100% I feel like you didn’t even scrimp either. Having expensive imports etc. I also feel like you could have had a bigger meal than nachos for the same price and then not had a KFC later on. Uncle peds can get dangerous for spirits and mixers 😂
@@MrSimonsonLifts yeah 100%, if I’d have stuck to the local beer etc, I could’ve got a lot more for my money. Should’ve maybe done this on my first day when I was fresh. 😂
@@Yorkshire_Lee 😂 exactly, looking forward to that video 👍
Enjoyed your video very well put together thank you
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.
Top bloke, love watching your content and showed all my friends and family. Keep it going
Much appreciated Eric. Plenty more to come.
Loving the videos Lee, really hope you have a new one up soon! I was in Benidorm over Christmas and it was still top notch. It's my Disneyland. Fitzy's is some spot too, Sue is a great lass. Where do you plan to visit next, Lee? Can't wait for more content!
Thanks Irene. I’ve got a video from the North Yorkshire coast going up soon so a little bit different. Then got the last Benidorm video from my last trip. But don’t worry I’ve another 4 visits to Benidorm planned this year. With one in a few weeks. Hoping to get vlogs up at least weekly from the start of May , as my trips are coming thick and fast throughout the summer.
We used to stop at the ambassador over the road from John and Joseph's as kids. It was then called Ray Mar Riviera but ulio who ran John and Joseph's would let me grandma pull pints and serve when they was busy. I need to go back and experience it all again
You should, I bet is all changed a lot - but chance to make new memories.
@@Yorkshire_Lee i went back around 12 years ago and things had changed a little then but I would love to go again now my own children are older and experience it all at a slower pace. Great video though and John and Joseph's looks great
I’ve had great holidays there enjoy
Benidorm is exceptional value for money. The people who take the opinion that Benidorm is like Blackpool in the sun are so wrong it’s unbelievable.
The old town is beautiful and the beach is one (if not the) cleanest I’ve ever seen.
Yes the ‘strip’ is a little rough around the edges but you must have an idea as to what you’re in for if you head down there at night. Rough or not, it’s thoroughly enjoyable!
Barnsley lad here, Up the Yorkshire!
Spot on mate. What a great thought out description. There’s something for everyone in Benidorm. Thanks for watching.
@@Yorkshire_Lee 100% reasonably priced flights flights in to Alicante everyday and cheap accommodation (which again in most cases is surprisingly acceptable). Used to go 5 times a year but work gets in the way of that nowadays :(
Agreed that Benidorm is Nothing like Blackpool, I absolutely hate Blackpool but Benidorm has been my go to place for over 20 years now. Something for everybody and very cheap.
I like to budget €100 a day for food and ale when staying in apartments but don’t normally spend that much everyday. Beer fatigue then cider fatigue then shorts fatigue. The pink shots should be gaviscon.
Yeah I always do the same on a normal day, 100 euros bang on to be comfortable. Gaviscon just don’t cut it anymore, always remember my Nexium control 😂
What a great video as usual. Beni usted to be REALLY cheap but nowadays is affordable, nothing to complain about. I think for a better (also cheap) english breakfast you should try "La Muralla" in Calle de Londres (Rincón de Loix) its a spanish bar but they use proper english products and for the price you got a lot more, also the famous Mariano's is always recommendable maybe its more famous for the chicken but breakfast is very nice too. Have a great week! cheers
Thanks and thanks for the tips, will have tor Mariano’s for breakfast, I do like the chicken from there.
Fantastic beach. Day of sunbathing. Then out for a few beers in the evening. Love the place
Sounds like an ideal day to me. Can’t knock Benidorm at all.
This guys brilliant. I often find you subscribe to the person, not necessarily the content. The content is great, don’t get me wrong, but really enjoy how Lee tells the story. Very much looking forward to new videos, easy subscribe 🙌
Thanks so much. Lots more to come. Got lots of trips planned in this year.
@@Yorkshire_Leelooking forward to it Lee. I’ve binged all your videos now, think they’re awesome! Looking forward to seeing what’s to come 👍👍
I’ve got another 4 trips to Benidorm this year. Each trip I’ll be filming a lot of videos. So if Benidorm is you thing , there’s plenty on the way, as well as UK trips too.
@@Yorkshire_Leelook forward to it. I like Benidorm, and enjoy your videos of it, but also think you’d be brilliant reviewing other popular destinations…what can €50 get you in ‘X’ for example. Wherever and whatever it is though, I’ll be tuning it 😊
That’s the aim once the channel earns a little more.
Had a lovely super mixed grill there
Can’t knock it for value for money. 👌
Great fun. Can i ask what the song was playing throughout the stages please. I like it
I’ll check when I’m back at my PC. I get all songs from Epidemic sound. Unless I licence any , that’s from Lickd.
I love benidorm . Used to live just outside the city.
Times have changed and the days of cheap drinks abroad have gone and when they do have offers on it's usually during the daytime and by the time you've added flights,hotels,day trips and expenses you could of probably gone out 10 days straight in the UK.The drinking culture in general is also different now to what it was over 20 years ago.I went to Greece last year and a pint of their local beer called Mythos was €5 and if i got a pint of Magners or Guinness it was €7.
Love the channel... I really think it has a lot of potential and I wish you luck with it.
I appreciate that and thank you ☺️
I was there end of February and had a breakfast at John and Joseph’s it was pretty disgusting even for 2.95, also noticed the drink prices are on the rise in a lot of places, still way cheaper than home though
Yeah wasn’t the best to be fair. Probably wouldn’t go back. But for 2.95 hard to complain too much. Much better places to go for breakfast. Yeah you’re right, still definitely still a lot cheaper than home.
Busy this time of year? Where to avoid? I'm coming through on Wednesday.
Avoid it altogether.There are so much nicer places in the world to go.Benidorm is the pits, vulgar ignorant people behaving as human beings do when at their lowest intelligence.
It’s starting to get busy for the new summer season. Benidorm is a great place you’ll love it.
Some good bar value for a day trip
Awww just found your channel while having a few bevies with my hubby. We absolutely love Benni and can do it cheap too 👏🏻👏🏻👌👍. A new subscriber ❤👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌
Awesome! Thank you for subscribing. Yeah Benidorm is one of those places that can work with any budget. I’m due back in April so much more Benidorm content to come.
Great video, you will not find any better place for value, entertainment or the friendliness of the people either. We just need the flight prices to come back down!
Yeah 100%, can’t knock Benidorm for value. Yeah we’ve cracked it if it gets cheaper to get over 😀
Have you been to the Benidorm bar from the tv show
Mateo's Benidorm
Yes, it’s a great little bar. With lots of the props from the show.
Great video. I have been lucky enough to travel all over the world, but Benidorm has a special place in my heart. Went with the lads in 2021, and been back every Sept since. Always stay at the Ambassador, great hotel. Cheap drinks, no pretentious people, just everyone having a good time!
Thanks. That’s it , there’s just something about Benidorm that keeps people coming back.
Penny farthin the otherside of the ambassador was the best breaky i had out there hands down
Definitely going to try the Penny Farthing. Few people have mentioned that place for food.
I got home yesterday after a week there, Penny Farthin was my regular breaky. Bit of a wait but worth it. Glad i booked 2day an 2morrow off, bodies achin all over, feel like ive bin hit by a bus. Enjoy 👍🏻
I know that feeling. 😂
76 of age. Great place. It’s fun just be aware you go like anywhere else
That’s the great thing about Benidorm, it’s for all ages.
Love the video can’t beat Beni, do you know what’s the last son you used called please thanks bud
Thanks. I’ll find out when I’m back near my computer mate. I get all my music from Epidemic sound.
Literally my worst nightmare of a holiday
There’s lots more to Benidorm than what’s depicted here. I always think there’s something for everyone.
@@Yorkshire_Lee I get that. I've been living in Spain since I left UK 22 years ago. Not been to Benidorm, but have been to Fuengirola & the likes, and it's just too cringe for me.
The new town is definitely not for everyone. The old town is beautiful and very Spanish, with lots of culture. I’m hoping to film more of that in future videos.
It’s miles cheaper than here it’s like £5-6 a pint in most pubs now ! Other than spoons up north
Yeah , 100% cheaper in Benidorm. Just flight to pay to get over 😎☀️
greta video! god knows how i manage to spend on average 170 euros a day......... maybe its the vodka from 12pm -3 am???
😂😂 it’s easily done. Thanks glad you liked it.
Alright big man 😂
Done a great job mate i still wont be going
dutch viewer, professional voice nice to follow exciuese my french
Thanks, glad you enjoyed the video.
Nice video ;)
What a place something for everyone
You’re not wrong. 😎
Recent subscribers keep up the great content 👌
Thanks Mark appreciate that. Back over in Benidorm in April so much more to come.
You can get food at your hotel in the price of your room, pretty cheap . Ambassador is a cracking hotel 👍🏻
Yeah fantastic hotel, I’ve done a review on the Ambassador, if you’ve not seen it.
@@Yorkshire_Lee 👍🏻seen it . Great review
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it.
Oh will go watch. My dad just back from the Ambassador he loves it there. I've never stayed in it. Just came across your channel.
@@carolmullen4218 it’s a great hotel. Glad you found the channel ☺️
£140 a pint of Estrella Dam at the Meeting Point just off the main strip
It’s great value isn’t it. I could’ve done it a lot cheaper sticking to the cheap lager.
The worse thing about this video is how much milk went into that tea 😅😂
Great video really🤟
😂 thanks. It didn’t taste particularly milky 😂
brilliant m8
Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed.
For someone that has autism Benidorm is a bit too loud for me
I love the peak district nice and quiet but would love to visit Benidorm one day
You should try it and stay in the old town area. Much more peaceful down that side of Benidorm.
Very nice
Sol is £10 for Box of 12 in Tesco 😊
Enjoyed your Benidorm vlog prices are amazing, Liverpool prices are too expensive 😮
Thanks. Your money definitely goes further in Spain. 🇪🇸
Omg @11.58 till 12.04 I thought they were statues 🤷♀️🤦♀️🤣🤣🤣 did you pay them to do that 😅😅😅😅😅 😊🤗
Get 20 bottles of mahou down you a day on a good breakfast and a steak can’t go wrong in beni
Definitely can’t go wrong in Benidorm . Great value and it’s impossible to not enjoy it.
Love that hotel going bk to it in aug
It’s a great hotel. I reviewed it on my channel too.
We stay for 2 times 3rd time in aug
Can’t fault it. Food really good and great location.
Great video mate. Ignore the keyboard warriors. 👍
Thanks mate. Yeah been a few trolls about for this one.
Love this vid (but whats "heinz" beans got to do with it, ( i did not sing that as Tina turner honest) 😋 a bean in tomato sauce is a bean) 😂😂😂😂 anyhoo ive been goin benidorm for 25+ years and ive always gone J&J's best cheap and nicest food ever, and staff are so lovely and polite!! Myself and my boy 17yr old are going for 2 wks end of july and WE CAN'T WAAAAAIT FOR A J&J'S Breakfast, AND Bingoooooo to add ❤❤❤
Thanks , glad you liked it. I disagree , I think there’s definitely different quality of beans. 😂
Drink less save. Ie soft drinks in-between beer etc
Soft drinks are usually more expensive than the beer.
Another great video. Cheap as chips 😊
Yes I think you still get good value for money. Glad you like them!
My mrs wants to go here next year 😮. No chance.
You may enjoy it , lot more to it, than just the new town and British side.
Allways go to uncle Peds see you soon❤
Great bar and so cheap.
One drink watching 2 shows in Sinatra's, no wonder you can do it so cheap. No-one would ever only have one drink.
Was tail end of Elvis and we didn’t stay for all of Tom Jones. One drink and gone. Thanks for watching.
Benidorm is ace, it's worth the 50€ for the live entertainment alone
Great point. Not one bar charges for admission, and has some great acts on.
Went to Albufeira twice last year and we thought we'd give Benidorm a go, just came back and wouldn't return, proper rough. Bars are decently priced during the day but night time is a rip off. Food is cheap yeah but rank! rather pay more for quality! I can see why people like it (old folk and fat men ) just not my cup of tea!!
I’ve been to Albufeira , Cyprus, Majorca, Turkey and none of them hold a candle to Benidorm. There’s something for everyone, not just the rough, fat and old as you so eloquently put 😂
@@Yorkshire_Lee each to there own mate,I also went Cyprus last year in a 5 star resort Benidorm didn’t even come close, you ain’t getting luxury in Benidorm , but I guess some people like Blackpool with sun!
@@doxter2133 it’s definitely not for those seeking 5 star luxury. But some really nice hotels that are quite luxurious , got a couple booked in I’m reviewing. Old town is a total different vibe.
Weird place. I have never heard of it. Looks like the defauly holiday destination for uk binge drinking boomers.
But sometimes the simple life is a good thing.
Cant get cheaper than asia though. 60usd in cambodia or Philippines you would be in hospital
Video was well put together. I subbed. Thanks mate!
Thanks mate. You’re not wrong with your assessment. 😂 although this was January , and you get a bit younger crowd other times of the year.
What's the music Lee?
It’s music from a website called epidemic sound. Need to be quite careful with the music in bars etc for copyright strikes. So I pay to use from there.
Looks like a nice place, any Euro pints
I'm going to be touring all the places in Benidorm with €1 pints on my next trip. Thanks for watching.
Disclaimer.....No fresh fruit or veg were harmed in the making of this video!
When in Rome 😂
What's the definition of a Yorkshire man??? They are like Scotsman but with all the generosity squeezed out!!
😂😂 like it.
yeh best u stay in benidorm mate
True he's a tramp...no class just a cheap stake...
Once you start going to Sinatra’s, Western saloon, Cafe B etc then your budget isn’t going far.
Been to Benidorm over 50 times and there are hundreds of bars cheaper.
Yorkshire Pride, Wooky Hollow, Duty Free bar to name just a few!!
100% correct. Could’ve got absolutely legless if I’d stuck to cheaper drinks in the cheaper bars.
Don't forget the carousel
Can’t believe you didn’t go to the black chicken
We did go in this trip , but not on that day. Will get some footage next time. Love black chicken
Black chicken?? Why would you like to eat burnt food??
@@stevenhull5025 it’s a bar in Benidorm, not overcooked poultry 😂
I had the displeasure of a stag do here, Jesus it really is something 😂 Full of English getting tore into egg and chips and horrible lager haha. Why not stay at home for that fare?
The weather maybe? There’s so much more to Benidorm than what you describe as well.
Don't get the brit obsession with the old 'English breakfast' abroad. But fair play, decent video, apart from the Yarkshire accent 😘
Thanks, appreciate that. Can’t do much about my accent 😂😂
You go all the way to benidorm for a full English breakfast 😂 funny
When in Rome 😂 thanks for watching.
You dont drink tea when you on hoilday beers only any time of the day😊
Can’t argue with that. 😂It was my fifth day though.
I do. I am teetotal thanks to cirrhosis of the liver.
Sorry to hear that.
30 quid for an all inclusive for one day... i know where am suppin :P
Where can you get AI for 30 quid? I’m booking 😂
Was princess leia fighting the empire?
I’m lost with that one mate 🤷
you should have drunk local beer , it would have been much cheaper
100% I’d had enough of beer in the evening though.
€50 , €20 for dinner and tea . €30 booze 😂 that be how I do the budget
When in Rome 😂 That’s the way to do it in Benidorm 🍺
Benidorm might be cheap but the flight plus hotel packages on expedia are not cheap. Cheapest I could find for flights+hotel for 1 week in August for 1 room 2 travelers was £1500. I think for that price you can go somewhere better.
It’s definitely gone up, especially when doing it separately. I find you get more value with a full package holiday 9/10 these days. At least you get luggage , transfers also included.
It cost me £1600 for 2 people for 7 nights in sidari and their local beer called Mythos was €5 a pint and Guinness on draft was €7 and the price of meals were pretty much the same as the UK.
Nothing much to do than have a breki and go on the piss all day then except its cheaper and the weather's better
Sounds good to me 😂
Exactly. If you don’t want to get legless and don’t like crowds and loud places then it’s a nightmare. I’m 55 now, used to go to Ibiza in the 90s. I now like peaceful places, nature, culture, trying the local dishes. Glass of wine sat on the balcony or terrace in the evening is now for me.
@@missmuffet3874 you’re misinformed then, Benidorm isn’t just about getting legless. There’s a totally different side to it.
Fitzys great little bar lol fxxk off it looks like a total dump for old people 😂
Great folks from the North East that run it and great atmosphere. It was January so age demographic was on older side across Benidorm. Thanks for watching.
Lovely costa blanca is the best place on earth
Absolutely 💯
You obviously haven't travelled much on this earth if you think that.
@@stevenhull5025 yes I have actually, I’ve been to usa Florida California, Turkey, Greece; Spain, Italy, Canary Islands, Ibiza, Portugal, France, Holland, Belgium, Norway, & more, and Spain is now home, one of the best countries in the world. I have a villa near Alicante, I’ve lived in other parts of Spain and the Netherlands I’m from London uk originally👍
I agree, the Costa Blanca is a beautiful place and l’ve also been to many places around the world (New Zealand, USA, Portugal , Cyprus , Poland, Turkey, Egypt among others)
I take €100 a day, that's ale and food, usually does me
Yeah on a normal day, 100 euros is about right. Can’t wait to get back.
Good video dude. I don't know why you only have the subscribers you do? You should have a hell of a lot more... Good content, good video
I appreciate that, thanks mate. Only been at it a few months , but steadily growing. Hard to film as much as I’d like working full time. More to come though.
You paid extra for the tea with the breakfast
Yes, was about 5 euros altogether as seen and added in the video.
No chance you only had 1 pint 1 bottle and 4 koperburg on a night out
It was my last night mate. So was ready for home. On a normal night would’ve definitely spent more. If I’d have been up for lager would’ve got a lot more drinking estrella or mahou.
@@Yorkshire_Leeshould of bought a bottle buckfast drank that before u went out then few beer good to go
this title needs renaming to: how much alcohol can you buy with €50 in benidorm 😂
True that 😂😂 a lot more if I’d have been more strategic.
Rate my holiday
Right dive
You leave t’whippet at home lad ?
Yes and my flat cap, forgot t’pick it up when I finished me shift down t’pit. 😂
Where is benidorm
Costa Blanca, Spain. 🇪🇸
Great videos
Thanks, really appreciate that. More to come.
Always laugh at people say bqd things about Beni and never been like i say there us more than the strip. Oldbtown pointe side
Yeah they’re usually the ones that criticise. There’s so much more to Benidorm than people realise.
you done 12 hours on 50 euros not 24
Nope 24 hours 9am to 9am , I have got to sleep 😴
@@Yorkshire_Lee funny that shouldn't you had another breakfast, lunch if you done 24hrs
@@davidgomm6043 I did have another breakfast , as soon as the 24 hours were up. I wanted it to be a fair comparison, three meals in a day (1 breakfast , 1 lunch and dinner) Thanks for watching.
I like people who love their food
BEEP BEEP 🍳🥓🤣🚙🚙💨💨
Keep smiling 😊
Renames video a day out for €50
Do you have to be over 50 to go here lol
It was January, so a slightly older demographic. I’m back in April and it will be totally different as it’s hen and stag season.
Cheap days are gone...
Yeah not as cheap as it once was. Still a lot cheaper than the UK though.
I live on on £31 per week because I don't throw my money away on girls, takeaways, booze and fags.
Great video mate I've just subscribed
Awesome thanks mate. Glad you liked it.
Moaning about a 2.95 breakfast is everything wrong with Brits in Spain.
You get what you pay for, as I said in the video. Better places about if you want to spend more , but on a budget it was edible.
Nowt wrong with Beni lol
I agree💯 - impossible to not enjoy yourself.
I wouldn't go there it looks like a shit of place
There’s something for everyone. This only really shows the new town. The old town is beautiful, more of that to come. Thanks for watching.
breakfast of nightmares!! ffs
It wasn’t the best, I’ve got to say. For 2.95 not sure I was expecting any better. Lot better options available for more money.
When u drink 5 drinks for the day 50e would do silly video
Think I had 11 alcoholic drinks and 1 cup of tea. But who’s counting 😎 thanks for watching
I feel sorry for your liver and your future health.
Thanks for your concern. Like I said in the video it’s not a regular occurrence, but when in Rome (Benidorm) 😎
So this is where you go when you're old
It is in January. It’s a different crowd at other times of the year.
British people make me laugh, let’s go to a foreign country to eat English food
This is one side of Benidorm, there’s some great local cuisine too, especially in the old town. They’ll be videos showcasing some of that later on.
Nachos are mexican, KFC is from the USA 😉
@@hikerwoody182 very true 😂😂 and kopperberg is Swedish. Quite a diverse day 😂
@@Yorkshire_Lee 😂😂👏
Looks hideous
More to Benidorm than the new town. The old town is beautiful. Thanks for watching.
