Hello! How many hours you stay at Hallstatt?
@@carolinamarques3917 @carolinamarques3917 Hi! We spent the whole day there. We got one of the first buses there and got the last ferry back! You could spend less time there but we wanted to really take it all in so would recommend the same 🩷
Hello guys! Great video! I'm going to spend the New Year's eve in Budapest too! I wanna ask how long did you spend on Matthia's Church line (if you recall) and where did you spend the New Year's Eve afterall...was it St Stephen's square? Thank you :)
@@anasburns Oh how exciting, have the best time! Simon spent 10 minutes in line to get tickets and then about half an hour in line to get in to Matthias's Church. We ended up in Vorosmarty Square (Vörösmarty tér) for NYE 😊
@simonandmaddy Thanks for the info! 🫶🏻 Take care
Very lovely, love your videos
Thank you!!
Hey I saw so many subscribers in your TH-cam channel but why are the views so low
Hey! Our Aus/NZ ones don't seem to blow up as much but our Europe ones hit a wide audience. Go check out our Prague video! 😁😮
Beautiful place

Hello, how are you? I am a regular viewer of your TH-cam channel. I came here to say that- Your content is always engaging and incredibly well-presented!" Good luck to you.
@@youtubedeveloper27 thanks so much!! ☺️
Thank you! Was so happy to hear you ordering in English. I have been nervous that there would be less English speakers there than other European countries.
Hey! Yeah we didn't have any troubles ordering things etc in English. All the places we went, they seemed to know basic English 😊
Beautiful ❤
Thank you! 😊
Wait, you can now go inside a Hobbit hole?! AMAZING! Great video guys, thanks for sharing 😌
Yes!! It only opened about a year ago. You'll have to check it out! ☺️
Giving you guys a thumbs up for your smiles :)
Aw thank you! 😁🩷
Was the Christmas market open on the actual Christmas Day?
Yep sure was! 😁
hi! do you have a guide as to where the alternate track is? <3
Hi, it's the normal track 😊 some parts were closed off, and we saw a few people going around so we just went around. The track should be reopened in December 2024. Depending on when you go, you should just be able to walk the usual track :)
Hey! Sorry if I missed it but could you please share which hotel you stayed at? Thanks! x
Hi! We stayed at High Heaven Hotel (Kaprova 8, 110 00 Josefov, Czechia) and we were in Elegant suite 8. Very nice place and super convenient location! 😊
Too much selfie time is ruining the video. Lots of unnecessary details.

Would you mind sharing the Lauterbunnen place that you stayed in? We are heading there in December.

Beautiful waterfalls❤❤
Probably the best we've seen!! 😍
Did you have to get tickets to tour the old town hall and the clock tower? If so, where can I reserve them? I am planning my first trip to Prague during this Christmas!
Hi! Yes we did :) we just got them on the day from the clock tower. We would highly recommend going around sunset so you can see the sunset, as well as the town during the night. But just a warning, it does get very busy! Have the best time ☺️
When was this? Which month?
We were there in January ☺️
Brilliant guys. Kia Ora for another beaut vlog.
Thank you. Such a beautiful country 🫶🏼
Kia Ora guys. Great vlog! Mauri Ora.

Dear Simon and Maddy, I want to ask you about which month you travelled grindelwald and lauterbunnen? Thanks in advance ❤
Hi! We were there in January 😊
How much is it to rent a snow boots? Thank you.
Hi, we can't remember exactly but it was about 70 CHF for two people for the day 😊
Interlaken is so much better in summer.
We've never been in Summer so can't compare but we loved the winter! We will have to go back in summer one day though 😍
@@simonandmaddy I am glad you enjoyed your stay. All the best to you. 🍀
What happened to your sneeze😅?
Haha it went away!
Hahaha It sucks when it happens😅😓
what time did you go?
I can't remember the exact time sorry but it was around midday, probably about 1pm and was during Winter 😊
@@simonandmaddy thx a lot
Beautiful New Zealand ❤thanks guys❤
NZ truly is so beautiful ❤️❤️
Looks amazing ! We are french filming locations fans. Hope to go there one day ♥️
It's amazing! You should definitely visit one day 😁
You literlaty start video wher i work 😂
Small world! 😆
Guys found your channel yesterday and binged half of your Europe vlogs in one day. Loving them.What did you use for connectivity as you visited many countries ? I am also planning a multi country trip.
Thanks so much! If you're referring to travel between countries, we got a eurail pass and got trains between the countries. If you're referring to connecting to the internet we got an eSim. Sorry Simon and I interpreted your question differently 😂
@simonandmaddy I meant esim only. Thank you :) I was wondering if plans like Airalo Global pass work well, or you took separate esim/ physical sim in each country.I am sorry I was not clear.
@@Moumita1988_ We got a few of the SimDirect Europe & UK eSIM (50 Countries) 30days eSIM. (Had to get a couple because we were there longer than 30 days) They also have one that's up to 90 days but it only covers 30 countries. You just need to check which one covers all or most of the countries you're going to. Airalo is pretty much the same so would also recommend. Obviously the global pass is more expensive because it covers everywhere so you could get away with just the Europe pass, you just need to check which countries it covers! Hope this helps :)
Thanks so much h for sharing! Looking to have our honeymoon in New Zealand and seeing all this is really encouraging!
Thank you for watching! We love New Zealand so much! We hope you have an amazing honeymoon ☺️
Beautiful video❤
Thank you!!
How long was the walk to the Cathedral Cove?
The car park we started from was about half an hour from the start of the track (the actual carpark was closed) then the track took us about an hour, so about 1.5 hours to get there :)
Lucky dude. Exploring a beautiful city with a beautiful woman.
Yep very lucky!!
when were you there? did it snow? 😊 thinking about booking a trip this December
We were there December last year for Christmas and it didn't snow. December was a magical time to visit and we really loved it 🩷
I'm too old and too poor to travel, so a big THANK YOU for your wonderful travel blog. It was almost like being there, but without having to stand in line. Cheers!
Omg thank you so much! We appreciate the lovely comment and are so glad you enjoyed the vlog 🩷
@@simonandmaddy You're very welcome. I've seen virtually every Prague Christmas video, and your's is the only one that gives you the feeling that you're really there, from viewing the beautiful sights, to getting lost, to reading a little map, to eating the smoked ham. I could almost taste it!!! I could tell you are also very much in love, which makes it even better. God bless you both.
Could you guys do a video of the list of stuff you brought that helps a lot and stuff that you wish you left? Also interested where you guys bought all your winter accessories especially Simon's hat!
Everything we show in this video was of good use and there wasn't really anything we would've left behind! Just make sure you have good quality, non slip boots (the ones Maddy shows here actually broke!) Simon's hat was from forever 21 :)
I binge your Europe series this weekend and I'm teary eyed, it was as if I traveled there with you two! Thank you for capturing it perfectly! You two are such a lovely couple!
Thank you so much for supporting our channel and for the lovely comment. We really appreciate it and so glad you enjoyed our videos 🫶🏼
I think Maddy took it easy on you on Chess 🤣
Yeah let's just say that 😂
so Maddy did really end up getting some sneaky shots at the ballet 😉
You should have included that scene where Maddy was struggling walking in the wind on the bloopers lol
😂😂
Loving the bloopers 🤣
It's our favourite part to edit 😂
I didnt know the garden is free but they do advertise tickets on the website? I wonder what that is for?
Hi, yes the gardens were free to enter. When you buy tickets for the inside of the palace, it includes the garden but you can just visit the garden by itself for free. Hope that makes sense! We didn't book in advance so the only tickets available were the state apartments, which wasn't the best value for money. If you can, I would probably get the grand tour or just visit the garden.
"Do you wanna have one now?" is never a question you say no to lol
Haha exactly! 😂
subscribed and been watching you both since I am going to the same places you guys are going, I like how you both really toured around and the shots are all pretty, its like I was there. I just hope I could hear you guys better but great vlog!
Thanks so much for the kind comment! We're glad you're enjoying our videos and hope they help you with planning your trip! 🩷 Thank you for the feedback, we do have microphones that we're trying to use more and you can always put the subtitles on too ☺️
That little man you saw is a Māori carving
Thank you. We realised after!
How long ago were you at Cathedral cove?
@@kristynaredman6586We spent about an hour at the beach but it took us quite a while to walk there, about 1.5 hours to get there 😊
I love your vlogs. What month was this shoot?
Thank you! This was mid-December. Great time to visit leading up to Christmas ❤
Love the tunes! Prague is one of my favorite cities and going back this December. Safe travels!

Hello, I thought Tokoriki was adults only? I see kids and families in the video.
@@TheMazi56 Hi! There are 2 resorts on Tokoriki island, Tokoriki Island Resort (where we stayed) and Sheraton. The Sheraton is adult-only. Tokoriki Island Resort is family-friendly. At Tokoriki island resort, there is a section of the accomodation that is for adult-only but all other facilities are family friendly. Hope this helps 😁
