Clear your misconceptions ,what the west shows u. India is not like any other country ,6 seasons and every type of landscape makes it special

Guys we adore you so much. You never had the exposure of what india actually looks like. It is very embarrassing listening to again and again it's don't feels like India. If somebody tells you INDIA IS DIVERSE is actually what you experienced. India is not only about crowded places, slums and Taj Mahal. There is still a lot to explore. ❤️🇮🇳

Actually, western media don't show u the true INDIA, that's why u people feel " is this really INDIA?" times and times .Enjoy your trip, stay safe and fine.If u face any prblm in INDIA, we are really sorry for that. HAPPY JOURNEY💙💙💙💙🙏🙏🙏

India is very diverse, and beautiful, it will take a years to explore entire India and its beauty...

this is as real India as it can get. people there look like tibetans as Tibet was part of Indian culture and civilization for thousands of years. Kailash mountain and Mansarovar lake in Tibet are where Shiva and many other great indian beings stored their knowledge and wisom in the form of energy. these two are most spiritual places in the world while visiting them people start bursting with tears of ecstasy.

India is not just a crowded place... much more then that.. apart from infrastructure and tiny roads, so much crowd you can also find there so much nature beauty... Which can mesmerized you in just a moment of blink. What you explore in laddakh is just a small part of india.. and What foreign media show is also a small part of our country. there are many more beautiful thing to explore in our country India. You can't explore the whole india a single trip. Nd I always feel proud that i have born in India. ❤️

India is a diverse country. We have different languages, different landscapes all over. Also, food you ate looks good. But it’s cheap for us Indians too 😊 😅 Hope you enjoyed your trip to India. Namaste!

Don't miss manali and dharamshala, you might even meet Dalai Lama if lucky....

You have yet to discover North-East India. You'd be amazed how diverse and different India is.

Guys please be careful it's not peru, Switzerland or Austria , Himalayan mountain range is the highest mountain range in the world and geologically it's the young mountain range so the hikes are way more steep, rocky and prone to landslides.

This video needs to viral in foreign countries especially western countries , and don't forget to visit Shima and southern part of india its totally different

Really really appreciate you doing your research bz india is not all about the golden triangle and not a lot of people really go to ladakh or manali thank you hope you can go to every part of India

Great video guys!. India is quite different it looks different people look different language changes culture changes even dress changes every 50kms -100kms something or other changes

India is a country of wonders and strangeness, a country of many cultures, civilizations and religions, a multilingual country, a multi-climate country, this is the great country of India, gentlemen 🙂👍

Have you been to Leh? What do you think of this place? It’s personally one of our favourite places we’ve ever been! 😍

And one more thing Dalai Lama actually resides in my state Himachal Pradesh Dharamshala you can also visit Dharamshala it's winter capital of Himachal Pradesh you can visit here please.

Even Buddha was Indian....he attained his enlightenment in bihar....hindus Buddhist jains Sikhs are religions from the dharmic fold....they originate from the same philosophy called sanatam dharma

India is diverse and Indians quite verse with cross cultural differences hence can fit anywhere in world..

I like to suggest you guys, Try to visit NE India as well and experience the diversity of this country😀😀👍

i dont know what the fuck other countrys have stereotype about us but india is an amazing place you can just experience everything you want in different parts of country

Since you guys of visiting Leh Ladakh please visit my state Himachal Pradesh there are many good places such as Shimla with British buildings or Kasauli also known as mini isreal or Manali it's very beautiful. Himachal Pradesh is the neighbouring state of Ladakh.

From an Indian living in Tokyo -->>> ❣❣❣❣❣ . Nice to see you are enjoying the serene beauty of Leh & Ladakh

we dont really carry cash around anymore. Its mostly online payments through UPI and its super convenient. I've barely used cash in India in the last 2 years 🌚

India is quite rich with the diversity be it people or place. If you make presumptions it will break every time you will visit a new part of India. Forget new part the same place looks different at times in some seasons. That's why we call विविधता मैं एकता।।

Don't say this again 'this doesn't feel like india 🇮🇳 ' this is our india just international media doesn't shows they just shows a dirty corner of a city

*This doesn't feel like India* ??! Well. India is EVERYTHING YOU CAN IMAGINE bruh 💯 It's an amalgamation of all kind of worlds. India's DIVERSITY is beyond Western media's imagination.

A lot of people are visiting INDIA and other parts of the country, when you all say it doesn't feel like India, did you expect it to be like you have been or had been shown in your movies ? ? and I am not being rude here, I am just a bit shocked to see how people's mind can be manipulated or make them them think about certain country, religion, state, or any part of the part in a certain way, that is how powerful media has been and how clueless or I should say not bothered to think people are. I hope you are enjoying your visit/vacation, and take a good memories also try to show the other side of the country which every country has.

Wow Leh looks like another world from when I went there about thirty years ago. There were no coffee shop or fancy restaurants and it was only a dollar or two for a meal. You had to stay in a locals house with the family. Did you try the butter tea and sampa bread? It was so cold they heated water in a kettle for you bath and your hair froze right away. Did you go to the temple built into the cliffs with the huge walls of padmi stones on the way up? The apricot kernels tasted like almonds. No bitterness at all. I hope you had a good time there. Yes the altitude is hard to used too. There is a bus that goes to Manali from there. It takes two days try it. Om shanti shanti Om!

Really loved the video but one thing that was irritating was you constantly saying "this doesn't feel like India" . India is much more than crowdy metropolitan cities like Delhi , mumbai where there is a lot of rush and you can experience that thing in any other part of the world. Visit Kerala, Sikkim , kashmir, goa, andamans and many such places and that may change your perception about India

Use UPI no one use card or Cash in India now a days

If they visit south India they feel oh it's not like India it's like sri Lanka tailand. If they visit Kashmir oh it's not like india it's like pakistan. If they visit north east oh it's not like India it's like China, burma. If they visit u.p, bihar oh it's not like India it's like nepal. If they visit bengal oh it's not like india it's like Bangladesh. If they visit Goa oh it's not like India it's like portugeese. Sad reality this countries pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Tibet, Bhutan, burma, srilanka are part of India.

India is the only country where you can experience tropical Rain forests,Decidous forests,deserts,ice caped Himalayas, grasslands and many more climate areas

When people say it can't feel like India! It means they don't know what India is actually, just some distorted understanding of it or mostly stereotypical one ,sadly tho.

"This doesn't feel like India" said every vlogger ever. This just shows how ignorant the western media is and how they show just the dirty cities, mostly slums in big cities and project a certain image of India. Indian villages and small towns and natural places are really very pretty and picturesque. Also the northern parts of India and the north east is out of this world and even has heavy snowfall as we have the Himalayas ranges there. The south and the islands have good beaches and tropical beauty.

I really appreciate you guys exploring the part of India that is not very much explored by the foreigners.

Another stunner of a video. Well done as always. Never disappointed guys. It looks like you had a lot of fun. Leh Ladakh is a place where you can truly get away from the crowds. Happy Anniversary! Rhett and Claire🙏❤🙏 Love you guys ! Harriet, Jim and Yuki. Richmond, Va.

I don't remember any foreigner/travel vlogger showing Leh or any other northern/northeastern states in India. Good job guys. Loved it.👍❤

You guys don't believe its india But we know our india is so beautiful😌💙

I like that you guys are having a really good time in India but please it's a humble request (very humble) one that please don't say it doesn't look like India ! India has always been beautiful and we don't care about what west media says about us! We love it here! This is indiaa ! And always had been.

Buddhism started in India ,so obviously you are gonna find Buddhist towns in India , there are hundreds of them all over the India

Where ever you will visit in india you will be astonished. Every geography is unique and vast full of history.

I don't know how the world's media is showing India to its people.

i like the way that how you both have been showing the nature & beauty of India

ये वीडियो एक संदेश है। जो इंडिया का पैसा खर्चा करने विदेश घूमने जाते हैं। अपना देश किसी विदेश से कम नहीं है। अपना ही देश में explore करे ताकि लोगों को रोजगार मिले और अपना देश तरकी की और बढ़े

Rhett and Claire I have the same issue its pure anxiety and panic disorder. Just relax and don't do repetitive behaviours. I quit coffee and smoking and feel better. I have done almost all the tests to make sure everything fine but sometimes anxiety kicks in and creates panic. Best thing is to not do repeatative behaviours. Love what you doing Love from INDIA GOA

Since you are visiting leh please do visit Manali, shimla, kullu etc..

I just hate when people give statements like "Is this India?" ... This is simply their ignorance.

What you said about Ladakh can also be said about Arunachal on the North Eastern end of the HImalayas, except in both places you will find non-Hindus speaking perfect Hindi because they are Indian! It's a complex border and I don't wanna talk about the India-China border conflict because that inevitably brings angry people to comment on how wrong I am and stuff like that. Geographically, the mountains you see are the Zanskar range and maybe the Karakoram, depending on how high you've climbed, the HImalayas (geographically speaking ) lie between Ladakh and Kashmir, so technically you are on an adjunct of the Tibetan plateau!!! Culturally, Vajrayana Buddhism and Indian Tantric/Shaktism practices are and have been culturally linked for over a thousand years easy! PS: Have Rhett go to the monastery to meditate and chill if you can, ask your local hosts about the prayer times and I'm sure both of you will find some inner space to get over the drawbacks you've had in the recent past as you let go of it psychically and spiritually. Our mountain ranges have given millions of Indians spiritual strength through the ages given the majesty, stolidity and beauty they signify and I'm sure that if you immerse yourself in the local spiritual way of practice for the next few days (given that it comes from years of developing in the local context as a way to assuage anyone's troubles, since that's what spirituality is actually for!) I am sure both of you will come out stronger together!!! Wishing you all the best!

I'm curious to know what image you had of India in your mind because I keep hearing this from foreign vloggers "This doesn't feel like India" 😅 As an Indian, the question arises - so what does?

love the misconceptions 😁. next time visit, Andaman. there is a reason India is called the Sub Continent. I recommend visiting Andaman Nicobar Islands, Kaziranga National Park for Rhinos, Meghalaya cloud ☁️ states and wettest state. TOTALLY NORMAL for the west to just show slums .

Every state of India has its own beauty and is worthy of getting foreign tourists. The west’s perception about India is so wrong, I’m glad you’re able to understand this. The language, culture, traditions and food in India changes every 200 KM

Watching ur trips became my daily routine now ur covering the best part of India. U should visit south India too there are lot of beautiful places in South Indian cities like Hyderabad which is build back in 15th century, Goa’s beautiful hidden beaches, Kerala’s excellent nature trip, TN’s Ooty and Kanyakumari.

Hey guy's, Hope you both are healthy and happy it's really very awkward moment when you hear "it's not like India" Let me tell you one thing Take two maps one of whole world And second of only India Now choose the type of nature course scenic beauty, mountains riverfalls , sand dessert, snow dessert,landscape forest ('tropical forest, rainforest,or pine forest oak forest ') Anything you can think of Undoubtedly don't choose any specific country to travel "just travel all the state's of India " You will get the world here Why do you think India is motherland and heart of 140 crore people Give a thought on that 😅 And please i request 🙏 you on behalf of 140 crore people of India Don't fell prey of west media" Indian's are very emotional for their motherland" an Indian in time of demand can sacrifice his /her life for there motherland without giving a single thought of thier own mother or family. So don't say "it doesn't looks like India " 🇮🇳 Jai Hind 🇮🇳 vande Mataram 🇮🇳

Leh & Ladakh Amazing place in the world 🌍🙏

Ladakh is absolutely stunning! Great video😀👍

I went there for 10 days last September.. We just had a day to acclimatize but luckily for me , out of our group of 4 friends, I didn't have any problem on any day.. If you are working out, doing yoga continuously before going to ladakh then it's gonna be alright. Even at khardungla, rest 3 passed out while I managed to climb the hillock above the road there.. Eat right, eat less, drink water, avoid alcohol, enjoy the journey and have some chocolates and chewing gums , they help... Diamox, when needed is the go to medicine. ✌✌ enjoy

Your vlogs are SOOO WELL PRODUCED! Some of the most beautiful vlogs on KZfaq. Glad you visited Ladakh! 🇮🇳

What do you mean it doesn't feel like india?

India is very special country In india every types of season, diversity in food, language, Natural beauty more things are there Every state of India you see another country in it cold ,humid ,desert, everything ..... I love my country 🇮🇳🇮🇳

So nice to hear her taking about HH The Dalia Lama and Desmond Tutu...pure joy 😊 . God bless you 🙏

"Doesn't feel like India" This bias hurts💔

Every state in india show a different culture and climate. 😇😇😇🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

Glad to see that you are enjoying real beauty of India,unlike other youtubers they only visit tier 1 cities like Mumbai delhi

Leh/ladakh is very beautiful

India geographical is mixture of 5 country ❤️🇮🇳🚩

I just saw your whole ladakh series its amazing 💜💜

Finally you show best part of India after Ride with frency...lots of love from india 🇮🇳🇮🇳😘😘😘

I am from ladakh nd after watching this i' m kinda Feeling proud to myself

India is not a homogeneous country like in west, The language, cultural practices, foods, belief system everything changes from one region to another. That's what makes it great, even Indians get cultural shock travelling from one region to another.

The intro video is amazing with background music ❣️

The reason there are less ATMs of less card usage ..coz, we have already moved to UPI payments… like Google Pay, PayTm and PhonePay.. all you need is your mobile

Thanks for your visit to incredible india🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

Thank you for the awesome Video! Can‘t wait to Go

We don't have a lot ATMs across the country because we choose to pay digitally through QR codes so there's actually no need of ATMs to withdraw the physical cash money to pay even the road side tea vendor because they also accept digit payments Fun fact: largest amount of digital transaction and biggest worth of digital transaction of about $40 Billion happened in India last year.

Different landscapes Different ethnicity Different culture Different cuisines Different languages n dialects There is a reason why India is described as "unity in diversity".

It doesn't feel like India huhh So what do you guys think what india feels like, slum or just chaotic places,poor people, no different landscape, butter chicken masala, chai tea, bread naan 🙄 India is not like other countries where anywhere you go it's all the same Here in India every state has its own coustom, culture, food, So plz stop saying "it doesn't feel like India"😅 Actually what do you think when we say 'unity in diversity'

0:12: when foreign tourists say "it doesnt feel like India at all"...is like steorotyping someone just the way they have known them with their meagre knowledge.India is 7th largest country in world with 6 seasons, such diverse geographical terrains- deserts-hot&cold, wetlands,plateaus,moutains,oceans,great plains; multitude of languages,cultures all across its 28 states spanning "approx" 3k kms North to S& W to E .India is way way more than west media potrays only population,heat & slums only if they took time to explore its vast stretch to find out that there cannot be just 1 way u to perceive diverse India. Nice video though showcasing beautiful Himalayas.

But I Feel happy when I listen this doesn't look like India but Fact their feet is on Indian soil at that moment... Means People feels it better than Western Countries 👍 We can't change the western media & Mentality towards South Asia BUT That's Achievement when Breaks mis-conception 🙏🇮🇳Jai Hind

Actual famous route is manali to leh Ladakh by bike ride. Then you enjoyed the most

actually India is a mini world. each Indian state is different to other. when Indians go outside of the state to a new state in the country it seems like a different country to them. before these you have only been to the cities of India. when you go to towns and villages you would see the real culture of the country.

You are not only video makers but also two good teacher for us India and South Africa cricket match in Assam in Guwahati city ( India ) 2/10/2022

One absolutely must do activity in Ladakh is touring on a motorcycle.

Yeah of course this is our beautiful India ❤️ welcome

you said "this doesn't feel like india"...what does India suppose to feel like?

You explored one of my favourite place in this vlog...i suggest to Visit shimla and manali too 😊

Next level editing... I love it ❤️

Leh is amazing 😀❤️ place visit north east also ❤️😀lots of love from india

Hinduism most sacred place the abode of Shiva is in Kailash Manasarovar which is under illegal occupation by the Chinese. Hope your videos open up the narrow minds of the West. Also highly recommend visiting the Andaman Nicobar Islands. it's just sublime.

8:45 In Ladakh we have 2 prominent religion that's Buddhist and Muslim, And a very tiny amount of Christian population

From himalayas to thar dessert to goa beaches to 7 sisters beauty it is india❣️

Hope you get better soon, iv been there before, better to focus on getting well before you venture into trying new things.

Leh is expensive because it costs a lot of money to transport stuff there. Not much food can grow there

It happens when you take a direct flight from plains to 3500m altitude.. that's why most of the people go by bikes that way their body get time to acclimatize .

Fantastic vlog! This is on our India travel list! 😍

Have THUPKA soup, its a local soup, its delicious and will help you deal with the climate too. You might get it at hotel only (we got it at breakfast).

I stayed in same hotel in July. Nostalgia feeling. Ladakh is love ❤️

Hey Rhett and Claire as of now you guys are in India. I would suggest you guys to Go to Ayodhya on the occasion of Diwali the festival of lights as Ayodhya is the birthplace of lord Ram and the place where the world famous (Dipotsava is organised it's a great laser and candle show along side the Holy Saryu(Ghaghra) River. Where the Chief Minister starts the show and it's a state fare where 9 lakh (900,000)diyas(Lamp of oil and made up of clay were lighted creating a world record) and a bunch of amazing places in the town. It's on 23rd of October. In the Evening. Love your videos guys

Go to North eastern India, it's very beautiful, or you can come here in Kolkata city.
