I have a Thai friend who lives in Chiang Mai, and she recommended The Riverside to me, when I was over there a few years ago. It was during Loy Krathong, so it was absolutely packed and I was lucky to get a seat. But I was able enjoy a delicious bowl of Khao Soi and a cold Chang, while watching the lanterns float down the Ping River.
Hello Geoff, from Colorado, US here. Me and my fiancé are your newest fans ❤ we are inspired by your videos, travelings in foreign places, your positive attitude, smiles, and your sense of humor. Keep on being active!
Good Evening Geoff. You are looking very Well and Fit. Having a Lovely mooch through the streets of Chang Mai. I really Loved seeing the Chinese Dragons at those Beautiful Temples. Lots of Beautiful Restaurants and to see those Gorgeous Flowers. The Perfect ending of your Excellent Movie Geoff. A chilled Pint of Guinness at the Red Lion Tavern. Geoff you always make me Smile and feel Good about myself. May you Enjoy the rest of Your Incredible Chang Mai Adventure. You are a True Gentleman. Thank you very much for Sharing your Movie with me. Jonathan/ England. 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁💯💯💯💯💯💯👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hi geoff. All that area where you walked was submerged by muddy flood waters a few months ago...its amazing how they have cleaned up.and restored the business.,and there's a few new ones appeared . Nice walk/video... Also China town and the extensive fresh food market are near the flower market. .
I live in Nong Hoi just south of the Ping. Cannot explain what a magical city CM is. Thai people in the North are a bit more reserved but the friendliness is unparalleled, and it’s so safe. Last year our house got flooded, and I cannot explain how many locals came round to help us clean up. Unlike other vloggers, Geoff has really captured Chiang Mai in his series.
Hey geezer I like your vlogs and yes subscribed and hit the like too. If ever in the south more and I see you i shall have a nice beer or scotch lined up for you. Good reporting and always a smile . Take care happy 25.
Always follow your gut feeling Geoff I do and it’s saved me a few times. Your food looked amazing and I bet you enjoyed it Great video yet again beep beep keep smiling
Geoff , you're a tonic son , here I am , back in snowy grey Stockport - brrrr - your little walkabout has cheered me right up , thanks a mil , sir ! Brilliant ! : )
Love seeing you mooching around Thailand over Pattaya. So many beautiful places to visit. Nan isn't bad Geoff, it's more quiet than the most common places and much more authentic Thailand just a bit far from Mai maybe worth planning next time. You've got Rai or Pai more near you. Worth visiting just once one day for you. Great video mate. Enjoy your holidays 👍🙏
That gut feeling is great advice Geoff. I have also always listened to mine. Top video again. I live in Australia with my wife from Chiang Mai. Great to see you exploring the beautiful city. Regards Brendon
Been in that Riverside bar a few times in the past...Brilliant at night, full of locals having a great time. Very friendly bar...Give it a try Geoff!!. Loving the videos!!
Will be there in December to see my stepson who’s in university not been before thanks for the insight can’t wait counting the days ❤️🙏❤️keep smiling ❤️🙏❤️
That restaurant on the river was closed for a few years and used to be called The River Market, the food in there used to be tremendous- glad to see it reopened- give it a try Geoff, it will be good to know if it’s still as good. Turn right over the iron bridge and there’s another restaurant on the river bank which also serves great food, it did two or three years ago anyway 🙏😊🇬🇧
Absolutely love the north of Thailand. 🇹🇭 some of my fav food in the north must be Khao Soi 🙏🏻. Enjoy your trip 😊 it’s super fun to watch your videos 🎉 if you have the change you should Check out the hippy town called Pai in Mae Hong Son province. It’s around 2.5 hours from Chiang Mai away. But be careful if you catch a minibus going there since it’s super curvy. Not the best experience for your tummy. Pai is one of the best places in my opinion.
i was thinking that Geoff, its better to mooch sometimes, you only have to be in the wrong place and it all goes wrong, anyway, good mooch , and you found some lovely places, keep smilin😃
Whatever you do Geoff is so positive and energetic videos ... absolutely loved watching the video 🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍✈️✈️❤️ Whenever I visited Thailand....I walk so much. The parks n sde walks are good ...compared to my country...and lot n lot n lot of places to explore walking...
I don’t follow my stomach feeling because I have been caught up six times for cancer in my stomach. I’m old friend of “Kev in Thailand.” The only thing I follow is you? Keep smiling.🙌🙏
Nice video. Looks like a nice place also to vacation, different then the beach towns. How to decide where to visit for the 1st time? Great info. Thanks, take care.
Yet another great vlog Geoff, the Temple's are amazing, I loved the riverside restaurant bet it does look great at night lit up. Great value for money for your meal,I dont how they do it for the money,hope you do do the river trip it would be great to see
Hi Geoff didn't you say you were going to show us where you was staying or have I missed that one. I love chiang mai will be there in February part of my visit to the land of smiles. 😊
Hi mate loving the videos on cold winters evening and brilliant seeing you walk past my hotel today, they said it was central and sure is. Are you able to see what massages cost here and I am after a suit do any recommendations would be greatly received. Nick From Northamptonshire
The Red Lion had the cheapest Guinness in Chiang mai for several years at B199 .Now at B259 it's no longer the cheapest as I found a place in the old town yesterday at B240. The UN Irish Bar are B299.Happy drinking
My wife and family were real worried about me riding the bike during the holidays. I stayed home because it’s very dangerous.The young drivers are the most dangerous usually after lunch til the evening. Early morning isn’t as much risk if you drive slow careful and come to a stop or slow roll at intersections. Village life is good but there are many blind spots. The city doesn’t get to busy in the morning
Hi Geoff me an my wife love your blogs in Thailand. What your advice on which places to stay ,remembering it will be our first time in Thailand we like night life and the drink and food
Thailand has become expensive. 6 quid for a salad and a small Coke might not seem much, but that's almost a days wage in Thailand for someone on the minimum wage, to put that into perspective that would be like paying about 80 quid here... for a salad and a small glass of coke. I understand it's tourist prices but still..
$7.50 for a 4% Guinness is a rip. That is a tourist trap. Interestingly, there are many new Thai microbrews available at Big C and even some at 7/11 with respectable alcohol %. They are ~6% and pretty good for what they are and cost about $5 bucks for the same amount.
Watching your videos transports me away from all the ice and snow here in the UK . Thanks Geoff
Your forgotten overpopulated cesspit island
You are more than welcome 👍👍👍👍
What i enjoy the most about your videos is the Joy you have in your travels .

Wow!! Guinness in Thailand never seen before , maybe only in changing Mia !! A well earned pint 🍺 enjoy mate!!
Brilliant vlog mate keep smiling 😃😀😊☺🙂🙃🤗😁
Wow almost 60k subs, fantastic work Geoff.
Another good one. Good to see people enjoy themselves so much.
Just up the road from Red lion opposite Chinese temple is a restaurant Lemon Grass.. fantastic.. if you're still there worth a trail m8
Will be there in December to see my stepson who’s in university not been before thanks for the insight can’t wait counting the days ❤️🙏❤️keep smiling ❤️🙏❤️
Cheers Geoff. I need to get back to Chiang Mai.
Absolutely love your vlogs mate
The Riverside is a good night and gets very busy, back in the day I spent a night or two there.
That restaurant on the river was closed for a few years and used to be called The River Market, the food in there used to be tremendous- glad to see it reopened- give it a try Geoff, it will be good to know if it’s still as good. Turn right over the iron bridge and there’s another restaurant on the river bank which also serves great food, it did two or three years ago anyway 🙏😊🇬🇧
Thanks for the Cheers Geoff - You should give Splitting the G a go sometime - keep enjoying yourself - Cheers back to you - Andy - Andy Parker
Absolutely love the north of Thailand. 🇹🇭 some of my fav food in the north must be Khao Soi 🙏🏻.

But be careful if you catch a minibus going there since it’s super curvy. Not the best experience for your tummy. Pai is one of the best places in my opinion.
That’s the reason I’m not going Chris. Hate mini buses. And a taxi is over 3500 baht. So it’s not an option. Had Khao Soi the other night. Delicious
Love too see you mushing around
Take a bottle of Chang fore me 😊🙏
Cheers 🍺🍺🍺👍
You was wrong about the river being called The Ping,it's actually called The Pong after the stench
Beautiful video sir. I really appreciate your work sir. Remember keep smiling 😅❤
i was thinking that Geoff, its better to mooch sometimes, you only have to be in the wrong place and it all goes wrong, anyway, good mooch , and you found some lovely places, keep smilin😃
Glad to see those places by the river ping are recovering from last year's flood. 🙏
Yes slowly getting back to normal now
Always trust your intuition Geoff. Great advice.
Whatever you do Geoff is so positive and energetic videos ... absolutely loved watching the video 🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍✈️✈️❤️
Whenever I visited Thailand....I walk so much. The parks n sde walks are good ...compared to my country...and lot n lot n lot of places to explore walking...
Glad you enjoy them EarthC 👍👍👍👍
Another cracking movie Geoff

Great movie Geoff......O my days over 6£ a pint,you stick with ya chang beer buddy
Geoff, always follow your instincts 👍🏼
I don’t follow my stomach feeling because I have been caught up six times for cancer in my stomach. I’m old friend of “Kev in Thailand.”
The only thing I follow is you? Keep smiling.🙌🙏
Goodness me that’s brought back some memories walking over that bridge 13 years ago since I was last there Thanks Geoff
Good walk that, Geoff, and the thai food is super😎
Enjoyed the vlog again mate!
Some pubs in Dublin are charging 9 euro - 7.50 GBP for a pint of the black stuff that is brewed in Dublin...
Nice video. Looks like a nice place also to vacation, different then the beach towns. How to decide where to visit for the 1st time? Great info. Thanks, take care.
Cheers Karen 🇹🇭👍👍👍👍

d'ya mind me asking - did you meet Sweeney before you left Pattaya?
Kin ell Geoff you’ve done me a massive one here. Going to riverside Sat neet. Gunna do cruise now. Cheers
Chef's together A1 😁but the mozzys will get you ,beep beep ❤️

Nice vlog 😆 🤣 nobble knees
Hi Geoff me an my wife love your blogs in Thailand. What your advice on which places to stay ,remembering it will be our first time in Thailand we like night life and the drink and food
£6 quid is good price mate,you can pay that in many Liverpool bar's.Onky the one Geff ? 😅.
What a lovely man
I like how you make an effort to find interesting things in your vids, unlike some slightly lazy vloggers who just upload empty nonsense. 🙏🏼👍🏾
Well said , or the vloggers that slag off the U.K. and then all of a sudden need the U.K.
Thailand has become expensive.
6 quid for a salad and a small Coke might not seem much, but that's almost a days wage in Thailand for someone on the minimum wage, to put that into perspective that would be like paying about 80 quid here... for a salad and a small glass of coke. I understand it's tourist prices but still..
215 baht is not £6.01 unless you got a really bad rate. 215 baht is £5
It was 259 baht not 215. Get to specsavers
@@geoffcarterhe’s on about the food 😂
Bridge over the River Ping!!! 😆
You should always follow your gut feeling…
It's brewed on licence in Singapore mate.
I thought the "dogie stuff" was now illegal???
How is the air quality??
Fine at the moment, the burning season starts end of Feb….nightmare for 2 months. I bugger off to Samui with the family.
fantastic video as usual geoff i never get tired of watching brilliant your the best by far
$7.50 for a 4% Guinness is a rip. That is a tourist trap.

think you got your sums wrong, 215 bht is £5
Looks nice Geoff , but will it be a ring of fire😂😂what’s this space!!
It's also a creaghan fav drink how do you think aunt glad reached 100
A tipple of the black stuff Barry 🤣🤣🤣
