Spending the PERFECT 48 Hours in London **Travel Vlog**
In this London travel vlog, I'm trying to spend the perfect 48 hours in the English capital. I have to, or it's game over! 😅
This is not a weekend in London where we rushed around Big Ben and Buckingham Palace - we wanted a proper city break focusing on good food, fun experiences and not just the "top things to do in London".
Did we succeed? Let me know what you think in the comments below - I hope you can use some of the London travel tips in the video ✌️
We stayed at this hotel that I highly recommend: destinationwellknown.com/link/hoxtonholborn-yt

Day Trip to Maya Bay & Paradise Thai Islands (Honest Review)
zhlédnutí 615Před měsícem
I took a day trip from Ao Nang in Krabi to the famous Maya Bay. Was it worth it? 🇹🇭 The tour I was on was a so-called early bird speedboat tour. The idea is that if you get up early, you'll beat the crowds - I'm not sure if we succeeded, but the tour was still worth it, in my opinion. There were a few sour notes, though, as I mentioned in the video, but as I said - we were pretty unlucky on thi...
Is This the Best Hotel in Thailand? SANTHIYA KOH YAO YAI
zhlédnutí 1,6KPřed měsícem
Santhiya Koh Yao Yai is a 5-star hotel in Thailand that I've stayed at twice. So when I was in this region of Thailand, I had to book into their private pool villa and share the experience with you guys. As mentioned in the video, I paid $357 per night to stay in the ocean-view pool villa, which is pretty good value for money. Compared to what you pay for normal hotels in EU capitals, it's extr...

I m going to Copenhagen in July and I only have 18 hrs to spend. Is it vetter to stay in city center or Nyhavn? Thanks❤
Nyhavn is actually just a small part of the city centre - I would say that “anywhere in the city centre” is a good bet for you. Have you seen my “where to stay in Copenhagen” video? ✌️
@@destinationwellknownthank you very much for your help & reply❤
I am enjoying your videos and they are very informative! Thank you very much! My first time to Copenhagen will be coming up for 3 1/2 days near the City Central Station. Arriving early in the morning on May 26th and leaving in the evening on May 29th to Oslo. Haven't seen if you have videos on Oslo , but will be checking! Architecture, statues, and fountains are my main interest! So, I have the Palace, Castle, and churches on my list to see. The Round Tower is definitely on my list for the view of the city! The City Card is for only 2 days, but also noticed it includes a lot of attractions. I've also watched videos about the On Off Buses with 3 day tickets and trying to determine which route to go to save on the walking. I'm debating staying in the Copenhagen area, because there is so much to see. But, the amount of walking I save, I may be able to use the 3rd day for "Frederiksborg Castle" or "Malmo and Lund Cathedral". Then the half morning before leaving to walk around the city center for stuff I did not get a chance to see.
Im flying to copenhagen tomorrow evening. Appreciate the advice a lot!
Thank you - have a nice trip 🇩🇰
I'm just hoping I don't get lost! 😂
How long is the guided tour? It says Guided Tour, Free Time of 7 hours so I can't tell how many hours the guided part is. Thanks.
It kind of depends on the group you're with, to be honest, but I think it took around 4,5 hours when I filmed this video.
Very good intro of London! ❤
Thank you 🙌🇬🇧
The biggest scam in Copenhagen is, of course, the Little Mermaid. But you make an even bigger mistake if you want to take a bus there, rather than walk or bike there.
True!
There ar plenty beaches at olbia ......
Not really in the city itself though?
1 o’clock....early for a pint....😂😂
🤠🫣🍻
Thanks so much for the videos i got straight into the city from the airport using your tips and now im looking for places to stay. Very helpful.
Thank you - I'm glad you found the video useful 🤝
Hi Chris, I'm going to Copenhagen next week and I'm trying to figure out if there is city bike rental system. I think you mentioned Donkey bikes in another video. Anyways, what do you think is the best bike rental system or shop in Copenhagen?
Hiya! I haven't used Donkey, and tbh I don't know where it'd be best to rent a bike in Copenhagen 😬 It's actually something I advise against if you're not used to biking - because it can be pretty hectic and dangerous to ride a bike in Copenhagen if you're not familiar with the rules of the road. Sorry ✌️
great video
Thanks!
Great video my friend !!! ps Strawberries 8,50 pounds / pot ??? really ????? Strawberries in Greece cost 3,90€/kg !!!!!!.. and you can melt chocolate ontop ... so .. visit Greece !!!!!! 🙂

I would rather see the true mermaid😂😂😂. Way up Copenhagen guide 🤙
Have 8 hours layover in Copenhagen and it will be at night time. How is Copenhagen night life? Is there anything I can do at that time of night? Thanks
Sure! What day is this - Friday/Saturday or..? And are you looking for a club experience or just a cool bar to get a few beers?

I don't think The Little Mermaid is a scam... exactly? It's just... way overhyped for what it is. Which is a small sentimental statue.
Overrated tourist trap might be a better wording 🤠
@@destinationwellknown It just might XD
Thanks Chris. This is a great help. We'll be there July 2024. Thanks again.
Thank you!
I really liked Amager strand. I just found it rather pleasant
Nice place in the summertime 🤝
Perhaps the little mermaid is best enjoyed with the aid of psychedelic drugs ;-)
Hahaha perhaps!
I will have a week (7 nights) to stay on Sardinia. There is so much to see around the coast of the entire island. Is it reasonable to try and drive around the island for a week's stay and see the sights? If so, any suggested locations to base myself as I travel around the island? Thanks so much for such outstanding helpful information!
Thanks for your kind words! It's a tricky question. I would narrow it down and maybe book 2-3 hotels in different areas. Sardinia IS a pretty big island, so I would be afraid I was putting too much on the itinerary if I were to drive around the whole island in just 7 days. I would probably rather ensure I got the most "bang for my buck" in the chosen areas instead of trying to see it all. Does that make sense? ✌️
Need to get to wake up hotel Bernstoffsgrade - best way please
Train to Central St and then just walk the last 5 min 🤝
Loving your videos, thankyou sir. We're visiting Copenhagen next weekend and I feel like a local already 🙂
Thanks mate, that’s great to hear 🙌
Voco at haymarket is terrible. This hotel has the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced, the lady at the desk was for lack of a better word a complete bitch the moment my girlfriend went to talk to her, straight up refusing to bring blankets and pillows to our room as well as saying ‘if we had any right now I wouldn’t give them to you’ and even as we were leaving to check into a new hotel, she said to her coworker loudly ‘ew what do THEY want’. Absolutely disgusting human of an employee
I am still going to see her :)
Each to their own - have a nice trip to Copenhagen 🇩🇰
Im an Italian born Sri Lankan that lives in Milan and I can confirm you that the metro in Copenhagen is managed by Milan ATM transport company and the trains in metro are the same of the M4 and M5 line in milan
Cool! Thanks for sharing 🤝
Thanks for the explanation of the metro. I followed the instructions and made it to my hotel without a problem. Even took the mandatory selfie😊. The best part of this video is that I am familiar with the metro station map on day one of vacation and feel comfortable going wherever I want now for the rest of my stay. Thanks!
Thanks a lot for your comment - I LOVE that the mandatory selfie is now a thing 😆
This is awesome content!
Thanks a lot 🙌
Bloomsbury is my favorite area.Russell Square is a lovely part of the neighborhood.
I like it a lot there too!

thanks for the great vids (just watched your cph airport to city centre vid too!) how is Østerport in regards of location? is it safe? is it easy / expensive to get to tourist hotspots in the city centre? tak :)
Thanks! Østerport is probably one of the most posh places in Copenhagen, so it's incredibly safe, and the connection to the rest of the city is great.
Thank you! 🙏
Copenhagen sounds more easy to visit with your video post and advices ! Stay there 6 nights first day of july 2024
Thank you so much! Have a great trip 🙌🇩🇰
Hi, I'm plannnig a mother daughter trip to Europe in September. With our final stop in London. I feel like I'm in information overload. And not getting anywhere. Thank you for your insightful video. Can you recommend someplace to stay for first time visitors, not looking to break the bank i hotel accommodations, but what to stay in a nice safe place, and still take in the sights with walking and minimal tub time spent. Safe and not so far away that it a task getting back and forth. We will be flying into Heathrow. Any guidane you can give will be greatly appreciated. Including where I should absolutely not consider. I'm so confused with travel overload. Thank you in advane for your honest and immediate response.
Hiya! Sure! Have you seen my guide over on my website? In that guide, I'm talking about 7 of the best areas to stay in London and I'm recommending hotels in different price ranges: destinationwellknown.com/where-to-stay-london/ From what you're saying, I'd suggest looking at hotels in the Bankside area (number 6 in my article). There are some excellent hotels, it's within walking distance of Central London, and the hotels here are usually cheaper than on the other side of the river. Have a nice trip to London 🇬🇧
I love Cyprus❤
