Welcome to Koh Samui, a breathtaking island in the Gulf of Thailand. In this video, we are discovering if this paradise known as Koh Samui is truly the best island in Thailand. From the beautiful palm tree-lined white sand beaches of Fisherman's Village, Bophut, and Bangrak it seems hard to beat. It's easy to sit back and relax just taking in the crystal-clear turquoise waters of this beautiful destination. Whether planning a future trip or seeking a virtual escape, this video will transport you to an island of beauty, adventure, and amazing food. Thanks for watching 😊

After at least one month in over 70 countries and over 500 islands, I chose Samui as my base of operations for Covid and ended up buying a place there. We now use Samui as an unbelievable travel base for travel in the east and Bucerias, Mexico for the western world base. We have spent most of the last 8 months travelling SE Asia also and have been to 10/11 SE Asia countries (still no Papua New Guinea). Reach out if you want a drink and some Samui living tips :) Have fun!!

We stayed for 5 days in Fisherman's Village at the Peace Resort the last week of November 2022. Loved the quiet community and the great selection of restaurants, market food and beach life. We hired a private driver for a day trip around the island which was great to see. We also spent an evening on Chawenga Beach Road at some of the pubs. Fun time to have a few drinks and enjoy some music. Great trip...would love to go back.

@BrianandCarrie Год назад

Hi, Lisa. Thank you for sharing, we would go back to Koh Samui as well. We should have looked into getting a driver. With the amount we paid to get to some of the places we visited, we probably came close to hiring someone privet. Thank you for watching and commenting! Cheers!!🍻

@bagelsandmash Год назад

Another great video-- you guys do a great job mixing images with just enough commentary! You're both just so darn engaging too! So we (my wife and I) were in Koh Samui last summer and it was sadly our least favorite place we went in Thailand. We did LOVE the Elephant sanctuary we went to-- but the beaches were a little MEH. The Tourists- mostly Germans and Australians just were SMOKING everywhere and not wearing masks (which were required) and that in turn really seemed to turn off the near by locals who just assumed all the foreigners act the same (I can't blame them) so they weren't nearly as friendly and nice as other Thai locals in other locales. But I have to say- your video really makes me want to give it another try. Thanks!

I'm really enjoying your videos. You come across as the most "genuine" and informative travel couple on YT, and I've seen a lot. Vietnam and Thailand were on my list, but I just can't take the heat. I chose Ecuador just over a year ago, and it looks like I lucked out. I've been to the Gallapagos and will visit the Amazon soon. Maybe someday I'll visit the hotter places like Thailand, but Cuenca fits me like a glove. The 8,600' elevation keeps the Temps at 55-75 most of the time. If I head south to the beaches, it goes up into the 80's+ Thanks, and stay safe!❤

Best advice about bargaining in Thailand is - just know that 10 Baht means so much more for them than the 0.29 USD means to us.. Hoping to make our first trip to Thailand soon - just enjoying our anniversary at a lovely resort - and then spending two days in Bangkok. But this area of Thailand you are visiting looks like a great place to plan for our future visits.

I didn’t learn how to use flip-flops till I was well into my 40s. You have to squeeze your toes every step on purpose. Practice that with your left and right foot over and over slowly. It will seem tedious and ridiculous but your body will soon take over and do it automatically. It’s worth the work and much easier than learning piano or wearing Jesus sandals. or the retiree sandals. You got this! Thanks for all of your videos. Our favorite is Portugal so far also.

We will be in Thailand for a month in February 2024 and just discovered your videos. Your content is some of the best travel vlogging we've found. One question we are hoping you can answer about the Fisherman's Village, Bangrak, and Bophut areas of Ko Sumai ... is proximity to the airport an issue? Just wondering about noise and the potentially jarring experience of low-flying planes overhead. We were thinking we needed to find beaches and accommodations that put us further from the runway but maybe that's not a big deal? Thanks for any perspective you can share about that. Cheers!

Nice summary of Koh Samui! My wife is there at the moment. What condo did you stay at as that fits what we are looking for as well.

@BrianandCarrie Год назад

Hi, Toivo. There is a link to the place we stayed in the video description. Thank you and safe travels. Cheers 🍻

Love the tours through southeast Asia. Would love to go. I don't want to be rude so I hope you don't take this the wrong way but to get rid of the lights flickering in your videos you need to adjust the framerate of your camera. I think Asia has a 50Hz frequency to their power so a 25, 50 or 100 frames per second should help. I think.

@BrianandCarrie Год назад

Not rude at all, John. I have tried to shoot at a higher framerate but it doesn't seem to help as much as we would like. The input is very much appreciated. We are still trying to master this film, editing, and RU-vid thing!! 😆 Cheers!!🍻

@michellelkphoto1543 Год назад

First, I have to say, that you are both more relaxed in Southeast Asia than you were in Europe. Though I suppose that could be because it was a brand new adventure and you were still learning. 🙂 May I ask if you have a link to the place you stayed at there in Koh Samui? Thanks!

@BrianandCarrie Год назад

Hi Michelle! We are loving our time here and I'm sure the appearing more relaxed is partly comfort level combined with new exciting adventures 😊....we're happy to know it's noticeable! I just added the link to our place in Koh Samui in the video description - thanks for the reminder to do so. Thanks so much for watching!! Cheers 🍻

Crocs could be alternative.

@lukew5255 Год назад

I might get hater’s but my favourite sandals are Crocs they dry quickly have a strap good for going in the water if there’s Stoney bottom and last for years I have done 100s of kilometres on them.

@BrianandCarrie Год назад

You won't get hater's here Luke, Crocs are the #1 suggestion so far. 🤣 Thank you for watching! Cheers 🍻

Loving your videos I’m coming in June with my Son where is the place you are staying ? Looks like my kind of place x

@BrianandCarrie Год назад

Replay condos are about a half mile from Fisherman Village halfway between Fisherman Village and the beach bar where we had a beer in the video. The link is in the description. Thank you for watching and safe travels!! Cheers!!🍻

@@BrianandCarrie thanks for the reply my son wants to bring his drone with him - how easy is it to fly one over there as he’s heard there’s lots of regulations ?

@karelmuller6716 Год назад

loved the locality, it seems so quiet. Did you pick the right month, was it due to filming a lot in the morning or tourism still bit down there in Koh Samui? And how about swimming in the ocean guys?

@BrianandCarrie Год назад

Hi, Karel. Tourism is still down a bit from covid but we do head to some other places on Koh Samui that were a bit busier. The water is really warm, we address that in next week's video. 😀 Thank you for watching!! Cheers!!🍻

@robhawkins6711 Год назад

Hi, Enjoying your videos. At the 20min mark you stopped for a drink at a beach bar. Which one was it? Thank you.

@BrianandCarrie Год назад

Hi, Rob. There are so many great little bars on the beach. We entered from the beachside and can't recall which one that is. The beer is cold and the view is great from anyone of them!! Thank you for watching and safe travels! Cheers!!🍻

We are moving to Thailand from florida in the end of 2023. Still havnt decided on a place yet. What would you say is your favorite so far. We love beautiful beaches

@BrianandCarrie Год назад

Hi, Trevor. We did a couple of videos from Koh Samui and Phuket that may help you decide. We preferred Koh Samui, which is smaller and not as busy as Phuket., Thank you for watching! Cheers!!🍻

@vaguelyvagrant9694 Год назад

I've been to Thailand at least 20+ times, but never to Samui. After watching this video, I want to go. If you can't wear flip-flops, try out some Vibram Five Fingers. They're great for the beach.

@BrianandCarrie Год назад

We really had a great time. Our second Koh Samui video will be out this weekend and will show other parts of the island. Thank you for watching and commenting! Cheers 🍻
