today we are saying good morning
good morning we are taking a little break from the beach we actually just drove up from gatlipe which
took about two hours and we are staying at this super unique resort hidden in the jungle called
gachang hills tented resort the view is amazing and we're kind of just surrounded by nature and
trees and mountains it's really beautiful here we just got our breakfast delivered so we're going to
have that first and then we're going to show you our super cool tent we ordered a lot of them yeah
actually note ordered american style breakfast but i'm going to have this rice soup this congee and
some dim sum and we also have these super cute juices orange juice and passion fruit juice
so cute and who is this we have a guest with us for breakfast today
don't remember her name told me but i don't remember i think she wants some watermelon
we heard this meow meow meow noise last night and this room comes with a cat
hello we opened the door and she was there and she went right into our room
we don't mind though because we like cats
no no no okay okay you gotta go
hello welcome to our explorer's tent so this resort takes glamping to the whole different
level we have this luxurious tent here a very very comfortable king-sized bed with the mosquito nets
on top look at how big this room is all the little decor in this room just gives it that
african safari feel which is really cool and over here on this side they actually
set up a very nice coffee station with their own coffee beans from their own coffee farm right yes
yeah and they have a grinder and we made coffee outside this morning and enjoyed the view which
was amazing and this is the bathroom look at how cute it is look at the antique sink i think
it's copper and look at all of this decor it's super nice along with the beautiful shower here
and the amazing outdoor bathtub so the tent we are staying in is perfect for couples there's a
lot of privacy it's quite romantic with the bathtub on the balcony but they have other
tents available as well such as this space which is like a common campground which is really cool
hello this is a perfect spot if you come with friends yeah definitely so much fun you all stay
in these different tents and at night you can have a barbecue roast some marshmallows by the bonfire
here i'll show you what it looks inside since this one is open and no one's staying here
okay one bed here another bed here and you're not sleeping on the ground
that's a pretty thick mattress is that easy yeah
which you need because it's quite hot right now mm-hmm
but the ac would be perfect and as we were walking around the property we also saw like a bigger
jungle villa i think that's what it's called where you can fit a full
family of four in there with really nice views and they also have some smaller
tents and i think there's like three beds and two beds in those ones too so lots of choices
this is probably horsepoo so that's a good sign that the horses will be around here somewhere
oh my god oh [ __ ] what the french put it down oh [ __ ] it's too
this is not a voice it's a donkey kunai is okay
okay let's go so there's this heart-shaped island in zhang that we want to check out
but we couldn't find much information online good thing the owners of the resort are young and
trendy and knew exactly what we were talking about i think they just started to to like open this
area oh but i'm not sure okay yeah it's very new uh it's our i think it's around this area uh the
area so from here you hike uh 20 minutes yeah go up so don't have to take the boat
uh i have to take a boat you go to the pier around here and take a boat in the mangrove forest
and it will stop and summon this area i have seen you here before
not a coincidence i'm sure i hope you're looking at me now what is this here uh street drunk gloves
thailand this is where they make gloves from all the rubber plants so drang is the first place in
thailand to have to have a rubber tree planted and now it's actually one of the major provinces
that export rubber so a lot of rubber gloves are actually made in john and possibly condoms took
me you got the tickets i got the ticket to take us to the other side with the car
guess how much it is the 100 25 baht for the car yeah for everything
and us that's like 75 cents okay i think we should get going
so what do i do oh wait i think the bikes go first
wow
wow this is so interesting there are motorbikes on here cars and also just people
walking onto this what do you even call it like a platform a floating floating device
i guess it's just a normal way of commuting across this river here that's why it's so
cheap because it's for locals who live here to use this you can actually drive
to the other side too but it's a long long detour like an extra 30 minutes detour
you're obviously not from here no okay where to now we have to figure out where we're supposed
to go so this little island is it an island or just a village i think this is a village
this village is called which is supposed to uh have that beautiful is it mangrove first
it's not right yeah we're gonna go hiking to this viewpoint called
how you're so stylish you're the one who brought me these socks were you in a hurry yeah
we need to change shoes because we need to hike 20 minutes to go up to the viewpoint
no we have to hop on a boat first to go to the spot and then we have to hike 20 minutes
it's five o'clock now and the sun is setting at 6 30 so we have to gotta go we gotta
there's a boat watch your step
okay
15 minutes okay we might catch the sunset then yeah we'll make it he said we will make it
we already running late for the sunset
and i forgot my drone phone you left it charging at the shop yeah
paralyzed like no disguise
paradise the grandest prize he just gave us two pairs of gloves
because we have to climb up the rocks and the rocks are sharp
so we should wear clothes oh my gosh where are we going what are we doing i'm so excited
okay i'm a bit nervous okay you go up first okay where are your clips
this is definitely undiscovered okay
okay okay wow oh do you look at that this is so cool are you okay are you

we made it up here for the sunset it is super worth it it is amazing up here
we are on top of a mangrove forest and you can see all the islands here there is
all the way down to saturn where gatlipe is where we were
is it beautiful up there it's beautiful and over there this part is
they call it heart shape island can't see it from here but no it will show you through the drone
we weren't sure where this was so we kind of just drove today to this place to try to find it
but actually the best way is to call ahead and book someone to like book a guide to come and
bring you here because it's not like a popular place you can get to by yourself
so we'll actually leave a link to the number of this guide that took us here today we're very
lucky that they were willing to take us because we showed up at 4 30 almost 5. unannounced
unannounced so they found someone to take us and it cost us some or it will cost us 800 baht
which is really good it's a lot of work to come up here and to
arrange it to last minute for us we're just going to enjoy the sunset up here hope you enjoyed our
little adventure in dragon full of natural beauty if you enjoyed the video please give
