The trip was worth twice the price. As far as length,- your timing is great. No matter the number of minutes, the content makes the minutes fly by. Other Tubers spend so much time running their cams on nothing that 12 minutes seem an hour, where your 20+ minutes seem just seconds. Thank you for the trip!

Amazing vlog, 30 mins? Hell yeah! Feels more like 10 mins and over too soon 😊

Great vlog... That whole East Coast is delightful... No problem with 30mins at all, keep up the good work.

Your adventures are truly inspiring the views and the to ff the beaten path least compared to most videos provides a broader appreciation for Thailand. Great work and the Honda was a bargain.

I just did this hike last week. You are spot on in your observations. The temple in the cave is one of the most awe-inspiring, magical places I have ever seen. We spent about an hour and a half by the temple once we arrived. The hike is strenuous, I am 64 years young, but absolutely worth the effort. We also took the first hike over the first mountain as well. There are some great spots for photos up on the first trail. Wear good shoes, pack water and go for it. We also had lunch at the restaurant on the way out. Good food and a wonderful coconut smoothie. It seems like you are about 30 days ahead of me as you travel down the coast. I am currently in Hua Hin. Your videos gave the inspiration to rent a car, as I have never driven a car with the steering wheel on the right. I'm not sure I would drive in Bangkok, but once I adjusted, felt comfortable driving down here. Keep blazing the trail for me, and I will happily follow. Brad-Salt Lake City :)

Thanks for sharing! Those 30 minutes went really fast! I did visit that cave/sinkhole 8 years ago. I am not the fittest person on the planet, but i took it very slow with many 5 minutes pit stops on the way up. It was tough, but worth it. What I learned was that if you want to see the sun shine on the pagoda down there, you have to be early. We was too late when we where there due to problems with the rental car. We might go back this year, and than I will take the first boat in the morning to get the photo I want.

you have the best Thailand show on YT!

We don't watch him mouth his mouth with food, as in Thailand very other vlog.. Or face close ups of watching something, wasting view time b You need to be less snarky and offer something..

I've done many cave adventures in many countries but this one is the one I wish I had done for sure. Now thanks to your vlog I have seen the awesomeness of one of the most stunning caves in the world in my humble opinion. From start to finish the staff were so obliging the facilities over the top the visitors so immersed in enjoying where they were and what they were seeing. Who could ask or wish for anything more or better. Thank you for an awesome and enlightning adventure into the cave world of LOS. Bushyboy Oz.

Another wonderful production - THANKS AGAIN STL! 30 minutes is not too long. Where else can we have breakfast, go to the beach, then on a breathtaking hike in Phraya Nakhon National Park, relax a lil’ and take boat ride home in 30 minutes?

Love the park and would pay even more than just $6 US for that the views were amazing. I am fine with 30 minutes so no worries. Thanks for sharing. Have an amazing adventure.

For me half hour flew by on your tour of the park. I hope to visit Hua Hin from Phuket within a few weeks. Thanks for all you do, keep up the good content.

I like the long trips too...well honestly i took a break half way but still watched all. Very enjoyable what a beautiful park!

Your positive attitude and ability to appreciate the little things is infectious. Love ur videos! Thanks for sharing.

30 minutes is all good. Think about the good tv shows, they’re 40-50ish minutes and that’s so good cos you get right into it. Those 20 min tv show episodes feel like a tease, especially when you only get one a week. And we binge multiple episodes at once if they’re available to watch. If this is the content you want, that ain’t close to being too long. Also not against an intro but I’d prefer a shortened one, like just a very brief summary of around 20 seconds or less. I mean we’re going to see it all in the next few minutes anyway. LOVE the bird in the intro tho, make sure you keep that! As usual though, great content from you. I watch every one you make and can’t get enough 👌

30 minutes is not too long at all. Great stuff!

Wow, what a beautiful adventure. I totally agree, well worth the money for the experience. The park is well cared for, as are the visitors. It helps Thai families earn their wages too. Why complain about a cheap afternoon outing that is so stunning in it's views.

Thanks kindly Peter but got the DOA notice from YT again... (will copy n paste my earlier explanation) "Fewer viewers are choosing to watch this video. People are clicking less on this video’s title or thumbnail. Improving the title or thumbnail of this video might increase viewership" My thoughts same as last time. A new video gets assigned failure or success within the first few hours after posting. This one appears failed. Unless one adds a gob-smacked face etc thumbnail, or butts, boobs etc, or 'WE DIDN'T EXPECT THIS..." blah blah on the title, good luck getting in the YT algorithm. 90% of vid views come not from subscribers, rather from YT's 'recommended' and 'up next' (if your vid made it 'in' that is, this one did not). Again, thankfully I enjoyed making it :) STL

@@SideTripLife Those park rangers take tremendous pride in their work and country. Truly inspirational. Also, I always get to the ticket counter a few minutes before opening time to be the first in the park. Even taking the hike instead of the boat, I'm almost always the only one on the "challenging" trail (that's when you can see them sweeping the first part of the trail). On several occasions I was the only one in the cave...absolutely magical. Thanks for sharing your experience, talent, and personality thru your channel!

I wish my video looked as good as yours. I just did this about 10 days after watching your first coast drive to Dolphin Beach. I was heading back to Hua Hin and saw signs so turned around . Strange how a week later everything looks busy. I thought everything was shut down at Dolphin Beach when I was there. And only a few Thai on the hike. I didn't understand about the boats so did the whole hike. Thanks for videos. I have done some cool because of them.
