My hometown❣ I was so shocked when I saw "Wichita, Kansas" in the title of the video lol. Everyone thinks Kansas is so boring but Wichita is full of so much life and activity! Thank you for showing the world the Wichita community and culture, everything was spot on in this video and I'm so glad you guys enjoyed it as well!!
Aww thanks so much for watching & for the kind comment! That truly makes our day! It really is such a cool place! We wish we could've stayed longer & explored! Looking forward to coming back!
That’s why I clicked on. Matt & Nat, y’all really have done a great job of enjoying Wichita. Thank you!!! Seriously, I want to travel like this. Do you also, use drones in your vids? Only way to get some of those views. I must watch a few more locations. God Bless your adventures.
For anyone traveling to Wichita, some other must try’s include: 1. The Sedgwick county zoo 2. Botanica 3. The Spice Merchant 4. White Dove 5. Old Mill Tasty Shop
YAY Wichita!!! I moved here in 1987 when I graduated from UMass, because my parents had moved here while I was in college so my mom could teach at the university - nice try mom and dad, I found you!! I think for at least 10 years I complained about no mountains and no ocean. Then I grew up and realized this is the best spot on earth. We have all the fun stuff big cities have and none of the bad stuff like traffic (I get crabby when I have to sit through 2 red lights during "rush hour") and a high cost of living. I wouldn't live anywhere else but here. Of course my son moved to Dallas the second he graduated from college, but clearly I'm a good detective. I found my parents, I can find him too!!! Thank you for being SO wonderful about our city!
I've lived here my whole life and always wanted to explore this place like a tourist. You all have inspired me to get on it and explore Wichita!! Great video!
Aww that makes our day Jessica! Thanks so much for watching & commenting! We feel the same with Nashville (where we live) because it’s always changing! Lol 😂 thanks again girl! 🥰💗 -Nat
Aww… Thank you so much, Abbey!!🥰🥰 It was a pleasure meeting you! Thanks for running all over the Nifty Nut House with us and putting up with us as we tried a hundred different samples!🤣🤣 We hope you’re doing well!😊😊
I live in Wichita! Theres so so much more that they didnt get to see! Exploration Place, Sedgwick County Zoo, Ulrich Museum of Art at Wichita State University, Botanica, Museum of World Treasures, and so so many awesome local places to eat I cant even list!
Thanks so much for watching & for taking the time to comment. Yea, unfortunately we only had 1 day to explore Wichita but we can't wait to come back and explore! It's such a gem! Thanks for the recommendations for when we come back!
Exploration place was always a fun time, even if we went every year on school trips, my birthday, keep the child occupied day, thinking about it starting to think I lived there. 🤣
I love that you’re here!! Old Mill Tasty Shop is a must!! On Douglas right across from Home Grown!! Mary and Don will take super care of you!! Your photography and video are super!! Thank you for coming!❤️
Heyy!! Thanks so much for watching! 🥰 We truly enjoyed our time in Wichita! Haha… Isn’t it funny the perception that people have of certain places?! We were pleasantly surprised! Lol
Awww our pleasure!! Thanks so much for watching & for your kind comment! Wichita definitely has a special place in our hearts! We truly had such a wonderful time there! 💗
Have spent my whole life living here in the Wichita area and I have a long list of great places to eat that I still haven’t been to. Glad you all came hope you all come back sometime there is so much more.
@@AdventuresofMattandNat yup, also over a 8yr period in the early 2000's got to see the Orphume theatre renovations in the back stage areas. There's another beautiful place to pop onto as well as the Scottish rite temple next door.
So cool yall are from Tennessee like me. I live here in wichita, wish I could have pointed yall around. I know you guys only had so much time but there is a few days worth of stuff to do here. Thanks for putting us on the map!
Thanks for visiting my city! With the world crashing down all around us I just feel thankful that my town has kept pretty normal so far. I think people here for the most part love America and want to preserve its roots. You can feel it by just visiting here. I have a friend that moved to Smyrna TN and she said the locals don't like people from Kansas and treat her kind of bad because of it. Well, you guys are welcome here in Kansas anytime. I like seeing people take interest into the town I was born in and plan to stay till I die. There are always people that think the grass is greener on the other side, but I beg the differ. lol Good luck on your journey and be safe!
@@melanieortiz712 don't think too hard about it. You can read into the history of ANY country and find good and evil. If you want to make something out of what I said and turn it into something hurtful then maybe America isn't a good home. I like to believe IT'S the best home! (I mean, we are pretty damn awesome!) Apparently other people in other countries think so too or no one would come here. Lol. Have a good day friend.
WICHITA KANSAS boy here as well... 33 yrs old.. busted my ass as a kid working on the farms... now I'm an aircraft mechanic in the air capital of the world here in ICT Kansas
Absolutely!! Thanks so much for watching and for taking the time to watch and leave such a kind comment! We appreciate it more than you know! You have a great hometown! We can't wait to come back and explore more of it! I'll never forget the saying "The grass is greener where you water it". I always loved that. Hope you have a great night & thanks again! ❤
@@AdventuresofMattandNat thanks fam! I hope more of us have a chance to say hi and help yall out... we do have our lemons here... but most of us are great, loving, caring folks... I was so happy to see my home state make it on a channel like yours... keep doing what yall do... and thanks for being positive and appreciating what our small town has to offer...
I have lived in Wichita my whole life, so this was insane to watch. I recognized almost everywhere they went. Wichita is just such a great city, and very interesting to see from an outside perspective.
Born and raised in Wichita , love this city , yes it has crime and homelessness but every major city does but on the other hand most people are pretty friendly and welcoming , Im proud to call Wichita my home , places to visit the Zoo, Exploration place, and tons of great places to eat
Thanks for visiting my town, I've lived here all my 60 years of life, folks have always said Wichita is boring, but there is some really cool stuff you just have to look for them. Thanks again Glen
Hi you two! You guys are having way too much fun!! Haha… love the chicken dance! 😂 Nat you have a sweet voice! 👌 The keeper of the plains statue looks really impressive. Good Job, made Witchita proud. 😎🎬🎥
Hey guys!!! We are LIVING for your Mexico trip on insta! We can't wait to watch the videos when ya'll put them out! Aww thank you, that makes my day! It really was a good time! Thanks for watching y'all!
@@AdventuresofMattandNat !!! Glad your enjoying the reels and the stories on Mexico (We had a blast doing them) Anne and I decided to do just that! practice our Stories and Reels on Insta and Tik Tok; not to make videos on this trip, just enjoying my daughters company and catching up. Stay tuned for our on going Florida series...(Just got back today)
So glad you picked Wichita to visit! As I was scrolling thru and seen your topic I just had to watch since Wichita is my home town, born n raised here! Wish you guys could have had an extra day to explore, but awesome film nonetheless, so I'll be keeping up with your travels!
Aww thanks so much Lyndi! We are excited to have you along on the adventure with us! Yea, we would've LOVED to have stayed longer but unfortunately had to get back to our jobs (insert eye roll emoji lol) But we can't wait to come back & explore!
It’s so weird living in Wichita and coming across a video about my town! Some places I’ve never been to but hear about! But I love keeper of the plains. So relaxing for a nice walk!
Hey guys, you were sooooo close and walked by the Art Alley off of Douglas and missed the “hidden troll” near the Keeper of the Plains / Veteran Museum - next time 😀
My Hometown. It's covered in snow and ice right now. I go to Nashville every chance I get and I love it. Nat you have a beautiful voice I bet you sing in Nashville.
Haha… Yea, those midwest winters can be brutal! 🥶 It’s just been rainy and cold here in Nashville! But we love it here! And yes… Music is what brought both of us to Nashville! She’s got a beautiful voice!😊
As always, you pack SO MUCH into your day. First I have to say how beautiful your voice is Nat. Awesome acoustics! Matt, your dancing always brings joy - even the chicken dance. 🐓 Wichita offered more than I expected.
Aww… Thank you!!🥰 I just couldn’t help myself when we stepped into that old church! 😍 Hahaha… I’m glad someone else gets a laugh out of his dance moves!🤣🤣 Wichita absolutely exceeded our expectations! Thanks so much for watching!!🥰🥰
Good job guys! I’m leaving here for almost 35 years and was the best desicion I made, my kids grow here and they still here! Very safe and freedom place. Good bless you both
I'm a life long Kansan, 65 years in fact. Kansas is one of those cool states that you have to actually have to get off the interstate highway to see all her glory. Next time you come through Kansas plan a week and I will gladly be your guide. I live in Salina, lived here for 55 years. I am however from North East Kansas near the town of Wamego. Loved my childhood there but my dad took on a new opertunity in 1966 and moved us to Salina. It is a great city of opertunity, but the small farming communities were magical places for kids to grow up.
Soo true!! Kansas was really so great to us! We can't wait to come back & explore more! You live in a GREAT State! Thanks so much for watching & for your comment! Hope you have a great day! 🥰
Im watching videos about kansas because I just came back from there and I Loved it. It was the prettiest place Ive ever been and cant wait to go back in the summer. Cant wait to see the sunflowers and wildflowers along with the thriving crops. Went to Dodge City on the trip and I loved that. Somethings were closed off season.
Aww thank you so much! 🥰 We appreciate you so much!! Thanks so much for watching & for your kind words! It was so fun to sing in that church! Thanks so much for coming!!!
Aww thank you so much! That just made my day!! I feel like thats every city but you can find the beauty anywhere if you can look for it. & it wasn't hard in Wichita! lol Thanks for watching & taking the time out to leave such a kind comment!
You blew me away! You could be my tour guides anytime! And your voice is *so beautiful!* I went to Wichita State in the early 70s and was on the radio there before coming back to New York where I had a 40-year career on TV. Wichita still has a place in my heart. And your fun 'adventure' made it special! I'm hooked. Can't wait to see your other videos!
So sorry for the late reply 🙈 We’re trying to catch up! Aww thank you for watching & for your kind comment! 🥰 Thank you so much for your sweet words! They mean more than you know! That’s so cool you had a career on TV! 🎉 What a dream! We appreciate you & hope you have an amazing New Years! 🎉
Looks like you had a fun time in my state. I was wondering when you would get to Kansas and where you would go. That’s great! I’ve lived here my whole life but have never spent much time in Wichita. My wife and i might have to make a road trip down there soon. Guessing you two were in Kansas around late July or August by the 95° temps. Sorry about that. Really enjoyed you sharing your adventures. Stay safe.
Hey friend!! How are you?! It honestly was so much fun!! Anymore recommendations on where else to travel to in Kansas?! Y’all definitely should, it’s a great city! You are SPOT ON!! We were there in July & finally have time to actually edit (without the traveling lol) thanks so much for watching & for taking the time to comment! Hope y’all are well! 💗
Thank you for representing our town in a great light. You are welcome back anytime. You hit aome great highlights, but if you need any spots for your next stop let me know.
It honestly is so underrated! It’s such a gem! We can’t wait to go back! We had such a fantastic time! Thanks so much for watching & taking time out to comment! 🥰🎉
As always great video. Never thought of going to Kansas just like Saint Louis my list keeps growing and I am sure it will get bigger in the next 22 videos
Thanks so much friend!! We appreciate you so much! haha We keep finding all these gems all over the country! lol you are sooo right! lol Our list is growing to come back to! lol
You would be absolutely correct if we're talkin Western Kansas. 😂 I live in a small quiet town with a population of 2,000. Wichita, lawerence , Manhattan, and kansas City Kansas have lots of fun to have there. Now Nebraska & Iowa are vlogs I want to see if there's any fun there lol
@@ragnarlothbrok938 lol I think we’re just spoiled being in St Louis, MO-for a Midwest city, there’s a never-ending list of things to do here, and a lot of it for free!! 💕🎉 I know about the Field of Dreams home in Iowa that I think would be neat to visit someday-or better yet, see a baseball game there! And I’ve heard the zoo in Omaha, NE is better than the one in Kansas City, MO, but you’re right, other than those two things, I’m out of ideas for Nebraska or Iowa!! 😂
@@ShowMeAnAdventure I live in newton but I lived in Wichita for 15 years! I’m jealous because my son now lives in Iowa and I haven’t been able to visit yet!
glad you enjoyed our city, you've only scratched the surface of what Wichita has to offer, and I would encourage you to spend some more time exploring if you return, you won't be disappointed
Hey James, We will definitely be back! Yea we had to get back to our jobs otherwise we would've loved to have stayed longer! Thanks for watching & for your comment!
Stumbled across your video. What a treat to see a great video about our city. I don't think the visitor's bureau could do any better job. You packed a lot into one day! Great choices. Glad you enjoyed!
I live close to Wichita. In a smaller town, and we go to Wichita for date nights lol. Haven't been to some of the places you went to, thinking I should take the kids to the art museum! I saw a comment on here saying they didn't personally agree with you traveling the U.S during covid, and I wanted to say the complete opposite. I exponentially appreciate it honestly. There is no "during covid" or an end to this. It's pre covid and post covid. It's not going anywhere, might as well stop being so scared to actually live life again. I love that others are committed to bringing back a normalcy to our new normal ❤
Oh and I subscribed. I can't wait for summer break and to take my family on a vacation somewhere we have never been! I think your series is going to be a perfect reference for places to go, close enough to home that we don't gotta get crazy witb travel expenses and long trips with the babies, but out of our normal views views daily lives and I CANNOT WAIT!
Hey Elizabeth! Thanks so much for watching & for your kind comments! 🥰 They truly made our night! 🎉 Both of our parents own small businesses & when covid hit.. a bunch of our favorite restaurants & businesses were struggling to stay open so that was a reason we wanted to show people places to go that would help our fellow Americans. You are right though, It will never go back to what it was unfortunately. Thank you for your kind words. They really mean the world to us! Thanks for subbing, we are so excited to have you on this adventure with us! 🎉 Thanks again for making our day!
@@AdventuresofMattandNat Well, just drop a comment here when you come back, and I'll be your probably overly chipper guide. 🤣💜 Can't wait! 😁 Edit: and thank you!! I hate Kansas, but I absolutely love my city. 🥰 So thank you!
My goal is to get to all 50 states. I needed Texas and Kansas to complete the contiguous 48. To be honest, we were having a little trouble coming up with an itinerary for Kansas. Based solely on your experience, we went to Wichita and stayed in the same hotel you guys stayed. Perfect location! We really enjoyed our time there. Your video was very informative and helpful to us. Thank you! PS…we’re in WV. So glad you enjoyed your visit. Next time, come in October and go to Bridge Day in Fayetteville on the new river gorge.
Aww... This makes our day to hear!! So glad you enjoyed your time in Wichita and that our video was helpful! And congrats on 50 states! Or at least close to it if you haven't hit Texas yet! So exciting! And yes... We LOVED WV! Visiting on Bridge Day is something we've talked about doing! It looks epic!
Wow this is so amazing. I have been here in Wichita Kansas for 5 years but i never seen most of those places. I have work to do now in my next weekend. I have to go check out some of those old places here.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍😍 thank you guys so much for coming here.
Hahaha we feel the same about our city of Nashville! It’s hard to keep up with! lol 😂😜 Happy we could show you a couple things! Lol We had a great time in Wichita! Can’t wait to come back! Thanks so much for watching & commenting! 💗🥰 - Nat
You guys did an awesome job of showing what there is to do in Wichita. I can think of quite a few more things, but I realize you only had a limited amount of time. I've watched a lot of videos, and I'm confident in saying....your channel will do very well! Keep up the great quality content!
Aww thank you so much! Wichita is such a gem! We only had 1 day there but we cannot wait to come back and explore more! Thank you so much for the recommendations! Aww thank you for taking the time to write such kind words! They truly mean more than you know!
My home ❤️ thanks for appreciating everything here & coming here with an open mind, it looks like you had a blast! Most people seem to think the only thing here in Kansas are farmlands.
Absolutely! There is so much beauty around you if you are willing to look for it. We absolutely had a blast! Such a great time & we can't wait to come back!
Thanks for highlighting Wichita, not too many people are willing to scope out the city. I do find one point lacking. Wichita is the home of a major business, famous in the Bar-B-Que industry, All Things Bar-B-Que in the Delano district. A place that is needed to be seen.
I lived in Wichita for 2 years and he’s right about the BBQ. The best. I have it shipped from Jack Stacks in Kansas City. In Wichita itself ,I would Recommend going to Bite Me BBQ on N Saint Francis. That was my go to after work! You have to have the burnt ends!!! Delish. 😊👍🏻🥰
Looks like a fun vacation! The food looked amazing and your singing was on point Nat (and Matt ;) The art museum is right up my alley. I would have LOVED that place! You both always make me smile. Thank you for these great videos & congratulations on becoming a travel agent lady!!
Awww thank you so much Kali!! 🥰 We appreciate you watching & taking the time to comment & making our day! The art museum was honestly so good! Thank you, super excited to help others travel! Have a wonderful night! 💗💗
It’s so weird seeing someone explore my city. It looks so pretty from someone else’s point of view. Wish you could have seen more.
You live in a great city! I wish we could've too.. had to get back to our jobs (insert eye-roll emoji lol) we are so looking forward to coming back!
I agree I am born and raised here and haven't seen some of these things myself. Good ideas for staycation s
frfr its so rare, but i hate wichita personally
@@theycallhimV I mean same but it’s just cool seeing it from someone else’s view
I didn’t even know we had a home grown restaurant here 😅

I know right represent

For anyone traveling to Wichita, some other must try’s include:
1. The Sedgwick county zoo
2. Botanica
3. The Spice Merchant
4. White Dove
5. Old Mill Tasty Shop
Oh great recommendations! We are looking forward to coming back & trying some of these!
The zoo is easily the best part of Wichita, weirdly enough one of the best in the country…
A wonderful alternative to Sedwick Country Zoo is the Tanganyika Zoo. We love how much more interactive it is!
@@victorn6065 it definitely is more interactive but it’s has some sketchy vibes and I’ve heard some bad stories about how they treat the animals
I would add
Exploration place especially if you have kids
Doo dah dinner
Riverside cafe
My home ❤️
Thanks for visiting and showing people that we have civilization just like everyone else 😂
Haha… The pleasure was all ours! Isn’t it funny what peoples perception of certain places is?! Thanks so much for watching!🥰
@@AdventuresofMattandNat did you see any of the 11 waterfalls in Kansas? Yes, they exist and we're not as flat as people like to joke about us.
@@melanieortiz712 wait, there's waterfalls? Where at?
@@joshuaherpolsheimer3541 one is at Chase County Fishing Lake. If you Google waterfalls in Kansas, there is a list
@@joshuaherpolsheimer3541 yes

Honestly the people were so kind! Can’t wait to come back!

I live in Wichita too :)

Exploration place was always a fun time, even if we went every year on school trips, my birthday, keep the child occupied day, thinking about it starting to think I lived there. 🤣
The Sedgwick County Zoo is so underrated would definitely check it out. One of the best zoo's in the U.S.!
Life long Wichitan here - thanks for coming and making us look so good! Hope you will come back sometime! I am here if you have any questions!
Thanks so much Alan! We had a great time & can't wait to come back & explore some more!
I love that you’re here!! Old Mill Tasty Shop is a must!! On Douglas right across from Home Grown!! Mary and Don will take super care of you!! Your photography and video are super!! Thank you for coming!❤️

I lived in Wichita for 17 years. Loved it. Definitely the best food. I miss it.
Have spent my whole life living here in the Wichita area and I have a long list of great places to eat that I still haven’t been to. Glad you all came hope you all come back sometime there is so much more.
Oh I bet! It's such a cool city! We cannot wait to come back & explore!! Please give us all the recommendations! lol
Wonderful video! Natalie, your singing in the church gave me goosebumps!! So beautiful! ✨
Aww…🥰🥰 Thank you! You’re so sweet!❤️
I had friends who were cow town reenactors who married in that church.

So glad you picked Wichita to visit! As I was scrolling thru and seen your topic I just had to watch since Wichita is my home town, born n raised here! Wish you guys could have had an extra day to explore, but awesome film nonetheless, so I'll be keeping up with your travels!
Aww thanks so much Lyndi! We are excited to have you along on the adventure with us! Yea, we would've LOVED to have stayed longer but unfortunately had to get back to our jobs (insert eye roll emoji lol) But we can't wait to come back & explore!
I love seeing people explore where I lived my whole life
Thanks for watching! We really enjoyed Wichita!😊😊
It’s so weird living in Wichita and coming across a video about my town! Some places I’ve never been to but hear about! But I love keeper of the plains. So relaxing for a nice walk!
Ah love that! Thanks so much for taking time out to watch & comment! You live in a cool city! We can't wait to come back!
Great video of our city. I've lived here all my life. It will always be home for me!
Next time come out for River Fest. It's so much fun! There's a bunch of activities in the river, live music, drinks, food...it's a blast.
That sounds like a blast! Thanks for the recommendations and thanks for watching!😊
You guys are the best American couple who travels and me and my wife we're your fans! Thank you for all of your movies and greetings from Poland!
Aww thanks so much! That makes our day! We appreciate y’all being on this adventure with us!
Hey guys, you were sooooo close and walked by the Art Alley off of Douglas and missed the “hidden troll” near the Keeper of the Plains / Veteran Museum - next time 😀
My Hometown. It's covered in snow and ice right now. I go to Nashville every chance I get and I love it. Nat you have a beautiful voice I bet you sing in Nashville.
Haha… Yea, those midwest winters can be brutal! 🥶 It’s just been rainy and cold here in Nashville! But we love it here! And yes… Music is what brought both of us to Nashville! She’s got a beautiful voice!😊
@@AdventuresofMattandNat do you have a page where I can check out your music. Do you know Gooding ict
As always, you pack SO MUCH into your day. First I have to say how beautiful your voice is Nat. Awesome acoustics! Matt, your dancing always brings joy - even the chicken dance. 🐓 Wichita offered more than I expected.
Aww… Thank you!!🥰 I just couldn’t help myself when we stepped into that old church! 😍 Hahaha… I’m glad someone else gets a laugh out of his dance moves!🤣🤣 Wichita absolutely exceeded our expectations! Thanks so much for watching!!🥰🥰
Good job guys! I’m leaving here for almost 35 years and was the best desicion I made, my kids grow here and they still here! Very safe and freedom place. Good bless you both
Thank you so much! That's awesome! It's so nice when you love where you live! Thanks for watching!😊
So cool to see our town featured in a positive light! I'm so glad you guys enjoyed your time!
We sure did!! Love the name btw ;) - Nat
@@AdventuresofMattandNat I like yours too 🥰🥰🥰
My home. I grew up in Wichita. Thankyou for experiencing this.
It’s a great place! Thanks for watching! 🥰
So happy to see you enjoy our city. I have ways lived in Kansas and have lived in Wichita for 18 years and wouldn't want to live anywhere else!!
it's honestly such a great city!! Can't wait to come back!
I'm a life long Kansan, 65 years in fact. Kansas is one of those cool states that you have to actually have to get off the interstate highway to see all her glory. Next time you come through Kansas plan a week and I will gladly be your guide. I live in Salina, lived here for 55 years. I am however from North East Kansas near the town of Wamego. Loved my childhood there but my dad took on a new opertunity in 1966 and moved us to Salina. It is a great city of opertunity, but the small farming communities were magical places for kids to grow up.
Soo true!! Kansas was really so great to us! We can't wait to come back & explore more! You live in a GREAT State! Thanks so much for watching & for your comment! Hope you have a great day! 🥰
Why do I feel so proud?!?! I love my town!
Haha... Glad we (hopefully) did your town justice! Thanks for watching!😊
I was there in 2014. Loving memories. Greetings from Ecuador (South America)
Im watching videos about kansas because I just came back from there and I Loved it. It was the prettiest place Ive ever been and cant wait to go back in the summer. Cant wait to see the sunflowers and wildflowers along with the thriving crops.
Went to Dodge City on the trip and I loved that. Somethings were closed off season.
Thanks so much for watching! It really is a beautiful place! And many people don’t realize it! We hope you have a great visit in the summer!😊
My first 16 years was in Wichita. Loved it. Went to Hadley, then North High
You two are just adorable 🥰 Natalie wish we could of heard more of your beautiful voice!!! Such a fun vlog!!! Thanks for bringing me along!! 👍👏🙋🏼♀️
Aww thank you so much! 🥰 We appreciate you so much!! Thanks so much for watching & for your kind words! It was so fun to sing in that church! Thanks so much for coming!!!
Thank you for coming here! Born an raised here and love seeing someone enjoy our home
It's a great place! !Looking forward to coming back & exploring!
That's my town! Thanks for showing this place some love! ❤
Aww love that! Thanks so much for watching & taking the time to comment! We really enjoyed our time & can't wait to come back & explore more!
Ah, the Nifty Nuthouse, where my pocketbook and waistline could easily suffer... Glad you liked our city!
Bahahaha sooo true! That place was amazing! 🎉👌🏻
Thank you for visiting. Wichita has its issues but is a great city. Thanks for being so nice and complimentary! Btw, you have a beautiful voice!
Aww thank you so much! That just made my day!! I feel like thats every city but you can find the beauty anywhere if you can look for it. & it wasn't hard in Wichita! lol Thanks for watching & taking the time out to leave such a kind comment!
You blew me away! You could be my tour guides anytime! And your voice is *so beautiful!* I went to Wichita State in the early 70s and was on the radio there before coming back to New York where I had a 40-year career on TV. Wichita still has a place in my heart. And your fun 'adventure' made it special! I'm hooked. Can't wait to see your other videos!
So sorry for the late reply 🙈 We’re trying to catch up! Aww thank you for watching & for your kind comment! 🥰 Thank you so much for your sweet words! They mean more than you know! That’s so cool you had a career on TV! 🎉 What a dream! We appreciate you & hope you have an amazing New Years! 🎉
Looks like you had a fun time in my state. I was wondering when you would get to Kansas and where you would go. That’s great! I’ve lived here my whole life but have never spent much time in Wichita. My wife and i might have to make a road trip down there soon. Guessing you two were in Kansas around late July or August by the 95° temps. Sorry about that. Really enjoyed you sharing your adventures. Stay safe.
Hey friend!! How are you?! It honestly was so much fun!! Anymore recommendations on where else to travel to in Kansas?! Y’all definitely should, it’s a great city! You are SPOT ON!! We were there in July & finally have time to actually edit (without the traveling lol) thanks so much for watching & for taking the time to comment! Hope y’all are well! 💗
Thank you for representing our town in a great light. You are welcome back anytime. You hit aome great highlights, but if you need any spots for your next stop let me know.
Yea we are always looking for recommendations! One day just isn’t enough… (expect for that’s all we have sometimes lol)
This is my home city! ❤ You picked some good spots to feature. Thanks for visiting and choosing to highlight a truly underrated place to visit!
It honestly is so underrated! It’s such a gem! We can’t wait to go back! We had such a fantastic time! Thanks so much for watching & taking time out to comment! 🥰🎉
Welcome to my hometown, glad you stayed & had a great time. Thank you for showing off Wichita, hope you come back again soon.
Aww thanks! We had a great time!! We can’t wait to come back!
As always great video. Never thought of going to Kansas just like Saint Louis my list keeps growing and I am sure it will get bigger in the next 22 videos
Thanks so much friend!! We appreciate you so much! haha We keep finding all these gems all over the country! lol you are sooo right! lol Our list is growing to come back to! lol
My hometown! Great highlight!!!! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’m from Wichita! So cool y’all explored our city! 💕☺️
It's a great city!!! Can't wait to come back!
TH-cam would wait 13 days to recommend this video.
Thanks for stopping by and enjoying my city. Your welcome back anytime.
Haha... Thanks for watching! 😊 So glad you enjoyed it! Wichita was great to us!
My home! Though I’ve been here for 30 years and never find anything to do 😩 I am glad this beauty city it’s being recognized 😏🤍🤍
haha we feel ya. lol It's a great city!
HMU girl!! I’m here and bored all the time 🤪
@@Golden90960 Abby who ? I know two abbies lol
So glad you enjoyed Wichita! There are SO many restaurants here, it's crazy!! Great vlog!
Y’all found more to do in Wichita than I thought there was to do in the entire state of Kansas. Lol 😂 the old town spot looked so interesting!
🤣🤣 Honestly, we felt the same until we visited! Wichita definitely exceeded our expectations!
You would be absolutely correct if we're talkin Western Kansas. 😂 I live in a small quiet town with a population of 2,000. Wichita, lawerence , Manhattan, and kansas City Kansas have lots of fun to have there. Now Nebraska & Iowa are vlogs I want to see if there's any fun there lol
@@ragnarlothbrok938 lol I think we’re just spoiled being in St Louis, MO-for a Midwest city, there’s a never-ending list of things to do here, and a lot of it for free!! 💕🎉 I know about the Field of Dreams home in Iowa that I think would be neat to visit someday-or better yet, see a baseball game there! And I’ve heard the zoo in Omaha, NE is better than the one in Kansas City, MO, but you’re right, other than those two things, I’m out of ideas for Nebraska or Iowa!! 😂
@@ShowMeAnAdventure I live in newton but I lived in Wichita for 15 years! I’m jealous because my son now lives in Iowa and I haven’t been able to visit yet!
@@AdventuresofMattandNat ططدطد
The prettiest city!!
It’s a great city!!!!
My CITY!!!! So awesome to see you enjoy it here in one day! Homegrown is my spot! Thank you for visiting! ♥️🥰
Absolutely! You live in a cool city! Homegrown was soooo good!!!
glad you enjoyed our city, you've only scratched the surface of what Wichita has to offer, and I would encourage you to spend some more time exploring if you return, you won't be disappointed
Hey James, We will definitely be back! Yea we had to get back to our jobs otherwise we would've loved to have stayed longer! Thanks for watching & for your comment!
Thanks for showing the beauty of Wichita. It really isn't as boring as everyone says. Glad you guys had fun 😊
Stumbled across your video. What a treat to see a great video about our city. I don't think the visitor's bureau could do any better job. You packed a lot into one day! Great choices. Glad you enjoyed!
Aw, thank you so much! We’re glad you found our channel! Thanks for watching!😊
Awww glad you two enjoyed my hometown! 💗 Come back and visit!! 😌
Aww... Thanks so much for watching! 😊
Well not just your city but mine too!!
I happen to stumble across this page🤠🤠
It’s amazing what I learn from your content!! Another state I want to see (on my bucket list)!! Seems like a fun filled day!! Great job 👏
Aww thanks so much for watching! 🥰 We are so happy you enjoyed it! Kansas was such a fun state!
I live close to Wichita. In a smaller town, and we go to Wichita for date nights lol. Haven't been to some of the places you went to, thinking I should take the kids to the art museum! I saw a comment on here saying they didn't personally agree with you traveling the U.S during covid, and I wanted to say the complete opposite. I exponentially appreciate it honestly. There is no "during covid" or an end to this. It's pre covid and post covid. It's not going anywhere, might as well stop being so scared to actually live life again. I love that others are committed to bringing back a normalcy to our new normal ❤
Oh and I subscribed. I can't wait for summer break and to take my family on a vacation somewhere we have never been! I think your series is going to be a perfect reference for places to go, close enough to home that we don't gotta get crazy witb travel expenses and long trips with the babies, but out of our normal views views daily lives and I CANNOT WAIT!
Hey Elizabeth! Thanks so much for watching & for your kind comments! 🥰 They truly made our night! 🎉 Both of our parents own small businesses & when covid hit.. a bunch of our favorite restaurants & businesses were struggling to stay open so that was a reason we wanted to show people places to go that would help our fellow Americans. You are right though, It will never go back to what it was unfortunately. Thank you for your kind words. They really mean the world to us! Thanks for subbing, we are so excited to have you on this adventure with us! 🎉 Thanks again for making our day!
dang i worked at river city many years
best food in wichita in my opinion

It was sooo good!!! Hope we can make it back!!
Thanks for visiting my home as of 2005! There's so much more here, you need to come back!
Our pleasure!! We can't wait to come back to explore!
Wish I'd know about you guys sooner. I could have been a total guide. 💜 thanks for reppin the best city in this state. 💜💜💜

@@AdventuresofMattandNat

Love it. The breakfast looks delightful and the lunch… 🤤 yum!! Now I have to visit Wichita!
We were very pleasantly surprised with how good the food was in Wichita! Overall, it exceeded all of our expectations! Thanks so much for watching!🥰
You guys are awesome!! Thanks for coming to my city of Wichita!! Please come back. I will have to take you to some places!!!
Aw thanks so much!! We are so excited to come back!
I've always been curious about Wichita because I've never been and can't find a reason to go, but this video sure helped get to know it better!
We have never really been anywhere in Kansas but it honestly was pretty cool! Thanks for watching girl! 🥰
@@AdventuresofMattandNat Of course! Great vlog as always!
Pretty cool when they have the cattle drive through downtown "Cowtown".
What a beautiful trip
My Hometown is really a great place to live. You guys did an amazing job on the Keeper Of the Plains. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!!😊
My goal is to get to all 50 states. I needed Texas and Kansas to complete the contiguous 48. To be honest, we were having a little trouble coming up with an itinerary for Kansas. Based solely on your experience, we went to Wichita and stayed in the same hotel you guys stayed. Perfect location! We really enjoyed our time there. Your video was very informative and helpful to us. Thank you!
PS…we’re in WV. So glad you enjoyed your visit. Next time, come in October and go to Bridge Day in Fayetteville on the new river gorge.
Aww... This makes our day to hear!! So glad you enjoyed your time in Wichita and that our video was helpful! And congrats on 50 states! Or at least close to it if you haven't hit Texas yet! So exciting!
And yes... We LOVED WV! Visiting on Bridge Day is something we've talked about doing! It looks epic!
So glad you visited our city! I moved from Denver to Wichita and was expecting to be disappointed but expectations have been far exceeded. 😍🌻
Crazy to see people touring my town!! It’s so beautiful and it gets so overlooked
Hii, is Wichita safe?
Wow this is so amazing. I have been here in Wichita Kansas for 5 years but i never seen most of those places. I have work to do now in my next weekend. I have to go check out some of those old places here.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍😍 thank you guys so much for coming here.
Hahaha we feel the same about our city of Nashville! It’s hard to keep up with! lol 😂😜 Happy we could show you a couple things! Lol We had a great time in Wichita! Can’t wait to come back! Thanks so much for watching & commenting! 💗🥰 - Nat
You guys did an awesome job of showing what there is to do in Wichita. I can think of quite a few more things, but I realize you only had a limited amount of time. I've watched a lot of videos, and I'm confident in saying....your channel will do very well! Keep up the great quality content!
Aww thank you so much! Wichita is such a gem! We only had 1 day there but we cannot wait to come back and explore more! Thank you so much for the recommendations! Aww thank you for taking the time to write such kind words! They truly mean more than you know!
I live in Wichita Kansas..I work Charley's at the Towne East Mall..I'm from Vegas but I like Wichita..it grew on me
That’s awesome! Yea, I can imagine that move to some adjusting! Two very different places! We love both though! Thanks for watching!😊
My home ❤️ thanks for appreciating everything here & coming here with an open mind, it looks like you had a blast! Most people seem to think the only thing here in Kansas are farmlands.
Absolutely! There is so much beauty around you if you are willing to look for it. We absolutely had a blast! Such a great time & we can't wait to come back!
I hope you guys enjoyed your visit to Kansas the state I call home
We definitely did! Thanks so much for watching!🥰
Thanks for highlighting Wichita, not too many people are willing to scope out the city. I do find one point lacking. Wichita is the home of a major business, famous in the Bar-B-Que industry, All Things Bar-B-Que in the Delano district. A place that is needed to be seen.
Our pleasure, It's a great city! oh really?! Had no idea! We'll have to check it out next time we are there! Thanks for that!
Wichita isn’t known for BBQ, that would be KC.
I lived in Wichita for 2 years and he’s right about the BBQ. The best. I have it shipped from Jack Stacks in Kansas City. In Wichita itself ,I would Recommend going to Bite Me BBQ on N Saint Francis. That was my go to after work! You have to have the burnt ends!!! Delish. 😊👍🏻🥰
Live in Wichita definitely enjoyed the video‼️🖤
Looks like a fun vacation! The food looked amazing and your singing was on point Nat (and Matt ;)
The art museum is right up my alley. I would have LOVED that place! You both always make me smile. Thank you for these great videos & congratulations on becoming a travel agent lady!!
Awww thank you so much Kali!! 🥰 We appreciate you watching & taking the time to comment & making our day! The art museum was honestly so good! Thank you, super excited to help others travel! Have a wonderful night! 💗💗
Wichita is actually a test kitchen city. So many places will try their menu items here first. Also the birth place of Pizza Hut and White Castle.
Thank you for visiting our city wichita is awesome.
It was our pleasure! Thanks so much for watching!😊
