We travel with a Microsoft Surface everywhere we go. I edit my videos on it & use it to backup my pictures and vides while we travel. It’s light and the best travel laptop on the market in my opinion.


We use Sony Alpha series cameras to film our videos. They are compact so you don’t look like a super tourist when you take great pictures and videos while you travel.


We use Manfrotto Tripods. They are compact, travel well, and honestly I would not use another tripod for my nice cameras.


Travel Plug that works in pretty much any country & has four USB ports. A must for any traveler.


Want to grab some great gear? We have used Osprey Packs for years & swear by them. Check them out here

DO'S and DON'TS in Thailand

DO'S and DON'TS in THAILAND



If you are travelling to Bangkok, Thailand, taking the time to learn about the culture is very important and appreciated by the locals. By watching this video, you are on the right track to understanding Thai Culture!

We are here to give you the most important Do’s and don’ts in Thailand.


In this video we explain you 10 do's and don'ts for when you are visiting Thailand! These cultural tips will get you started when you just arrive in Thailand or your trip to Asia.

by Co van Kessel Bangkok Tours.


*
Looking for an authentic and unique adventure? Co van Kessel bike tours and boat tours provides a refreshing alternative to the tired tourist experience. We do not battle the crowds at clichéd destinations promoted in guide books, but turn your attention to quaint local communities and charming excursions into the fascinating lifestyle and culture of real Thai people. Every day is different and every tour is a surprise as we focus not on destinations, but lose ourselves in the enchantment of the journey itself.

Co van Kessel, an innovative and adventurous Dutchman, pioneered bicycle tours in Bangkok more than 30 years ago. As a longtime resident and self-professed lover of Bangkok, he understood very well the picture of accelerated urban development (gridlocked traffic, concrete towers, and choking pollution) that has plagued the recent image of the city. He also had a hunch that this was not what Bangkok or Thailand was all about.

Making it his goal to re-discover Bangkok, Co spent thousands of hours on his mountain bike exploring the vast network of local streets, alleyways, footpaths and canals between the main urban thoroughfares. What he found, lurking behind the facade of modernization, were hidden worlds of peace and tranquility, a picture of “real” Thai life that has remained unchanged for countless decades; an identity of a city that is true to the Thai people, yet largely unknown to outsiders.

Whether it’s the colorful sights and smells of the local markets, the fascinating life of locals along the canals, or the surprising existence of bountiful green belts, Co discovered the essence of what makes Bangkok one of Asia’s most captivating cities. Since then, it has been his mission to share these discoveries with the rest of the world.

What we do

Our mission at Co van Kessel Bangkok Tours is to provide our guests with a singularly unique travel experience in Thailand. All our tours use Co’s extensive topographical knowledge of the greater Bangkok area as well as his keen eye for the interesting to take you where nobody else can or will.

We aim not to bore you with talk, but to immerse you in an experience where your individual fascinations emerge.

Bicycles, boats, and our feet become the tools we use to gain access to the previously inaccessible, behind-the-scenes lifestyle of the Thai. Here the roots of an ancient culture will become evident in a way you never could have imagined.

5 Things American Tourists Shouldn't Wear in Europe

Grab some of our gear

Please Note: Young People Wear Many of These Styles Throughout Europe. These tips are geared toward 35+ year old travelers. Thanks for watching!

Grab a Wolters World Shirt


Heading to Europe & Not Sure What to Pack? Here are a few things that my fellow US travelers may want to avoid packing if they are traveling to Europe.
1. Baseball Caps: Europeans in general do not wear baseball caps, especially backwards. You would be better served to wear a more traditional hat. You will see an occasional NY Yankee hat, but why not buy the fancy hat you always wanted instead?
2. Athletic Wear: Europeans tend to wear athletic wear to do sports, not to wear around town. There is a trend of more athleisurewear in Europe, but it is not to the extent that there is in US.
3. Khakis: the omnipresent US male pant choice is not something you will see too often in Europe. Go for colored pants or jeans. If you want khaki like pants wear Chinos instead of Dockers. The pants you will see are a thinner cut or skinnier fit than in the US.
4. Oversized US University Sweatshirts.
5. Sport Shoes or High Heals: US sport shoes and white socks are not quite as popular in Europe as they are in the US. You may be better off with Urban Street shoes like Vans instead. Also, women should be careful with high heels as with all the cobblestone it is easy to hurt your ankles.

Top 10 Rudest Countries in the World

This gesture of raising the middle finger has a long history, dating back around 2,500 years. It was used by members of a particular nation as a way to physically poke, taunt, and offend one another. Centuries later, the Roman historian Tacitus documented an incident where advancing Roman soldiers were met with this rude gesture from the tribesmen of another nation. Coincidentally, these two nations just so happen to be on our list; we will identify them in this video. It’s important to know that, judging the rudeness of nations can be subjective and varies greatly based on individual experiences and cultural perspectives. Some countries may be perceived as having more assertive or direct communication styles, which could be mistaken for rudeness in certain contexts. However, these perceptions may not accurately reflect the views of entire populations, as they can be influenced by stereotypes and unique personal encounters.

So, today on Discover The Globe, we're going to be taking a look at Top 10 Rudest Countries in the World.

The Top 3 Most Innocent Yet Offensive Gestures From Other Countries



You have to understand that every country has their own culture and beliefs. If you’re traveling to a different country it will do you a whole lot of good to get a good understanding of the country’s culture and taboos. This way you won’t get into trouble by accidentally offending people.

So please do take the time to do your research about certain gestures that may be considered as a “no-no” in that particular country. As seen in the video, even the most innocent gestures can be interpreted differently.

When traveling, we also highly suggest to bring a high quality thermo sensitive memory foam travel pillow. A memory travel pillow can help keep you comfortable and relaxed throughout your flight.
