ABOUT US:
We’re traveling full time, living on our own terms and showing you the up-close-and-personal details of us figuring it out along the way. Sometimes it’s about navigating big, life-altering decisions. Sometimes it’s about navigating the seemingly lawless free-for-all that is driving in Hanoi. It’s moments of triumph and moments of panic. The good, the bad, the ugly - and most importantly, the real and real funny.
We’re not here to tell you “how it’s done.” Just how we’ve done it. And that whatever it is that’s calling you - the way you’ll do it is much more attainable than it may seem. We believe the world’s a more interesting place when people reject convention in favor of what they actually care about. This is us putting that idea to the test - one budget spreadsheet, RV renovation and mountain-peak drone video at a time.
Thanks for watching! NEXT UP: NORTHERN VIETNAM MOTORBIKE: ruclips.net/video/k39wJEHnyec/видео.html
Just to say hi.... we just watched
We follow you.... just looking back :)
Y'all skip this. U don't see much of cave. Just a bleach blond woman yakking incessantly.
I enjoyed this video as I served in Vietnam in 1966, 1967 and again in 1968 as a Marine Grunt. The heat was unbelievable as you experience. Just try to imagine dealing with that along with the snakes, spiders, centipedes, wild animals, booby traps and someone trying to kill you. But the best beer I ever had was after my first patrol and getting shot at. For some odd reason their was gold beer waiting for us at our base camp. I can still taste how good it was 56 years ago. Thanks you for filming your adventure. Semper Fi
Thank you for your service! I was born in Vietnam and have been in the U.S. since '75. Thank God I have never experienced the jungle like that since I lived in the city. Thank you to Tim & Fin for the exciting video and sharing their adventures
I was born and raised in Vietnam. I left when I was 13 and never had a chance to go back for over 30 years now. Didn't get to do any of these, but next time when I'm back I will. Thanks for sharing.
You should make a plan first, if you want to make a tour in this cave, have to registed for years before you go.
This is so special to hear, thank you for sharing!
30 years but never had a chance? Shame on you!
@@CentralHighland oh that’s just for soong dong
San Doong was my 50th birthday gift for myself. And I'm so grateful. It was intensely beautiful.
Did you get to see the jungle inside the cave? I heard they have their own cave monkeys… from what I’ve seen on RUclips it looks like a scene from Avatar
@@greg6162 I'm guessing that's the more expensive caving, the one Tim wanted to do. I think it costs about $3,000+ and has a waiting list as only so many people can do it a year.
This is the best "Phong Nha" pronunciation by a non Vietnamese, hands down
I agree. It is spot on.
One of my favorite comments ever! Thank you so much! 😊😊 cảm ơn 🙏
I’m in my mid 50’s and contemplating doing the 7 day Son Dong cave tour with my daughter and husband. I was going to really train hard to get my finest up for a year before we would book to go. After watching this, I know that I couldn’t manage these four days, let alone 7 days. Watching your video was kind of the next best thing though. Keep enjoying your travels and sharing with the world. Thank you
I did it at 61, NO problem at all, with NO training.
I never stopped smiling! What I loved was that Fin’s responses were so real like I would imagine mine would be. You all went so that I don’t have to-I’m way past the age! Thanks so much for taking me there. Superb!
How does this not have a million views!?!?!?!?!?!
Thanks Rosie! 😊😊😊
This has got to be one of the coolest adventures ever.
Great video. Did a 3 day motorcycle trip through N Vietnam in 2016. Took a spill on a rainy road. Cut up my hand. Had to get a tetanus shot, stitches ...didn’t understand a word in some tiny village, but would go back in a second. The difficulty makes the experience worthwhile!
Ouch ouch ouch!!!
wow, thank you both for letting me revisit Tu Lan caves. I made the 3 days tour in December 2017 during the slightly more muddy season. Didn't have to fight the heat dough 🙏. How did you manage all the shooting for the blog besides following the guide. Fantastic videos. Stuck in the isolation for the pandemic now, I gonna watch all your other vlogs, since you were at some same places I had seen. Thanks again for all the work you did and sharing it.
Guys you are the best on RUclips, I love how natural are you, I watched this video with my husband with no moment of feeling board, and we laughed many times and enjoyed all the trek you’ve done, great adventure, be safe and thank you so much for all that joy and fun you brought to us by your trips ❤️🙏
Thank you 🥰🥰
Great vlog...Memories when looking back will be highlight of your life. I’ve been all over Vietnam except cave, Sapa, phu quoc. May need take next trip back to Vietnam again.
This is the longest travel video I can watch on RUclips without getting bored 💫
That was amazing to watch. You both are so brave and courageous. Thank you for sharing this video with those of us that do not have these types of opportunities to travel.
This is a compilation video of all of the Rugged Underground episodes on a 4 day Vietnam Cave Trek. Hope you enjoy!
Reminding me to not go to the tropics....
Absolutely Awesome Thank you
What tour was this specifically? On the website there’s 3 options for the 4 day tour, was curious as to which one this way.
John Nguyen this is the Tu Lan 4 Day 💪
TIM and FIN yeah I ended up watching the video again and realized you guys answered my question during the video ahah my bad. You guys have definitely inspired me to hopefully one day do a cave trip of my own! I’m canadian born viet, but I love Vietnam. Can’t wait to go back.
you both are so brave! amazing videos! thank you both for bringing this dangerous adventure to us that are not able to see these beautiful caves and scenery.. thank you Tim and Fin!!
Guys, that's the best trek ever, I love the videography, the music, the scenery. Wow, I'm glad Fin did it with Tim through the caves with giant spiders and venomous snakes couple feet away. What a lucky and happy couple! 👏 👍 🙌
Fins secret is that she loves caves. Almost as much as she loves spiders.
Thank you SOOOOO much for making this video!!! Ever since this new ecosystem was discovered, I’ve always wanted to see what the journey looked like and everything that was inside. The price and extreme physical challenge were not things I could endure. I’ve watched a few of your videos so was very happy when I came across this. My family is Vietnamese so thank you for pronouncing “Phong Nha” correctly! Your accent was spot-on, Fin!
Btw, which month did you guys go?
Tin Fin you both are awesome. I came across your RUclips channel by being locked down for COVID 19. I love it. You both are so sweet and beautiful. Not only that braver too. I’m enjoy your video very much. Thank you 🙏 for sharing your journey with us. God bless you both
Thank you for your efforts in filming your memorable adventures - Cheers
FIN, i dont think you get enough credit for how hard you push yourself out of your comfort zone especially when you're afraid. you'll never know how inspired i am by you
I love watching your video, I love your sense of happiness and humor, no matter what the obstacles, hardship in front you two keep smiling and enjoy life at the moment. I love Fin’s smile. This is the second video of your that I watched. Love you both ❤️
Did I just watch all of these episodes as they came out? Yes, yes I did. Am I watching this again anyway? Yes, yes I am.
Hah thanks Erin - all the love!
The best trips I ever had were discounted with a scruff group lol.
What an amazing adventure you had, I loved watching this, felt I was there with you. This is one trip you will never forget. It was just stunning, would love to do something like this.
This was so much fun to watch! You guys are amazing!
WELCOME TO VIETNAM BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY
First of all, I love you guys and your videos! Second, both of you are effin CHAMPS for doing this!! As soon as I saw a spider of that magnitude, I would have started questioning my sanity for doing something like this and probably would have turned around lol. Then doing it in that high heat and humidity, no way. You guys rock for completing this adventure. I can't wait to keep watching the rest of your videos. Love from Michigan! =)
I guess the question is, will Allison go with you if you do decide to go on a 2 day trek? Allison was a trooper and I think she did great on the 4 day trek.
Such an amazing video of a super interesting trip! Thanks for filming and editing all of this
I loved every second.. Had the biggest smile every second.. Well done looked so beautiful.
You guys are just brilliantly adorable, relatable, fun, and a joy to view your incredibly adventurous and inspiring lives! Thank you
I think 3k$ is suitable for Son Doong, it can limit the tourism and save the cave itself, not great for us visitors.
Wow... I love your adventures in Vietnam
Yeah, that's extreme.
If a spider bites you, you can hear Uncle Ben say, 'With great power comes great responsibility.'
If a viper bites you, you can hear Uncle Roger say, 'HAIYAA!' 🤣
I watched the vlogs as they first came in. Yes I watched this again. Also will probably watch in again too. 🙃 You two are freaking amazing!! Thank you for sharing. I felt your fear Fin, the bats would have sent my husband screaming out of there never to return!! 🤣🤣 How are you going to be top this one? I can't wait to see.... Much love from the Sunshine Coast of BC Canada ~ Jennifer ❤😘🇨🇦
Thanks Jennifer, you’re lucky to live in such a beautiful place!
Tim, Fin, ya'll made watching this so much fun. Ya'll must be such great friends. Thank you.
One of the best videos I have seen. This was assumed.
so much work went into editing this thx 4 that
Thank you for watching! ☺️
I loved it! Great having your thoughts while going along.
I'd like to see you guys do Son Doong next time you're in VN. Expensive, but well worth it. No bugs or creepy crawlies in the cave so Fin would like it.
This is on my list! Now that I've we seen this.. Its gotten me more excited
very helpful. thanks. your video was helpful to anticipate what I need to bring.
Beyond imagination. I just finished watching an action movie. You are so great !
Wow, I've never left the states & not too many things I feel strongly about doing out of them but this is an adventure of a lifetime! Awesome video
NEVER left your home country? Damn bro broaden those horizons! It's a small world these days 🌏
Real Jurasic Park, what an adventure!
I liked how you guys Narrated what was going on in segments like you did. I haven’t seen one like it and found it uniquely done.
Love this style...thanks for all your brave adventures
This cave expedition is insane 😳!!! I'm claustrophobic...wouldn't have made it , but incredible footage!!! 💗the retrospective commentary with the video!!
Wow it was beautiful cave and great adventure to explore excellent experience.
You guy are really a cutest couple. I enjoyed watching your awesome journey and your mixed fun expressions. Thanks for sharing adventurous details. Love you both 💗💝
I prep for the day in the mornings, and then work afternoons, into the evenings. This vid killed my morning productivity. I couldn't stop watching the cave adventures. I like both your short form and long form formats. Honestly, you are both so adorable, I enjoy pretty much any living of life camera interactions that you do. Have you thought of focusing more on food next? I think getting a feel for the local dishes could be a very interesting video. Lastly, with regards to sleeping on a trek like that, a 20$ pop up mosquito tent would probably save you a lot of pain if you do anything like that again. Thanks for the vid. Your far away friend, The Lord of Death. Love and bubbles.
If you're interested in food vids, Max McFarlin has a great channel on it. He's vlogging in the Saigon area now and has that southern twang going since he's from Arkansas. Check him out.
This is absolutely amazing! I would love to experience something like this but I’m with Fin (arachnophobia) makes it a hard no lol! Thank you for sharing this crazy adventure!
What an awesome adventure!!! Fun to watch. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks. Big fan from Việt Nam
Amazing trip in the central Vietnam. Thank you!
It was pretty intense and crazy, I actually felt your anxiety and I don't think I need to go on a cave trip now, but definitely an above ground adventure, some moments lagged a little but overall I enjoyed it.
I just discovered you guys...wow. Killer video. I love your adventures and your vibe.
Loved this video. Thank you for taking us along with you on the trip❤
That's a great adventure remind me the movie Indiana Jones, I m a Vietnamese I would love to go there someday, hope y'all enjoy that trip, Thanks for your vlog. Enjoy so much.
what a mad thing to do !
Nice vlog, and what a trooper doing this when you are not feeling 100 % 🍻
First cave expedition I’ve been on, and I never got wet. The things people do. Very very interesting. They are special people. Born to show us the way.❤❤❤
this is a great video about cave hiking. i really admire how you guys travel the world as a living. I am from tRinidad and Tobago. there is a cave in Trinidad that has the second largest colony of bats in the world. and every day around six oclock in the evening there starts a torrent of bats flying out of the cave for hours.
Thanks for sharing the amazing amazing experience guys!!!
That's one h...uva hike. An unforgettable experience. The jungle and cave are so beautiful. Pretty full on days though. Awesome video.
Thank you thank you thank you!!!! My daughter and I have a 10 year goal to do this!!! And after watching ... were still in!!
Great video watch from beginning to end
I've got 1 word AMAZING
The intro is hilarious really
32:22 looked like that treat you were munching on was mighty tasty, mm mmm i ❤ them😋 treats!
Loved this format where you watch along and we get background. Just found your videos and am really enjoying watching them.
Love quảng bình,việt nam
Epic adventure you guys! Fin gets the good sport award for being amazing! Love both you guys but the only way Tim could equal Fin's spirit to hang with her mate is to watch a 12 hr. marathon of Sex in the City...twice.
thanks for making the video; i enjoyed watching it; i am a bit old for this kind of adventure; thus watching this video is the only way i can see the cave so thanks for uploading; also, it is very well put together. keep on exploring guys....we only live once.
I Hope I can go there some day, it’s the most beautiful cave over the world
Thank you for doing this because I would not. Loved seeing it all.
This was so beautiful and real. Thank you.
Dude! That was the most awesome, Gnarly trek every! I loved watching this video! I want to do this trek the next time in Vietnam. What was the name of trek? It looked fantastic, agonizing, and on the edge of your fears! Thanks for sharing this adventure with us.
This is the Tu Lan 4 day with Oxalis. Definitely the most challenging! Oxalis offers other tours in the same cave system too
loved it im going
guys try the macchu picchu trek for 4 days
From Vietnam with love❤❤❤❤
Now you guys have these memories for life. Also, think that you guys are still "young" doing this in your 50s will not be as fun.
I’m gonna have to try this with my wife next time we go back 😍😍😍😍😍
You guys. WOW!! Another amazing video. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures. We LOVE your channel and are so glad we've found you guys!! Some of the places you squeezed through did NOT look easy. AMAZING!
Amazing Place 😱 From Bangladesh 🇧🇩
SWEEEEETTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been in some cave traveling fulltime in our RV, but your cave look way cooler!!! When we went to Carlsbad, I learned about this cave.....SUPPPEEEERRRR COOOOLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!
Carlsbad is pretty epic too!
You two are awesome. I am Vietnamese I wish I can see this place, too. LOL.... I hope I will do it one day. Thanks for sharing this beautiful video. Love from HOCHIMINH city.

Welcome to Vietnam
Hello, this is tvN's Sondoong Cave Team.
We are producing a program to explore 'Son Doong Cave' in Phong Nha Province, Vietnam.
The cast includes Park Hang-seo, Ahn Jung-hwan, Kim Nam-il, Choo Seong-hoon, and Kim Dong-jun, former Vietnamese soccer coaches.
We contacted you because we wanted to use about 10 seconds of the video.
If you allow the use, I will leave the source and use it.
We look forward to contacting you.
You guy's are so much fun! Thought I was gonna see a trip to that Son Doung(?) Mammoth cave but I stayed w you to the end! Awesome cinematography!"You compliment one another perfectly!😘
Nope loved it. Thanks for sharing. Both you made me smile lots. Inspirational couple you both are
I once slept in a tent by the seaside and it was so boiling that I had to take off all my clothes. That was a camping night and I had learned that I'd better stay in a hotel next time.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
even thou so dry so good so many rivers there
We really enjoyed your vid and your humour! Thank you for your great effort to film your trek! Cheers to your courage too!
