The busker playing the acoustic lap guitar at 7:43 into the video is called Kaylon Wins ( Mr Kaylon ) his facebook page can be found here facebook.com/mrkaylon/ and RUclips channel ruclips.net/user/KaylonProoffeatured
I thought I was the only one to have a big grin in my computer room watching that guy GRUM is GUITAR! Was I the only one wanting to have his music to play again later? I would have paid just to sit next to him, eat some good food,play my hand drum to his grumming and just enjoy that music! Ahh well.
Gabriel I love your simple walk and talk approach,nothing feels forced or affected,its really works and shows really what travelling is all about.Good to see you walking the streets of London.I still appreciate your style most compared with other travel vloggers...Idk maybe it is a generational thing !!! and remembering a time when people just did their thing without it being announced to the world in any major way,its good to see places and also know when people have some appreciation and background to the places.
Hello Gabriel... You are amazing... Top video... Many many thanks... You have my respect you do a excellent job... You are a great man... Compliment in all... Super... I am Italian... Mille Grazie... Bravissimo in tutto... Take care of yourself... God bless you...
Fantastic. Absolutely love this vlog. I'm a Londoner and you really captured the vibe. This made me laugh 03:27 and this busker is incredible 08:35. Also the Lamb Chops looked delish! I made my own London vlog when I was there and it is hard to film and edit, you make it look so easy. Looking forward to the next chapter!
The City of London is more or less the old Roman Londinium, and you can visit remnants of the Roman Wall that once encircled Londinium. There's a section still standing near the Tower of London.
Hi Gabriel, I loved the music. What a voice the first young man had. One of my favorite songs. Thank you again for taking us along on your wonderful travels. This is truly a beautiful city.. Shakespeare and you resemble a lot..😊
Nice video of London👍 I live here. I was born here. One of the best ways to see London is to just walk by the Thames, or the Thames Path as they call it. Also, take the river bus to Greenwich or Kew for a bit of greenery (and history). Great that you went to Borough market - lovely food especially at Xmas. Love the Tate Modern - well worth a visit. London has the best buskers👌. Looking forward to your next video from London
Well done Gabriel, this video is greatly entertaining, the quality audio and video was top, loved the 'buskers', especially the guy playing 'laptop' style. Thanks and take care.
14:45 Oh yeah Gabriel. I do remember Max Headroom. The computer generated character from the mid 1980s (though computer technology wasn't yet that advanced.(He was actual a 'real' figure in inventive make-up made to 'look' computer generated). Also he (or an impostor) momentarily interrupted a broadcast of Doctor Who on a Chicago based TV station back November 1987!
Lots and lots of different atmospheres, feelings, situations and historical interests in such a short video, Gab you really capture what is like for a traveler to be in a city like London nowadays, superb job, keep it up, cheers.
Thank you once more for a no-nonsense, interesting video. A trip down memory lane for me after living in central London on late 60s, 70s and most of the 80s. Lucky enough have friends who made it as pop/rock stars which gave London an added dimension for me. Hinde, yes, pronounced Hi-nd (Hi as in hello), Southwark, pronounced, Suth-uk (uk as in Yuk). Thanks again.
Hi Gabriel I enjoyed the London video. I live near Cambridge which is about60miles from London. We have a packed lunch when we go visit and then a meal near the station before coming home. We usually visit museums. Xx
Congratulations Gabriel, I just saw an article on my tablet about the top RUclips travel channels and there you were! I usually don't comment but I have been following for a few years now. I really enjoy your travels and look forward to watching your channel whenever you post a video. Thanks for all your hard work! Carol 😊👍🖐✌
You just missed the 'South Bank' area. If you'd carried on a little past Londo Bridge, you would have reached it. It has the National Theatre, National Film Theatre and the Queen Elizabeth Concert Hall. There is also usually plenty of free entertainment, good food and a book market. Just beyond it is one of the best markets in London, Borough Market. It's particularly renowned for it's many food stalls.
Normandy was not in France at that time It was given to the Norsemen by Henri the simple and that is why the channel islands are British as they were already part of the Duchy of Normandy when we were invaded in 1066
My favourite Sunday afternoon walk ie the Thames Walk ("Tems" walk named after the latin Thamesis). I prefer heading west where you can walk past national gallery, Oxo Tower and London Eye
Awesome video Gabe! I literally walked the same streets a few years ago. The restaurant in the Tate Modern supposedly has the best fish and chips. You could spend days in the museums. The Tower of London tour is super interesting. Though my favorite was a day trip to Windsor Castle and town. Looking forward to more London!
Nice vid Gabe , brings back a few memories 😊 the fires of 1666 were a cleanser for the city back then & fire was the only effective way to acheave it 🤫anyway, nice vids from Iceland so far, keep it up dude 😉✌🏼
The Golden Hinde is so cool. That replica has also sailed around the world two or three times I believe. Was a hidden gem I found while wandering through London one day! Can't wait to be back in july.
Hi Gabriel, just a bit of information, the Tower of London, is where all the Crown Jewls are kept. I'm pleased that you're enjoying my beautiful London. How much longer will you stay? Try and go to Camden Town.
Nice, Gabriel. London is my home city. I found the sony cam footage fine. Audio was fine. Image quality too. Really enjoyed the guy with the guitar clip, and also your close shots of the Tower Bridge structure while you were actually on it! The vocalist on one of the tracks you played at the beginning of the video really sounded like you. I wondered if you actually sung the song. Great video :)
It's crazy. I'm about 25 minutes away from all of this and regularly drive across Tower Bridge just as an easy way to get from north to south. If you live close to London it's just something you avoid if you can but if you ever get the chance to drive through early on a Saturday or Sunday morning in the summer with no traffic you realise how much beauty and history is on your won doorstep.
Very nice Gabriel. I haven't managed to get to St.Paul's yet.However, my old friend and I are planning yet another trip down to London after the success of our last one (you can see us on a tourist boat near Tower Bridge in one of my London videos). So we'll go back, do some sight seeing , maybe St.P's this time and pick up another theatre show (42nd Street with Lulu was one of the best musicals I have ever seen). Tower of London visit is fab apart from the Crown Jewels which don't do a lot for me personally. Lots of glitter. Did't manage onto Tower Bridge so that was nice to see! You can use your 'wi-fi' bank card on the underground. Can't you use them on the buses too? Yes "tems" and "hind as in lined".
3:31 I think they've got a good case for claiming compensation right there......there's no warning signs indicating the Health & Safety risks of jumping on that turntable whilst it's spinning.
Great video👍It brings back great memories of living in London back in the 90's. London is full of history, amazing architecture, museums, art and fantastic music scene. Your video has enticed me to revisit London in the near future.
There's a problem with my GoPro 7 unfortunately, so my recent videos have been filmed with the GoPro 6. I filmed this one with my Sony a5100 to give it a try. The GoPro 7 is definitely better. I plan to get it replaced and/or get a new camera soon.
I think you will find they always have been, only difference is they used to have the telephone handset next to your face that had probably been splashed !! Now you are more likely to find a defibrillator in one than a phone.
Last year it was half that number and falling. Try getting your 'news' from a non-conspiracy site. The big problem now is knife crime but your more likely to be hit by a car than get stabbed.
I love how Gabe pronounces places the way they are actually spelt. "South-wark". "Suthurk". Southwark or South-Wharf was where all the naughty entertainments happened. From bear baiting to prostitution and gambling.
Great video when there last I stayed at the Tower hotel overlooking and next to Tower Bridge Tower of London 50 euro deal on Priceline. Nice in summer too cold in winter for me. I do enjoy al the free museums though especially the British Museum and the Tate.
@Gabriel Traveler -- do you get extended stay visas for Europe, or do you leave the Schengen zone before your 90 days are up? If you get a visa, I'd love to know which one and how.
Gabriel Traveler you spoke about the building to replace the one lost in the fire of 1666. That one, which still stands today, was completed in the early 1700s not in the sixteen hundreds.
Gabriel Traveler, according to Wikipedia the building was declared finished in 1711, though other refinements continued for some time after. I only raised the question because I remember reading that it was somewhat surprising that Christopher Wren was still alive to see the completion. However, the way things are going in Britain at the moment, I expect children will be taught that it was actually built in Somalia and stolen by the evil British. Have just seen a trailer of the new film about Mary Queen of Scots. Many of the queen’s courtiers are black. If you don’t know about her, I should tell you she was around in the fifteen hundreds. So nothing is too stupid to say now. Anyway. Britain and England are unrecognisable now. I would like the name of this country changed. It’s a shame to associate the grotesquely overcrowded, crime-infested hellhole that we have now to the green and pleasant land we used to have.
Hey Gabriel. As usual wonderful video. Looks very good with the Sony. I just got a Gopro 7 Black. What editing software do you use? I looked at your Amazon shop but did not see any.
About the phone boxes, the government wanted to get rid of them and spend over a million pounds removing them...but indeed as you said, they're a great tourist attraction :) Plus, they do look nice in the surrounds (and you can even visit the ministry of magic)
@@MsPinkwolf According to them, no one ever used them, they costed too much money to upkeep and a select few people kept breaking them and kept putting graffiti on them. Personally, I think that they are always a good backup in case mobile services collapse for whatever reason (because they are controlled by ground cables).
That would be kind of a shame if they removed them since they're such an iconic part of London. But at this point they're probably used more as urinals and crash pads than as telephones.
People used them for decades. It's only since the mobile phone became popular that they declined. And I'm pretty sure the government had nothing to do with them. They're part of British Telecom (phone company) who don't want to pay upkeep on something that's not bringing in money. (edit: oops. I'm one of those annoying people who just repeated what the last post said)
In some rural areas they now have new uses like to house a defibrillator for emergencies or a mini shops (stores). some examples in the link www.countrylife.co.uk/out-and-about/creative-uses-for-red-telephone-boxes-164288
as a brit who lives nearish London I never really understood why people dislike it as a whole. I mean there are so many different parts of London, thats drastically different from each other. How can you dislike a place thats got so many different places to it? I mean sure, there are some areas and aspects of London I dislike but dislike the whole city? mmm
Where will u go next Gabe? I'm from UK I am going to Lisbon tomorrow then onto Brazil (rio, beach towns, El Salvador)/ Argentina/ Chilie..) i have travelled Colombia and India alone as a female and many more, I like any place which is totally chaos magic.. I admire ur strength to keep going. Btw most of UK which is good vibes.. I didn't check out where u went yet, but im guessing most people don't find the best places unless they plan it, so In Scotland you have Isle of Skye, this is very interesting and perfect to tour, its like fairy land all grass hills hardly any roads, many US ppl visit, expensive food and stuff there accom u can find cheap, buses more expensive but u can hike, then u have the other islands Stornoway thats just amazing. Where i'm from In Yorkshire you have York which i'm guessing u visited and Lake District which is just amazing and further up near Carlisle, then future down South you have all of Cornwall thats a dream, then u have Scilly Isles which are all off the Cornwall coast, loads of Islands a bit mythical how u can take a boat to all these little islands, some of the islands are posh, its all pretty expensive and blaazay, these are far better than main cities such as London and Edinburgh. =)

London is expensive. Go north or west and its a lot more affordable.
Its not,that Bad right now.. the Pound is down 30%
The Uk is not called rip off Britain for nothing
Thanks for the video!!!! For me it feels like I'm walking in the streets of London!!!!

I've lived in London all my life and not once been to tower bridge! Haha.... You've inspired me to go
Wow, funny. Have fun exploring your city.

magical city- It looks mind blowing!!! and soo clean
I went in the summer. Glorious. This is my favourite city in the world easily.
Being from your generation I remember Max Headroom too, I didn't see him 3.6 metres ahead of you there though ;-) ...
Hi Gabriel, I loved the music. What a voice the first young man had. One of my favorite songs. Thank you again for taking us along on your wonderful travels. This is truly a beautiful city.. Shakespeare and you resemble a lot..😊

Very nice Gabriel!! Beautiful London! A lot to see! ❤😊 stay safe and warm ❤
You can actually go inside tower bridge. Just walk down to the bottom path next to thames and you should see and an entrance somewhere
The London Pass is a great means of seeing London attractions on the cheap. Get a number of attractions in everyday and you save a packet!
5:35 just wow, i wanted to listen more to that music
What a beautiful voice that first street musician has.
like your beautiful face blonde woman🍤💦

Welcome back to the uk
What is the name of that covered market starting from around 16:45 in the video?
I'm really not sure, I just happened upon it. It was very close to the Tower Bridge so should be pretty easy to find.
Borough Market, great street food there!
It's a beautiful city.
Killer tour of London, love the architecture😍😍😍 guy playing guitar 🎸 was awesomely talented. Thanks for sharing
Thank you, I would like to travel around the world.
Get yourself to Camden. A must for anyone visiting London.
I missed it this time, but people keep recommending it. Next time for sure.
Original London bridge was dismantled and took to the US. A rich american bought it thinking that it was Tower Bridge.
Another great video Gabriel, Sony performed good!
Thank you for your tour, London is an interesting city and you can be sure of the beer.
insted to visit UK, you visited London.

Hey if you are still in London check out the Lost Riverside brewery. It's next to the hospital across the tower bridge.
Have you tried pie and mash yet? If you go to Greenwich, there’s one called Goddards
I guess not. I tried bangers and mash.

The London telephone booths are actually urinals now, so tourists should take care . . .
The Linthicums eww thanks for the info
Yeah seriously.
I think you will find they always have been, only difference is they used to have the telephone handset next to your face that had probably been splashed !! Now you are more likely to find a defibrillator in one than a phone.
They have started to re-fit some of the remaining ones with defibrillators...
Last year it was half that number and falling. Try getting your 'news' from a non-conspiracy site. The big problem now is knife crime but your more likely to be hit by a car than get stabbed.
I love how Gabe pronounces places the way they are actually spelt. "South-wark". "Suthurk". Southwark or South-Wharf was where all the naughty entertainments happened. From bear baiting to prostitution and gambling.

@Gabriel Traveler -- do you get extended stay visas for Europe, or do you leave the Schengen zone before your 90 days are up? If you get a visa, I'd love to know which one and how.
I just stay for up to 90 days. I've never gotten a visa. But the UK isn't part of the Schengen zone so it doesn't count.

And I'm from Willits, California where protopipes were made.
St Paul’s cathedral was not completed until the seventeen hundreds.
It's been built and rebuilt several times, so it's hard to give a specific date for when it was built.

Where i'm from In Yorkshire you have York which i'm guessing u visited and Lake District which is just amazing and further up near Carlisle, then future down South you have all of Cornwall thats a dream, then u have Scilly Isles which are all off the Cornwall coast, loads of Islands a bit mythical how u can take a boat to all these little islands, some of the islands are posh, its all pretty expensive and blaazay, these are far better than main cities such as London and Edinburgh. =)
