- Опубликовано: 8 июн 2019
- We spend some time on The Strip, do a live stream, drink an $11 beer, and then we depart. We visit Lake Mead, walk the Railroad Trail, visit Hoover Dam (sort of) and go for a hike at the Valley of Fire State Park

I like that he does not try to be someone more - he is just himself and the music rocks
Wow, haven't been to the dam since the mid 90's. Cant believe how low the water level has become.
0:07 "she always interrupts me". Lol
Right? LOL🤣
The Las Vegas strip truly is a "feast for the senses."
I'm addicted to your videos. I'm an armchair traveler. I live in AZ and the West is so amazing with it's beautiful landscapes! You capture them well!
I will join you in my armchair!
Hi Robert... You really, really need to take the Hoover Dam tour next time. It is awesome!
It really gives you an appreciation of what those brave men went through building such a fantastic structure.
Valley of Fire is one of the most scenic spots in the Southwest. I never tire of visiting it. The White Domes hike with its slot canyon is out of this world.
You make the best travel videos! 🌴🚐🌴
I just love your videos and just bought the national parks pass,I'm heading out west for my next trek in a few weeks and find your videos very helpful.I wiil be hitting up Zion,the valley of fire this time the west Rim of The Grand Canyon then Yosemeti.
You are the best Traveling R! Your camera captured the colors of VOF amazingly! I went to Valley of Fire State Park December 2017 with my two cousins and it was the highlight of our trip. The images are in mind for eternity.
Gorgeous scenery . Many people think of Las Vegas only as the strip . But a few miles outside of the city you will find beautiful landscapes with spectacular scenery .
Hoover Dam footage was spectacular! 👍
Low level of Lake Mead is rather shocking 😱 ...especially when compared to your 2013 footage.
Very unique part of the country.
Thank you for taking us to places some of us wouldn’t be able to get to. ❤
That giant light atop Luxor attracts millions upon millions of bugs at night. From below you can watch dozens and dozens of birds diving through, feeding on them. Eerie sight.
Good evening, Robert. I love this video a lot about Arizona and Nevada! The good thing that you show us these nice places since I cannot travel at this point now but it is like you are taking me their with you! Thank you!
Thank you! So glad you liked it
Really enjoying your road trip. Lake Mead is so low it's pretty shocking
Love it love it love it!! Wish I was there. Thank u Robert!! 🤗
If you appreciate mountains this much then you’ll appreciate Yosemite for sure. The peaks that the glaciers carved the peaceful flowering meadow in Yosemite valley and of course the majestic waterfalls. The dinning at the lodge is wonderful. I still salivate over the buffet and the blueberry blintzes for dessert mmmh delicious. Much to see there also. The pine scented air and the whispering aspens. Not to mention the wildlife. Well Yosemite has always been my favorite.
I’ve never had an interest in visiting Hoover Dam until watching your very in depth look of this must see American marvel. Thank you for sharing and sorry to hear you dinged the Colorado. Saludos de Miami ☀️🌴
Thanks for including the footage from Valley of Fire! It's a gem of a state park and over looked by folks heading to Vegas!
Nice job on this video Robert. Your narration is excellent!
People watching this video must be warned that this was filmed in February. Not current. Cause if you decided to get in car and go right now it is going to be HOT! Smart Robert!!
Yes, I always put the date at the beginning and the end of the video for that very reason. There signs everywhere warning not to hike in the summer.
I looked it up, the Luxor's roof light has 40 billion candlepower, if you wanted to know !
I love the look of the Valley of Fire. I will have to visit that place one day.
Gooooood morning Robert! Thank you for the new video. Stay safe in your travels. We will keep you and your family in our prayers. Fly pelican, fly! 👍🌴😎
Love it love it love it!! Wish I was there. Thank u Robert!! 🤗
Great music at the valley of the fire!
Love the shots of the Hoover Dam just spectacular and the different hues out west is mind boggling. Pull up a chair to just sit and go ah and ooh, such beauty out there.
. Nice chilling with you Robert always loved the scenery you capture
Estos videos es como sí 👌 uno estuviera ahí contigo. Gracias Roberto por los videos.
Nice trip to Valley of Fire. Every time we visited Vegas we tried to find something different to do away from the Strip. I always enjoyed Valley of Fire. We also went to Red Rock Canyon often.
That was absolutely brilliant. Well done ...Thank you for taking us with you
1:53 I walked exactly where you were walking and stayed in the palazzo tower. Great video as always. Your videos have helped me learn so much about the United States and you have showed me and so many viewers amazing landscapes and places in the U.S. Thank You!
Thank you for leaving in that beautiful scenery on your drive.
Love spending Sunday mornings traveling with you!
I have been watching your videos for some time now and I love them all. Keep on doing what you are doing and stay safe. X
I was at Hoover dam 2 weeks ago. I go each year and still in awe of it. Great vid.
I must say your music is catchy and it grows on people. Keep composing.
That was a beautiful travel video. Thank you Robert.
Thanks for this great trip. It's wonderful to take the walks and se the territory! great colors! Your fun take on it. Thanks again!
another great video Robert -- thanks for capturing some beautiful scenery for us
I love you and your micro mini RV
Thank you for the peaceful scenes my friend 🌻
Robert, your travel vlogs ROCK!!! I don't even drive, and your RV travels make me want to learn!
Thank you so much. You are extremely talented and make your videos so nice to view.
Good video to prepare my trip to LV and the close area... Thanks for sharing your video that will help me out..
I always enjoys your videos. Thank you for taing us along.
Beautiful area, Valley of Fire and Fire canyon..!
You do some excellent Video Narrations !!! Awesome quality as well !! Really enjoy your videos
Again Thank You Robert for taking me to Las Vegas...I like you doing the driving...
Thank you Robert ! you are the best !
Just love your vids, your voice, the information you impart...especially appreciate how you keep your viewer engaged...no boring stuff. 🙌💚
Also really enjoy your music!
My favorite areas to visit.
Great video editing. You are a pro. Love your trips in the desert. That scrub brush you were in, is classic Mojave rattlesnake habitat. Stay safe buddy !
Thanks for another great video Robert. We actually stumbled on your videos on Amazon Prime and have been binge watching on RUclips since. Stay free (in your RV)
Very enjoyable travelling along with you. Very well done!
Such magnificent rock formations.
I love that your enjoying yourself.... Great Video ❤
I really enjoy your traveling videos. I can't drive anymore due to a vision problem. But now I can sit on the couch with a cold beer and see our beautiful Country. Safe travels, and thank you.
Nice video by the way. Great views and very informative.
Valley of Fire is a hidden gem & a must see!! Planned to camp one night, but ended up staying two nights. We'll definitely return.
Very alarming to see how low the water level is in Lake Mead. Great video, again, Robert!
This is awesome !
Excellent Video...From Engineering marvel to Amazing Nature. U nailed it.
WOW, that water is very low.I remember a few years ago Nevada would run out. That could be true now. Love your videos.
I so look forward to Sunday's these days, when you publish another great video!
A real life time traveler! 😝👍
Robert you do a good job on your videos I've been watching you since you were down there in Florida and all by for about a year and a half or so because I'm getting ready to go RV in myself full time I do enjoy your videos this is the first time I've commented but I was planning on coming to Vegas and Reno in those places and I like it when you guys go ahead and show people around
Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is near Las Vegas, it’s as impressive as well
Another wonderful video!! ♡♡♡
Great videos of the Lake Mead area and Hoover Dam! Kathy and I look forward to Sunday when you post a new video.
Very good my friend! After listening to you in the last few video, it wouldn't surprise me if you relocated! lol It's not warm enough for you though I think. It is amazing how that world wide floor about 4000 years ago formed all these canyons you are visiting.Thanks again, take care.
Hi Robert, great Sunday afternoon drive. Las Vegas and your 11.00 beer at the beer park, looked good though. 😃Lake Mead, Hoover Dam all were very interesting & fun to see. Valley of fire hike was so beautiful too. Thank you again for a fun filled trip. See ya on the adventure. Your friend, Larry, Santa Rosa, CA
Holly crap. Welcome back to Vegas man. I keep watching your vids and cant wait to one day own my own RV.
Great video. Fabulous landscape. The rock formation in Valley of Fire are incredible.It's more beautiful than Cappadocia Turkey. Congrats and keep going...>>>
hello mon ami robert un voyage magnifique 👍😉
I’m picking up my first RV next week, a Nucamp teardrop, so I’m rewatching many of your videos this week. This is one of my favorites.
Cool. Congratulations. Those are nice teardrops.
Traveling Robert thanks Robert, i’m going to get one of your sticker for the back of it.
Such a gorgeous place
The tunnels you walked through were the same ones used to film the motorcycle/helicopter chase scenes in the 1977 movie 'The Gauntlet', starring Clint Eastwood.
Awesome video,thanks
Excellent
Hallo, Robert! Greetings from Indonesia!
Glad I found ur channel.. feed my home missing. Thank you!
Sir am maaz.i just want to say u are a Great man.keep it up thx.
Love your videos!
Superb..
100k subscribers!!!!! Wooooo! Way to go TR!!
Good afternoon again Mr Robert we visit with you USA
U the best my friend.. Another awesome video.
There's a huge arcade in the basement of the Excalibur. Excalibur and Circus Circus are 2 of the more "family friendly" hotels. I took 2 young teen girls to Vegas several times and they loved it. They loved that arcade in the Excalibur. Another hotel I recommend if you have kids is The Orleans. The Orleans has a daycare center and they will babysit them for a fee. They have video games, movies, and tubes to crawl through, etc. for their amusement. My daughter loved it, she thought she would hate it but she asked to go back every night. Just remember to bring their shot records. You will need them. Then on the same floor as the daycare center is an arcade and a movie theater.
From Kenya....love your videos Robert
Never fails. as soon as I get anything new,something happens to it. I can't have anything nice.
YOU ROCK ROBERT!!!
Robert, you should secure all " rights " to your song....... " Because I'm free in my RV " because I think it is pretty awesome. Really enjoy your travels !!!!
Very nice video
Thanks for sharing 😉
Robert, your music is really evolving nicely in these videos. I have to say the beauty of this latest video is one of my all time favorite.
Thank you!
@@TravelingRobert yup... I want to play your music in my own car... just driving to the store will seem like a fun adventure.
Loved this video. It brought back so many memories of my trip there in November. I went around Vegas on the west to Red Rocks Canyon, which is beautiful and avoided driving through Las Vegas. Stayed at Boukder Beach campground. It is so pretty and really is only $10 a night with the park pass. It still has water & elec., a dump station and great bathrooms. I hiked the railroad trail and took the tour of the inside of Hoover Dam. Very educational. Also took the paddle boat from the marina to the bottom of the dam. I love the campground so much, I stayed 5 days, went to boondock outside Valley of Fire 6 days at Poverty Flats while driving in to hike VoF, then went back to Boulder Beach again for another 5 days. One of my favorite areas. The best way to see VoF and hike the trails is to leave the trailer parked at your campground and just take the car. I learned about a great boondocking spot out on a messa surrounded by mountains that Paul of The Motorhome Experiment revealed. There were other nice campers there so I felt my trailer was safe. Just pull up Poverty Flats contour Google map.
I'm going back to see how it is in the summer. I'm going check out Poverty Flats, although with the extreme heat I guess boondocking would not be recommended
Just love your video.
Best videos.. We want more 👍🏾😁
Check out Echo Bay, next time at Lake Meade, cool r.v. parks and close to Valley of Fire.
Love your Videos.....
I could watch another 40 minutes of the Valley of Fire.
Nice video...Never been there, looks fun!
