As a French, I would highly recommand to visit some french cities if you want to extend your tierlist to e or even f rating

The monks really saved the rating for Vientiane haha

Rainbolt: I hope people won't get offended Proceeds to shit on italian cities Me, an italian: Well that's a pretty accurate ranking

As an Estonian, I'm surprised how someone can prefer >30C weather. I personally like my cool breeze in the summer and not becoming a sweaty mess hahah. So I suppose you wouldn't like it here very much, although we do have great clean public transport and beautiful green scenery everywhere :,)

"I didn't sleep because played with other people. I felt very happy tonight" bro imma cry 😭thats adorable

3:59 I can't believe bro just said "Going to put Madeira in *Northern D Tier*"

I would absolutely love to see more videos on Bangkok or Thailand as a whole! I'm really happy to see you enjoy it here so much

Bangkok is easily my favourite city too. I've spent about 6 months in Thailand and there is something about that city that words can't really sum up and I'd absolutely love to see more of your perspective of the place. A good video suggestion: There's a district of BKK called Pradiphat; it's to the north of the city and it is totally off of the tourist trail. Most of central BKK is alive at all hours but Pradiphat Rd turns into a ghost town late at night, and I mean utterly dead. Almost to the point of apocalyptic. It's so eerie in contrast to the rest of the city and I only recently discovered why; it's because the Thais are convinced that it's haunted and they're too scared to go there at night. I'm pretty confident a video titled "Geoguessr player explores Bangkok's most haunted neighbourhood at night" would get a ton of clicks.

As an Italian, you should definitely check out Trieste, Bologna, Siena, and Torino. They will definitely be less touristy and more your vibe

as someone from SE asia, you enjoying weather above 30C is one of the wildest things ive ever heard

On my knees begging for you to upload the unreleased vlogs, I love how respectful and lowkey you are in them :) Bro crying rn you said one good thing about the UK my life is complete thank you brother 🙏

I'm an American that lived in Chiang Mai, then NYC, then finally visited Bangkok and it is now my life goal to move there too :) Trying to describe the magic of Bangkok is difficult. I like to tell people imagine a mega metropolis in the heart of the jungle. Vibrant light and heat and color and sounds and smells, incredible street food/vendor culture, a perfect and clean train system buzzing you from place to place, ancient and modern side by side, it just feels so alive.

thai here, so glad and very happy you enjoyed your time in thailand!! i was surprised to see bangkok at the highest as i've seen many foreigners prefer other thai cities over the capital, because it was very "noisy and humid" in bangkok, or something like that lol. either way, so happy you had a great time. best of luck to you if you are going to take thai classes. i find pronunciation kind of tough lol

As a Thai, im really happy that my home country gets such high rankings. I encourage you to learn the language and visit more places. Thailand will always welcome you!

I'm always interested in seeing more footage from your travel! Enjoyed hearing more about it here

From what I've gathered, whenever you feel like visiting Malaysia again (since we're next to Thailand anyway), based on evertything you've said in this video, you'll love the smaller cities and villages in Malaysia like Penang, Malacca, Ipoh, Terengganu, Kundasang (Malaysia's switzerland on Borneo), since they have most of the developed infrastructure and amenities you'd expect to get from KL but have way more of our identity and culture. Eventhough I've lived most of my life in KL, I'd tend to agree on yourperspective there, our 'real' identity & culture are usually found in hidden spots in KL, especially nowadays, and tbf KL never had much Malay history and culture anyway since it's relatively new city and was a (British) colonially crafted city. You'd find more culture outside of KL unfortunately, even most of our centuries old royalty centres aren't in KL, especially compared to say Bangkok, where the magnificent old royal palace is right in the city centre. But hey, at least our food is still the best and you seem to agree on that hehe. You're always welcome to come back :3 I'd even bring you around Malaysia if you don't find that weird lol. I'm just a huge geography nerd and would love to show people Malaysian hospitality :D

I've been skipping Bangkok for a decade cause something about being so popular and touristy and hot and humid just didn't go well in my mind lol But I finally went last April with my cousins, and I cannot believe it took me a decade to experience Bangkok. OMG I freaking loved BKK. Something about the city, the energy, the people, the vibes, the food, the things to see and do, etc., that makes me wanna go back again and again. I'm already planning to visit for 2 weeks next January. April was just too damn hot and humid, I felt like I was melting, and probably lost so much water weight from all the sweating lol Hopefully January isn't too bad. Just wanted to add. I also decided to visit the Philippines after my trip in Thailand, and I highly recommend it too!!! Awesome people, pretty good food, very easy to communicate since most have a high command of the English language(some do struggle but they 100% understand you), and it's not as humid compared to Thailand lol

the problem with italy's big city is that they're way too touristic, Naples is an hell to live into for italian as well

Bangkok at an S and Sevilla in A is a goated take. Based on your rankings, you gotta check out Taipei and/or Kaoshiung. Great food, lots of history, mountains on one side, beach on the other. Great public transit

So great to hear your unique travel perspectives! I hope your SE Asian travels take you to Philly at some point for some island hopping (Siargao, Cebu, Palawan, for example). Stunning nature, beach vibes are both chill and adventurous, and such nice, happy people.

Rainbolt could convince people he's been anywhere he knows that much. Maybe he hasn't even been to these places...

yoo trevor release them vlogs, I swear to god your vlogs about bangkok were so entertaining, interesting and relaxing to watch I am also curious about your story on that laotian road, would be really cool if we could see a video about that too

The images representing the cities already tell so much 😭😭

Bro said “Northern B Tier”

Napoli is rough and chaotic, but for its size it has a lot to offer in terms of historic sites. It's also surrounded by beautiful places like the islands of Ischia and Procida, and The Sunken City of Baiae from Ancient Roman times. Venice is an architectural wonder, a magical place of rich history and culture. What ruins the enjoyment of visiting these places is the overflowing of tourists. Peak season is almost anxiety-inducing. During low season, Venice is a totally different place. The city at night/dawn is unreal, feels like being in a dream (especially when it's foggy). Florence is an open air museum. Absolutely beautiful. Of course, during peak season you can't see ten feet in front of you. Rome is an another open air museum. Its historic centre alone, which is only a tiny part of the city, includes no less than 25000 points of environmental and archeological interest.

despite not having visited most of the cities you've mentioned, it is a fresh take and a good way for me to learn about each city i can plan to go to in the future. the choices you've made so far sound pretty good to me and very good at being fairly objective with your reasonings with why you do or dont like places as much. nothing rated overly extreme either. i realise it probably is because i think i also have similar values in what i want to experience.

Totally get you on Thailand. Such a beautiful country. Love the people, the historical architecture (incredible temples), the greenery/nature, and the food is so so good. Check out Siem Reap/Angkor Wat next time you're in SE Asia though - it's an amazing place.

Unironically if you ever come to brazil im here for a tour. I work remotely and I've travelled to 10 brazilian states already, still trying to visit all of 'em. Skipping favelas, Brazil should be as safe as anywhere else.

Vienna is often rated one of the most liveable cities on earth- it's also quite warm in summer. If you want to see the alps, you might wanna consider some Swiss / Austrian / Northern Italian Cities. Another one I can really recommend is some Greek island, if you wanna chill out for a bit.

Trevor, I've been a big fan and follower of your content for some time now, I would like to recommend that you visit Guatemala. Antigua is my favourite city I've ever been to, encircled by 3 volcanoes (one of which is very active, and you can hike to the top and watch it erupt) fantastic food, old world colonial style design with cobblestone streets, super friendly locals, incredible coffee, chocolate making lessons, and to top it all off it's close to the US! Tons of other amazing places to visit in guatemala as well like semuc champey and tikal. would love to see your take on it!

Italian slander made me sad. but, judging by the other placements, you seem to bo into chiller locations and those big cities can feel a bit oppressive; as you said yourself by mentioning Sicily, somewhere in the south would be more enjoyable (especially for the food damn)

First I was scared that this video was only the subtitled version, I was so glad when I read the description.

loved this - do more on your experiences traveling!

I can't explain how much appreciated I am to your love for bangkok. would love to see every videos about thailand

I need to see that unreleased vlog and any other content you have from your travels. You’re my favorite creator and I love your videos.

3:58 This guy really called high B tier "Northern B Tier"

Judging from what you said in the video. I think China could be the interesting location for you. Public transportation is good, extremely convenient lifestyle, good food, kind people, very diverse country, magnificent nature and culturally rich. It's easier for someone who dont speak chinese to go to shanghai or beijing, but guangzhou(some said it is food capital of china) will have more SEA vibe or Xi'an for pretty interesting sights, but it does not appear in geoguessr so... Reply

Definitely post the thailand vlogs! I'm going to bangkok in a month so i'd love to watch your experience and maybe learn new spots to visit while there.

more vlogs!!! im in high school and because of your vlogs and videos, i am saving up to travel after college

For places to visit I would highly recommend Argentina after having been there myself. Buenos Aires has that megacity feel to it with great walkability and decent transit and also has some amazing food options (especially the shawarma/middle eastern street food). Then there’s so many amazing destinations outside of the city with beautiful nature and unique wildlife, from the deserts and salt flats and volcanoes in the north to the glaciers and arctic mountains near the southern tip of the continent. I personally got to see llamas and capybaras and wild guinea pigs and ostriches that aren’t actually ostriches, even penguins at the very southern tip as well. Overall an amazing country with great people and beautiful scenery that’s also pretty cheap to visit and exist in as a foreigner

love you doing more videos on your travels since most geoguessr players that watch you are also into cultures/traveling/languages etc

I live in Chiangmai and it’s incredible to see how you put Thailand so high on the list. I totally get it it’s so chill and cool here and I find it amazing how you find where I live fun.

great work Rainbolt. continue your travels!

"I'm not going to get into it" (gets into it)

If you enjoy mountains then you can consider giving Nepal a try. It has majestic himalayas running through the entire upper half of the country and there are many places from where you can admire it and if you are feeling adventurous, you can also take the trekking routes to EBC(everest base camp), ABC (annapurna base camp), mardi himal trek, etc.

yes please release those other vlogs! I'd love to see you explore especially Asia more

I'm so grateful that you want to learn Thai! considering that a lot of foreigners who live in Thailand barely understand or speak Thai. But It's alright, Thai is pretty hard to learn. Until I found out that Blinky can read province names in Thai, maybe I was wrong 😅

Personal recommendation: Budapest in summer. Heat+amazing architecture+killer oinball museum+lovelyfood+cheap drinks.

As a Thai who live in Bangkok, I'm genuinely glad you like it here. But it's just so so hard to agree that BKK has good public transport, for a certain parts maybe. I'm really interesting in your journey of learning Thai though.

Southeast Asia is a popular tourist area. However, I think people underrated Taiwan. As a Taiwanese, I will say this little island contains a lot of culture and places to visit, also street food!!!!!

just recently went to Tokyo which I think you would definitely love considering your rating for Bangkok. Greece is also highly recommended.

You should definitely make your way to South/Central America! I loved Lima/Cusco, and Mexico City is a top city I want to visit for the architecture and city design (I used to work in architecture). So I think you might like MX for that if that’s something you place high value on (I do too). Brisbane is currently my 2nd favorite city in the world behind Seoul so I’m surprised you weren’t able to make it up there during your aussie tour but you should go next time. You might think it’s too small of a city but I loved the size and vibe.

Ay, man. Go for detailing your Bangkok(Thailand) experiences and thoughts on the culture. If that's a short or dull video for you, combine some 5 highlights or so... Love the channel. Peace ;

Melbournian here, love that you loved AFL, I'm a huge Demons fan! The stadium is the MCG (Melbourne Cricket Ground)

Also traveled a lot in SEA and been living in china for the past 10 years. Having been to Bangkok close to 10 times it is also one of my favorite cities for the reasons you mentioned. Other cities with a similar feel for me would be Hong Kong where I’ve also been about 10 times. If in mainland China I would recommend Chongqing. If you’re in Chengdu or Chongqing you can send me a message :)

if you liked Sevilla, Madrid is great in spring (this year was too rainy but if you catch a sunny streak it's great), the cities in the north of Spain are great in summer, but maybe a bit too cold for your taste, Barcelona has a lot of good stuff but IMO the people can be very hit or miss and it's definitely touristy. Valencia is a great beach city, it gets crowded in the summer but in other seasons it's a really nice place and probably "underrated" in terms of tourism. And if you don't mind the heat, I mean, Tokyo has a lot of the good you mention about Bangkok.

That really is the most wholesome thing

Please keep adding to this list as you go to other cities!

as a thai who lives in a less populated province where it is very rural and i will agree when people say bangkok is so much better than where i live i will fully agree (bangkok is good but like if u cant speak thai u might have trouble if u live there for a while also thai people are GREAT with tourist)(i also love when people talk about thailand because i will instantly go to the comments)

I am Argentine of Italian descent. It is normal that when you go to Europe you do several countries since everything is close but we decided to only do Italy. I toured the center and north. And without a doubt what I enjoy the most is the north, especially cities like Rapallo, Verona, and without a doubt the best is the Dolomites. What I liked least was Rome and Florence. The only very touristy city that I enjoy is Venice, but I wouldn't go back since it's to stay 2 or 3 days maximum. My recommendation is to go to the north, without a doubt the most beautiful.

I lived in Venice for a year during my degree and I completely agree on your assessment of it being too touristy - from that perspective, definitely D tier HOWEVER, it is one of my favourite places ever and feels like a home from home specifically because I experienced it as a resident, not as a tourist! If you don't hang around San Marco or the Rialto Bridge, you can avoid 80% of the tourists, and the rest of the city is full of hidden gems and wonderful people - S tier come un Veneziano :))

I've also been to Venice and I can agree with you reasoning. I still liked it, I had probably the best pizza I've tried so far there, but it was just too touristy, if it weren't just a massive tourist destination I would have really loved it.

Great video man!

Interesting that you put KL so low, when I went there I loved it. It's walkable has good public transport (in the areas I went to) unlike other south east Asian cities like Canggu which was higher on the list . I was only their in KL for a day or two so maybe my opinion will change if i spend a bit more time there. But I do agree that it feels very modern and I guess it's just a matter of personal taste. I personally dislike the chaos of being surrounded by 100 scooters with 50 horns beeping at the same time that many major south east Asian cities have. Not to mention the lack of walkability in many places. When it comes to looking for somewhere to live no amount of culture will make up the absolute chaos and car centricity of most big south east Asian cities. But that's just my opinion.

You may like Vancouver; big enough city to have tons to do, skytrain is great for getting around, and has the mountains right nearby as well. I know Canada wouldn't be very exotic for you but I still think it's worth checking it out

I have no idea of the context of this, but why do you hate on the English/ England exactly? I’m an American, now living in the English countryside, and I love England! The rich fascinating history + historic architecture alone does it for me (I’m currently renovating a cottage from the early 1400s), but also because I share a lot of non-American ideals with you such as walkability. I think it’s a shame that there’s so much animosity between Europeans and Americans these days… Anyway, it’s good that you liked London, but for me, the best places to explore in England would be the smaller historic cities (e.g. Bath, York, Oxford, Cambridge, Canterbury, Chester, Salisbury, Durham, Wells, Brighton, Winchester, Ely, Lincoln, Norwich, Windsor etc…), and of course the hundreds upon hundreds of beautiful and historic villages and market towns across the English countryside (for a first time visitor the famous Cotswolds region is very tourist friendly place to start). In general, I think the smaller traditional places are the best in each European nation.

Since you have been to Thailand and Laos, I would recommend Vietnam. I went to the north for a week in June and stayed with the family of a friend from college and I really enjoyed it. The people there are very nice and accommodating and the food was very good. The cities I went to were Hanoi, Tuyen Quang, Ha Giang, and Ha Long. The mountains in Ha Giang are breathtaking, but there is quite a lot of tourists on motorbikes. The only downside I have is Hanoi is very polluted so I would recommend wearing a mask.

This is the content I subscribed for

As a German I can say, a hot dog is not like a Bratwurst.

based on your opinions i think you would love to visit the northeast of brazil, maybe chapada diamantina or lençois maranhenses! and definitely come to Alagoas (state), we have the best beaches!

I never was super interested in going to south east Asia but seeing you enjoy Bangkok so much is making me debate if I should give in to my friends wanting to go there 😅

Would like to see more of your travels every now and then.

I would be sooooo curious how you would find Berlin in Summer. It's a hot mess of a city and no one is friendly, but it's very walkable and everyone speaks english.

if you make your way over to Switzerland this or next month, you‘d be able to enjoy the gorgeous scenery at a warm temperature! I‘d have so so many recommendations for hidden gems

Nice to see someone having a preference to Southeast Asian cities, I want to know most of those countries myself, such a rich cultural super area

so glad you loved bangkok!! I feel so happy seeing tourists enjoying my home country's food, land, and people🥰🥰🥰

Myself as Thai, you should try some bars in downtown Chiang Mai. People there so friendly and easy to get into and good taste of music. Also, cafe in that area are so niche and coffee taste very good. I hope you enjoy more Thai tea which is also my favorite drink. Cha Tra Mue brand is one of the best Thai tea I’ve ever had.

Glad you really enjoy Bangkok and SE Asia in general but I could literally never live there with how hot and humid it is constantly. My tolerance for temperature maxes out at like 70 degrees with humidity, maybe 85-90 without, but even then anything above 65-70 makes it impossible for me to enjoy any walkability or good urban infrastructure because it’s just too hot to do so comfortably.

Seeing my city getting S tier is making me so happy! Thanks for visiting rainbolt!

“I just hate driving, haven’t drove in 6 years” nowww I know why he left America lmao

I also enjoyed Bangkok, but couldn't deal with the heat long term. A humid 35C is just torture, you'll be drenched in sweat the minute you leave the air conditioned indoor spaces. Makes it impossible to enjoy any outdoor activities, like I can't imagine going on a run in that weather. I'd love to live there if the average temp was like 10C lower lol

rainbolt simping sea is too nice

during the early warriors dinasty I used to follow currylegion and I found out you were the admin. I was speechless lol I've known you on the internet for two totally different things you're a legend

I thought you gonna put Thailand on a very lower rank ( mostly because it's too hot even for me as Thai) But I'm happy you love it! Of course I wanna hear more about your experiences there. You're always welcome here. ❤

Its funny cause leaving in Bangkok is the last thing id want

try seoul!! nobody I've met here said they didn't like it, or could even say anything bad about it. it's super walkable, great public transportation, gets super hot in summer, and is very nice in spring and autumn, has great food and street food, has lots of cultural heritage and great art...

I was rlly surprised you haven't gone to Finland, you guess it correctly every time in geoguesser :D

It's 26C here and it already feels a little too hot, no idea how someone can prefer hot humid places but to each their own I guess

Lived in Bangkok for the first 18 years of my life, mate completely agree. Also mall culture is 10/10 best memories with friends.

Really curious to see where you would have Paris. Also interesting Venice take, i feel like a lot of people say the same thing about it lol

Game at MCG ('the G), King's Cross in Sydney. Did both things myself there back in '04. Good job. You need to go Phnom Penh and Vietnam too. And Tokyo. Tokyo's mind-blowing and you'd love its energy for sure. Also if you're spending loads of time in Thailand you could hit the islands. Koh Samui's great for going out and has loads of beaches.

I felt EXACTLY the same in KL. It's nice they keep it so clean, but coming from Bangkok this city felt a bit boring. Interesting experience. I absolutely love Bangkok too like Rainbolt.

i doubt it has changed much since i was in bangkok but it was easily the worse city ive ever been in. the smog was suffocating, insanely hot, smells like garbage because there is garbage everywhere. i cant see it being s tier non ironically.

king st is in newtown! insane that u were so close to where i live dude im glad u enjoyed sydney (newtown is an awesome suburb btw)

im surprised you thought Malaysian food was spicy. Thailand has much stronger flavors than Malaysia. When I went from Thailand to Malaysia the food just became so bland because thai food was so flavorful

very dope video. tryna live like you bro

Yessir, Bangkok video would be so dope

do you not sweat a lot or do you just not mind it that much? I’ve been to southeast asia a few times and felt miserable with the sweat haha

Check out Hong Kong and Taipei if you havent already. Bangkok sounds awesome, I love Thai street food.

Definitely interested in seeing more Bangkok videos.
