Thank you so much for all the support this year, it means more than you know! I hope everyone has an amazing Christmas and new year! 🎅🏼🎄
Here’s to 2024 and a lot more adventures 😎 all the best ❤️
Does this work if I already have a revolut account?
Hey. I recommend you to visit Porto in Portugal. it is a realy amazing town. i fellt in love with it a couple years ago. maybe you also like to visit this week the christmasmarket in Germany, Siegburg. It is a Medival one and realy charming. Siegburg is right beside of the Cologne Airport. Easy to reach.
@@0CentralMedia0no this is for new referrals
🤞 all signed up! Thanks for the great content this year 😊
Revolut have the tendancy to give you a few pennies to pay off a direct debit then lock your account until you have cleared it off and then charge you more for it. Don't trust them.
Love how honest the easyJet staff were saying Ryanair were cheaper!
How honest was that dude at the ryanair desk though. 50 quid cheaper on the app pal 😂
They will probably get fired if their bosses watch this
@@callumtyler686 especially all the bad rap Ryanair get! All the staff at the airport were great, which again you see so many stories of airport staff being the opposite (though I’ve only ever experienced lovely airport staff)
@@warrentanyaradzwachishirig8176 hopefully not, they were kind and helpful- so hopefully that works in their favour
in general they were right, but on a spontaneous book it would have bin better to look up the cheapeast flight from easyjet as well. Booking flight spontaneous also can be really cheap, when the load factor is low.
The issue of not booking in person made me think how interesting a 'Travel Without Internet' video would be.
Such a good idea
We should put him in a boat blindfolded and let him go and see where he ends up😂
Good idea, I still like to do a lot face to face and speak in person coz I hate using the internet and get nervous speaking on the phone, I’m so bloody old fashioned haha
Just don't bring your phone ... even more interesting. Get lost the way to the airport 🤣🤣🤣
I love this idea
Only Simon Wilson could come accross one of the oldest and most famous theme parks in the world thinking it was “just a Christmas market”. Classic.
He has literally no general knowledge.
It is bonkers to be fair given all the guy does is travel haha
And seeing a rollercoaster shouldn't be surprising even if it was a temporary Christmas carnival rather than a permanent amusement park; the ones in London and Hong Kong have them.
@@passengersplace Hamburg has it too.
I was thinking the exact same like how tf do you not know where you are and how iconic it is!!
Only Simon can make a 25-minute advertisement highly interesting! Wonderful video. I can't even imagine how much work, time, and creativity go into these.
I’m beginning to think Simon is the CEO of Revolut 😂
First time I've seen this guys vlogs and it's just like one long advertisement. Well played, but not for me thx.
I LOVED it when "Honey" came on again for Simon's flight to Copenhagen. That's old school and nice to hear again!
Classic
Loved that too - need it in every video
I miss it from every video of late. That old intro added that something special to each video
I got the feeling Kyle didn't want to be getting on the train with Simon 😂
Little does he know how much of a legend Simon is
Kyle will be going to Sweden if hes on platform 1...Interesting :)
@@eneqvistgoing to see his Swedish mrs huh
@@AI-Records24lucky for some
@@AI-Records24 Not Swedish
Simon lives the spontaneous "get up and travel!" life we all dream about 🤟
You should definitely make this a series Simon. The 12 flights of Christmas has a nice ring to it!
Next do most expensive flight and hotel and transport for the day, give the people what they want SW
and use skyscanner
What a top lad. I met Simon a few months back in a car dealership in Dubai, recognized the accent straight away. He is the same off camera as on, and that's what makes these videos so great 🙏
Happy days mate
Is his side gig selling cars? Gotta make ends meet any way you can when you're a TH-camr.
Had a bloody awful day today, nothing better to cheer me up then seeing a Simon Wilson upload.
Hope you have a good night mate 💪🏼
big gay
what is wrong with being gay mikenewbold?
it is not gay but why would u say that.
I know how you feel Tom, just remember that after rain comes sunshine
Hope tomorrow is better for you
"What is swiss Raclette ?" .. "Oh, look at these hot dogs!" .. good ol' Simon as we know and love him 😂😂😂
Simon definitely ruined everyone in that dorm’s sleep with his snoring
He checked out 5 minute after so no worries😂
Best bet would be to use skyscanner and choose manchester to everywhere
Yeah either that or Google Flights
Simon this is the best suggestion for future use. I checked for Manchester, $19 to Santander, Spain
@@radicalnomad1 To be fair he booked a flight last minute and in the morning, his seat neighbor booked the same flight in advance for 25. And nighttime flights are usually cheaper too.
@@radicalnomad1looking for a comment about how the Ryan air guy was lying about the cheapest flight.....he looked like he was lying!!!
can’t believe he didn’t know to do that anyway given his travel experience. could’ve easily got a flight for £30 or less having searched on skyscanner
Can’t believe how many uploads Simon is giving us recently !! Normally months in between them!!! Hope this is a on going trend
Hope he doesn't burn himself out either!
I did this trip for my birthday back in 2018... flew in Sat am, got the train into the city, went to the Tivoli Gardens and rode that same rollercoaster. After seeing all of the sights, I flew home Sunday evening. Fun times 😊
I can I go with you on your next trip?
Imagine sleeping in a hostel and waking up seeing Simon Wilson in the room😂
😂
Nothing beats watch Simon on a Monday evening
That's the most number of staff willing to help I've ever seen at an airport.
Michael O Leary does not approve of this behaviour. 🛩
I’m impressed because the staff at Manchester Airport, with the exception of easyJet, are usually completely useless.
That or Big Simon is a bit of a local celebrity around MAN
Staff is usually always willing to help, just not always able to
I admire Simon's method of having no clue where he's going, how he gets there, where he's staying. I am definitely not that kind of person when it comes to travelling!
I’d join you lol
What a fun episode. Loved it. I love your free spirit and confidence. I never get tired of your videos.
Why is no one talking about how Simon thought the Tivoli was a Christmas market even though it is a amusement park😅
I was just here to say that. I'm like dude, it's Tivoli Gardens, one of the most famous parks in the world, it's the inspiration for Disneyland. 😂
Simon is so naive jesus christ
Simon is on the top of my list when it comes to TH-camrs I’d love to have a drink with. He has such a genuine personality, he’s real in a world where most people are fake.
He looks like type of person who would actually drink coffee with anyone xD
He lives about 5 mins from me never bumped into him
@@leightonjones8092never in the country is he
@@jakecook4816 nar I can see his apartment block from my house
@@jakecook4816Exactly dude literally makes travelling videos on TH-cam for a living not sure what that guys expecting 😂
Absolutely love your channel and your content brother…thank you for everything you do…please do more of these cheap flights videos..love these..cheers from Melbourne Australia
Love watching you Simon.. you, bald and Ben are quality. Always bring the best video's to us online.. all the best for the new year mate... Hopefully more videos next year please
Was a pleasure meeting you mate! Made that travel so much better👍🏻
are you kyle
@@qatari4nc Yes, I am :)
but you seemed so glad to get rid of him at the train station ;-)
@@anthonydowling3356projection is a personal problem
@anthonydowling3356 No, not at all! Was just happy to have had the experience in general! He's honestly such a great lad
I was in Copenhagen just 2 weeks ago myself. Absolutely stunning architecture. Also enjoyed Expresso House with the Christmas Latte and the burgers from Gasoline Grill. Simon definitely get yourself another flight anywhere!
Love how personal you are, wishing us all a lovely Christmas ! Loving the more regular uploads !
As a Dane living in Copenhagen, i can only say, that your first impressions are spot on.
Buildings are nice.
Clean streets.
Fairly expensive.
Few smiling people, even a tad rude.
Nice video. You earned a new subscriber!
The ppl he spoke to seemed friendly enough once he got out of the train station ( in my view)
Anyone else have notifications on and just automatically stop and watch the new uploads ❤I love this guy this is how humanity should be
Yep, couldn't click that notification bar quick enough 😅
hahaha "traveling is so expensive now..." also... goes on the first rollercoaster he sees. Love it :p
dude I saw you in some of bald's videos a few years ago but never checked out your own stuff till now. Just wanted to say it's cool to see how friendly curteous and appreciative you are to people. Good luck
love your channel, love the excursions you go on, love the content and your commentary. I've been following you for awhile and love all your travels. hope you keep up the good spirits and fun and travels. sayin HI from ohio love you man and hope you keep up the travels and amazing adventures. Merry Christmas Simon!
love the vid, the Honey tune brings back so many memories of top simon wilson vids. Thanks Simon
I travel on the cheap a lot and use hostels most of the time. When Simon entered the dorm with everyone sleeping, it gave me chills as I’ve done that many times myself before! 😂
I couldn't do that now! Glad I did that when I was young
Where you find them?
I love these type of videos you do. Just going into the unknown and adventure is what I love about traveling.
Merry Christmas to you, Simon! Always love watching your videos. You and Harald should make another video soon, that would be mega. Thanks for all you do!
How about travelling to peoples last vacation destinations? Ask someone where they spent their last holidays and go there. And if you want to make a series out of it, ask another person in the first vacation location where they spent their last holidays. cheers mate 💯🤝🏽🫶🏼
Simon your solo vids are the best! Love your interactions with everyone.
Love watching your videos. You make travelling look fun and makes me want to do random trips and see what is out there
Love this video.
More of these.
I know its been done on some channels, but you can use that website to search for anywhere and cheapest price. Then do it a few days in a row and just see where you end up.
I like the angle of cheap trip but still willing to spend a bit to see what is going on
Thanks for the content Simon always amazing! Would love if you did another location from Copenhagen.
It's mad how everything is online now, probably be impossible to get a decent cheap flight now at airport even standby is probably online now.
I love how spontaneous it still was I'd love to go to Copenhagen myself. That Christmas market looks amazing far better then the ones you'd get in UK.
You definitely inspire me to travel more. I think next year I'd like to go more places. That wasn't bad for last minute price wise.
Thanks Simon great as always😊
That’s coz it’s actually a permanent theme park called Tivoli gardens that happened to have a Christmas market there, a bit like having a Christmas market at Alton Towers, I don’t think he knew that 😂
As someone who really likes Cologne (I live near it in the Netherlands) and who wants to explore Copenhagen, it's good to hear what the person at the desk of the hostel said. Really want to go there now. I also don't think people are unfriendly, they are just a little reserved and not too smiley, but they take the time to answer and explain stuff. In the end words speak louder than niceties ;).
That hostel seems really decent for the price!
As for the food; If you'd gotten a simple meal outside of that market this would have been an ultra cheap trip! Worth it though, pretty lights.
Mate it's so refreshing to watch Yr videos....Yr full of life and energy
Would love to see you do a challenge across Europe in 2024 (from Portugal to Romania or something like that). Maybe something similar like the Monopoly board you did in the US. It’s always a pleasure to watch your videos, Simon. Happy Holidays!
Watch also his no money challenges.
this should definitely be the new series. even the most expensive to places to go
Absolutely love these types of vids
Love the spontaneous trip. Please post more videos like this where you dont know where you're going!
A new Simon Wilson video on a Monday evening, that's always a good thing in my eyes, plus the return of 'Honey' at 08:29. Happy days 👍🙂
Went to the Carragher Xmas show/auction in Liverpool on Saturday but you had moved on to Wrexham by the time the show started ☹️
I've missed that tune too! 😊😊😊
We LOVE your videos (my wife and I) but it was very amusing to hear you repeatedly describe Tivoli as a "Christmas Market". Happy holidays to you, Simon!
Love this idea Simon, another spin on this, you could book the cheapeast flight in advance, and then try to find the cheapest hotel food etc like you did. But with the foreplaning of the flight. Merry Christmas
Oh this made my day, when the lady at the easyjet check-in desk staff said ''Probably @ryanair'' when you asked which would be the cheapest to get. 🤣🤣
I love these videos Simon. They make my day!
Only recently found your channel, and I stayed up all night yesterday watching the continent challenge and travel monopoly, man your videos keeping me awake I cannot stop watching them. Your always so positive, humble and kind, no wonder everyone loves interacting with you..awesome dude bonus Liverpool fan YNWA
The Mexico trip was sooo funny. Be sure to watch it.
Defo need another video like this mate! Love this kind of content
Nothing better than a Simon Wilson video!! Of course we all want to see the next cheap travel leg!! Your videos are absolute top notch! Thank you for the great and creative content!!
Tivoli Gardens is not a Christmas market, it's open all year round and serves primarily as a theme park. I haven't been there since many many years ago when I was a child visiting Denmark, but that's how I remember it. Great video as always!
Its not open all year round. Its closed right now. But it is open in the sommer and around halloween and Christmas, plus other select times
@@deskeff Fair enough, thanks for the clarification. I'm not Danish but this is how I remember it back when i visited
Simon rocking up to an airport and booking a ticket is reminding how travel used to be pre-internet/travel agents for last minute flights.
Yes continue the series love your videos ❤
I clicked on the video to watch and did not expect to see my country as the destination 😂 Was pretty surprised, but it was also fun!
Tivoli is a theme park and is mostly open during like spring and summer, but at halloween and christmas time, they open up with like seasonal decor and such! (:
Let’s go! Would love to travel and do a video with you Simon! Keep crushing it bro
Thank for visiting Copenhagen. The danes are a little bit reserved and introverted - but at the same time the most open people in Scandinavian.
In the summer Danes tend to be more open and outgoing. Perhaps because of the extra vitamin D 😅
Have a great Christmas, Simon. Looking forward to follow you in 2024
I love this kind of videos cant wait !
Would Love to see another one of these
Simon inspired me to go solo travelling in January, thank you!
Always nice to see a video of your every Monday it juts make the start of the week much better , happy new year !! 🎊🎆🎈
Love this, definitely need to do more! 🤞🏻
Fun fact
Simon said "fair play" 27 times through out this video 😂
Fair play
Lol
As a travel agent myself, I know, you can’t just search for anywhere what is cheapest. The airline systems don’t work that way. You have to go one by one via date, in the system for departure and destination…. To see the fares
Easier/better would be searching Manchester to Anywhere on Google flights for the given day
Go to skyscanner and search anywhere from your chosen airport. Pretty simple.
Great stuff simon more of this please
i love this random trips that u make, actually u motivate me to travel alone so it was my first time to Portugal alone and it was awsome
I’m struggling atm in life and watching your videos brings me some comfort and it’s like watching a friend! ❤
Not going to lie it shows how BAD our public transport is in the UK compared to other places it should never have been privatised! Great video again Simon!
It’s actually not privatised right now, so i think you don’t really know what you’re talking about and don’t actually really understand the problem
you want communist transport system lol
@user-mf5ue6rc5n you shouldn't use words when you don't know what they mean.
Nonsense, try going out of Europe, public transport is terrible or non existing. 😂
@@xScazza what ?
Can’t lie I am loving these regular uploads man ! Always loved your stuff but only ever use to see vids every few months , loving the grind ! Happy xmas buddy
Merry Christmas Simon thanks for another year of great videos
Simon, what we would all love to see you enjoying your self in the Maldives, stress free.
How boring!
Simon learning that you have to book flights in advance to get them cheap lmao
That would be awesome Simon go for it great video keep them coming mate. Merry Christmas mate and a prosperous New Year keep the bangers coming!!!!
Keep em coming Simon
Would be interesting to compare this with the cheapest package holiday you can find
Knowing how much Simon spends travelling, i doubt these are the cheapest flight going😂
Made my day a new Simon adventure!
We would absolutely love another video like this!
FINALLY you've come to my hometown, Copenhagen 😀👌
Skyscanner will bring up all those different companies and cheapest flights mate 👍🏻
So excited to hear the classic traveling song make a return. Fantastic adventure as always Simon. Happy Holidays 👊🏻
Finally you are coming back to Denmark Simon :D
Tivoli is called the old garden Tivoli, its the oldest hemepark in denmark, its beautiful and they really shine it up during christmas and halloween :)
I hope that you have enjoyed your stay in my country, love your videos :)
Love it. Of course we wanna see more
I'm looking forward to more of your travels.
Love watching you chatting to everyone, “what a guy!”
...please continue your journey bro as I;m disabled and have lived vicariously through your videos for years. Thanks Simon
An idea could be going to the airport and looking at all the departures on the tv screen and whichever is first/last or whatever on the screen book a trip to that destination! Love your videos, keep up the good work🇨🇦
Have a great Xmas Simon! Loving the content recently.
I think as the videos go on, Simon gets more and more welsh. Its brilliant! Another cracking video from Mr Wilson!
Always a pleasure to watch your videos, Simon. Gutted when I miss you passing through old Manny 🤪 All the best 💪
I like watching Simon's videos. Always brightens my day.
Monday evening with my dinner and your videos are the best mate! You absolute legend! Love it all. Where go next? Cheap challenge? 😂 gotta one those hostel stays haha
Simons positive energy is so contagious and refreshing
Absolutely brilliant video, Simon! Keep them coming!
