint for an air conditioner !!

[@newgabe09]

I'm 'liking' your videos before I even see them now. That's how much I like your videos :) And this one is just beautiful. Love the pace of it, and your calm enjoyment.

[@carolrampling862]

Laos is truly a magical place Paddy, your filming skills are doing it justice 😊. That accommodation on the lake.. just 👌. Once you get past the dusty roads and lean into the rural lifestyle you can't beat it for the most stunning scenery.

[@melissafrye76]

Those mountains.... 😍😍 More beautiful countryside! Love it!

The best!

U are seriously the best at what u do. What an adventure getting lost and such a cool dude!!! Stay safe and happy travels

[@GlawinsOctaneTune]

So Paddy, I have to tell you. You and the other guy that I watch with your VLOGS of Thailand (and now Laos) both have a similar theme that I appreciate very much. You both clearly love the countries and show such respect to the people. Your dedication to discovering and adventuring into the not so typical places to visit and then showcasing how amazingly beautiful the region is. Thank you so much. Every day, I dream of my permanent return to Thailand.

[@MsSjaakvaak]

What's the other guys name? Watching Paddy's vlogs brings back so many nice memories of one of my favourite countries. Stunning nature and such kind and humble people

[@GlawinsOctaneTune]

@@MsSjaakvaak I'm not sure if it is appropriate to say his name... but he's Russian, and he has Hungry Adventures. I'll say that I very much enjoy watching both of them (I also envy them so much).

[@lindabuck2777]

Happy exploration time, and Zelda is PERFECT for these roads! That morning shot with the fog and mountain was breathtaking. Don’t think I’d handle the loudass music very well-perhaps if it was pleasant…lol the river looked refreshing. Noted:you’re awoken early there, have a donation for the monks. Looking good Paddy-progress is happening-run or walks working. Happy trails, stay safer!🙏🏻❤️

[@MiniMeshell]

Omg. Laos is stunning. Happy you had a quiet morning to wake up to!

One of your best videos! All are great but this one stands above many of the others.

[@skyeblueii6355]

Lovely video, Paddy. So beautiful to watch. You are so resourceful in the way you deal with those very challenging moments and situations. This is going to be a great series. Keep going! :)

[@kashyapkhakharia5826]

This is one of your best videos in recent times Paddy, stay safe and enjoy nature, love from India.

[@LaoSoftware]

Believe it or not, Laos has a small Indian community in Vientiane and Luang Prabang. Some of these South Asian vendors make really good roti.

[@kashyapkhakharia5826]

@@LaoSoftware I believe it because when I wanted to go there i researched for Indian restaurants in Vientiane and there are tons may be more than Chiang Mai or entire Issan (Issan have only 2 tho so cannot compare).

[@Stokielad_Ed]

Utterly stunning views, a side trip here has moved right to the top of the list when I'm back in Thailand, the colours were immense. However, the guy on a bike with his "palm tree" on the ferry is the funniest thing I have seen in 2022, worthy of a thumbnail surely? 😁

[@roygoad2870]

I was in Lao about 12 years ago, this vlog reminds me of the beautiful countryside but also the very bad roads back then, been seeing quite a few You Tubbers traveling to Lao now, great it’s starting to get the attention the country deserves! 😊. Looking forward to going to Lao in a few weeks time and thankfully I’ll be travelling with my Thai girlfriend, she says the language is very similar to Thai!

[@therock8224]

It is. Lao and Isarn Lao are 99% the same. Thai and Lao share 70% vocabulary with the remaining 30% ranging from similar to different but both languages are mutually intelligible meaning a Lao speaker speaking in Lao and a Thai speaker speaking Thai can generally understand each other alright.

[@msvandep5320]

Went for a month in 2012. Great to see it again! Keep on truckin’- (beautiful channel sir.. sincere, no foodporn overdose, culture and vibes love it from the Netherlands )

[@TheThaiLife]

The loud music is the one thing even in Thailand that makes me feel like I'm in a developing country. Blasting music as a level that will 100% for sure make them deaf and everyone around them annoyed is the most local, macho and ignorant thing I experience here. They had a concert here in Khon Kaen that went until 3am shaking my windows. Monday night.

[@cinderella1295]

Aww, 😍you are finally in Laos, and you find the most beautiful places - but the first one was only in the morning gorgeous, beautiful scenery with the monks and of course with the magical mist and your drone flight. It is stunning, the second room by the lake is classy but so inexpensive. Wow the lakeview is insane ! Thank you Paddy D. i wait for more adventures in Laos👍

[@fluffyclouds2729]

Hey Paddy, Wow, Laos is so beautiful, happy you got there lost Lol, you have more encounters with people and thats adventure ! Great drone flight, wow ! Chears with a Lao beer, its tasty, as i can remember. Safe travel with Zelda ! ✌❣

[@N18DTK]

Wow looks absolutely stunning, I never thought Laos was anything like this 😍

[@LaoSoftware]

Laos has a small, but growing expats community from all over the world. Luang Prabang and Vang Vieng are paradise small towns for expats. They got mountains, rivers, and cooler weather. China is next door. Many of these people do business with China.

[@CoulterTravel]

You echoed my thoughts of Laos here, when ever I went off the beaten track like this, they looked so freaked out to see me, and also so happy with their lives. Didn’t have Google maps when I done it though! Had to read a hand drawn map by the man who hired us our vehicle. Ended up in some strange places, one of them an illegal logging track, and one the entrance to that ‘secret’ CIA base! (You need to go there!/Find it) but it was the best experience ever.. you’re also bringing up the age old pronunciation argument Laos with an a S or just Laos that rhymes with ow 🤷‍♂️

Hiya Paddy, hectic roads, how were your arse cheeks. LOL, Made up for it with the fantastic views. Definitely. Epic drone footage. Great sponsor and deal for first-time users. They weren't potholes. Craters. Bloody hell. Lol. The mountains are spectacular. Cool, you have the drone to find your destination. When you jumped in, haha, brilliant. 21.00. Wow. Gave me goosebumps. Perfect music. Beautiful start to your morning. Beautiful road trip. Gorgeous place to stay. So cheap it is insane. You do find beautiful places. That was very graceful getting in the kayak. Made for two gives you a good workout. Loved this. Epic video. Perfect ending. Loved it was longer. Excited for more. Have a wonderful week.

Ah thanks Nicky, so happy you enjoyed the episode ✌️

[@ChrisSlack]

Great job! You’re a great drone pilot and photographer too.

[@MightyOff1ine]

Paddy, you are traveling too fast. Mueang Fueang has so much more to offer. You can go tubing in the Nam Lik river, you can rent a jetski, you can hike to a view point, there are two fresh markets around the place you stayed, there is a bamboo rice field path and behind the water dam is a fisherman village build on boats. That is all I experienced there 3 years ago and I can tell you, the house where I stayed was the first holiday house close to the river. There was not an single floating bungalow or any other resort in this are before Covid. That sooooo crazy how fast Mueang Fueang changed!! I can check the video I uploaded back in these days.

[@davesivirn2283]

Great video! I rode the back roads of Laos on two occasions. Really stunning and adventurous. I think that lake is part of the hydro system, and the electricity it produces is the largest single export from Laos. I think it would come in second if they started to globally export beer Lao. 😀

Beer Lao is exported globally. However, it's easiest to find in Thailand, Cambodia, China, Vietnam and the USA.

Where did you get a chair in the middle of nowhere to enjoy the paddie field? That to me was the most random uplift spirit in this clip 😄😄❤️

Awesome as usual! We had to change our underwear when you jumped in the river and the shark head appeared. Good job scaring the crap out of us. We laughed for awhile after that!!!
