A TOUR of the beautiful local Mekong Riverside in Vientiane Laos!

[@phetindra8216]

17:50 Vientiane will absolutely miss you both...

[@ponming5026]

I enjoyed the video. Take care and be safe guys. 🇺🇸🇱🇦

[@TravelsonToast]

Thanks!

[@tiashiraz8430]

It’s not a lack of rain that is affecting the level of the Mekong so much as the Chinese dams upstream that block the water flow. A year or two ago, the Mekong was really low and there were droughts in northern Thailand and Laos but, despite above average rainfall in China, they did not release any more water downstream. It’s an issue, and more dams are being planned......🤷‍♀️😢

[@TravelsonToast]

Such a shame! Thank you for sharing this with us, we've seen floods when driving near these dams before but of course they can also have the opposite effect.. not good for the people

[@chanthaiphimmasane2585]

very nice thank you

[@hopedelaney]

beautiful! nothin like a river drive on a bike !

[@TravelsonToast]

Thanks Hope!

[@fasteddy60]

That was fun! Thx for posting. :)

[@phetindra8216]

For information, when France and the Rattanakosin Kingdom (Thailand today) divided the Lao lands between themself, they agreed that the river current will be the border unconditionally to the place and the time wherein the deepest channel bed is the crossing line and, the most important, all the islands on the river will belong to the Kingdom of Laos. P.S.: Later, the French managed to pull out two Lao historic lands , Xayaburi and Champasak. That's why today Laos has two regions in the West side of the river.

[@LaoLishLife]

That’s a nice route. Reminds me of my uncle’s neighborhood in BanHai. They have the NahmGuem. Very rural/local/natural..so it is what it is: bumpy dirt roads. I like it for the roller coaster effect.

[@TravelsonToast]

Haha it's fun for a while, couldn't drive for hours on a road like that though!

[@asoudachit]

Wow .... beautiful

[@nhemekeovorabouth3420]

I love the Mekong river side road great places to eat while watching sunset

[@michelejensen7420]

You guys are just too cute. We love watching your videos. You haven’t had many lately and we were getting worried! We enjoyed this one. We actually got to watch the sunset, with Beer Lao in hand, at that big place you drove by called “Moon the Night”... and that was our last trip to Laos in 2007. Seeing it again tonight brought back great memories, so thank YOU for that!! More videos please... we love them all. : )

[@TravelsonToast]

Haha awesome! We try our best to make videos, but sometimes we don't feel inspired because we are stuck in the city and want to explore other places! Once we get time off work we will be going on some road trips and making plenty more content!

[@johncook5162]

Guys! Just stumbled across your channel - I was feeling a bit rubbish in lockdown here in Scotland. I traveled in SE Asia about 10 years ago and had the most amazing time. I would really love to go back but, in the meantime, you have cheered me up and I think you’re videos are just brilliant. Please keep posting and enjoying yourselves in such an amazing place. J xx

[@TravelsonToast]

We're glad that our videos made you feel better, it makes us feel more motivated to keep putting them out there! Hope things get better there soon for you all, best wishes!

[@620EDA]

LOVE your videos! Never boring! Look forward to each one! Your attitudes and openness are awesome! Keep them coming, from anywhere!

[@TravelsonToast]

Thank you so much 😊

[@nickhubbard3671]

Yes - lots of good restaurants and views by the river. Thanks for the ride.

[@MrsPuff-oy9iy]

I remember 26yrs back the road was better and water was higher . Wow ..... thanks you guys. I love Lao ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@TravelsonToast]

[@soisoi5764]

Enjoy watching you guys. Thank you for sharing your video. I missed Laos and you guys are so lucky..!

[@TravelsonToast]

Thanks for watching!

[@jayp7416]

Nice to see you guys driving along the mekong where I usually go eat atleast once when I am there. I really miss it and keeping a eye on when the borders will be open again. I am pretty sure they will follow suit with Thailand and Vietnam. Thanks guys once again.

[@TravelsonToast]

Yeah they are not going to open the borders until the surrounding countries do, hope you can visit soon!

[@conniefry3321]

Always been cool video to watch and can't wait for more stay well and be safe

[@TravelsonToast]

Thank you 😊

[@wolfgangjurgensen9624]

I enjoyed your vid same as the past onces. Stay save and drive! carefully and enjoy this strange times in there.

[@TravelsonToast]

Thanks! It's crazy to be here during these times

[@LAOTHAIASEANINFINANCETRAVEL]

I don’t think anybody’s complaining about the videos from all parts of Vientiane! I certainly enjoy your video, maybe you can go to southern Laos specifically Banh Napong, Salavan province etc.

[@TravelsonToast]

Will try to!

[@Surikon100]

Hello, I am a Lao-Australian that also got stuck in Laos last year from March to November after what was meant to be a 3 week holiday. I always watch your videos as it brings back memories and gives me that sense of connection - oh and you guys are cool too haha, of course you are otherwise I wouldn't watch! Anyways, to answer your question if asking to Like or Subscribe is annoying, I don't think it is. It is the norm in content creator videos and you are not sitting next to us physically making us do it lol. Why I personally don't, is because I don't want the KZbin algorithm to narrow down what I watch and what videos comes up on my feed and I still want to receive a lot of varied content. I could be wrong, but it just makes me feel better. Good luck! Sok di!

[@TravelsonToast]

Haha that's how everyone's lockdown story begins 😂 only meant to be here for a week or two and 8 months later... Thanks for the feedback! But the way that KZbin algorithms work or social media in general is they will be narrowing down what you watch or see based on what you click on/how long you watch something for etc anyway, I don't think subscribing or liking will make much difference, It just adds us to your subscriptions tab so you can easily find the content creators that you watch often 👍 thanks for watching our videos 🙏

[@miguela5543]

i am doing a trip to Laos on the End of October for one month, if you guys are still there i will totally stop by some Sunday by the HUB, love your videos.

[@TravelsonToast]

Who knows! We might be, hope to see you around!

[@sinnakhonesyhalath8256]

It’s Super , beer drink on Mekong with beautiful view..

[@TravelsonToast]

🙏🙏

[@djnor1979]

The mekong is low on water now, but don't worry, by the end of june, it will be full again, seen it over the last year i spent here.

[@TravelsonToast]

The water levels change so much here!

[@tommyb7824]

Beautiful scenery, you guys should try some of the restaurants out👍👍

[@TravelsonToast]

Definitely will!

[@noysydanon8804]

Cool vdo, I’d rather hang out in the restaurant by the dirt road area it seems like a cool local vibe. Definitely looking forward for more vdo from you guys in that area. Cheers 🍻

[@TravelsonToast]

Yeah it seemed like a great vibe!

[@jptravelwithoutflying]

[@TravelsonToast]

Do it when you can!

[@hongthong2756]

verry nice

[@usa8835]

Thank video

[@LaoSoftware]

You're not wearing your usual t-shirt and shorts. Is it cold in Vientiane? I do agree with you. They should finish all the constructions instead of running away from it like they're afraid of it.

[@djnor1979]

It is definitely not cold here now, daytime gets up to 38-40C easily, evening also not lower than 25 for weeks now.

[@TravelsonToast]

We always wear the same clothes no? Very minimal 😂 it's actually really hot right now, up to 38 degrees C on hottest days!

[@makototaeka5680]

Hello, guys. Many beautiful houses but pathetic roads no pavement during the rainy season it will get worse. So sad to seethings never change. You guys have a good day.

[@AutumninAsia]

I envy you guys. I have just retired, got the shots, and now just waiting for the borders to open. Hope to see you soon.

[@TravelsonToast]

Hope you can make it here soon!

[@jackbauer4055]

I lived next door to Moon the night... very nice part of town... sorry to see that places are abandoned at the moment . .

These rastaurant boats never move. I often drive this road, but it’s getting worse and worse with my 10" wheels

[@TravelsonToast]

Ah man, we thought maybe they move during wet season, what a shame!

[@thierryh.5963]

@@TravelsonToast no, but normaly they’re floating. But as China retains to much water, so the mekong is only a part of it’s normal. I just spoke about it with friends tonight (i’m also only tourist)

Please be careful driving around town, it can be dangerous at times. 🙏
