The ULTIMATE Camper Van Tour of KANSAS! Epic State Guide + Incredible Local Food! | RV Life USA

[@dcal1452]

This is the best Kansas tourism commercial I've ever seen lol. They should pay you for this.

[@clc18mac]

As someone who was born and still living in Kansas…Thank you for making our state look so good. We’ve been trying to keep it a secret 🤫. You were so close to the Coronado Heights Castle. This is the furthest North that Coronado journeyed for the fabled Seven Cities of Gold. It’s just a little bit outside of Lindsborg. So much to do and see in Kansas that people just don’t realize. If you’re bored then you’re not looking very hard for something cool to do.

[@andreahaley8533]

I am a lifelong Kansan and I love this state. It's not traditionally beautiful, but it has its own unique beauty. Thank you for visiting and highlighting our state!

[@jolineantheajammer]

Nice how the camper van in the opening cartoon reflects the rental. Nice touch and attention to detail. I hope Clementine will be fixed soon, however I bet you are enjoying the AC.

[@graceprince4180]

As someone who lived in Kansas, thank you for showing the beauty of the state.

[@tannern2280]

Wichita is at the top of the list of places not to go even after this video. A trip through Kansas and no Joe's Bar-B-Que??? I'm crying now.

[@doreenduncan3411]

Kansas tourism should be using your video in their state information guide. I mean seriously I drove through Kansas about 10 years ago and all I remember were miles and miles of fields and wind turbines. I'm definitely going back and taking my time and will be using your video as a guide.

[@lifeviz28568]

I live in Wichita and I'm so glad you're the first RV-based KZbin couple to visit Wichita! Thanks for giving my city a quick stop by! :)

[@TsunamiKitten56]

The more videos I watch and the more bills I pay each month are REALLY pushing me towards van life(or RV life!). Everything I see gives me ideas for a van build out!!!

[@Zenlife1132]

Girl same!!

[@tomhalf3018]

Before you start a vanlife my biggest tip is practice if you are comfortable using a composting toilet or relying on public restrooms Sleeping in areas that sometimes have high traffic even at midnight because it can be loud And most importantly how much you are willing to pay for modern comforts I love living in my 16ft caravan, while it is small i have a double shower/toilet tent for outside and a portable gas hot water system, a 450amp battery system (agm so 225 usable amps) and 600w of solar to run my ps5,tv, residential 231liter(60gallons) fridge/freezer and pedestal fan, this is my tiny home as i build my second house and didn't want to rent in this disgusting market

[@Spudeaux]

So, I definitely used the "get out of Dodge" line when I worked at Chrysler dealership in high school. Also, Wichita is home to Cessna & Beechcraft, so you can says it's home some some... great planes! Lastly, you guys seem to be the last travel channel I follow that hasn't gone vegan, so your videos actually make me hungry when you show your food! 😂😂

[@ewilson22683]

Welcome to my hometown (Wichita) and state. I love how you hit some more off the beaten path spots. Next time you’re in town, check out the Nifty Nuthouse; a unique and historic candy shop. And I’d love to make you some Kansas backyard bbq! Love your videos and how you portrayed our state.

[@Mandapanda.]

Wichita native here too!

[@cjcj6945]

This was an absolute gem of a video! I've never wanted to actually visit Kansas, until now! You two darlin's have really come into your own, making some of the best travel vlogs available! Allison, you looked so adorable in your sundress and floppy sun hat out in the sunflower fields!🌻🌻🌻

[@susanhenderson3369]

This is your first video I've seen. Kansas is my adopted home state since I moved here when I was 9 so my father could work in aviation. Wichita is the Air Capital of the world. Your videos are very professionally done and you both are charming. You have highlighted many of the parts of the state I have seen but you evidently didn't try to eat any bison & missed out! Something I enjoyed seeing was the original Laura Ingalls tiny cabin near Independence, KS when they settled here in "Indian Territory". I was a big fan of the "Little House" books. I was startled to see your skyline of Wichita with the Exploration Place architecture in it. It looked amazing. I am still finding new & unexpected places to visit here. The Flint Hills and Manhattan, KS are very beautiful as are the hilly forested areas in SE KS. I saw my first ever mountain lion at Tuttle Creek Reservoir near Manhattan last year. I may have to check out the Little Jerusalem badlands some time. Yes, the "Arkansaw River" becomes the "Arkansas" River pronunciation-wise in Kansas. I still can't get used to that and a few other Kansas-isms here.

[@sheilaputman-mimitreasures4126]

Close to Manhattan is the Pillsbury Crossing that’s a good place to see too.

[@susanhenderson3369]

@@sheilaputman-mimitreasures4126 I'll have to check that out next time I'm up that way.

[@jt.s.7418]

You guys nailed the Kansas promotional intro 👏.

[@EvanandLemon]

Long time watchers- first time commenters here! We've loved following along with y'all the last 3 years and just wanted to say thank you for the videos! We look forward to them every week and you two have even inspired us to follow our dreams of full time travel. Thank you for always making us laugh and inspiring us to travel- Cheers!

[@LisaEicholtz]

I haven't been here from the very beginning but have joined the last 2 years did they change RVs or did I miss something?

[@EvanandLemon]

Clementine is in the shop so they rented the one in this video

[@theo.r.bitter]

👏 Bravo! That was one of the best vlogs I've seen from you over the last 2+ years. Content, canvas, flow, and editing were highly enjoyable. Thanks for taking us along.

[@micahforni5453]

I grew up in Wichita and love bierocks, our family makes them. The river is pronounced Ar - Kansas River. :)

[@kvbstudios316]

Yep! The state Arkansas is named from the French pronunciation of the local natives. The river and the stat of Kansas are named from the native pronunciation. So it is, indeed, the Ar-Kansas River.

[@marysmith5015]

Born and raised in Kansas and currently living in Wichita! So lovely to see you two enjoyed the state! Excited to see where you go next!!

[@shelleywalker6225]

This is one of the best videos that I've watched in a long time. You did an awesome job of showing interesting things that Kansas has to offer. Continue using the same magic as you take us along on your journey across this country. I hope Clementine and Ruby will be back with you soon. Safe travels.

[@Char9508]

A native Kansan saying hello. You probably went by my town at some point between Wichita and Kansas City. :)

[@johnholmquist7630]

Wow, great video! I started following because of your DR videos. I actually grew up in Lindsborg and my parents still live there - so I appreciate you highlighting my hometown and home state! Many do not realize it's actually a great state and hidden gem.

[@MrBudgerboo]

Thanks for stopping by my home state of Kansas . Glad you enjoyed it.

[@FNDingMyWay]

The amount of effort and planning you guys put into your opening sequence is so incredible!

[@unibal]

Super excited to see you give my homestate an actual experience. You went to my hometown of Wichita I've been to that museum, it was a lovely small museum. I haven't lived in KS for just shy of 10 years, but part of me misses home.

[@diablofubar3623]

Welcome to Kansas the place we call Home...

[@thomasnew2113]

It’s great to see you two traveling and eating real food. Every other traveling couples on KZbin are either just doing challenges and turned vegan. Keep it up guys.

[@ahhitskatie9094]

Totally agree!!

[@JulieBeyerRDN]

100% agree with this! Love Endless Adventure!

Veganism is a mental illness

[@lizame65]

Are you talking about Kara and Nate

[@candlecellar]

Come back to Lindsborg! You missed so many things! Hit me up next time and I’ll be your personal tour guide in LBK.

[@michaelmacdermott6340]

One of the other main things that Kansas is famous for besides Dodge City and the stockyards of Wichita (which has a museum also) is aviation. Most of your major aircraft companies got their start in Wichita Kansas, and of course there's an Air Force Base there as well. It was because of the flat ground that they're able to do a lot of testing in Kansas throughout the history of flight. Having said that in Wichita you missed going to the "Kansas Aviation Museum".

[@judyferguson3185]

I was born 71 years ago in Wichita, my parents were working at Boeing to earn some family startup cash. I’ve come almost full circle, Leavenworth has been my home now for 28 years. This channel has made me want to explore Kansas a lot more.

[@Kaeferpaul]

New subsciber here. I found you on a Travel Beans episode. I have a idea for an upcoming episode for you. I know that Illinois deservedly gets a bad rap but the Southern tip of the state is quite beautiful and you could do a whole episisode on the Shawnee National Forest alone. Look up Pine Hills, Pomona Natural Bridge, Alto Pass (lots of wineries), Giant City State Park, Garden of the Gods, Cave In Rock, Shawneetown, etc. I grew up in Anna and we're close enough to Poplar Bluff that we shared a TV station (KFVS-12). My parents, sisters, and nieces still live down there but I won't visit until fall since I hate hot weather. I'd rather spend my summers here in Wisconsin. I also have plenty of WI tips for you, especially in the Driftless Region.

[@exek337]

Fun! Enjoyed seeing Kansas sights and your restaurant/food selection

[@randy1203]

This is yet again an other fine example of why we should travel and explore the sights of USA !!! 🇺🇸 This is awesome, I enjoyed the sun flower fields. The day is not complete without a BBQ meal... Thanks for sharing 👍 Be safe and healthy. Enjoy... Toledo.

[@peggyparsons5003]

Finally a travel vlog of your 50 state tour with information I can use. Thanks. Hope Clementine is up for the task ahead.

[@jessejames9576]

Love Kansas. Lived in independence, KS from 1979-1983. If you’re ever there at Halloween, check out Independence’s festival called Neewallah. Great memories. Wish I was there.

[@chrismccray361]

You did a nice video of Kansas. Of course Kansas City has more BBQ places per capita than anywhere in the US. Thumbs 👍

[@BagsPackedFamily]

I can't believe you guys were able to make Kanas look awesome!! 😆

[@passingthroughtime3033]

Great Job guys. Very entertaining and educational. Loved it! ♥️♥️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@alisha5307]

Thanks for showing how cool and fun Kansas is! I lived 45 minutes from Dodge City in my younger years and there is SO much to see and do in Kansas!! AND the sunsets there are just gorgeous! Definitely a hidden gem. Loving the RV series 🙂.

[@shamammap8054]

Only you two could actually make me want to take my RV Nora to Kansas 😎 Travel safe.

[@Theendlessadventure]

Haha! If you go, definitely take i-70 through the north and stop at every little town along the way! It's beautiful up in the Flint Hills 😍

[@Mandapanda.]

Kansas isn’t so bad! I’ve lived here all my life and it’s lovely!

[@sheilaputman-mimitreasures4126]

If you enjoy the flint hills the best route is 335 and then 35 south from Topeka to Wichita. It’s a lovely drive.

[@KokoPidrillaYo]

Allison totally won that food choice competition in Swedish town.

[@dfdorsey85]

Between Joe's and Q39, you really can't go wrong. Burnt Ends are amazing.

We need more tall grass! It’s a powerful CO2 sink and it helps maintain our soil. I’m so glad to see that at least some is protected!

You guys travel around with such joy which makes your vlogs very easy to watch and enjoy. We’ve done Route 66 and would love to get back over to see more of country USA.🇦🇺

[@kathybegay7963]

My family and I travel through Kansas several times a year to visit our kids and grandkids in Cincinnati from 4 Corners New Mexico. We just blaze through never knowing what there is to do there. We even time it to where we do dinner and grab a room in Dodge City. I didn't know there were apps and sites to see what to explore in different states. THANK YOU!

No thanks Scammer because your not really the YT Creator!🤣🍻

[@bobyonker8642]

Thanks for sharing so many interesting parts of Kansas that we were unaware of. Those Swedish meatballs and noodles brought back memories of my Swedish Grandma and Great Grandma. Today we had to settle for the ones at Ikea, yours looked much tastier.

[@davidmolarin]

The kåldolmar looked quite swedish... But I´ve never seen meatballs with gravy and egg noodles here in Sweden.

[@sheilaathay2034]

Ya! My time in Norway and Sweden it was always cabbage with potatoes. Never any noodles. I was told it was because they hate Italian food and noodles were Italian. Very interesting. Even the pizza had a caraway cream sauce. Never Italian.

[@thompam57]

@@sheilaathay2034 No no no we absolutely like italian food here in Sweden but we dont mix italian food with swedish traditional food. Kåldolmar are never served with winegravey.. Potatoes, lingonberry and brown gravey. Meatballs(köttbullar) is served with smashed potatoes and lingon. We also have a lot of fishdishes. Like herring and salmond as traditional food. Welcome back 🥰🇸🇪 ps. Sorry for my poor spelling.

[@leandracohen6596]

Omg the huts is Sweden was the first videos I watched of yours and I was hooked ever since!

[@sheilaputman-mimitreasures4126]

Fantastic to see you traveling through my home state of Kansas! I have lived in Topeka, the State’s Capitol all my life. I wish you could have toured the Capitol building, as it was fully renovated and has a great visitors center. Thanks for sharing so many of the great places to see in Kansas! I hope you’ll come back real soon!

[@RoxRM11]

Kasas food OMG!!! looks amazing

[@PatIreland-k5i]

You missed a few sights - Eisenhower Museum, Seelye Mansion, Dalton Gang Hide out, Hutchinson Salt Mines, Longest grain elevator, and maybe one or two of the aircraft factories that justify Wichita as the Air Capital. You walked down Douglas, but the historic scene is after dark when folks Drag Douglas. Not like it was in the 60's, but occasionally the Wichita folks get together to relive those times. Thanks for promoting a state that often only is known for tornados and high winds that push RVs around on Interstate 70.

I hope the buffalo make a full population recovery and all native species all over the world. Excellent trip, stay safe . Love this channel . Best wishes from Britain 👍🇬🇧🇺🇸

[@Yungrexy]

ooh, didn't know they had been to the UK... I stumbled upon their videos last week, they struck me as a down to earth couple who don't take themselves too seriously and seem to have more of a British sense of humour/silliness. Will look out for that video but I am enjoying the motorhome adventures for now.

I am so glad that I found this channel a few years ago! Cool video as usual! It is interesting to see USA 🇺🇸 Best wishes from Lithuania 🇱🇹

Did you make it to Hutchinson? If not, you missed something special. The Cosmosphere is a world class space museum. Also the salt mine tour is really cool.

[@papaandnanasgreatadventure2379]

Great video, as usual. Don’t know if you knew it or not but what Doc Holiday actually said was “I’m your HUCKLE BEARER”. The reference is to a coffin being known as a “huckle” and what we know today as pallbearer .

Thanks guys. Kansas is one of the states l really want to visit,especially Badlands and Dodge City. That bbq was calling out to me too Thanks again and see you on the next one!

🌴 This is really funny .... I'm chilling out today Sunday 7 th , and this video popped up on Y.T. and started playing while I was away in another area of my apartment, but I could listen on my external speaker and I was, and so I came back to my cellphone to watch the video in which I was interested because I do live in the state of Kansas. And what's funny is as I was watching the nice couple walking through the " Tall grass" area and seeing the Buffalo... I just happen to be enjoying a beer that is coincidentally called " Buffalo Sweat ", by Tallgrass Brewery ! 😂 Never had it before. Saw it last night at a Walmart . So I picked up a six. Wow ! Sooo good ! It's a Oatmeal Cream Stout type. Dark beer,. Tastes of Coffee and Chocolate ! Wow again. But so funny the timing of the video and me have a Tallgrass - Buffalo Sweat beer at the exact same time ! 😂 🌴🌴

[@Hugodwarf]

You were mistaken when you say there isn't much to see in Lindsborg. There is the Old Mill Museum which is a restored 1890 flour mill. There is the Red Barn Studio, the home and workplace of artist Lester Reymer. Plus one of the best art museums in Kansas the Birgen Sandzen art gallery. Not to mention going to Coronado Heights. You can spend an entire day in LIndsborg easily.

[@goingnowhere7845]

When Allison said "We're going to Wichita", who else was waiting for "far from this opera for evemore.."? (I think the only reson I've really heard of Wichita is from 7 Nation Army)

We also just went to the Tallgrass Prarie Reserve when we went back to Kansas for the summer. And we tried to figure out if bison and buffalo are the same, but I guess they are actually different due to body shape haha. It was so cool to see them. Glad you enjoyed it.

When visiting Wisconsin you must try our old fashions. We're famous for them, and there nothing like what you'd get elsewhere in the other 49 states. Whiskey old fashions or Brandy old fashions - either sweet or sour - garnish typically olives or cherries. Word of advice make sure you see the muddle bat (what we call a baseball bat) behind the bar....that's when you know they'll be good

Gotta say, I'm impressed that you updated your opening title animation to reflect the current van you're using. Nice to see ongoing work for struggling graphic artists :)
