Love that you vlog the scenery and not 30 minutes of your face like most do 🙏🏼

47 minutes is fine with me. Always good , informative videos.

Great video again STL. I watch till the end and if longer I'll keep watching and enjoying. Cheers 👍

I'd watch your videos even if they were two hours long... whilst some of your videos are longer than the average KZfaqr's, they're also more entertaining!

Life on or near the river is pretty amazing, my wife’s daughters restaurant is not far from ICON SIAM……short walking distance, very easy to get around but always a lot of traffic….next time you are down that way you should stop for lunch…….creeping up on 100k subs too……awesome STL!

I soo look forward to your videos, so full of detail and information, I would love if they were longer Thank you for bringing us along on your travels its awesome.

LOVE your long videos!! Keep them coming. 😛

Thank you for all the interesting videos. We already booked some nights in Bangkok at the ibis riverside and in 2025 we will travel to Cha- Am and Hua Hin! Thank you! Greetings from Switzerland. Christa and Stefan

Watched it all- not too long. When it’s varied including accommodation , transport , shopping, food and drink and unique spots it’s not too long . When you give historical context and recommendations it’s not going to be too long . The droning new boy in town vloggers that specialize in clickbait and regurgitate the same same stuff as dozens of others- I don’t have time to waste with them. I’m coming back to Thailand for the first time since 2017 sometime soon and your channel has value for sure .

Thanks for the Bangkok fix, loved the long video! Can’t wait till we go back next winter. ❤

My son would love that shop with the old stuff too, in fact he's like you when it comes to collecting old maps and globes.

Great video STL! I enjoyed the mall eats, the views and Jack's (going there for sure).

You are the second Thailand vlogger to reference Floyd the Barber from Mayberry in the past day. Steve Rosse who lives at Turtle Beach did so in his vlog yesterday.

One of the best videos of Thailand that I've seen! Great job!

All vids to date have been excellent with regards to content , very informative & executed professionally Thank you STL keep up the great channel

ALWAYS impressive the way your productions manage to capture the vibes of the areas you are in - perfectly! This video was so fun; you brought the life of Bangkok's old/new city vibes and views right through the screen again. I could look at the beautiful old buildings and hotels all day...so yum! Thanks STL, for always creating with care and please don't evah' shorten🙂

Another great video! Love this area :-)

The best guided tour I've ever had around that area. Been there done that and missed heaps so thanks for the refresher. If you think it's a long vlog .. give yourself an intermission just like the old days. Some of those old buildings are awesome so good to see restoration being done. Bushyboy Oz.

LOL, so hard to "endure" 47 mins!! Awesome as always. IconSiam had just had its grand opening when I was last in BKK. Was all booked in for a 6-month+ visit 2020 except for a few postponements with lockdowns, so am quite looking forward to coming back next month.

Followed you for 3 years ,saved my sanity, after i got sick amnd could not travel , but finally well enough to return to Thailand ,your vids have kept me sane.😂 Be back in Hau Hin April . Thanks and keep them coming Gtrat Job👍🏼

Definitely not a case of enduring! 😊 That is what I find so amazing about Bangkok, take a few steps and its a different world. ❤ Even the food at the top of icon siam wasn't scary prices. 👍

Fantastic video such great information as always! And about 99% sure that I’ve watched one of your videos now. Looking forward to retracing some of your steps. I’ll be retired by August 2025. Looking forward to many great adventures! I’m a big Tabasco fan myself! I’ve been to Avery Island two times. If you go set aside the whole day and get there early and take the tour of the whole grounds. There’s even a big Buddha in a temple. It’s a beautiful setting. And there the largest collection of live bamboo gardens in the world! It’s a beautiful place. The old Avery island. It’s on top of a huge salt mine as big as Mount Everest, but underground. Thank you so very much!

I really appreciate your long form videos. Please keep producing them...

Great video if you make long videos I am happy to watch and if you want to split them into two I am happy to watch, up to you, whatever pays you the most. Short or long I am going to watch them. Grat view of the river while eating your meal. 👍😎

Thanks for showing Sook Siam showcasing authentic Thai food variations.

I stayed til the end, as always:) I like the neighborhood tour/afternoon walks. Very interesting and varied. Have a great week!

Hi great video ! My favorite part of town as well. Two places that never get old, for me: English Bay and the Chao Phraya river 😊

I feel like I need to pay you my long needed respect and thanks. I subscribed a long time ago and 'liked' all your videos but just want to comment that your content is consistently high quality, entertaining, informative and full of practical advice and recommendations. For example, i was in the process of booking the Ibis Riverside for 3 nights on 28th December for 187 British pounds when my fiancee said that the room only had a small window which is not ideal as she is claustrophobic. Lo and behold we were at the point of watching this video when you mentioned the Naga Residence next door.Luckily, we were able to book a huge beautiful room with a king bed and balcony for only 129 pounds in total checking out on New Years Eve. To say we are overjoyed and thankful is an understatement!

Great video. Lots crammed in , one of your best. Keep them coming. Ps. Spent a New Year’s Eve at the Ibis, one of the best nights I’ve ever had in Bangkok.

Excellent as always.

Love the secret nuggets like going into the side entrance like Icon Siam

Always watch to the end, great information thanks x

Just better and better! Long vids are great.

Thank you STL. Long video but never long enough in my opinion. You do such a wonderful job. ❤❤❤

My Thai wife and I loved your video. We are living in Texas now. We are planning on moving to Thailand as soon as possible. Keep up the good work. -Your Cuban friend

I LOVE THESE LONG VIDEOS!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤

Love the video STL ❤ This makes me long for Bangkok & thanks for sharing 😊

Mate, just love your videos! 47 mins is not enough! Haha, love it!

Great Video! I've worked out at that outdoor park gym. This video has a ton of great information. I booked a night at The Ibis next month Thanks STL. I will make a video.

I watch all videos until the end. Great watch again. Enjoyed it. Think I'll visit Jack's bar on my next trip. Cheers.

Cheers from another Canuck from Southern Ontario. I always make it to the end of your vids and wish there was another hour or two still to go. 👍I first started watching about a couple months or so ago. You know how it goes during a KZfaq deep dive, I just happened upon one of your videos and haven't stopped watching since lol. Love the content, love the Irie chill music vibes that you add. Really love the live music you happen upon during your sidetrips. I think I'm caught up, but may still have a few older vids to watch. I habitually look forward to the next one. Cheers.

One of your best vlogs love it great balanced content that reflects so many differing aspects of the riverside demographics - well done

Another brilliant video, well done always interesting...

We love this video!!! We were just in Bangkok 3 weeks ago! We stayed at the Shangri-La & loved it! The footage of Jack’s Bar made miss Bangkok so much! Dude- this video of Bangkok makes us miss this place so bad!!! Thanks for sharing the best video ever😊😃😃😃❤️

Some great views & shots of Bangkok by the river 😎😎 Great video as always STL 👍👍

Absolutely luv sitting there by river. From England my Absolutely favourite place in the world. Gives me peace and tranquility

Intriguing footage! Your adventures are stirring a desire to embark on a walkabout through these very streets upon my return to Bangkok. The bustling energy, the myriad of activities beckoning! So many things to do, so little time! A hearty toast from the far reaches of Alaska.

What an absolutely wonderful and informative video. Love your work, outstanding!❤🎉

Always watch to the end! Great video ! Thanks

Loved the video. Beautiful views at the end! So hoping to make it there some day. I aleays watch til the end and am so sad when it is over..

Great video, one of your best. You pack more information in than any other vlogger.

Never to long, love em, cheers

The Bangkok River side tour is an excellent trip and this is unusual for me to be up this time of the night that happened to the night that I cannot sleep until later on tomorrow will your video Keeping me company and thanks to you.

Yes, this is a bit longer vid, but very enjoyable and informative thanks for sharing keep up the great work.

Thankyou for sharing…looking forward to returning. Last there in 1985😱backpacking! from Perth Western Australia 🇦🇺🦘

Great video! STL

Great vid once again. Longer next time!!!

Another great one 😊

STL you always put a lot of work into your videos, with such an optimistic outlook, enjoyed watching to the end, thank you, rgds

Good one Dude. Packed with good stuff

Another great video, thanks and keep 'em coming!

Great video as always

Another wonderful vlog. Short or long I’m in. Thank you for sharing

❤the long videos! More please. This is a very relaxing channel. Also ❤old unrestored buildings!

Mahalo ! (thanks)! Never really considered or knew about the Riverfront. Great tour and invaluable info . Is there any kind of cooling effects , being by the river, or just more open ?

Keep 'em coming please!!!

Hi STL , You can make 2 hours videos i will always watch till the end. It,s a very pleasant getaway every time !

Great video. I sat along the rail of HOB and just marveled at the view myself. I actually felt fortunate to be able to sit there and take it all in.

Great vid as usual. Length was great for me, no having to wait for the usual "next time part 2"

Hi STL, another great video ending with a pint of my favourite - Stella 👍. I prefer shorter videos but more of them, 47 mins is a bit long 😊

Love the longer videos!

You have made our choices in BK a great deal easier, thank you for the advice and professional videos: saved us quite a bit on costs and reduced any anxiety we had about our choices. Bravo.

Watching it for a second time brother!!

Did I make it to the end?!! Of course! While I generally prefer a slightly shorter video, as long as you keep things going and actual content ( Ie limited "filler" -- I haven't seen any "filler" on any of your vids ) I will surely make the time to absorb whatever you can bring me. This was often just breath-taking!! I'm awful with crowds in my "older" years, but this is clearly not to be passed over -- kind of like Old Town Vegas meets the Vancouver inner harbour -- Granville Island and Metrotown/Silver City all rolled into one -- but affordable. Positively must experience this -- I might get addicted, tho... Cheers!...from North Vancouver

great video love the length

Thank you for another great video. It's our favourite area when we stay in Bangkok by the River. Stay Safe from UK.

This is like the best channel for ADHD people like me 😂

Keep doing them, I am nearly 67 and have been following all the places you go, done Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, even went to Belitung, going later to Metawi islands, brilliant, funny, and good knowledge passed on,👍

Hello STL. This video almost mirrored my 11 day stay in BKK back in 2019. It bought back so many great memories for me... I love that place 👍👍🦘🦘

I love your attention to details. My desire to live in Thailand is mostly because of your videos. Unfortunately I have to watch the video several times in order to catch everything that you're filming. There's so much to unpack. Can you make a few short videos highlighting just a few hot spots at a time. (Maybe two or three hotels along with what's around those hotels), (the old building are fascinating but because of time and the losing of daylight, you have to blow by them. (Jacks has a lot of great history and looks like tons of fun and your narrative is far superior than other KZfaq vbloggers). That's three videos that could get you a ton of viewers and possibly quite a few subscribers. Thank you again for great content and excellent blogging Sly.

Love your style of vlogs, not too long for me. Keep up the great work.

You do a fantastic job at the street level tours, just like we're there. I have fallen in love with Bangkok and Thailand because of your channel. We'll visit one day! I can totally envision living out retirement there, when it comes. Thank you.

Thanks for your video. We stayed in Bangkok last year but on the wrong side of the river clearly after watching your video's. We stayed at The Chatrium which was a nice Hotel, but not as good for things to do around it. We know next time to stay on the other side. Close but yet so far, as they say! Really enjoying your channel.

Great walk. My wife and I had our wedding ceremony at the Hilton (pre-IconSiam). Love the central location of the Sheraton. Also like staying at the Ibis…

I like the longer vds. Thanks.

I have to admit during my river trip I got a bit confused with all the ferry boats and where to stand for the one I wanted LOL. Had 3-4 people finally get me in the proper line. Language was bit of an issue. Icon Siam is indeed amazing mall plus lots of great places along river to chill with a beer and food. This vlogger is right, a lot to explore in this section of Bangkok

Another great vlog Mr Side Trip, was in Bangkok as recently as January and already missing the vibes of the city.

STL, your videos are simply amazing and packed with helpful information. Thank you thank you thank you. Making my first trip to Thailand next month for 90 days and will be putting a lot of your insights to into my trip planning! Change of topic, but a while back you shared a video of your experience attending a great music festival in Hua Hin area I believe. Do you know when that festival is this year by chance? I’ve been researching but can’t seem to find any definitive information or current festival website

So many memories from when I lived in that area in 2003-2004. Sathon road soi 21. It's where I drank snake blood for the first and last time. Sometimes I go back for a chat with old friends who still live there. Thank you for sharing! By the way, I think the boat from Icon Siam to Saphan Taksin pier is no longer free.

So good to see this area. Good spent 47 minutes.

I really look forward to your videos .. never disappointed...❤❤

Thanks again for the pet friendly hotel, Would be great to see more on your travels.

First of all, I just love your vids! Many good tips, even for those who live in Thailand. And your videos are NEVER tot long. Second thing: Last Tuesday coming from the sticks (Pathum Thani) been Bangkoking my self with the misses, doing some errands here and there, ended up at Icon Siam to buy a new Apple TV 4K, some drinks and a small dinner. But somehow every time we eat at Icon, we get it wrong. 2 times at Sook Siam, and this time more up scale at Grey Hound, Absolutely tasteless soup, spaghetti, and fish balls in a jacket with some fries which were call "fish and chips". OK, maybe I'm a bit spoiled with my significant other being a chef, but for the prices they charge at Icon... Or are we just that unlucky... Keep up the good work, and we will continue to watch!

Another great video from STL! After watching your previous videos of Riverside I have decided that that is probably going to be where I reside when I come back to Thailand which hopefully will be very soon. Thanks for showing me my future neighborhood. Personally I prefer older buildings in the original state, as long as they're maintained. Bangkok is like the gift that keeps on giving. Everywhere you turn there's something else to see, to do, to experience. It's crazy good.

Loved this and the drooling too over not only the very pricey cars (I cant afford let alone want to drive those) but, also the historic architecture. Thanks and take care.

Lebua is my favorite bar roof. The area around and river side is a nice area Great video Micke 🇸🇪

I can’t believe all the “we move to Bangkok” KZfaqrs don’t move to this area or even highlight it. Thank You!!! I seen one of those cars on CB Media.

Your videos are always good no matter their length. Burlington Ontario

I haven't been to Jack's Bar in over 10 years!!! Time to go back!!!!

In terms of urban environment that area of Bangkok is the best in Thailand and possibly the whole world- the strip between China town and the ibis - the river itself has both a busy and a tranquil calming in the centre of Chaos, there’s all the classic places, lebua, icon, peninsula, mandarin, Shanghai la, Chinatown and all it’s interest, endless alleys which a hidden gem down each one it’s impossible for someone like myself to put into words the atmosphere of that area
