We Were WRONG About Bangkok... (First Impressions TRAVEL VLOG)

😍 COME TO VIETNAM WITH US NOVEMBER 2023 😍 www.trovatrip.com/trip/asia/v...
🏠 4 Monkeys Hotel Bangkok: book.justwndr.com/@lloydandma...
In today's travel vlog, we share our experience travelling from Bali Indonesia to Bangkok, Thailand. Thailand has only just recently relaxed all PCR testing and Quarantine rules starting May 1st.
We take you with us for our first 48 hours in the city and explain why our assumptions about Bangkok were completely wrong.
The first few things we checked off the list were Kaoh San Road and eating local authentic street food including Pad Thai, Green Curry and Mango Sticky Rice.
We hope you enjoy the beginning of our Thailand series, and as always don't forget to like and subscribe.

Welcome to my beloved country of thailand. I miss it already, since I'm stuck in the U.S. for the last 12 years working a 6am to 2pm job monday-friday as a mechanical engineer for Microsoft. My goal is to save a lot and then retire within 5 years an move back too Thailand. You both will love the food and all the sightseeing that THAILAND will show you.

[@noneyabizness7288]

I am not a "city person" when traveling. I don't mind a couple days but then I need to get out. Bangkok is different for me. I absolutely love that city and spend weeks at a time there when in Thailand. The small communities within Bangkok make it something special and the Thais, of course, make me feel welcome and happy. November 2022 and I will be back!

It's really nice to watch a travel vlog and not feel like the people making it are full of shit.

[@foodblogjunky]

We love Thailand and have been there 7 times twice thru Bangkok. Where you stay is very important as the first time we picked the wrong area ( on friends advice ) did not suit us at all . last time we really loved where we stayed . Love the local feel and easy to pick the best food when you find a restaurant full of locals. I had read somewhere that they have cleared away alot of the night time street vendors over the years . We so loved grabbing meat on a stick as we called it from the street carts , then guessing what it was . So happy with how fresh and juicy it all was

[@MickyAM]

Which area did you stay at?

[@foodblogjunky]

@@MickyAM the area we liked and stayed in last time was near the victory monument. The shopping centre nearby called Century The Movie plaza had a Tops supermarket for supplies and snacks. The local food options were great and there were people set up on the pavement selling all sorts of food and trinkets. Not sure if this is still happening since covid. But there were reasonable restaurants in the streets around . Plus the train is easy to access there as well . We liked our hotel too the Pullman kingpower. Staff were excellent. Next time we will try somewhere else .

[@WorldwideGee]

Hey guys... I lived in Thailand a few years ago and hated those atm fees. A quick hack I found out was going inside the bank and doing a counter withdrawal. Just wait in line, tell them you want to do a withdrawal, and they'll bring out that little machine and swipe your card there and give you the cash right there -- and you don't get charged atm fees because it's technically not an atm withdrawal. Hope that helps. Safe travels!

[@Aphichat.]

I always wonder that. I will try that next time.

Its called the tuk tuk scam.. u guys got scammed.. hope it doesnt spoil your day!! love bangkok!

[@gossipopithecus]

You should try Paragon food court in Bangkok. Travel by boats on the river, it is very cheap. Try to take sky train. Take motorbike taxi, it is amazing experience. Bangkok has to offer Northern Thai cousine, Southern, East and West. Do not afraid to try different regions foods. Try Durian ice-cream. There are so many different local fruit, which you will not be able to buy or try in your country.

[@crazymonkeytravels]

Thanks will take a look

I have become somewhat hooked in your v-log, guys. I just asked you some questions underneath your "Is Phuket worth it ..." video, in fact. 😁

Well, you guys seem to know where you are going in Bangkok alright. I was surprised that you paid only 10 USD to ride from the airport to Soi Kao San. Thailand is food heaven for tourists and trust me that any where you travel, you will find tons of tasty food. Enjoy your stay guys.

[@ganuv30]

I agree, and it takes much longer than 1/2 hour to get to Soi Kao San Rd from the airport, $10 is definitely not possible

Me too. Even I am Thai. I am using my son’s account. Also surprised that they got good tuk tuk driver, not charge u too much.

During COVID time, here has no traffic jam. Taxi or Tuk tuk drivers tends to be nicer than before!

Wow the price of lodging and breakfast are amazing. The room look clean and good enough to stay. You are lucky to be able to get that price . Enjoy your stay!

[@bunnybunn6591]

welcome to Thailand guys! Anyway, I think the price of the stuff onboard was wrong because I just traveled with Thai AirAsia last week (from DPS-DMK) and the price of water is just 40 thb. So, it’s gonna be only 1.5 usd. When I paid to them 2 usd, I got change in thb! So, I f you pay 5.66 usd as you mentioned, it’s probably 175 thb which is very expensive for a bottle of plain water!! I think it’s gonna be something wrong for you or maybe miscommunication with the crew. And of course, rate is a bit different but it’s acceptable! On the other hand, if you pay in Indonesia Rupia, 1 bottle of water is gonna be 40,000 IDR as IDR is lower that THB.

[@monokuro29345]

Tbh, I agree with this comment. I think it must be miss understanding, because 5$ for a bottle of water is just nonsense. Since I’ve traveled with this airline many time, I know that they didn’t charge that much with the foods and beverages. Btw hope you have a nice holiday in Thailand.

The other foods from the street like this, u can try “Pad Si Eew” or “Radnaa” Pad Si Eew is a kind of fried noodle with kanaa. ผัดซีอิ๊ว Radnaa is a kind of PadSiEew with a little sticky semi-soup(made from corn starch+water) with. ราดหน้า If u can copy those Thai written, then try to find from the net whether how it looks like. They r one-dish meal. However, if u r in the north, then try something else.

While you are in Thailand a must visit is Cave Lodge in Bang Ma pha, Mae Hong son province in the mountains of the the North. I ran small group adventures tours throughout Thailand and SouthEast Asia for 11 years and everyone I took there loved it and the area is full of hill tribe villages, caves and great walks in spectacular scenery. Especially good in the cooler months Oct-Jan/Feb. Super green and lush just after the rains have backed off and as the temps start to drop. Misty mountains and green forests. Women say Kop khun ka and men say Kop khun kup so the street food guy was correcting you in a polite way by saying "Kop khun ka" back to you when you used the men's thank you. When you go up North Mandy can use Kop khun jao as thank you. The locals will love it. 🙂

We just got back from travelling. We're also budget travelers. We learned from our mistake and always bring extra food or snacks we buy either at the market or at the airport.

Completely agree about breakfasts at Hotel if you travel for long. It used to take me at least an hour every morning to find a "worthy" place on some of my trips and it gets exhausting really quick doing all that research among other things. Lisbon for example was full of nice places and although we spent an entire month there last summer with lot's of covid restrictions, so places were not busy, it still took a long time to find a place and by then you are already grumpy 😅

I lived in Bangkok when I got verified by Google (different account) and I had them send the verification piece of mail to a family member and then they provided me with the code (if I remember correctly). This worked because I was using the same family member as my address for my financial accounts so don't know if that is required but maybe that is an option. I don't know if you all are using Aussie dollars or US but it is a great time to use US dollars in Thailand, check out the currency conversion chart. It was 30 to 1 when I lived there.

Thank you for this video. I really like your chill and honest vibe. The tuk tuk may be a scam. The driver gets a commission from the silk shop. There are other scammers near popular tourist spots. Sometimes they would tell you that the temples won’t open until later, and that you should do a tour with them first. But glad you made the best out of it. I usually use the prices on Grab to see if the driver is offering a fair price. Be on the lookout if it is too good to be true sometimes.

The BEST way to avoid the ATM fees? I use my local ING debit card when travelling. None of these "travel money cards". Within less than 4 - 8 hours ALL foreign ATM fees are credited back to your Aussie ING card. Even foreign conversion fees; the same. Works a treat.
