Saw a couple comments, that he seems tired. I don't think so however there aren't a huge amount of people there. It is beautiful, but there aren't. He is planning to be up north for several more days going to another place (with many more people) before eventually starting to head more south. Then there will be more than you can count. :)

[@pangjeffrey7808]

Still prefer the Thailand series as quite some elements were missing here.

As someone who would never be able to do a trip like this because of my physical disabilities, it is wonderful to live these adventures through you. Love your choice of peaceful music. Cheers, Paul.

Beautiful video. Happy to visit Vietnam. Beautiful country. My only earlier visit was during different times in 1966/67. Vietnam was beautiful then as well but politically was unsettled. Happy to see them prospering today.

My uncle was there around that time too. He served with the marines and survived luckily

I did 2 tours in Vietnam 1970-1973. The only thing that hasn't changed is the heat and the humidity. I am in Saigon now and this is my 4th visit since 2020

You see peace in that man’s face who’s rowing the boat. Very skillful, towing with his hands and feet. Much respect for those people who do that for a living. Your videos are wonderful and you are authentic.

[@kenRBoyle]

Do you ever shed tear of joy when you visit these magical places? So beautiful. Regarding people blasting music at these areas, I have no problem asking them to turn it off. If we don't educate them they will continue to ruin special places for the rest of us. Great series on Vietnam, can't wait to visit soon.

[@proud4373]

Absolutely yes! My tears of joy had kept rolling on my face when I first saw the spectacular bright golden rice terraces covering all of the gigantic mountains in Sapa; it was overwhelming. It's just unforgettable!

[@RobRodin]

Paddy just want to complement you on how far you’ve come since the beginning. Been watching since the first video and your drone footage you’re editing the music you use has just gotten better in every video. Your channel is starting to look like it could be on the discovery channel and be a number one hit. Keep it going.

Thank you so much❤️

I have to admit that Paddy is so professional filming with a very good and sophisticated aesthetic ; keeping viewers hooked on his every step, not wanting to miss a single shot. Especially his open - minded , liberal and respectful spirit with local culture , is a must have for a true world - class tourist. Thank you Paddy for a very enjoyable time that you shared while I enjoying the poetic landscape of Viet Nam. Best wishes to you and stay safe .

Vietnam is truly a gem of a country as far as the country side is concerned. I used too think Thailand was the ultimate in that regard but this has changed my mind

Back in 2009 we did a trip around South East Asia which included Thailand, Laos and Cambodia. I'm now majorly regretting not going to Vietnam too, this all looks so stunning!! Absolutely incredible, thanks so much for sharing it with us. I doubt I'll ever be able to go back and tick off Vietnam as well, so I'm really enjoying seeing it vicariously through you :)

[@melissafrye76]

So many cool places in Vietnam! The gent rowing the boat... 😊 I don't know why but I find Vietnamese people truly adorable. There is a man in my town who I get to interact with fairly often who I wish spoke English better because I would love to hear his story about how he came to the States. 😁 Good job taking some time 'off'! You are learning! 😆😁🥰 See you in the next one!

[@PaddyDoyle.]

[@damiann4734]

You can read "The Happiest Refugee" by Anh Do and you'll know and understand the stories, pain and happiness of many vietnamese boat people.

[@jasminejasmine2751]

When I was 9 (1978), my mom left her 4 children on a River boat along w/ 60 vietnamese to escape the brutal Communist regime. The oldest was 19, and the youngest was 9 yr old. She stayed back in VN, just in case, we didnt make it & we'd have a home to come back. I kept asking myself why would any mother would leave their children on that wooden boat out to the uncertainty danger ocean. 46 yrs later, after living in the US, I realized it was her selfless love. She sacrificed so we would live in freedom. After 1975, they raided our home & took all of our posessions, cars, & money & expensive furniture. Thank God my mother hid gold, so we'd have gold to buy tickets on that boat to escape.

[@blackthaiaffair1475]

Having watched all your videos from Thailand and now Vietnam...so far Vietnam is winning over Thailand! Cool vlogs Paddy Doyle :) Question for you, have you considered "bungy cording your backpack across the back to take pressure off your back, looks like it would work? :) Safe travels to you.... :)

[@cryptotrader2779]

Yeah, once again it's so darned beautiful. Must say I'd love to be sat on that boat right now chillin' down that river. Minus the bloody music that is ! I'm 100% with you on that one. Music in public places like parks drives me mental. But in that location I just can't for the life of me understand it. Anyway, superb once again Paddy. Thanks mate.

I love love LOVE Ninh Binh and will never tire of the drone footage of the dragon on top or the boats on the river. You didn't eat goat while you were there - they're known for great goat meat. You also missed the biggest temple complex in the world - Bai Dinh Pagoda.

Glad to see Ninh Binh hasn't gone down hill like Sapa. Was lucky enough to go there in 93 when the first Sars was happening and very few tourists. We had met a Welsh couple in Holong Bay ( which was great 👍) And went there together. Did the same boat ride (without the music). I can't recall seeing any other tourists apart from the four of us.
