Burbank costs more than LAX!
Agreed when i did the 6am flight the airport was empty, so nice
I don't travel much so my stay at Marriott Courtyard was very nice
Wow! I learned soooo much today! Thank you😀

Best travel advice I’ve received is to not travel to poor countries
I try to time our flights so we arrive at our destination hotel around check-in time, especially if we're not renting a car to hold our stuff.
19:50 – full agreement – I save carefully for vacations, book them, then pay them off in 1-3 large chunks before the monthly cycle ends. Here's a tip: Write out a check to the payment address of the credit card you plan to use while you are away. Leave the envelope with someone you trust, and have them chuck it in the mail when you're halfway through your trip. It will arrive and be posted right around the time you return – everything you spent on the trip will be fully or partially paid off by the time you get back!
8:25 (ish) – I think there are some exceptions to the rule about avoiding "tourist restaurants" GF and I ate at an Italian place on the grounds of Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen and the food was quite good.
as usual your videos are clear, well spoken, and most of all interesting .
OC Girl and my partner do the same thing. She researches everything food-related in a destination, and we sort of do the opposite: we find attractions around where the food is!
I hate the idea of paying $5 for water also. One thing the Coachella Music and Arts Festival is famous for is mandating all bottled water sold at all of their vendors are never more than $2. Bottled water at Coachella has been $2 since its very first festival in 1999.
Dear old Rick Steves! A real legend…Watched all his European series. Glad we did🙏
Fantastic tips! (Mona Lisa is delish!).
I would like to know what kind of " general emergency medicine" you would take on your trips . Also: e.g., when we had visited Brazil, people told us: " don't eat anything which cannot be peeled, don't drink tap water or brush your teeth with it, etc.". I would have liked to receive some travel tips of this kind.
What’s the best way to figure out if a hotel has a lounge or not?
Thanks for pulling together all of the great information 😃
Do airline miles expire? Delta or American Airlines
I need you know that your videos have been one of the most usefull tools in my english learning, specialy in mi listening. Thank you so much.
"It was a fantastic place" …rotf lol
I have to put in a pitch for national car rental. As a business traveler I am allowed to book a midsized and with national I can book that and get whatever car is available on the emerald aisle. It's awesome.
I really enjoyed your video. ⭐️
Thanks for Sharing! 👍🏼
Greetings from Albania. 👋🏼🇦🇱
Great advice!! All of it! As we start to travel again, it's good to get a refresher on some stuff we've forgotten. We LOVE Rick Steves and have been to his office for presentations several times (we don't live too far from his HQ in Edmonds, WA). My neighbor is one of his Europe tour guides, even! But!!! You're quickly becoming another of our favorite travel gurus! 😉👍
Tried to watch this yesterday, but YouTube wasn't loading properly. Caught it on the replay. Great advice. Can't wait to visit Japan. 🤙
Great video ! Always good to learn more great travel tips. Thanks Chris
I went to Vegas on the cheap (saved $700 from work used Spirit stayed at Strat(strat was the most important place for me to go to on the first trip here for Insanity/observation tower)+ Luxor loved both them and they both really were good value on snaptravel or expedia can't really remember which one I got back from Vegas and still had $300) I had falafel/hummus a bunch from the same food truck and del taco somewhere near ross Dfl….I want to go again when vegas is HOT like in August…I might spend more on a hotel….out of the more expensive ones which one is best out of Mandalay Bay/Golden Nugget on fremont/Ceasars palace/Circa(not circus circus but the one on fremont)????…my main interests are Pools(most important) and the Room(nice carpeting/non tacky furniture)….on cheaper ones which do like the best…. Sahara/Excalibur/flamingo/NY NY…by cheap I mean you can book for about $25-$40+ $35 resort fee)
Hi Chris. Love all the advice you saved in the live stream. My favorite advice that I got was to do and see the things that you really want. Because you never know if you will ever return to that place or might not be available anymore.
I’m really more in line with your Mom’s and the OC girl’s advice.
I also think that the old proverb “When in Rome do as the Romans do.” serves as the best ever travel advice, as well. In other words, the only way to truly get a feel for the destination that you’re visiting is to live and experience it as the locals do (but in style; no roughing it or cheapskate moves).
Great job Chris; a very entertaining and informative presentation, as usual. 👍🏻
Chris, were you the one who said that if the restaurant has a good view, chances are the food isn’t that good? That advice has also stuck with me.
