Another tip for tourists is don't call it a day when the sun sets. A thing that many people don't know is the night life in major cities is amazing and a lot of people go out and have fun at night because of the hot weather in SA. All the shops, restaurants, and malls open until the midnight and as a local saudi I prefer going at night because of the weather and because There's just one prayer time unlike the daylight.
Many people who say it with a z aren't really incorrect, it the correct pronunciation they grew up. So maybe it isn't correct standard english, but in real life people only use perfect standard english very rarely in rather niche situations. If you went to england every town and county would have its own correct way to say muslim.
@grian realy? Did you even been in a desert befor? So in the winter the wind become so quick and the normal in the desert nothing can stop or hamper the wind Im a saudi and i my answer is the winter is so cold and more coldest in the colder night
You don't see men wearing shorts because they need to cover legs when they pray and because people are used to the hot weather. So shorts are not related to summer in our minds. But still it has been always legal to wear shorts.
No thats not fully correct . Now there are new laws u can not enter restaurant , train station or even get to the airport with short . It is just forbidden
Dutch Van Der Linde those can work but it’s just not practical because sometimes those shorts can get pulled up when you knell down and you have to pray 5 times a day
i love how u respected their culture! I hope everyone does the same. Even if u don't agree with another country's beliefs if you visit the country, you should respect their traditions!
*THIS* I'm glad people like you and youtube video like this still exist in this time! Respect others if you wanna be respected. Bless you! Peace be with you!
I'm an expat in Saudi, before I came here I wasn't sure what it would be like, I was concerned that it would be strict and humourless. I have lived in Riyadh and currently I am in Jubail but have also visited Hail and Hateefah, In the 6 months since I arrived, I have met some incredible people, my Arabic is improving very slowly, and the people are very warm, very friendly (a high percentage are under 30 years of age), they have a very well developed sense of humour, and most are very well educated. I think for a long time Saudi has been very shy and reserved on the world stage, and is now emerging and the world will be amazed at the richness of the culture, the importance of family, being respectful and how amazing the people are. The kingdom is so different from the way it is reported in a lot of the western media. I feel incredibly fortunate to have visited and enjoyed the hospitality. Even during the Covid pandemic, I have felt safe and I would recommend you visit if you get the chance. So ignore the negative press, it is a rich country in every sense of the word.
Welcome Mike among your brothers. Christians are the closest religions to Islam. Britain and America are the closest and most welcome allies. I advise you to buy the Holy Quran, its teachings are the same as those of Jesus .. Just as Saudi Arabia is wronged by the Western media, so is Islam. Mary and Jesus love us Story of Jesus Birth (Prophet Isa) in Quran by reciter Raad Muhammad Alkurdi th-cam.com/video/d4GWFsON7yo/w-d-xo.html
Abdullah The teachings of the Koran are nothing like the teachings of Jesus. You have clearly never read the Gospel. Koran: "Kill the unbelievers wherever you find them". Jesus: "Love your enemies". Koran: Strike at their necks. Jesus: He who lives by the sword will perish by the sword. Mommad killed people. Jesus healed people. They are opposite. Night and day.
@@gb7168 the thing is we believe that Qor'an , Torah , Bible (the original delivered by Jesus or Isa on my language) all the holy message from the same one and only God incase you don't know, its not just inspired
Cultural sensitivity and following local laws are definitely important! This will certainly be useful and even educational for many viewers. Keep up the great content 🙌💯🗺🇸🇦
@@azizbannay9941 Mohammed who said non muslims are the lowest of the low, to not take them as friends and to straight up conquer them until they submit to Islam. Maybe your prophet said that?
@@KevinGeneFeldman Did not realise Islam was a person lol. I can find someones culture or religion interesting and respect it without finding it appealing. This snarky comment about "bbbut islam bad doe" on a post talking about people just being polite and respectful is incredibly uncalled for. You can find a million places to debate Islam and muslims online, this isnt the place and it kind of shows that youre just itching to shit on Islam even if the conversation was not about it. Have some common courtesy, eh?
@@KevinGeneFeldman wow wow then give me a prove for that shit ok this is first Second apperanly you are very very smart to the edge that you know everything in this life Three If you claimed about respecting respect yourself first and go you ignorant Why you are saying something that mohammed peace be upon him didnt said or did it I am a muslim i know my religion well ok You kid a small advice 1 learn how to write and how to speak 2 read If you wnna know what is Islam If you don't like dont speak or talk about it like you know everything you ignorant 3 respect yourself you kid
I lived in Saudi for 7 years, I’m going home this year, but despite being an expat, I will always consider Saudi a “home” of mine the people are so hospitable and being here for half my life I’ve seen quite a bit of it. I’m going to miss it.
I born in Saudi Arabia , my religion is Muslim , my language is Bangla I am in Saudi Arab for 10 Years by the way I never go to any county accept for Bangladesh Now I am just 11 Years old . Cool right
So far the most realistic and honest “Things not to do in Saudi”... It would’ve been perfect if you kinda clarified one thing, waring shorts... We obviously have and wear short but it literally like literally depends on where you’re going... If you were in a crowded/ public place like a mall, airport, I wouldn’t recommend wearing them (+ banks and governmental places)... but if you are going to a restaurant, barbershop, gym, supermarket, hookah lounge, something that isn’t kinda open i’d say go for it... When I was back home I used to wear shorts and have a pair of jeans in the back of my car haha.
i used to live there. i wore shorts everywhere. maybe not do it in riyadh, but jeddah or al-dammam are VERY liberal. theres even women walking around without burqas and stuff
I don’t know why always people says that Riyadh isn’t “ Liberal“, actually it is the most liberal city in SA, almost all large cities in Saudi are “liberal”, Niqab (not birqa) actually depends on person’s believe, it has nothing to do with extremeness or liberality, there’s a lot of “ways” to practice islam like in Christianity there’s Orthodox, Protestant and Catholic, most of saudis (especially who live in middle regions) believe in Niqab, so it doesn’t has to represent the extremeness of a person, I hope I clarified some points
By “Liberal” here I meant “the acceptance of differences” not “believe in differences”, so in Riyadh (and most large cities) for example the people there are facing a lot of differences in there routine life so they became more acceptable to them, but in other small cities, like my city Al-Qassim (it is beautiful city by the way you should visit us if you can ☺️♥️ ) we don’t face a lot of differences so if we see some woman not wearing an Abaya (long black dress) we will feel strange and confused because we don’t see that normally, like if you see a woman wearing Abaya in your country, it all just about adjusting 🤷🏻♂️, Saudis in general are very educated people and we know about the differences in the other countries, we almost in every summer vacation we travel outside in Europe or Asia so we faced a lot of cultural differences, Saudi people themselves are very open minded, but the government was closed, even for this who not traveled they have a good access to the Internet and social media so they watched and faced a lot of cultural differences and stuff
@Marco Chiacchiari I think it is the same way you feel about the north 🤷♂️ (interesting btw because the most liberal cities in SA is located in the west), at least for me and my family and my friends, it's a bit hard to acclimate with these changes which happens in Saudi Arabia right now, even Riyadh wasn't the same before these changes, I don't say that we were living in a bad situation before these changes but I really miss the way that SA was, it was more simpler and every thing was familiar to me, nothing big really change in my city just few things (like seeing a lot of women drive cars which I really loved it), but in Riyadh, it became a whole different city, and when I travel there for visiting family or finishing some business I really feel like I'm in another country and feel not belonging and not home 🙄
You are honestly sooo respectful and this video is a breath of fresh air for a Muslim like myself who has to read hundreds of Islamophobic comments every day, amazing stuff man, had a smile on my face from start to finish.
Saudi Arabia is like my country, Serbia, and a lot of countries - they are really nice but because of American propaganda, people have wrong pictures of our countries...
@@ziggle5000 ask these questions to your country wherever you live first before throwing your white supremacy shit over other people.. wake up it’s not 1800s any more..
I've been working in Saudi for more than 2 years. I agree with your views about people here. More respectful and kind people I've met. Very welcoming to foreigners.
I live in Saudi Arabia and I don’t even know this man but seeing how happy he is as he talks about this just warmed my heart. I wish you the best wherever you go, and I’m glad you loved my country❤️
I was born in Saudi Arabia and I lived there for ten years and my family lived there for 25 years (some of them even 50) i am indian and i am a muslim , once when i was in kindergarten i was in a toy store with my mom and i was too fascinated by the toys and wasn't leaving the store my mom said c'mon lets go but i did not listen to her .So what she said after was that she is gonna leave me if i am not gonna come she thought that i wold come but i did not so i panicked and just left the store crying and trying to find my mom but in reality she was just outside the store i did not see her she kept calling my name but did not here that so then i got lost then a police officer saw in the mall crying all alone and he said where my mom was and i did not know and i was hungry as heck so he took me to a store and left me there for probably about 6 mins with an employee , the employee saw that i was crying and he gave me a bottle of fruit juce and chips for FREE but i refused to take it so he was like ok then don't take it then the police officer came with idk maybe about 4 more other police officers they took me to the office and shut down all the gates to the mall so that no one kidnaps me . then they secured the way a few more officers came surrounded me and took me took me back to my mom ..... like there were about TEN officers like WHAT TEN to this day i think that that was a bit over the top . THE way they took me to my mom was like one was behind me one was in front of me the was there and i felt like a special person at that moment like wut was that for a 5 year old
I love how you promote respect for their culture! I watched this video because I'm now having calls with people from Saudi Arabia because of work and want to better understand their culture, but after watching it I really want to visit the country 😍
Mecca is just a place to do umrah and hajj and it's the only place in the world for 1.7 billion Muslims to do the obligations. So it's too crowded most of the time. You can go if you're a muslim seeking to perform the rituals but if you're not, avoid it. You'll do justice to the people who need space.
lmao, it's okay to wair shorts, most of us don't cuz we can't pray with short so if we are in the city and the athan came out, we need to pray but we can't with short so it's just for pray in time and doesn't delay it for late.
@@BudgetCarnivore yeah this is islam rules but not the country rules .. which means not every muslim follows every islamic rules + none muslims r not demanded to cover their thighs in saudi .. yet yes we have a dress code for certain places u have to follow like governmental institutions + restaurants n malls etc so u have to check it out before u come to saudi
I am from Ireland but lived in Saudi when I was a kid for a year or 2. I subsequently travelled back most years for the 50 degree summers due to my dad being an expat there for nearly 20 years now. Happy to see an educational video about Saudi that answers a lot of uneducated peoples question's on common misconceptions. I will definitely share this video to counteract the western judgmental reports on Saudi.
Thanks for being so sensitive! Saudia Arabia is actually extremely important not just for Saudis but maybe every Muslim in the world! And you being sensitive about the holiness of Mosques and religious sentiments of everyone involved and not trying to make fun of it is extremely appreciated! Stay blessed! 😍❤️
i know i'm a year too late but i just wanted to say that i'm so so happy you enjoyed your time in saudi arabia. these videos of foreigners coming here having fun and being respectful makes my day.
I started watching your videos since yesterday i covered half of your channel. I just want you to know man you changed my way of thinking from now when ever i feel depressed i will watch your videos i am really happy after watching your videos and i hope you stay safe for now and began traveling as soon as this pandemic gets away and i also want to travel with you man i love you thank you for such good content .
Man, it's very good to see video from someone like you who is young and travelling throughout the world. Because today you burst many myths I had about Saudi Arabia. I believed that Saudi people don't actually like non-muslims and they cut hands for small offences if non-muslim does any crime, but turns out that they are some of the most friendly people in the world and things aren't always what big western media houses show us. I'd definately love to visit the nation of Saudi Arabia once the situation of covid19 pandemic settles down and everything is back to normal. To all Saudi Arabian people watching this video and reading my comments, "Asslam valeikum, inshallah we'll pass through these bad times too"... Stay loved, stay connected and keep travelling my friend Jacob...
I'm glad there are bright people like you. I live in Saudia Arabia as a collage student. And I see how the media is spreading lies about this unique, gorgeous, amazing, and phenomenal country.
@@KO-gu4hc really everyone should see for themselves before judging any country. And as far as my concerns go, these harsh laws keep criminals in check and crime ratio to almost zero. Unlike western countries who treat criminals with so much love and humanity that they keep on committing crimes.
Het Shah About cutting hand you cut there hands if they stealed honestly im a muslim but idk much about this i think if you stealed again they cut your hands +respect from saudiarabia this really just made my day
4:20 No dude , it’s totally ok to wear short except for formal and governmental places such as court , because in saudi it’s too hot in the summer and people don’t care about proper dressing some times 😂
the law in islam is to chopped the hand of the thief and yeah all muslim countries did that before but not know Saudi and many Muslims countries has stopped do that now
Thats true but not for every one , There’s only a few conditions that if it’s happen you got that’s punishment for. Like from every 1000 or even 10000 case there’s 1 who got this punishment
I spent 5 weeks in Saudi last year working on a touring magic show. First time it had been to Saudi and the people seemed to love it. And I loved the people. As you said, all very friendly. I felt like a celebrity sometimes in the streets as people seemed to lose their minds seeing my white ass walking by lmao. But yeah, it was a great experience, and best of all I felt safe the whole time I was there, safe being in public and safe being around authorities.
When i was visiting there i saw a lot of white Saudi people . Years ago, normally there’s no tourists coming around and maybe that’s reason why they reacted like that.
I’ve heard really contrasting things about Saudi! Still really want to see it 😊 Who else is READY TO TRAVEL NOW??! Great video as always 👌🏼 Take Care, from 🇪🇪

Hello, Jacob!☘️ That was incredibly interesting for me to find out more things about Saudi Arabia, thank you for another wonderful video! The advice not to wear shorts even in very hot weather may seem strange to a tourist, but I think the advice is very important: tourists wouldn't like to show disrespect to the locals, so, they have to know what can make them look disrespectful. What is common in one country can look impolite in another, it is very important to respect the traditions of the locals. Jacob, I think you are too friendly to have problems with the police😄 That's wonderful👍

Dude is so respectful that's all, I wear them all the time as long as I'm not in a mall or a governmental service building. Trust me, now that Saudi is open for tourism and is really developing a public transportation infrastructure RAPIDLY, it is going to be one of the most visited countries WorldWide. Safety and hospitality here is unbelievable.
I send my love and peace to all of my Arabs brothers and sisters, especially Saudis from Iran❤ love is wise and hatred is foolish. If we want to live together and not die together, we need to respect our differences. All Europeans have come together and have made a powerful Union without saying "oh, you're a catholic, you're a protestant, you're a French or you're a German", but we muslims are still fighting over our minor differences. There's nothing more humane and Islamic than to create friendship and love among people. I'm Persian and honestly speaking I love all Arabs. May peace be with you❤❤🙏
We love and respect the Iranian people. What we do not understand is the Iranian government. Our problems are with it, not with the people! Arming gangs and spending on them with weapons to kill us! Great Iranian greetings and peace be upon you
Living here in Saudi Arabia for more than 17 years, I can proudly say, Saudi Arabia is the safest country on planet, no eve teasing, no robbery or theft, 100% safety on empty roads.
It's easy to say that saudi is safe and there's no eve teasing or assaults when u are a guy. Ask a women if it's safe and she will say something else (I am a woman who lived in Saudi Arabia for 11 years I would know)
Everyone is welcome to come to saudi arabia, your visit will make us happy❤️, we want to let the whole world know how beautiful saudi arabia is, not by media but by there own eyes. As a saudi Arabian and i have traveled to many countries worldwide, you will NEVER find people who are welcoming more than saudi people.. they treat guests with so much care and such generosity and it is offered free of charge.. this is one of the traditions that every saudi was raised and grew up on .. is to be very generous with guests either locals or foreigners. I hope the image about saudi arabia is changed. It’s very sad how the media portray us saudis.

I've lived and worked in Saudi for several years now, and I can confirm that things are wildly different now from when I first arrived. I think this is a fair list of things to be aware of when traveling here. The "be afraid of the police" thing probably started back when there were religious police patrolling everywhere here. Having negative interactions with them used to be fairly common. I even know two teachers who were stopped and fingerprinted and taken to the police station for not being fully covered when leaving their university. Even the regular police thought it was ridiculous, apparently. Still, even that incident only happened in a very conservative city up north - where I lived in the eastern province, I doubt it would have happened. However, it's been a few years since the religious police lost any power they had, and I've never had a single negative encounter with any regular police forces here. They've always been helpful and friendly. I definitely don't think people should be afraid to travel here, but if they do then they should try to be as respectful of local customs as possible. (That's true when you travel anywhere.)
@@aapkadost28 Yeah you can. Everybody can it doesn't matter where you from or what your religion. The important thing is to respect the law and the people.
This is so fake, in Saudi Arabia and other countries women can’t walk around any place without being entirely covered, and even in more relaxing Muslim countries, even though they’re theoretically free to choose, they’re extremely discouraged by population to be that way.... hijab is a prision to most women

4:20 not really, the reason we don’t wear shorts that much is because when your praying your not allowed to show your knees and we have to pray at least 5 times a day
@Michael Thomsen it was a pagan place of worship before, until abraham and ishmael destroyed the statues and then build ka'bah in its place, now it is only for the worship of one God, nothing pagan here, and no pigeons shitting. Ive been there and I'm sure I know better than you.

You don't see men wearing shorts because they need to cover legs when they pray and because people are used to the hot weather. So shorts are not related to summer in our minds.
But still it has been always legal to wear shorts.
Ali bullshit
No thats not fully correct . Now there are new laws u can not enter restaurant , train station or even get to the airport with short . It is just forbidden
There are shorts that are long enough to cover the knees even when you kneel what about them?
as as it is completely true and I am from Saudi Arabia
Dutch Van Der Linde those can work but it’s just not practical because sometimes those shorts can get pulled up when you knell down and you have to pray 5 times a day

Yeah most westerners are disrespectful unlike this guy
I'm an expat in Saudi, before I came here I wasn't sure what it would be like, I was concerned that it would be strict and humourless. I have lived in Riyadh and currently I am in Jubail but have also visited Hail and Hateefah,
In the 6 months since I arrived, I have met some incredible people, my Arabic is improving very slowly, and the people are very warm, very friendly (a high percentage are under 30 years of age), they have a very well developed sense of humour, and most are very well educated.
I think for a long time Saudi has been very shy and reserved on the world stage, and is now emerging and the world will be amazed at the richness of the culture, the importance of family, being respectful and how amazing the people are.
The kingdom is so different from the way it is reported in a lot of the western media. I feel incredibly fortunate to have visited and enjoyed the hospitality. Even during the Covid pandemic, I have felt safe and I would recommend you visit if you get the chance. So ignore the negative press, it is a rich country in every sense of the word.
Welcome Mike among your brothers. Christians are the closest religions to Islam. Britain and America are the closest and most welcome allies.
I advise you to buy the Holy Quran, its teachings are the same as those of Jesus .. Just as Saudi Arabia is wronged by the Western media, so is Islam.

So far the most realistic and honest “Things not to do in Saudi”... It would’ve been perfect if you kinda clarified one thing, waring shorts... We obviously have and wear short but it literally like literally depends on where you’re going... If you were in a crowded/ public place like a mall, airport, I wouldn’t recommend wearing them (+ banks and governmental places)... but if you are going to a restaurant, barbershop, gym, supermarket, hookah lounge, something that isn’t kinda open i’d say go for it... When I was back home I used to wear shorts and have a pair of jeans in the back of my car haha.
@Nick Shannon I'm a white American and I agree with you.
i used to live there. i wore shorts everywhere. maybe not do it in riyadh, but jeddah or al-dammam are VERY liberal. theres even women walking around without burqas and stuff
I don’t know why always people says that Riyadh isn’t “ Liberal“, actually it is the most liberal city in SA, almost all large cities in Saudi are “liberal”, Niqab (not birqa) actually depends on person’s believe, it has nothing to do with extremeness or liberality, there’s a lot of “ways” to practice islam like in Christianity there’s Orthodox, Protestant and Catholic, most of saudis (especially who live in middle regions) believe in Niqab, so it doesn’t has to represent the extremeness of a person, I hope I clarified some points
By “Liberal” here I meant “the acceptance of differences” not “believe in differences”, so in Riyadh (and most large cities) for example the people there are facing a lot of differences in there routine life so they became more acceptable to them, but in other small cities, like my city Al-Qassim (it is beautiful city by the way you should visit us if you can ☺️♥️ ) we don’t face a lot of differences so if we see some woman not wearing an Abaya (long black dress) we will feel strange and confused because we don’t see that normally, like if you see a woman wearing Abaya in your country, it all just about adjusting 🤷🏻♂️, Saudis in general are very educated people and we know about the differences in the other countries, we almost in every summer vacation we travel outside in Europe or Asia so we faced a lot of cultural differences, Saudi people themselves are very open minded, but the government was closed, even for this who not traveled they have a good access to the Internet and social media so they watched and faced a lot of
cultural differences and stuff
@Marco Chiacchiari I think it is the same way you feel about the north 🤷♂️ (interesting btw because the most liberal cities in SA is located in the west), at least for me and my family and my friends, it's a bit hard to acclimate with these changes which happens in Saudi Arabia right now, even Riyadh wasn't the same before these changes, I don't say that we were living in a bad situation before these changes but I really miss the way that SA was, it was more simpler and every thing was familiar to me, nothing big really change in my city just few things (like seeing a lot of women drive cars which I really loved it), but in Riyadh, it became a whole different city, and when I travel there for visiting family or finishing some business I really feel like I'm in another country and feel not belonging and not home 🙄
Bro u really care about people feelings, you r reallly really great
I like the way you talk about my country. You respect our customs and culture . I appreciate it . 😃

I was born in Saudi Arabia and I lived there for ten years and my family lived there for 25 years (some of them even 50) i am indian and i am a muslim , once when i was in kindergarten i was in a toy store with my mom and i was too fascinated by the toys and wasn't leaving the store my mom said c'mon lets go but i did not listen to her .So what she said after was that she is gonna leave me if i am not gonna come she thought that i wold come but i did not so i panicked and just left the store crying and trying to find my mom but in reality she was just outside the store i did not see her she kept calling my name but did not here that so then i got lost then a police officer saw in the mall crying all alone and he said where my mom was and i did not know and i was hungry as heck so he took me to a store and left me there for probably about 6 mins with an employee , the employee saw that i was crying and he gave me a bottle of fruit juce and chips for FREE but i refused to take it so he was like ok then don't take it then the police officer came with idk maybe about 4 more other police officers they took me to the office and shut down all the gates to the mall so that no one kidnaps me . then they secured the way a few more officers came surrounded me and took me took me back to my mom ..... like there were about TEN officers like WHAT TEN to this day i think that that was a bit over the top . THE way they took me to my mom was like one was behind me one was in front of me the was there and i felt like a special person at that moment like wut was that for a 5 year old

You'd be surprised of how far social media influencers are willing to go just to get a "fire" story/ photo.

Just go there during Hajj or Umrah lol
Mecca is just a place to do umrah and hajj and it's the only place in the world for 1.7 billion Muslims to do the obligations. So it's too crowded most of the time. You can go if you're a muslim seeking to perform the rituals but if you're not, avoid it. You'll do justice to the people who need space.

lmao, it's okay to wair shorts, most of us don't cuz we can't pray with short so if we are in the city and the athan came out, we need to pray but we can't with short so it's just for pray in time and doesn't delay it for late.

Hello, Jacob!☘️ That was incredibly interesting for me to find out more things about Saudi Arabia, thank you for another wonderful video! The advice not to wear shorts even in very hot weather may seem strange to a tourist, but I think the advice is very important: tourists wouldn't like to show disrespect to the locals, so, they have to know what can make them look disrespectful. What is common in one country can look impolite in another, it is very important to respect the traditions of the locals.
Jacob, I think you are too friendly to have problems with the police😄 That's wonderful👍
They don't wear shorts because while reading namaz your feet need to be covered up , as a foreign you are free to wear whatever u want .

Welcome to Saudi Arabia .. Saudi Arabia is a big country .. The most important thing is to maintain the general taste in dress .. and the Saudi people do not like to watch women without an abaya.
Any question I will answer you There are no secrets in Islam or in Saudi Arabia.

@@عبدالله-ن6ه2ص nice mate assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabara katuhu
wearing shorts is allowed but us Muslims dont wear it so we can pray we r not allowed to pray with short shorts
Dude is so respectful that's all, I wear them all the time as long as I'm not in a mall or a governmental service building.
Trust me, now that Saudi is open for tourism and is really developing a public transportation infrastructure RAPIDLY, it is going to be one of the most visited countries WorldWide. Safety and hospitality here is unbelievable.
I send my love and peace to all of my Arabs brothers and sisters, especially Saudis from Iran❤ love is wise and hatred is foolish. If we want to live together and not die together, we need to respect our differences. All Europeans have come together and have made a powerful Union without saying "oh, you're a catholic, you're a protestant, you're a French or you're a German", but we muslims are still fighting over our minor differences. There's nothing more humane and Islamic than to create friendship and love among people. I'm Persian and honestly speaking I love all Arabs. May peace be with you❤❤🙏
We love and respect the Iranian people. What we do not understand is the Iranian government. Our problems are with it, not with the people! Arming gangs and spending on them with weapons to kill us! Great Iranian greetings and peace be upon you
🤍🤍👏🏼
Living here in Saudi Arabia for more than 17 years, I can proudly say, Saudi Arabia is the safest country on planet, no eve teasing, no robbery or theft, 100% safety on empty roads.
@@nuclearglue4286 hahahaha
It's easy to say that saudi is safe and there's no eve teasing or assaults when u are a guy. Ask a women if it's safe and she will say something else (I am a woman who lived in Saudi Arabia for 11 years I would know)
@@shay2493 Is it safe?
@@shay2493 as a male idk about females.
@@shay2493 بدون كذب ولا تحكمين على كل السعوديه من تجربتك
Everyone is welcome to come to saudi arabia, your visit will make us happy❤️, we want to let the whole world know how beautiful saudi arabia is, not by media but by there own eyes.
As a saudi Arabian and i have traveled to many countries worldwide, you will NEVER find people who are welcoming more than saudi people.. they treat guests with so much care and such generosity and it is offered free of charge.. this is one of the traditions that every saudi was raised and grew up on .. is to be very generous with guests either locals or foreigners.
I hope the image about saudi arabia is changed. It’s very sad how the media portray us saudis.
تحياتي للشعب السعودي من حي البوادي 😀
I do enjoy a culturally sensitive tour!

Almost everything you said was true, I liked the video. Mad respect.
Saudi Arabia is beautiful. And the people are so wholesome and genuine.
l’m from saudi arabia abha thank you ❤️
I've lived and worked in Saudi for several years now, and I can confirm that things are wildly different now from when I first arrived. I think this is a fair list of things to be aware of when traveling here. The "be afraid of the police" thing probably started back when there were religious police patrolling everywhere here. Having negative interactions with them used to be fairly common. I even know two teachers who were stopped and fingerprinted and taken to the police station for not being fully covered when leaving their university. Even the regular police thought it was ridiculous, apparently. Still, even that incident only happened in a very conservative city up north - where I lived in the eastern province, I doubt it would have happened. However, it's been a few years since the religious police lost any power they had, and I've never had a single negative encounter with any regular police forces here. They've always been helpful and friendly. I definitely don't think people should be afraid to travel here, but if they do then they should try to be as respectful of local customs as possible. (That's true when you travel anywhere.)
@@aapkadost28 Yeah you can. Everybody can it doesn't matter where you from or what your religion. The important thing is to respect the law and the people.
@@aapkadost28 but try to not kiss or do things like that in public.
It's good to know that someone understand that Hijab is actually a choice, not an enforcement.
This is so fake, in Saudi Arabia and other countries women can’t walk around any place without being entirely covered, and even in more relaxing Muslim countries, even though they’re theoretically free to choose, they’re extremely discouraged by population to be that way.... hijab is a prision to most women
This is both ..
@@m.l5485 no, you better shut up if you're not a muslim woman.
@@siapaaku2251 This is right I am a Muslim guys don't lie
not true! its not a choice! YOURE LIAR
This is very helpful bro! Must watch before traveling to Saudi Arabia.
I lived in saudi arabia for 14 years Shoets are just fine
imagine being a bus driver in these vast wide lands < 2000kilos between cities
yeah i always feel bad for them
jacob’s channel is EVERYTHING. informative, fun, well produced, it has jacob in it, amazing places... just perfect
سلام عليكم يا اخوتي بالله ✋🏻 thank you for visiting our country we would love you to visit Riyadh next
Dude, respect on number 2# you were raised right 😊
Great video Jacob. I hope I get the chance to visit this interesting country as well one day. Regards from Australia 👍🏼🇦🇺
i am Saudi . Haha anything from Hollywood and western news is a lie.
Take the information from the right places.
I will send you videos. It may be a cultural shock for you, but you will understand the difference. Every religion and culture has its own way of life. We love our style because we follow the word of God.
Why the hijab and abaya?

4:20 not really, the reason we don’t wear shorts that much is because when your praying your not allowed to show your knees and we have to pray at least 5 times a day
Mecca is sooo beautiful and i love it soo muchh ❤️
@ ummm, i don't think we needed you to say that. Are you a kid or something?
@süleyman cakir man why you gotta be so negative
Great people , would love too travel there from England 🏴, looks like A great country to visit 👍
New video idea:
Don't sneak into Mekka at 3 AM [almost caught] [not clickbait]
Be careful morgz might be taking notes 😂
Mecca*
Actually mecca is 24/7
How do i know i l Live in KSA
@Michael Thomsen it was a pagan place of worship before, until abraham and ishmael destroyed the statues and then build ka'bah in its place, now it is only for the worship of one God, nothing pagan here, and no pigeons shitting. Ive been there and I'm sure I know better than you.
Mecca*
You're such a respectful man, I like the way you talked about Saudi. We will be happy if you come back again and visit us ❤️❤️.
