Avoid This Airport In India 🇮🇳
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 сен 2024
- I will show you my honest first impressions of India. From Sri Lanka I booked a flight to Chennai in India's South (Tamil Nadu area). I have never struggled so much when arriving to any other countries so far. First I did not get any sim-card for my phone, so I could not search a hotel. Furthermore the ATMs also did not work the way I expected. On the other hand I had so much fun with local Indian people that I randomly met on the streets or in the metro. And of course I had to try delicious Indian street food. I still did not stop eating, even though after 5 hours I still had my suitcase with me and I still couldn't get a sim-card. Watch this video until the end if you've never been to India. and you'll know how India is like and how you can prepare yourself in a better way than I did.
And why should you avoid Chennai Airport? In my opinion, that's a bad choice to enter India. You will need a Sim-Card and there's NO SIMCARD AT THE AIRPORT!!! That's a big joke for any tourists who want to spend their holidays in India. Why is it possible that Delhi and Mumbai Airport have Simcard Stands that you see immediately after leaving the airplane? With plenty of foreigners buying a Simcard?! I don't know why they don't sell SimCards in Chennai, but if it doesn't matter to you to land in Chennai, Mumbai or Delhi, then don't choose Chennai. Also in the city the 2 big Simcard Companies don't sell you any Simcards, because you need a permanent residency and some Indian documents which foreigners just don't have. So I had to 'bribe' some locals to arrange an Airtel Simcard for me. Great, right? No, I don't like to break the rules, but if you have less choices, you actively try to find a solution.

📍LOCATION
- Chennai (India 🇮🇳)
What I would have changed if I knew it before:
Bringing a foreign currency to exchange against Indian Rupees in the exchange office or probably withdrawing less money at the ATM. Booking a hotel in advance via Booking or Agoda is actually not an option for me. It might still be fully booked when I arrive, the Wifi is bad or not existent or the traffic on the street is loud. So I would have most likely gone to a nearby place to eat and using my hotspot to make sure in which area I wanted to find a hotel. Then taking the metro or local taxi and going to that area and on the way trying to buy a local sim-card from a small seller who sits under an umbrella beside the street (in case he doesn't ask for the same requirements like the bigger stores). But travelling also means learning. And without these issues I maybe wouldn't be aware of that thing like that can happen in other countries too. So now I can prepare myself better before / while I travel to other countries. And the bonus: I was able to film a long vlog, showing you my real first experiences of India. I had so much fun, even though I got a bit exhausted from walking, waiting and not to know what would happen next. Eventually I got a sim-card one day later and my hotel is pretty nice too.
Ohhhh 😮 I'm really sorry bro I don't know you choice to go India
Maybe If I know before you go to India I will advise you to choose Nepal Indonesia Philippines that's a beautiful country
and also avoid Bangladesh too much garbage 🗑️
I have one question ❓ please ☺️ what you think India better our Srilanka I know India cheeper in Srilanka everything expensive 🫰 because you know the situation in Srilanka
Anyway Mr. Carlos enjoy your Jenny 😊 I'm always with you 😘 I have many likes for you don't forget 🫰🫰🫰
Perhaps it would be better for you to do some research on the internet before flying to India, especially to the southern part. I was also surprised and wondered why there were no SIM cards sold at Indian airports, whereas in some vlogs I watched, there were many available. It turns out you flew directly to the southern part of India, where the conditions are slightly different from the more modern and advanced northern part, where it's easier to get facilities. But that's how traveling goes, sometimes it doesn't meet expectations. The most important thing is always to carry cash, no matter what the conditions are. hope you enjoy your trip in India.
You're totally right! At least having some cash, whatever currency it is, is always a good idea. And as you said, traveling means to learn too @@bug_on_internet
bang @@WildCARLOSappeared yeah, we learn new thing everyday 🤗
@@BlueSky-ip8ej y not India man
Guy didn't do his homework before visiting India & then complains. Most foreigners acquaint themselves with what to expect & how to get around
A simple google search can help you. Mobile stores near me. That's it job done. Have basic IQ before complaining others.
@@Shyndixie or at least take instructions from locals, he didn't wanna do that either, frustrating to watch
That man feeding the cats & dogs is such a welcome change 😊
Guy explains to him where the ATM is, behind that building, he turns around and says "ok let's go to Burgur King" 🤷♀?!
Taxi driver tells him he's take him to the SIM card shop, as there is no such shop at the Airport, he says "ok, challenge accepted" and keeps walking in the same direction

Welcome to TAMILNADU ❤...
in India: other bank ATM machine , there is a per transaction limit of 10,000INR. Same bank ATM machine, per transaction/day limit is 20,000INR.
Enjoy brother in India.
Thanks for visiting srilanka.
Thanks for your support bro 🙂
I have travelled to a lot of countries, as I land there are no network or you dont have cash when you land. The point is to FOCUS on what you need......you dont need a zim card or cash. You need to find the safest and fastest way to go to your hotel..after a rest and food, everything else can be figured out.
Get a wifi hotspot and book an uber, and get to the hotel.
Being foolish cost time, money and stress.
When Tamil people listen to his english ZIM card they are like "adangommala"
I am so proud of you as mentions about sri lanka
Sri Lanka is still in my heart 🫶
❤ sri lanka is really good country ❤
Sri Lanka is the best country
I just found your videos, and you remind me a lot of myself with your generosity. It sucks not feeling like you don’t want to help because it feels like you’re feeding into the problem but it’s hard not to when you know how much better you might have it over someone else. You’re a great dude from what I can see. It’s a great thing to just be kind and spread love.
I was so happy when he got a room to relax 1:24:03
“Brother from another mother” said by Loki and it’s my favorite phrase 😆💕
one of my favourite phrases too 😅
I have been to France and I have not had any free use of rest rooms, neither had any wi_fi unless I pay extra for it even I paid hefty price to stay at the hotel. Please try to be more realistic and continue with real blogger. No hard feelings. May God bless you with all happiness and wealthyness with lots of love and blessings to you.
54:45 thats a good man
It's relaxed no taxi drivers asking 👍 1 minute later WHERE ARE YOU GOING!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha at least you have the opportunity to grab a taxi right away ☺️
1:25 Hey bro cool down Why are you Jalus 😂
I have traveled to many parts of India, but unfortunately, I had the worst experience with rickshaws in Chennai. They always overcharge. For example, Uber showed a fare of 350, but a local rickshaw charged me 600. I could have taken the Uber, but the wait time was too long. I have some of the nicest friends in Chennai, and everything else is great except for the rickshaw drivers.
Always try to ask friendly locals for real price and not tourist price
You gotta ask the REAL price. Sadly, many parts in India this kind of scam happens. The economy here is weak as heck! If you ask a local, they'll tell you which one is a scam and which isn't. Most chennai people are chill af.
The same happened for me in Bengaluru and Kolkata Airports. But I denied those rides and found a driver who was ready for a similar amount through Ola. They sense a different language person some may want to take a better chance to make more money. It happens in every Indian city.
Thank you what you done for my country.love from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰❤️. come back soon 🎂🇱🇰
really? look at the poverty and the stray animals? It is profoundly disgusting!!!!
Internet! Internet! Internet! Every airport have fu*king wifi 😅
Insecure and doesn't solve my problems
I am going to India end of April. I already have Indian money from previous trip, but more importantly I have bought a e-sim ready for when I arrive in to India
Wish you a lot of fun in India! ☺️ By the way, when I arrived on Mumbai airport, there were some mobile provider stands and foreigners got their sim-cards. So it depends on the location if you're lucky or if you're unlucky like me 🙏🏼
WHAT MAKES ME FRUSTRATED IS THIS GUY WANTS TO FIND A CARD AND AN ATM HE GETS DISTRACTED AND GOES ON AND DO OTHER THINGS AND NOT STAY ON TASK!!!!!😡
Yep. He is lost and that's kinda frustrating. He believes JIO is best as compared to Airtel and Indians are totally weird at times to ask for his local ID proof to a German tourist. Language barrier is huge.
You sound as if you got some serious issues going on. So what if he easily gets distracted 🤔
He gives a true scenario of a single traveller.
Why is it a problem.
It's nice to know. How it is .
It wouldn't be practical for those going with family ofcourse.
But he's a nice guy
I am frustrated that you are an Indian and I need to call myself an Indian because I was born here unfortunately. Life is not fair. I have a very simple cure for your frustration, hopefully you know that.
Exactly
I faced the same problem in India. It's very difficult to purchase a Sim Card for a foreigner.. Lots of conditions are there.. Even the staff is not friendly for the foreigners 😢
I think they were friendly. And I think there are some easier solutions for foreigners to get a sim.card
Exactly. Most of them can't speak English
@@WildCARLOSappeared No way for a foreigner to get a SIM card in India. I have been living in India for the past three months and only managed to purchase it with the help of a local who registered it under his name. I guess their regulations are very stringent as the population is very large. Overall, they are a friendly lot but many of them speak little or no English.
It is not because they are unfriendly. The reason they appear unfriendly is because they speak little or no English and are unable to respond in a clear manner.
Will u guys speak English in Germany ??? I felt the same when I entered Germany with none of them speak English…
akhirnya bang Carlos di INDIA 🇮🇳 🤗 wkwkwkwk drama sim card, yang sabar ya bang Carlos , selamat datang di INDIA

I’m so pleased you’ve moved on to India. I didn’t get the feeling you connected as well in Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka is amazing and I'm sad when I left. But there's literally no street food. Now it's time to explore street food heaven 😀🇮🇳
Streetfood is unhealthy many Indians had stomach disease becoz streetfood
Challenge accepted hehe @@Good-po6pm
@@WildCARLOSappeared anyway again try to come to 🇱🇰
Seems like taxi drivers are very annoying 🫨
Watching this video and seeing this guy, navigate a very modern airport is painful to watch
That innocent smile from the old man who was feeding the food to street dogs and cats is priceless. He is very inspiring!!!!
You are so kind. So glad i came across your channel. Have a great stay in India. Have a wonderful trip ❤️
Glad that you like the video! Have a wonderful evening ☺
Grapes must and should wash before eating
So scary, people harassing as you arrive. Sickening
It shows you were totally unprepared and unplanned trip...
Hey hun why didn’t your book a hotel before landing in India instead of finding a hotel after you landed at least the hassle would’ve been wayyy lesser than this and for the Sims card you could have loved your whatever the card you were using on data roaming base extended for 5 days maximum until you get the Sim card you’re looking for..? Anyways stay safe and happy travel! ✨
Try Adayar ananda bhavan for masala dosa, pongal, lunch thali etc. The ATMs dont say that the maximum amount is Rs. 10000, instead it just says enter smaller amount. Strange that the banks wont fix it, as it is a headache for customers. Getting a SIM should be as easy as other counties, India needs to improve. It is good that you stayed positive when things were difficult, which actually helped you find that hotel.
Ask Ur Boss Modi...
ngl, A2B kinda mid
India folks🇳🇪
Greetings from indonesa🇲🇨
Thank you, Dina! Have you eaten dinner already? ☺️
I have eaten already
What did you eat? I'm so hungry 🥲
@@WildCARLOSappeared Indomie with sayur and bakso
Oh enak sekali
You go to other country without any cash and the card you provided was decline. You keep calling Zim card. :) Good Luck!
🍿
@@WildCARLOSappeared You would have better experience in Ahmedabad(Gujrat) India.
Happy and safe journey..
Why dint you have international roaming updated for one day at least
I'm really sorry and apologies about your bad experience. Some people's still don't know how to behave their guests.
Don't apologize. He is known for making negative headlines and comment farming. Just comes across as a whiny person when things don't go his way
@four321zero 😂
THE GUY IN THE AIRPORT SEEMS FRIENDLY BUT TOO FRIENDLY.
The Bobble head move they all do is curious to me.
It's difficult foreigners to get sim card in India. BTW it's sim card bro not zim card.. People will not understand if you tell it zim card
I pronounce it how Germans do 😁 But now after all I succeeded getting a local sim-card 💪🏽
Come to Kerala (few suggestions: try food in Calicut, learn surfing in Varkala, trekking in Munnar, and have a relaxing nap in a houseboat in Alleppey. )
Noted! Thank you. I will come to Kerala soon
100%. I love Kerala. I lived there for 3years.
Common sense - use your roaming for a day until you sort yourself out. It would have saved you a whole load of pain and time.
Welcome to India bro🎉🎉❤
Thanks my brother 💪🏽 I'm looking forward to have a great time here for the next 3 months ☺️
I was surprised to see how hard it was to find a ATM and how hard it was to get a SIM card in India. As you explained here I guess you should have done things differently but as a traveler you are learning things every day about countries. I watched all your Sri Lanka videos and really enjoyed them. Come back to Sri Lanka again.
It was really a nightmare here 😅 But it was a learning. I will always come back to Sri Lanka 🫶
Welcome to India tamilnadu brother 🙏🙏🙏
Why go without booking a hotel ?
Also, find a bank outlet.
Great.come back agein visit to sri 🇱🇰
I will always come back to Sri Lanka 🫶
🌹🌹
Just by reading the title, I knew you're talking about Chennai. 😂
Go to Bengaluru, it's amazing there. 🇮🇳
Chennai does not make itself a tourist friendly destination... Its perfect for people who can adjust to anything and everything India and knows their way around here
The way you handle the camera is giving me motion sickness 😅
Hahaha sorry bro. Many people mentioned this already. Gotta learn a bit about how to properly use a cam ☺️
Ayyo
Mr. Carlos
It stopped raining in Sri Lanka after you left 😃😃😃
It's very Sunny 🌞 these days in Sri Lanka and no more gray clouds
Had you stayed a little bit longer you could have explored some more areas in our country especially the mountain
areas 🌄 🏞
Ohhh, then I was the reason for all the rain in your country I suppose 🤣 Next time I'll try to bring you more good weather when I come to Sri Lanka again hehe
@@WildCARLOSappeared 😃😃😃😃
You have to go outside and ask local person. They'll help you easily. Or else have to use uber or taxi for go to simcard store care. Inside airport you'll get nothing. Outside locals will help for sure
Thanks! I found some locals now who helped me getting a sim-card 💪🏽
Even though your leg got hurt, you managed to survive it, sir. Salute to you. So much energy and power. If I were there I have extra simcard that I'm not using. I already gave you mine. What kind of person they all even didn't guide you or help to keep your bag for sometime to help But now I understand how you feel your first impression in India but I'm sure When you'll leave India, you will leave with a different experience.
Correction: Not 6th biggest, 4th biggest city in India
Wow nice vlog 👍
From Sri Lanka
Thank you! Have you visited India already?
OMG, The samosa vendor just threw the garbage so naturally.
Your 1st destination should be kerala or mumbai.you can easily understand or buy a sim card .❤ welcome to india
Sim card Sir not zim card
I've been waiting for this 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘😁 welcome to the INDIA 🇮🇳 YOU WILL BE AT 1.4 BILLION SUBS IN NO TIME 😅
First 200k 😀
very interesting video ... very nice editing soon you will reach 1M
when you visit somewhere you do little research like i did visiting Malaysia where to buy sim card where to get money exchange best rate.
The best thing you did is you given fruits and bought him some triangles instead of money. Because many people uses these kids to earn . I does similar to things when i finds kids begging for money but sometimes they beg for their ill siblings and parents for real but its very rare . Most of them orphan and they beged for some gangsters .
What is this zim card😂😂
Next time, regardless of the country, get an eSim for that country before you go. You'll have Internet the moment you land...
10000 max limit . Never do with conversion 👍🤘
Oh that's really the max on every ATM? Yeah, conversion sucks ☺️
Welcome to Kerala next🌴
That's my plan 🙃
You have my total sympathy, that is sooo stressful! Mexico had me like that stat safe!
46:22 Bro was like 'He's gonna put it in YT, you're gonna become popular.'
Don't say Zim say Sim. India can seem chaotic. Good luck..
To be prepared for country u never been to before, you better start making friends with others RUclipsr that's been there multiple times already. Maybe message them and talk to them over the phone, they might help you out
That would make absolutely sense! Sharing experiences and avoid some hassle 💪🏽
Bro that metro guy not use good words for you he laughs and says bad words sorry for that idiot bro and most welcome in india🇮🇳🙏
one thing, you have to wash the grapes before eating, farmers use pesticides for grapes
He is indian bro. He will called u even without u giving yr num.. he will come to your house without invitation and have to accept because they are the nicest people on earth
I am kandy sri lanka ❤❤❤
I miss Sri Lanka already a bit 😳
53:31 I love how he care the street dogs and cats 😇🩵
Faced a lot of difficulties 😢
The video is barely 30 seconds online and you already know what happened there?
Travel tip: Book your room before leaving so you have a hotel to go to from the airport/ Then if no SIM card is available at the airport take a pre-paid taxi to your hotel and use the hotel's internet to find a Airtel SIM shop on google map and look at the reviews for one with good service. Note not all Airtel shops do tourist SIMs. Also you might need a reference so ask the Hotel for a name and phone number. That's what I had to do and a guy from the hotel went with me. Yes it's a pain getting a SIM in India, E=Sim is great if your phone supports it.
Enjoying travel anywhere❤❤❤❤
Thank you! Hope you'll like my upcoming videos too ☺️

Bro I have a Question. Sri Lanka Airport better than Indian Airport?
Haha. Not sure. But at least I could immediately find an ATM and simcard at sri lanka airport 😀
it's more comfortable to live in Indonesia bro
Oh, which cities in India have you visited already?
1:05:30 please guys carlos just want a buy some sim card first, after that we can do chitchat 😅
ATM HERE IN INDIA will only dispense max 10,000 at once so if you pls next time while visiting try taking 10,000 for each transaction .
Is it really as intimidating as it looks? The language barrier is crazy
I have heard that germany is a very clean country.❤❤❤❤❤😊
Yes, except Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof area I guess 😝
die crackyss in Frankfurt 😝@@WildCARLOSappeared
you are asking ZIM card. It is sim card...You may pl .pronounce properly..
Well basically all the airports are maintained by the same government agency. We also don’t know why some airports are given better treatment than others.
Carlose.. im sorry abuoth your situation in india. Im from srilanka. India please you must lern treat bouth the forines.. you see he is worry obuth the situatin
💯
please speak English bro
Sry for such inconvenience in tn. However, as per my knowledge i would like to suggest that if u don't have Internet connection once u arrived pls ask some one to share hotspot to find out the jio store and good hotel to stay. Apart from these use uber taxi or uber tuk tuk using uber app for travelling purposes inside chennai
