BANGKOK to KANCHANABURI (Rough Travel Day) 🇹🇭Thailand Travel Vlog

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 มิ.ย. 2024
- In today's Thailand travel vlog, we journey from Bangkok to Kanchanaburi for the first time, but only after getting caught in a massive downpour and missing our van.
Despite a few setbacks, we finally made it to our destination, and even though we had no real plan, we were excited to check out Thailand's third-largest province and learn more about its harrowing past.
Once settled into our homestay, we grabbed Thai food from a local restaurant before finally visiting the Death Railway Museum just before they closed.
Afterward, we took time to reflect on what we had learned at Wat Thaworn Wararam Cemetery and the Kanchanaburi War Cemetery before returning to our homestay for the evening.
Our first day in Kanchanaburi went differently than planned, but it will be a day we remember forever.

In the bus terminal building, they didn't yell to you guys at all. They just said the name of bus-bound provinces out loud in front of the bus ticket booths. ❤❤
We realized that a few minutes later. 🫣😅
They did not yell at you guys. They yelled "Ratchaburi" which is a destination if you want to go to Ratchaburi you have to go toward her. Another destination Nakorn Pathom. They speak very loud so that their customers know where to get the ticket to that particular destinations. It is a kind of marketing ways like Japanese Izakaya.
That actually makes a lot of sense now that we know, but it can be a bit jarring when you have no idea what is going on. We thought we trespassed or something. 😅
ตอนนี้ประเทศของเรากําลังจะเปลื่ยนแปลงครั้งใหญ่ ต้องขออภัยเรื่องทางข้ามม้าลาย แล้วเราจะปรับปรุงให้ดีขึ้น
No need to apologize! 😊
Such good attitudes !! Love watching your travels
Thank you so much! We're happy you enjoy our videos. 🥰♥️
As an Australian I was particularly moved emotionally visiting Kanchanaburi and the cemetery, museum and Hell Fire Pass. I loved this vlog thank you for the respect you showed when visiting those places. Such a lovely place to visit.
Oh wow, we can imagine! Such an emotional, heavy past.
We really enjoyed learning about the events here and at Hellfire Pass. We never knew we were as into history, let alone war history, as we seem to be. It was absolutely a place we feel should be highlighted.
Thank you for watching. Have you seen our video on Hellfire Pass? I’ll leave the link here in case you are interested. ☺️

ผมเป็นคนไทยและรู้สึกเสียใจกับรถ ที่ประเทศไทยไม่เคารพกฎจราจรคนข้ามถนน ตรงทางม้าลาย
The roads can be a bit overwhelming at times, but we’ve been able to manage alright. The road system in our home country is bad too. 😅
Once again your video made me happy to watch. Thank you.🥰🥰
We’re glad! Thanks for watching. 😊
Nice experience 😘 Have a great trip in my country guys🥰
Thanks so much! ☺️🙏 We are having an amazing time. So much to see and do. Thank you for watching! 🥰🥰
great video,nice one..I've been a few times to kanchan i found best way is by train from thon buri BKK ..fantastic scenery..then from kanchan to nam tok...and onto Erawan falls (dont miss it)
Thanks for watching! We loved Kanchanaburi and regret not going to Erawan Falls. Next time! 😅
Bangkok, Thailand is a really beautiful place. On their vlog they looked so happy and the food in the video looked so delicious.
We are always happy to be in Thailand! ☺️ Even when things don’t go to plan, we find a way to enjoy our time.
Nice video 😊🥰
Thank you! 🤗☺️
We are so sorry about crossing roads in Thailand. Hopefully, we are improving about it soon.
It’s not a problem at all! ☺️🙏 Thank you for watching!
@@mikeandashley thích kênh của bạn lúc nào cũng để tiếng việt nam cho dù ở Thái Lan

@@NOPPARAT23 oh hello 😉 Thank you
Glad you guys found it a help! It’s an awesome place. We had a great time and barely scratched the surface of this amazing province. Have fun! ✌️☺️
ผมติดตามและไล่ดูทุกคลิปแล้วคับ....ทั้งสองคนสุดยอดมาก....
Thank you so much for following along and supporting us! We couldn’t do this without you. 🥰
Pad Kraprao that you have, Thai people usually order 2 plates of rice and share that. This is why you've gotten a very big portion. If you ordered rice with Pad Kraprao on top, it would be around 50 baht. What you ordered was Pad Kraprao (80 baht) and a plate of rice (10 baht). You will get too big portion for one.
Ohhhh, good to know! We thought the portion was rather large by Thai standards. Makes sense now. 🤣
That doesn't make it a bad day you have to have a better outlook. You will enjoy yourselves better the rain soon stops and see how quickly it dries and what a lovely smell. see the good in the world.
Agreed! We didn’t let it get us down. Thanks so much for watching. 😊🤗
Hi.Mike & Ashley.Have fun in Thailand from bay area San francisco
Thank you so much! How is the weather in San Francisco this time of year? Thanks for watching! 🥰🥰
Thanks 👍👍🤟
Hello again. 👋☺️
11:18 Sawasdee ka 🙏🏻💗 Hello, I'm very sorry to both of you that it rained heavily on the day you set up your journey. Even though there were obstacles, you guys got through it. and still able to continue traveling Thank you for coming to Thailand. and thank you for eating Thai food And thank you for sharing a good clip.💗💗
The rain can’t stop us! We’re just trying to share the real about our travels. Thank you for watching! We really appreciate the support and are happy to share our travels with you. We’re so happy to eat Thai food any chance we get! It’s so delicious. 🥰😋
สวัสดีครับ
Hello! ☺️🤗
เที่ยวกาญจนบุรีให้สนุกนะครับ
Thanks so much! 🥰
สวัสดีคะ ❤❤❤❤
ไปกาญจนบุรี ล่องแพรแม่น้ำคาสสิคกินอาหารชมวิวสวยๆครับ
We didn’t have the chance to go rafting, but it sounds fun. Next time!
Sai Yok Waterfall is one of the most breath-takingly beautiful waterfalls. Highly receommend to visit if you are in Kanchanaburi. However, currently it is rainy season, and it makes it may be dangerous if there is a hard rain. If you go there, should be becareful and follow the officer's instructions.
We had a chance to go, but we were a bit pressed for time. We’re kicking ourselves now that we missed it. 😅 Thanks for watching!
@@mikeandashley maybe next time ^ ^ Enjoy your time in Thailand ka.
Thank you! ☺️🙏
5:49 easier way to pronounce Khwae Yai river is thinking of "square" without s and r sound. 💪🏼
Oh thanks! That does help. ☺️
I’m Buying ya lunch !❤
Thanks so much! 🥰
@@mikeandashley did ya get it?
First time doing it, not sure if it goes to ya or TH-cam
We did not! Just checked to make sure. It’s kind of a split difference form what we can tell, we get the majority, but they take a cut as well, which makes sense. ☺️
if you have time, Erawan waterfall might be another option but be careful of the heat.⛰⛰⛰
We wish we would have been able to make it to Erawan. It looks beautiful. Next time!
,good qluck. thailand
Thank you!
Songtaw song= 2 ,taw = row of bench in a pickup car >>> two row of bench in a pickup car (taxi)😅😅😅 ❤❤❤
Oh wow! We never put that together before! 😅 Thanks for sharing. 🤗
👩❤️👨👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍🇺🇸👍👍👍
☺️☺️🤗🤗🥰🥰
เขาร้องบอกสถานีต่อไปครับผม
🤗☺️
Sorry for your inconvenience, it's coming to the rainy season in my country till September.
No inconvenience. We expected the rainy season and are just happy we’re still here! 😊
I miss the beautiful resort in Kanchanaburi called Jungle Rafts.
That sounds amazing! We weren’t able to stay but would love to next time.
The taxi from bus terminal to hotel is about 100 baht only.
Good to know. Thanks! 😊
ฝนฉ่ำๆ55555
It was good. 🌧️ Came out of nowhere! 😂
Have u ever been Isan .. Northeastern... Khon kaen city 🤟?? Have a safe ur travel 🙏🙏
Not yet, but hopefully one day soon! 🥰
ขอให้สนุกกับการเที่ยวในเมืองไทยนะจ๊ะ แล้วคุณสองคน จะทึ่งกับสิ่งที่คุณได้เห็นและพบเจอ แค่คุณเปิดใจจ้า
Thanks so much! Thailand is a magical place.
Normally Kanchanaburi always hotter than another province in Thailand .
We did notice it being hotter, but to be honest, it’s just hot in general everywhere haha. We have experienced heat in the US, but nothing like this! 🥵
Hellfire pass👍 … white elephant mountain peak trail 👍… Pilok old mine, Glen’s house, at etong village at Thailand-Myanmar border. 👍
Thanks so much! Hellfire Pass will be our next vlog! We rode the train there and back. It was epic!
@@mikeandashley Etong village is 24 hours mist covered in Rainy and cold seasons. Auntie Glen’s house ( Somsak mining) should be one night there (need 4x4 p/u truck hiring to ascend/descend), good vibes with her nice cakes and cookies. The white elephant peak trail is unseen destination with spectacular view along the way, with overnight camping experience at top. Opening Nov-Feb, requires booking at Thong Pa Pume (district) national park office, due to limited no. of tourist per day. If you take north to Sangkhlaburi (district), you ll experience the “Mon” tribe villagers and their way of life a long the river. Good vibes at the Mon bridge too.
That sounds amazing! If we’re here during the right time, we will have to check it out! Thank you so much for the information. ☺️ You know so much about the area. ☺️
❤❤❤❤❤❤
🥰🥰🥰 Thank you! 🥰🥰🥰
🥰🥰🥰 Thank you! 🥰🥰🥰
👍🤟🥰😘
🥰🥰🤗🤗
เท่าที่ผมติดตามคุณและชมvdoของคุณตลอดมาในการท่องเที่ยวในประเทศไทย..ผมคิดว่า..คุณทั้ง2ได้ท่องเที่ยวในประเทศไทยครบ3ฤดูแล้ว หนาว, ร้อน, และฝน😜😊👍💐🌿🌹
We have! We prefer the cold season. 😅
Chắc ngủ nướng sao lo
We do sleep in pretty often, but it was the rain that caught us up here.
There are not yelling at you.!!! They try to convince you to buy the ticket from their booths.
Doh! Now we know. 😅
@@mikeandashley Not only foreigner but Thai too.
🤗☺️
They shouted to customer Ratchaburi province and Nakhon Pathom province
It makes so much more sense. We’ve noticed that it happens at all bus and ferry terminals. This was the first time we’d experienced 😅😂. Thanks for clarifying! 🙏☺️
They did not yell at you.
We realized this, but it took as a little while. 😅
The ncounter want your business, calling out loud not shouting.
Yeah, it took us a minute to realize that. 😅🤣
What state are you in the US?
We are from North Carolina. ☺️
@@mikeandashley 👍🇻🇳
🙋🤗☺️ 👩❤️👨🥰☺️
Hello again! 👋☺️ Thanks for watching!
Be prepared for the heat in Kanchaburi guys. It's one of the hottest province in Thailand.
It was very hot! 🥵 We loved our time there though and hope to return to visit Erawan Falls. 😊
คุณไปกี่จังหวัดแล้วในประเทศไทยครับ
So far, we’ve visited nine provinces. 🤗 But you’ll have to wait till the vlogs come out to see where! 😉
ปัญหาใหญ่ที่สุดของประเทศไทยคือ รถโดยสาร ตามต่างจังหวัด แค่คิดถึงคนหรือชาวต่างชาติที่ ต้องพึ่งพาการโดยสาร แทบไม่มีเลย
The lack of transportation can be a bit frustrating, but we’ve had great experiences overall with Thailand’s transportation system (especially Bangkok). We’re bound to get unlucky every once in a while and that was our day for it apparently. 😅🤣
go get a motorbike to tour around. 100 Baht per day. ask your hotel .
We love cruising around on motorbikes. We’ve never seen them that cheap though! Typically we pay 250฿-300฿. 👀
So sad
Very! ❤️
ประเทศไทยก้อมีเรื่องแย่อีกมากมายและไม่ได้รับการแก้ไขสักทีต้องรอรัฐบาลชุดใหม่ต้องขอโทษด้วยขอให้มีความสุขกับการเดินทางครับ
Thanks so much! We’re having a great time. 😊
Good luck 🤡
Thanks! 🥰
What they shouted in front of the ticket office was Names of provinces that are destinations Which is the name of the province that the passenger wants to go to
There are both government and private bus companies.
which has been yelling like this for a long time In fact, for Thai people, when we hear shouts, we will immediately know that hey, my destination. Tickets can be purchased right here.
may seem shocking to tourists But those ticket salesmen do things that Thai people generally find travel channels easier.
Makes sense! We’ve seen it a lot now. We had just never experienced anything like that before 😂😅.
Now hopefully we can help other foreigners not look silly when they walk in! 😂😂
Thanks for your comment and for watching! 🤗
@@mikeandashley Kanchanaburi in the summer is very hot. This year the temperature reaches 40+ degrees.
But it is also a province with abundant forests.
No wonder during World War 2. European prisoners of war endured the harsh climate here, and at that time there was also a very high concentration of malaria-carrying mosquitoes. and here i think It played a part in many deaths during that time.
It did. So many. We learned all about it in our trip to Hellfire Pass. So hard to fully comprehend.
@@mikeandashley I searched for information on Thai hospitals about malaria patients on the border of Kanchanaburi and other nearby provinces with a 370-kilometre border.
including nearby patients from Myanmar who came for treatment in 2013
It had 9196 infections and 6 deaths.
Most of them happen to people who like to explore the forest and lack protection.
Kanchanaburi is famous for its forests, gems, wildlife, World War II gold and malaria.
This is one aspect of Thai tourism that does not alert tourists.
which I don't think is correct.
That’s nuts! 😱
