im planning my trip thanks for showing the boat ride waits!!! looks amazing once youre on but i dont know if i can do an hour in that sort of stress 😅 you guys are having the greatest trip keep it up love the vlogs!

[@Ashleighandluke]

Love that you’re planning your trip and so glad our video has been insightful! 😊 FYI it was the weekend when we did the boat tours, don’t know if that made a difference to the queues 🤷‍♀️ Thank you for your support! 🥰 We hope you enjoy your trip!

[@livgd63]

@Ashleighandluke oh thank you for replying! good to know, we came back from japan recently and mt fuji was the same on the weekends, it can really change the whole experience when its busy!

[@Ashleighandluke]

Definitely does ! Oo lots of people we have met on our travels say good things about Japan so we’ve put it on the list 🌎 Overall, we preferred the Tam Coc river tour, it was a private boat, half the time and they row with their feet 😆 plus, way less stressful haha

[@hungcuongnguyen293]

Avoid going on week-ends , holidays and during school vacations and you don't have to wait that long . Maximum 10-15 minutes .

[@user-le9tf3tv5t]

Great to see you having bangers and mash, the happy water once again lol , there is no way I could do boat trip when you have all that stressfulness before hand, one day you will find, crisp crisp salt and vinegar lol, cant wait to the next great adventure,

[@Ashleighandluke]

Haha the banging bangers and mash was a slice of home away from home! 🏡 We did enjoy the boat trip…once we got on, but definitely worth avoiding weekends we think! Spoiler alert! We have since found salt and vinegar crisps 😂🥳 thanks for watching and supporting ❤️

[@clarion61]

Wow, I can't believe you took on another bike ride after last time, but at least you saw it through to the end this time. I bet your legs were aching the next day.

[@Ashleighandluke]

Haha I know 😆I think the weather made a big difference, last time it was way too hot!

[@hungcuongnguyen293]

FYI In Asia people are not allowed to park at a pagoda or temple gate . It's considered as disrespectful to Buddha or the worshipped deities . The fishy smell/taste in the pancake is from the dried shrimps inside . Tip for you to avoid crowds at popular touristy sites in VN : never ever go to those places on week-ends , holidays or during school vacations , because the Vietnamese people love to travel and they won't miss an opportunity to do .

[@Ashleighandluke]

Thanks so much for sharing that information with us and watching the video! 🥰 We love learning about the culture and we will remember this in future!.

Nó là bánh tráng nướng chứ không phải bánh xèo Vị tanh là do trứng cút trong bánh tráng khi nướng chứ không phải tôm

[@Ashleighandluke]

Oh that’s great to know! We really had no idea at the time, but we enjoyed it nonetheless 😁
