Patty Watch JP Reacts for The American perspective on current life here . It’s a parody.But True

Paddy, if you need petrol in remote village, just say “xang” then the local will show you the way.

Thanks for taking me to the beautiful scenery of my motherland that i have always dream of, great attitude and funny ,the best you tuber that i have watched so far ,take care and keep up the good work .My tension gone up when you shown the fuel gauge , very brave !!!

My Dad volunteered to serve in the Air Force in Vietnam. He and my Mom talked about it at length and they knew by the time I was born in 1964 that the war was going to get hot. He wanted to put in his time over there BEFORE things got bad. Fortunately, he was sent to Germany instead, and this is where we lived during the late 60's, safe from harm's way. Vietnam was always a big thing in my family as my uncle served over there and we also lived at Travis Air Force Base where all the returning service members landed at the end of the war. I want to go to Vietnam as a form of closure for my family. p.s. I am an Av-Geek as well. Mentour Pilot and 74 Gear plus the planes landing and ALL the air disaster documentaries!

America didn't lose a single battle, the war was lost in Congress and because the leftist mainstream media was whipping up anti-war protest. The death knell came when Democrats like senators Joe Biden and John Kerry voted to cut off funding for South Vietnam. At the time, Henry Kissinger was using China to fight the Soviet Union but now the situation has changed since China has become bellicose and is aiming for world domination. Vietnam has got its chance now since it's the only country in the region which has the guts to stand up to China.

Just make a trip to VN , you will see that the Vietnamese people are not rancorous at all . The past was already left behind and our former enemies ( the Chinese , the French and the Americans ) are today very welcome in our country , except if they ( especially the Chinese ) plan another bad `coup` to us again

seeing the crashed helicopter ep 17 really got to me. i will also visit there as some closure on the american war.

The reason why central Vietnam has so many quiet hill side scenic roads is because these roads are very dangerous, they caused so many accidents in the past, that's why 2-3 tunnels have been dug through the ,mountains in the past decade for cars and trucks, they cut back the time and accidents ......if you pay attention there are a lot of small shrines along these hillside roads, as local people set up for the victims of these car accidents .

The Ho Chi Minh road was built only as a backup plan in case of war or the roads from north to south along the coast were damaged by war or natural disaster. Because Vietnam's geography is narrow in the central region, in the history of Vietnam it is easy to be divided into two parts, so this road has very few vehicles, but when there is a war, weapons will be transported by this road.

The transport aircraft is a C-130. In the DMZ it was "infamous" for gunship role, especially at night, when NVA convoys were most active. My uncle, my dad's older brother, was killed by one of these. He was a truck driver for the NVA. Actually his remain still burried in one of the cemetery along HCM highway in Ha Tinh province that i'm quite sure you have passed by on your way. A bit of sad history here for sure. But life go on. Have fun in VN!

Hiya Paddy, I love this. With every new video, it just gets better and better. Amazing drone footage. Perfect tunes. Why watch TV when you have Paddy Doyle? You always make me smile. Brilliant as always. Love you dancing. It makes me nervous for you when you get low on fuel. Can you carry a little bottle, in your basket, for emergencies? Very informative regarding the war. So sad how many lives were lost. The planes and helicopters were huge. It always amazes me how they get into the sky. Very informative about visas. And always great to hear you have taken time with Miss P. Beautiful video. You are a tonic. Always feel-good vibes. Very uplifting. Thank you. Have a wonderful week.

Paddy, i cannot stand to watch stuffy nosed travel documentaries on ‘normal’ TV anymore. They do absolutely nothing for me, and compare in no way to this raw, off the beaten path, real, honest and spectacular documentaries you are churning out week after week. I cannot wait to just get home and experience another country from your perspective. This is the standard, and you are absolutely nailing it. Thank you 🙏🤌😊

I never knew how beautiful Viet Nam is. Guess they have come a long way since the war. All I ever knew was what my oldest son’s Dad would say about being a Marine there and how awful the war was. Unfortunately I have lost them both. Thank you for showing the beauty there and the warmth of the wonderful people there. Take care and happy travels. Maybe carry some fuel bags with you to save walking if you run out. 🙏☮🤗

Brought back such wonderful memories when I did the trail 5 years ago. Still as beautiful as ever!

Glad you did not run out of gas Paddy! Seeing the military museum and all those old war relics, is sobering. I am obsessed with airplanes myself. That must be while you are such a good drone pilot. You always provide use with beautiful scenic shots of Vietnam countryside. Great video like always!

Can't wait for the Hai Van Pass. Glorious time was had a few years back. It's stunning 😍👌

Gorgeous views. Thanks so much. Totally enjoyed it.

ah thanks!

Great video, and I agree with you….that section of the trip was the best, and barren…no food options. After Hoi An, I suggest you hit the coast (eventually) at Quy Nhon, then enjoy the coast all the way to Phan Rang Thap Cham. I know the One Pack Wanderers did not like Nha Trang, but on either side of it the coast is beautiful. For a night or 2 or reset/ recharge…it’s good. Craft beer! Beach bars!

The type of freedom one truely desires.

Bringing back some great memories. I did it the opposite direction in 2020 just before covid hit hard. Yeah there is that 200km stretch where there is virtually no people or traffic. Amazing. I am planing on doing it again this fall. Hoping they have the 90 day visas by then.

Caught up to Episode 17! Amazing takes & love the music👊👊🔥

Ok I just checked VIsa Top website in Vietnam released 29 April 2022, You can apply for 3 months visa like before, but it's a one time entry, you have to leave after 3mths and cannot extend after 3mths, and cannot leave and come back during those 3mths even if the time is still valid, (eg. stay for 1-2mths and leave and come back) .......the current 1mth visa allows you to do 1 day (couple hours) border run through Cambodia and Laos many times and come back. ..........Back to the video, In Vietnam you can buy a separate bottle of gasoline for back up if you plan to travel to remote areas. A 1 litre Coke bottle will do ....

I can't believe that my country is so beautiful. Thank you so much

Good afternoon, Paddy! Thank you so much for sharing another interesting video. I haven't been to this area, even though I was a former tour guide in my native country. Have a good week with best wishes from 🇬🇧! 😘😘

Do a food tour with the same guide that Steph and Pete used when you get to Hoi An (best guide I've seen so far). They also did the basket boat rides and bicycle through the countryside, which looked really nice. And many people do cooking classes while there. Lots of stuff to do in the area.

As always ... Nice Video Paddy 😊

Thanks Paddy, for bringing even more great memories flooding back to me, from the war museum and the beautiful Hue city. Did you get to see the young Vietnamese boy band in one of the bars in Hue, such good entertainment! A friend of mine had a panic attack whilst in the tunnels there, that was quite amusing too!! 😂😂 with you all the way mate, take care 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Thank you Paddy 🙏 Your videos about my country Vietnam is the best in youtube. Please don't miss the coastal road in Ninh Thuan province. It is a coastal road that you should visit at least once in your life. I really want to see its beauty through your drone footage. ❤💯🏖🏞⛽

Hi Paddy, I don't know if you will still be in Hue by the time you read this message but if you are I recommend you go and visit the temple named Từ Hiếu Temple. This is the temple that the Father of Mindfulness was ordained at aged 16. His name is Thich Nhat Hanh. His story, his life, is well worth checking out. There is not a lot to see there but the bell alone is worth the visit. I'm sure it's the bell from "The bell chant". The place has an energy to it.

As a Vietnamese, thank you for doing this series.

DMZ, this is where I spent most of my childhood, reading books, getting on the airplane's cockpit and imagine piloting the airplane here. The Long Bien bridge that you crossed has a little bit of history too. It's the bridge people crossed to claim their new country/side (North or South Vietnam)

Zed! 😁 Love the series Paddy, and the Thailand videos

Is that khe sahn.....fascinated by the vietnam war.the battle for hue....incredible.such a beautiful country....great vid too👏👏

Vietnam beautiful, I love Vietnam

Khe Sanh had an awesome place to have BBQ chicken when I stayed there though I did have a mate who pretty much lives in the region (pre Covid) guide me. Brought back some great memories doing the road trip from Phong Nha and the Museum.

One of the most enjoyable things about watching this vlog is seeing how happy you are, Paddy. Stunning scenery! But you were in a concerning situation being low on fuel whilst out in a place where seeing another person or vehicle was rare. But you weren't that bothered! Wow! Glad you made it to Hue. Hopefully you got to watch the Women's Euro Final and watched the Lady Lionneses bring football home to England! ⚽️ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Hi Paddy, as usual another great VLOG. I particularly like the intro music as it suggests that a great video is coming up and you most certainly deliver with that!! I also liked the accompanying music throughout the VLOG too. I hope you enjoy Da Nang and Hoi An just as much as I did when I was there. If you get time take a look (at night) at the Dragon Bridge in Da Nang. It emits flames out of the mouth of the dragon. About every 10 minutes or so. Also I would strongly recommend going to Marble Mountain near Da Nang. Take care of yourself and keep up the excellent work you’re doing.

You are on the way to the south, there're 2 ways for you: one go to the highland throught Gia Lai, Kontum, Daklak, Lam Dong and one go throught coastal provices such as Qui Nhon, Nha Trang, Ninh Thuan, Phan Thiet for HCM destination, both have own beauty. If you chose the coastal road, don't forget to check Ninh Thuan-Binh Thuan coastal road, it's very beautifull.

Really enjoyed your camera work on this video. You music selection is also spot on.

Nice to see that the plant life has returned. As it was still quite barren from the agent orange when I visited the DMZ

Another great video/trip 👍👍

Love it Paddy!!! 🙏

Another enjoyable video - thanks. When you get to HCMC you will be able to visit the War remnants (atrocities) museum and try to hold back the tears.

Another top class video of your travels, thank you. I would love to go there see it all, but probably won't so going along with you is a real treat. Can you identify the town you stayed in with the museum and aircraft was Khe Sanh?

Looks a nice trip along the Ho Chi Minh road. Lovely weather and scenery. Hey Paddy, had a chicken kebab from outside Asawin market in Lampang last night. It wasn't quite the same as those three in the morning donor kebabs in England, you mentioned in your Hanoi food episode, but not bad...

That place was Khe Sanh....wow

Great stuff Paddy. ‘Somber’ is the right word which I didn’t have when I was there. I appreciate you articulating the same thought that I had: how could anyone fight a war in what may be one of the most beautiful countries in the world? It seems like an affront to reason and to God for those who believe in God like myself. And for what? To return to its natural state but only with so many people missing. For the first time I realized that our hippies and counter-culturalists were a lone voice in a forest and on the side of rational thinking over the greed and arrogance that was residual after the U.S. and allied dual wins Europe and in Asia. Thank you for being respectful to these places and for sharing your thoughts and feelings about them while you’re there.

Can't wait for the next episode... every single time! I regret I discovered your channel a bit late , so I could not follow all your Thailand videos on time. This time it's different , and it's even more exciting, I appreciate you explained the visasituation. Keep your private life private mate 🙂

Another fantastic video, Paddy!

Paddy, nice video again, most are!! I binge watched this Vietnam trip in the last 3 days. I have watched many of your Thai vids too, I have enjoyed them all. The parts I like the best is when your pulled over by a lady who wants to give you ice water, or crashing a wedding. ( I did the same thing once in Puerto Vallarta) THOSE are moments, in my opinion, that are the ones that matter on a trip like this. And of course the shear beautiful places, the people and way of life is why I buy the ticket. Mostly I want to thank you for being a decent human being, even with rude people that want to make sure you have a license!! You kept a cool head and keep things real. Keep it up. Best of luck to you sir.

again a great video, thanx

just one word Paddy... EPIC

Happy to see you in my hometown at Hue! Make sure you check the abandoned water park in the area!

I was very nervous that you were going to run out of petrol, what a relief LOL. Beautiful shot at the end of you pulling up in front of the fort and flag, nicely done!!!

Stunning Paddy...and i thought Canada had trees....Vietnam is amazing scenery..Thxssss

I'm with you on there be nobody around and it's just you communing with nature. What a peaceful and soul-soothing ride that must have been. I was curious, though, what you would have done had you run out of gas. I think that would have made the video that much more interesting. 😁

Love seeing your experiences from the perspective of a first time rider there.
