Without a doubt, one of the most stunningly beautiful trails in Laos to get lost on..
Claire & Jeremy GOT US LOST.. For Riel! | Back roads & Hmong villages E26
Taking a very rural back road from Phaxai to Thaviang then into Xaysomboun, we find ourselves making wrong turns and the trail becoming very narrow as we start to wonder if we're going to make it out. This track follows a river which is the border between Xiengkhouang and Xaysomboun and those who use it only do so because they have to.. not once did we pass another car. In places, the road that narrow we had to walk the trail to make sure it continued.. an EPIC adventure! Enjoy

Todd as always a ripper of a episode! We thought it as more of a scenic loop than lost 😅 Jeremy was extremely uncertain we could get through, "one in a million chance" I think his words were. 🤔

Black and white photos are still my most cherished and I actually screen shoot them and share them to bring awareness to your channel and to depict the lives of Lao people. Thanks again, Todd.

The Troopy looked like it was not even breaking a sweat just happily crawling along on the rough trails saying is that all you got? Ha Ha. Very majestic views....kinda reminded be of the mountains in Krabi Thailand. Take care

@graemeaylward8313 3 ай бұрын

Wow Todd, that road was heart in mouth stuff, but Troopy managed it so well. The whole vlog had wonderful moments and that pristine jungle on the other side of the river made me realise how little of this is left throughout the world! A worrying thought as climate change seems to be taking hold over the last couple of years. The scenery was fantastic and the river added to the splendour and majesty of the mountains. Glad I wasn't in the truck that caused that road to give way! Claire and Jeremy are great travel companions and Mina gets on with them so well. Loved the way Mina decided to have a swim. As always, thanks for sharing ands those 26 episodes seem to have flown by. God bless the 3 of you 😀❤🙏

Wow! What a journey, absolutely loved the video. Has to be one of the favourites. Now we understand what they mean, when they say "Off the beaten track". Those sharp stone boulders must have been a worry. and wouldn't take much to slice through those expensive semi off road tyres. As for the narrow track hugging the river, there's only one option driving forwards, there's no chance of turning back. I'd love to do that journey myself. 👍🏼

Ventura Highway, my arse!!!😅 What a great drive. Looking forward to getting back to Thailand next week and driving out Fortuner around the countryside.shoukd get 15,000km done in the 5 months we have over there this year. I miss Laos though, have been there a few times and have a very good friend that I met over there years ago when he was a monk. Now he's a tour guide for Japanese visitors. Hope to catch up with him and his family one day soon. Keep up the great videos.😊 Great to see Mina surrounded by so much love. 🥰

@mitchhumlao 3 ай бұрын

It was a Quick Look at that gun the fellow was carrying. I'm no expert but because I have one, it looks like an SKS. The rifle version of the AK47. Been a while since I have seen one in Lao. Used to see them in the north on back roads. Usually the folks I have seen with them were Hmong. So much for the law.
