Ive been to Iraq, Syria, and Turkey. Iraq has the least amount of scammers and hustlers. Hardly any. Alot of locals will offer you free stuff when they know youre a guest in the country.
Left Iraq when i was 18, im 32 now and this vid broght so much joy to my day. Seen how cool my country looks now is just amazing. Enjoy my friend, my ppl are kind, lovely and generous. Ps. That taxi driver is hilarious, he was saying everything is good with life. I guess chilling with you guys made him happy lol. I have a very large family in Baghdad, if you need any help, please reach out and i'll make sure they show you around.
Iraqi people seem so friendly to foreigners who visit their country. If the whole world was really like this, and there was no hate, scams, crimes, or drugs, We would live a better life. I have had many Patients from Iraq who live here in the USA, and they all try so hard to show their appreciating for our care to them. They bought us so much fruits and the children would just hug us. They asked me how do they say this in English, how do they say that. They taught me Arabic. It was really nice. I play so much with the Iraqi patients we get in the hospital in Pediatric ❤️🤍💙.
am so proud to be iraqi and as you see the Iraqi people so kind so pullet with the tourist And thank you luke for visiting my country and showing the world that iraq safe and how kind and generous the Iraqi people
It's not cool. They showed the nice parts of Baghdad. I have been working in Baghdad and Iraq for 8 years, while its better than it was 4 years ago, these kids are dumb
I do a lot of solo travelling, often my only talk is with my taxi driver, if we can understand each other. They are the best people to know, they give advise and have great local knowledge. When you travel, you never need a tourist office, just a good taxi driver. All the people you met were super friendly and helpful, Baghdad in a flourish fresh city with amazing kind people. بغداد الجميلة
I'm from croatia a few thousand years ago croatian people moved from Iraq to croatia and I'm so happy to see that the Iraqi people are progressin and living in peace
Iraq is seriously the coolest country! Iraqis are seriously the coolest, sweetest most loving most in the world! They love and accept everyone and will give you and let you have whatever you want seriously. Even when Saddam Hussein was president they were the coolest most loving and sweetest people and the country was cool and beyond wonderful
Man who sold you the shoes didn’t lie to you and say they were real, he told you they were fake. Iraqi people are literally the most honest people, and that’s why you don’t see too many wealthy and successful Iraqi billionaires. In order to be wealthy, you have to be ruthless and a good manipulator, and the Iraqi people are not that.

I recently discovered this channel and, like many here, I find your approach to travel very entertaining. It's a genuine experience. I appreciate that you learned a few words and give each place an honest chance despite the media portrayal. Thanks for sharing your experiences!
I recommend taking the time to explore some of the key and intriguing sites in Baghdad. They offer a unique experience especially for those captivated by culture and history. The first stop on your tour should be the renowned Iraqi National Museum - you're bound to appreciate it. Following that, the Baghdadi Museum.
I'm so happy to see this, my girlfriend is Iraqi and she was never there, but her mom grew up there. I always tell her that I wanna learn arab and go with her there, but she is too scared and doesn't think it's safe, well, now I got some proof here!
Man god bless u!! I left iraq since i was 13 now im 29. Havent seen home since the day our family left. Thank you very much for these videos, it brings joy yet saddnes to me. I just hope the country will be okay and i can see it again
Really enjoyed this video Luke! Your were out and about and not just filming all Food! For a while there I thought you were becoming a traveling food critic! You are getting back to the Luke that I came to know and love! ❤🖒🖒❤ PS: say hello to Mac!
come again, we missed you... There are many beautiful places that you did not go to visit and some of the traditional Iraqi dishes you did not taste 🥺💔
like really did you tell me how this half a hour is passed i have no idea good stuff good video love you bro love this whole stuff thank you to delivering it to me and all of those people who watch it
Hi My name Hussein Salah Abd, Student of the University of Kufa, Department of English, what do you think of our visit and you will be welcomed in Najaf, Iraq. Waiting for your reply dear.
I’m so happy your able to show my country and city go to mansour it’s an area in Baghdad with a bunch of shops and food and it’s the night life or the city
So glad to see you-tubers exploring my origin country iraq, btw we are based in Australia, and we are a big fan of your channel Btw in Iraq when a bird craps on you it means good luck! Enjoy your time in Baghdad Mate !
Within everything that happens to Iraq and specially to Baghdad it’s still breathing and never gonna die it will come back even better than before we just need time and patience
Luke..you visited to India but u didn't come to kolkata.. You must come and you'll experience a lot of joy in the City Of Joy! Love from Kolkata, India🇮🇳❤️
im pretty surprised that you guys r surpised of the developement you guys seen in baghdad.....cuz the city has been one of the oldest civilisation and at one time was the richest amoung the arab countries....i guess you didnt do any research before visiting....but its has been struggling a lil bit since invasion of US and UK....
Baghdad the Greatest City in the world.. Iraq the greatest Country in the world... Iraqi people are the best and most genuine and generous people in the world. Enjoy guys.
Unfortunately, you did not go to many beautiful provinces, including Karbala, Kufa and Najaf, and you did not taste traditional food and give us your opinion about it, such as the dolma .. Mandi and sweet from the sky and others 🥺💔🇮🇶
@@johinthpathirs7139 yesssss UAE was literally built by rich men exploiting south East Asian workers😤 I’ve been to Iraq four times and can say that it’s very underrated and misunderstood!
baghdad was much better and civilized in 80s .. 70s ..60s .50s but unfortunately there wasnt youtubers .. everything has changed in baghdad even the people of it.
Look at these people, lively happy, smartphone savvy, women driving cars, good buildings, typical chaotic markets, great cafes, and yet in new we hear just war and rockets and missiles. Terrible! Baghdad, Damascus, all these cities have been cradle of civilization. I hope the Middle Eastern regime understand that and work towards prosperity of e region rather than indulge in useless violence that only empowers west.
Among all the people you dealt with, the shoe seller took advantage of you. In fact, it is cheaper than that because it is a non-original copy, so if it is not original in high quality, it is sold for 20 thousand, and if it is poor, it is sold for 10 thousand.
Well 1st of all I don't think it was a big advantage to bringing the price from 40000 to 30000 and You are saying it's a 20000 so it's not really that big advantage and 2nd thing the seller did not lie he did not tell him it is original he just told him it's a High end replica
He said at 11:04 "Here with my brothers from America, and Australian, we're having a good/wonderful time."
how are you
