- IRAN is one of the most mysterious and closed-off countries in the world.
And in this video, we want to show you the 10 most significant differences and culture shocks that we discovered while living in Iran during the protests.

HELLO THERE:
We are Joe and Liisu, relatively new to TH-cam but really excited to be a part of this community. We live small and sustainably in my home on wheels (a lovely van called Freyja) and from time to time out of our backpacks (we have not named the backpacks yet). On this channel, we ask you to join us on our travel adventures off the beaten track where we show you the beauty of untouched nature and wander into places most tourists don't dare to go.
As an Iranian, I appreciate you because you're telling the truth clearly, you bravely stand up against the huge propaganda system of the Islamic Republic, and it is a very tragic issue that Muslim Iranian believe in the propaganda system, they are a minority who have only access to the propaganda of TV and censored newspapers, it is because they don't have the knowledge to use new technology like the smartphones(computers) and bypassing internet censorship or simply it is because that they monthly salary is dependent on believing the words of Mullahs(Islamic clerics).
You know the sad story of Mahsa Amini but I want to tell the story for your audience, #MahsaAmini was a Kurdish girl, who came to the capital Tehran to visit her aunt, the morality police of the regime arrested her, and killed her in the custody, just because her headscarf was not tided enough.
After the murder of Mahsa Amini, many brave people came to the streets to protest not just against the morality police but against the right rule of religion against the idea of the Islamic Republic, they want a secular democracy and they are frustrated with the government of clerics, it is clear for me that the idea of the Islamic Republic is one of the worst ideas of the 20th century.
The brutal regime's answer was bullets and live ammunition, people's weapons were chanting, throwing rocks, and fists, against fully equipped militia and policies.
Ali Khamenei and his team should come to the court justice for hanging many protesters who were in jail.
Thank you for your work, 🙏🏽 you didn't cover the truth because of your safety but you announced it, I hope the demands of the people happen soon and you could come back to the big country of Iran.
Women, Life, Freedom ✊🏽
Brother! Thank you for writing this here. I appreciate it and would show my gratitude with pinning your comment! Thank you, for a free Iran! ❤️
@Nafas Jand Hi, you can ask me anything but, your questions are not about the topic, they are not related to my comment, who spoke about Trump or USA at all?
Actually, you are trying to use Fallacy(مغلطه) and Whataboutism in your comment, two types of dirty tactics which mullahs use to oppress others.
I know that you use fallacies but I can even answer your false questions.
I don't know what propaganda means to you but let's talk about the worst-case scenario of propaganda in the UK, imagine 1000 TV channels, radios, and newspapers, 24/7 speak well about the beauty of the Kingdom, but it does not matter when any individual could publish his opinion against the Kingdom legally, today there are many TV channels, bloggers, and TH-camrs in the UK who are challenging the whole monarchy system and they are free to express their own opinion, now what about Iran? There is not any legal system to establish a TV channel individually, the Islamic Republic pays money for internet censorship, even if you connect to comment under this video from Iran you are using a VPN to bypass the censorship systems, and according to the Mullah's laws you are a criminal!
Forget about publishing newspapers and speaking against the supreme leader, these are totally illegal in the Islamic Republic and you can see what would happen if anybody speaks against the system.
Now you can see the difference.
In addition, the Vikings came to Iran and this video is about their experiences and impressions they had during the travel, they came from a secular democratic country and the harsh reality of a theocracy government was a different experience for them, so they talked about the propaganda of the dictatorship at the right moment.
They could skip reality and cover the harsh truth and show only the beauty of Iran, like many other TH-camrs who come to Iran and only speak about the beauty of the people and nature and many other travellers who skip the whole country because of anti-west nature of the Islamic Republic.
He didn't say anything bad about people who were killed in wars, he speak just about the propaganda machine, the Mullahs use killed people's pictures and memories to say to society that we sacrifice many lives in this way so you should continue with us! Another example of a fallacy. the Islamic Republic's idea was horrible, many people didn't know what could be the result of the rule of Mullahs, and they sacrifice their lives for the idea including my own uncle.
If a person drives so many kilometres in the wrong way is it correct to continue the way to the end because he put so much effort in the wrong way or should he try to find the correct way?
The Viking's comment about Iranian people was positive and they did a great job in their business of smashing the propaganda system of the Islamic Republic in the face, their work not only stops brave people to come to Iran and tell the right story to the world but also encourages them to help many people who don't want the Islamic Republic but they have not weapons in their hands.
Dictatorships are toppling my friend erdogan has 3 months at best, putin-pullout is falling out of favor among the russian generals, Hamaneys regime is toppling, freedom awaits us all
do u really live in iran?
Traitors will never win
You visited one of the First Nations that brought civilisation to all man kind. Amazing place is Iran.
Iran was a beautiful country indeed!
And sadly this beutiful country has a terrorism regime. Iran Regime kills Iranian children
#IRGC_Terrorist
@WildVikingTravels I saw ur video on women and I got so pissed I almost quit my job to answer each comment on that post , but seeing this video, I understand now, you are traveling in a van and u probably visit traditional towns and people that I've never seen in my entire life ... as u mentioned, iran is huge... and thing are way more complicated ...
Yeah just needs to overthrow the government
Lol brought civilization to all mankind you mean civilization to cultures in the same area as them
Great video, greatings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱, I am Turkish but born and raised in the Netherlands. Selam to my brothers and sisters in iran and all Iranian people 🇹🇷🇦🇿🇹🇲🇮🇷 ❤️
Heyhey.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
We send our best from Pakistan!
@@WildVikingTravels ohh great you guys are at the middle of the way, have a great and safe journey. Keep it up there you're almost in Japan 💪💪
@@WildVikingTravels So How is pakistan?
Big Love And Respect from IRAN ❤️❤️
Iranians and Turks have so much in common. Language, culture, way of life, hospitality and so much more. My wife and I have been learning Turkish for more than 18 months now with intension of moving to the country but due to Politcal and Religous climate we have changed our mind. Turkey is such a beautiful country. Last March 2023 we travelled through it for 5 weeks from Istanbul to Trabzon to Bursa, Denizli, Antalya, Izmir and back to USA. We are going back in March again in our next European trip through Turkey, Greece, Italy and finally moving to Portugal. My mother was an Azeri from Baku, Azerbayjan.
As an Iranian guy, I should say we greeting everybody from every nations and you all welcome to iran. That’s a pleasure to be ur host here and create enjoyable trip for you.
As an Iranian i proud you
Because you shown up the real economical situation in iran .
Thank you for the kind words!
@@WildVikingTravelsThe economic situation in Europe is a disaster in America and... the media only shows Iran as hell and the West as heaven... the reality is that there are problems in all countries of the world... everywhere has its own problems and good things. .. Iran, which is the most sanctioned country in the world, full of human history, and very heavy psychological media pressure in all fields... full-fledged soft war... but Turkey, which was not sanctioned and did not have an 8-year war with the world... We all gave Saddam Hussein arms support and various other aids.. and Iran was alone and sanctioned.. we were also sanctioned with barbed wire and... Turkey's situation is worse than Iran.... black propaganda and... its effects are the same
iran is just hidden gem on the earth,its the place of eastern and western culture's mix and rich country with natural resources.
Yes sadly your right. And Iran Regime kills Iranian children
#IRGC_Terrorist
It could be a good country. But these mullahs turn it into utter hell.
@@sinsinsinat5377 yes when the leader is sheep and has millions of lions,he can't progress his country well,it should be in the controversy 1 lions and millions of sheeps
I totally agree it is a wonderful place!
Hey Joe, thanks for your informative travelogue with many cultural and political details within your short stay in Iran. Good job 👍👍👍
This was amazing!! I’m glad that you enjoyed your time in Iran cause it’s really a beautiful country, i hope someday no government or no politician separates people from each other, and also Iran has such a rich culture as you’ve seen and it’s just so sad that a lot of people from around the world can’t visit this country and most of the younger generations of Iranians are leaving their country for better life and education and of course better economy, i just hope you guys the best and i hope that you can visit Iran in the future.
I have been living in Iran for almost three years. My wife is Iranian. We moved here from Canada and we absolutely love it ! Iran is amazing ! The people are so sweet, the food is amazing, the country is beautiful and it is safe.
I'm curious about it :)
@@SOBERKINGS ask me anything. I will answer all your questions to the best if my knowledge. It's a traditional, very conservative society but also progressive values. The idea is to protect human dignity in everything. Sometimes we don't like limits on things, but all traditional cultures have them in sone way. Ancient 5000 year old cultures. Maybe there is a reason for that ?
So is it not a police state with heavy censorship?
@@alexsrouji1116 I want to move to Iran as well. But Iranian people are escaping their country so is it a not really good place to live?
@@fabihalamisa3845 the Iranians who are moving away are the ones in love with western modern empty materialistic lifestyle. The Iranians who remain are usually the more famille oriented and traditional ones. The ones who believe in our traditional culture and values
When I was in Iran I had many fun and I am from Afghanistan
Glad to hear that!
I really enjoyed this video and thank you for your authentic and impressive information. Glad you guys enjoyed our home❤
Great video! Thanks
Glad you liked it!
Excellent episode. Very eye-opening.
Fantastic to have you back. Keep going doing a great job
Thank you for the kind words!
Thank you for the video and glad that you enjoyed your time in Iran. I really hope political circumstances change in the coming years so you can visit again.
You visited us at a turbulent time and your observations are quite accurate. Most people are sick of the religious rules and as you said many people don't care about the rules anymore (although they have become more strict in the past months). Most people mock the rules among friends and family.
I laughed so hard at the driving part cause it's so true 🤣. Driving in Tehran is like being in a gladiator fight. You'll need some time to get used to it. It's usually a good idea to let a local drive you around (but of course in your case you had all of your stuff in your van)
Hey! Thank you for the comment and remarks here! We would LOVE to come to Iran again! There was so much we would like to see and tell the world about Iran's magic. Sadly yeah, our visit was so much clouded with what was happening that the stories we told about Iran were different. But Iran deserves so much more publicity about the kind locals, unique culture and history and amazing country that it is!
Thank you. Great video. Very informative.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for visiting my country. You broke all the stereotypes in the west and made an attempt to know more about other countries this is admirable imo. Some points like locals giving you stares or officials accepting you to be married mostly occur in rural areas. But I agree most Iranians are humble and kind, we have less toxic nationalism than the western countries imo.
Thank you for traveling here! You might wanna see other places in iran too. We have some big cool looking mountains in chabahar. And very cool looking graves in mashhad.
Can Americans visit Iran?
Thank you! We had quite the adventure during these 40 days in Iran 😊
@@mixythedog yes they can but they should move by group tour or with private tourlider
please recommend a tour company
you are a wonderful homan being. I've been waiting for 40 years for someone to capture the truth about iran. you nailed it
So glad you enjoyed the video and understood our point.
We send our best wishes! 🙏😁
There are many languages in the world but you choose to speak facts... As an Iranian(and a persian) i really appreciate the honesty... The good the bad and the ugly... And the struggles
😮 thank you to tell me about all this i will talk it out of my travel list
Welcome back, great video, very informative and enjoyable.
Heyhey.
It's good to be back.
And also glad to hear you enjoyed the video 😁👍.
Best wishes from Pakistan
@@WildVikingTravels I'm definitely looking forward to more of your travels in Iran, so much history there.
Hi Jo, Great to see your channel up and running again I am sure that your subscribers were worried about you both not posting in such a long time. We feel like close friends I guess following you on your travels so we get concerned when there is no signs of you. I am talking for all of us that cares about your safety and wellbeing. Looking forward to your next videos and travel through Iran. So lovely to see you again.
Linda!
So amazing to hear from you!
Hahh yes, the month was rough, we were able to post one thing on Instagram but pretty much nothing worked 🙁.
Iranian government is doing everything in their power to suppress theyr people and stop them from having connections with the outside world.
Ohh but I just have to say that it feels amazing to be back and again in a country that allows us to walk and talk as we will.
We really hope that you had a lovely Christmas and fun new years eve!
Hugs and best wishes 🙏😊
Joe and Liisu!
Great video, I feel like I wanna cry 😢❤️❤️
So glad you enjoyed it!
"Everyone is considered criminal."
A sad but unfortunately true statement :(
Stop spreading LIES.
Depends on what you consider a criminal
Do you comprehend the implications and magnitude of accusing an entire country, with 80 million people, of being criminals? Making such a foolish and broad statement has far-reaching consequences. You look like a criminal to me, Arvin. How about that?
Lots of accurate details.
Good video.
hey man its good video,but some information is not true as you mentioned :,,there are only eastern toilets"" nah man we have western too and its mostly in the big cities and urban areas + you showed randomly the poor side of Iran instead of rich side
Exactly. I reacted to that defamation. It's like if I go visit Amsterdam's red light district and make a video calling all dutch women sex workers 🥴 that's the same level of stupidity.
He forgot to mention that toilet paper cannot be flushed inside the toilet, that's why you can't find it. Also the way he pronounced Iran.. Irrrrrrran (lol)🥴
And the Arab music in the background and not to mention his lady dressing up like an Arab ... (They probably think Iranians are related to Arabs too)
I am sure you are correct!
I sadly don't have the full truth and we only share our own experiences 😁
@@WildVikingTravels I'm sure you tried your best to be completely honest with your experiences. Actually, there's a huge gap between economic and cultural classes in Iran, and that's what mullahs brought forward to the people. You may find so luxurious ways of living in big cities like Tehran and Isfahan that you can rarely find in Europe. Anyway, I wish you back again in Iran, this time in its free version like the 70s. Thank you million times. (we are used to millions as you know 😉😄)
Always a pleasure to have foreigners visit our country, I hope we can see you again bro, peace.
Can you please recommend a tour company?
@@sukainaversi9844 TAP Persia
Great video
You are a brave and honest observer and explorer. Iran’s name has been provoking different feelings in people since 2500 yrs ago. This shall pass and Iran will be great again.
Wild vikings you guys are awesome.
Love you guys.❤
Ur content was very incredibly and easy to understand. U deserved more subscribers
Thank you so much 😀.
And we are so Gald to hear that you enjoyed the video 🙏😊.
Best wishes from Pakistan!
Great job!!!👍Thanks for telling truth about IRAN.🙏🏼
Hey man! Nice video. I saw you were carrying a Coop bag in the shopping center. Did you bring the bag yourself or is there a Coop in Iran? 🤔
Naah, it was ours 😅.
We have dozens bags like this in the van and use them whenever possible 😁.
But man you are good at noticing small details 😁👍
@@WildVikingTravels Thanks 😄 Well for someone who's been to Coop a lot, I instantly noticed it and was actually hoping for a Coop there 😃 Keep up the good work!
That was perfect bro!
Glad you think so!
Missed you! Great video about Iran! Thank you both! Xoxo 💋
Thank you so much!
Long time no see, after watching this video, I was inexplicably moved！
Thank you for putting your life into making videos and hope you have a wonderful year！👍🥰🙏🙌🎉
Heyhey!
We are so glad to be and happy to be posting again!
Sending best wishes from Pakistan 😊🙏
@@WildVikingTravels Thanks a lot for letting me know, you are amazing! Have a great travel, all my best wishes to you too!
What an amazing video
Great video. I don’t think I seen any videos from Tehran. Also If you end up going back you should travel to Shomal as well.
this is the most accurate video I've seen of someone visiting Iran. Thank you and I hope you enjoyed your stay
Thank you! Appreciate your kind words 😊🙏
Good video... Truth
خوشحالیم که از کشور ما دیدن کردید.. امیدوارم خوش گذشته باشه
I believe your story, have seen other video and enjoyed the report and comments SUPER
Awesome, thank you!
Great video my good froend is from Bandar y anzali on the camping sea and I have learnt a lot about his country from him this showed me so much more
Great 👍
And one another thing, you'll be able to visit Iran again , sooner or later , and we'll be more than happy to welcome you in the more
mountainous region of the country🤘
Thank you! Hope to visit Iran again in the future and the mountains as well when it is warmer!
So happy to see you back and safe ❤️
Amazing video, just this first one I have learnt so much. Really looking forward to seeing Iran through your eyes.
When you see the history of Iran, it's sad what is happening today 💔
🙏😁.
I totally agree!
Iran has been through so much and it is hard to see what is happening there now.
But we are still so grateful for the experience and if nothing more than we now know how to appreciate our lives and freedoms more than ever before 😊
Why would he not be back safe 😂😂😂😂lol. Stop your spread of ignorance, thanks!
@BlueBlue-mm7kn Because at the time there was no news from them for several weeks from the day they entered the country. Before (and after) entering Iran we had updates regularly while travelling, then silence.
Great video 📹 thanks for sharing. Do you think it would be safe to drive from dubia to iran by ferry and then onto Turkey.
Is iran going to be dangerous?.🤔
Totaly love Your storytelling :) good to see You safe back!
Thanks so much! 🙏😊
Love from iran❤
Many of the words were not 100% correct and exaggerated
I say this as an Iranian
I don't know why you show the life of Iranian people from the poorest city of Iran
It was enough to go to Shiraz and see the infrastructure of the city. People think that Iran lives in the past 100 years, while Iranians are very modern and educated.
Well since Islam came to Iran they live in the 6. Century
@@BlueTigerReal that s exaclty west media and this channel try to u think.
we love islam and islam is every thing for us. even important than mother and dad.
this is islam that told us have attention to our mom and dad.
you will understand this if know the faith word means.
but problem is if our previous presidets not leader(he do not have faults) pay attention to solve the problems with help of friend countris instead of jcpoa and co op with west we dont have this much problems right now. and all of this can happy under heviest sanctions that ever existed. sanctions wich you dont know mean of that.
secondly. even cyrus the graet before islam was prophet of god. so iranian always was relgious peaple.
@@Rezalmd muhammad was pedophile
I don't know why people think Iranian people are not modern and educated. What do you mean the poorest cities? There quite a lot of Shiraz, Esfahan and Yazd here in the video.
as a guy that lives in iran for 27 year i must say number 3-5-10 is truth man and there is 1 question how could u take camera in the prison and ur alone there?
Heyhey.
The prison shot was actually from Iraq.
There's a museum there, but we used a shot to illustrate the story 😁.
Best wishes from Pakistan!
I am very happy that you have come to Iran. Iran is a very beautiful country and most of us love Imam Khamenei
Thank you bro
Welcome
it was really a great video
So glad to hear you enjoyed it!
Lovely, so honest and well explained. Loved it❤️
Thank you so much 😊
Im happy that you two are now married
The book at 12:00 translates to "Defensive readiness".
Thanks for translation!
It felt weird to see such subject on the curriculum
welvome bro...hope that see you again
Thanks you are very brave❤
Great video. I am glad you enjoyed your time in Iran. Thank you for sharing the video.😢
Our pleasure.
So glad to hear that you are enjoyed the video!
Thank you for telling the truth about iran.
In the hope of Iran's freedom 🙏
Brother can you interfere in the law of America as a Person From UK that no one can use alcohol below the age of 20 . Because the age to use alcohol in UK is 18 .For example if you visit America with an age of 19 you can not use alcohol.But only one day before,in UK you can use.So it is senseless that you say this is Injustice in America and must be vanished.Brother simple, we will say this is law in America of you have problem you can avoid from visiting America .Moreover,in every day life if we visit we only try to practice law of that country.And it is consider to be senseless to say that I will protest for it .Moreover ,is it right to interfere other's country law from outside.Similarly wearing Hijab is a Law like other laws ,so if any one avoid it ,one will be treated accordingly.I mean different countries have different laws,so you can not impose your laws on other countries.Can you do it? Simple, answer is no.
Iranians! How did your grandparents allowed such atrocities to happen? Do you talk to them when you visit them? You are baring the consequences of their cowardice. It’s the land of Prince of Persia where I would want to live and enjoy an amazing life
It's funny that alcohol is ban in Iran but It was an Iranian who discovered alcohol
alcohol is not really good for health if you ask me and I'm not even from Iran. Please don't believe anything the people from west says. You're so lucky to live in Iran. I hope you find hapiness wherever you're living. Pls don't hate me for whatever I said but it's just I can't understand why Iranians hate their country so much when their government is literally protecting them from west propaganda. West isn't as cool and fun as it seems, I don't know why but I find Iran much safer and cooler from any other muslim/non muslim coutries. I live in France and I literally hate it.
Alcoholic drinks and that alcohol are not really the same... Alcoholic drinks are also far older than the discovery of regular alcohol..
Beautiful ❤️❤️
Thank you! Cheers!
so accurate as a native! still having hope for getting back the country
yhank you
i'm not from iran but i want to live in iran no matter what you have to shut up not all are criminals yes some are the ones who don't respect the rules yes the toilets may be strange but the culture has hosted it may be annoying but it's their fault does not
Sorry I didn't understand this comment
AMAZING.
very interesting comment about traffic rules in Iran :)
Before to watch this video, recently I told my Mexican neighbor about squat toilets and she didn't know, never heard
Haha. Yea, they are quite common is this part of the world 😅
Love you from iran ❤
3:00 Thanks that say everyone in iran is nice when I went there I was kinda mocked
Hello, my dear friend, don't worry, you can travel to Iran again
One's culture is different "from" and "to" the other's. What we don't know is not weird or abnormal but it's just "what we don't know". But a lot of people miss this simple basic common and sensible truth. Even morality! What is acceptable to one could be unbelievable or even unbearable to the others and being able to accept and understanding that makes everything so simple and beautiful. Good 👍
عالی داش
At the age of 14, we have a school lesson called "Defense Preparation," which is addressed one hour a week. I wish you had done a little research before recording your video. Iranian students have a high level of science in terms of empirical science and mathematics due to the high level of their textbooks at school.
I guess this is the same subject that our Iranian friends translated as 'in case of military issues'.
@@WildVikingTravels The main issue is that in schools, children are not taught how to use tools and facilities to kill people, but the textbooks have a very high scientific level.
In the descriptions you stated Iran is closed-off... exactly how is it closed-off if I may ask?
Hugh travel restrictions.
Ban on free media, ban on most internet sites.
Sanction of foreign goods...
@@WildVikingTravels If you are an American, Canadian and sometimes British then yes, you cannot travel to everywhere you please. Must be with a travel guide. So this isn't exactly related to your statement as only 3 countries have this restriction.
Unless, you meant Iranians have travel restrictions... and that is a huge lie! They can easily leave their country! It depends only on the country that they are planning to go to that whether it accepts them or not!
No idea which country has the real "free" media. For you guys, it's mostly like what I want to be known as "free" media...
Most sites are not banned in Iran, yes, certain websites are, such as Pornography, various news outlets that are mostly Western(with exceptions, The Guardian), FB, Twitter, YT, ... which you are correct. But Iranians just bypass it all using VPN and proxies, it is not like China which can cause certain issues.
The Sanctions are most of an outsiders fault than Iran's... like really... if they cared about the people, why sanction the general public?
My father is from Iran, I am American and was born in Oregon. I loved your video ❤
Thanks for your kind words!
And we are glad you enjoyed it!
thanks for the truth 👍❤️
you are very brave
Thank you!
I didn't know people who spread lies and propaganda for money are considered to be brave.
I’m Persian,we love vikings.❤
As an Iranian I have to say living here is hard because we’re paying 6000000 rials for 1$ but the people are so kind NOT THAT KIND
Sad to hear about the inflation and currency decline.
Hopefully it will get better soon!
what do you mean by have to stay here love your land if it is hard time try to get out of it be patient everything will be good sooner or later but love your country i ma not iranian but i love people their culture.
1. You can freely hold hands as thousands do 2. No one asks you if you're married unless for visa issues 3. Your lady is overdoing the conservativeness, as long as you have a scarf on half your hair that's enough, in Tehran take scarf off too 4. Everyone in Iran is a criminal is the worst possible way to say everyone is against government's strict rules. 5. We dislike toilet paper and prefer washing because paper just rubs the shit on your body leaving it stinky. I've lived in America for 4 decades but I use a bidet to wash my butt clean and use paper just to absorb the final drop of pee. 6. The hole-toilets are only in cheap hotels, in better hotels they all have sitting type. 7. Less than 10% of Iranians practice Islam and not even correctly. 98% have Zoroastrian culture and live like atheists. 8. To describe Iranian hospitality imagine you buy a house, then you furnish the nicest room, lock and leave it for Mehmaan or guest, room is called Mehmaan-khaaneh or guest-house.
Thank you for clarifying! 🙏😊
We understand that many of those rules are true only on paper and as tourists we will never fully understand the current situation.
But it was still amazing to see iran ourselves!
@@nafasjand7729 as an iranian watching i felt very well represented and their comments were never byased it was their understanding of iran and it was pretty good and entertaining
@Nafas Jand Everything he said is basically true. Women do get whipped in Iran. It is against the law for two people of opposite genders to hold hands in the public, even though the authorities usually turn a blind eye on the lawbreakers.
His only point of comparison between Iran and North Korea was that they're both among the most sanctioned counties in the world, which is true.
Iran attracts very few tourists relative to its amazing potential, and that's indisputable. In 2017, 40 million tourists visited Turkey, while only 4 million visited Iran in the same year.
@@nafasjand7729 dude the videos might be taliban but the rules are still in place in iran you might be wiped in a closed room insted of in public but you will be wiped holding hands is illegal it's just rarely enforced and in my opinion dictatorship is dictatorship the freedom people of iran have is the freedom we fight for unless we would be no different from the north korea and if you think khamenei wouldn't love for us to be like them you are dead wrong
@@lambert801Iran attracted 9.1 million tourists in 2019, which was over twice more than the years before. It could’ve been like Turkey by now, but then Covid hit, and after that the protests started. Iran is slowly getting less and less Isolated from the world thanks to protests.
i loved the way you sat on that toilet sink 😂😂
When you have no idea what those are, why speak? They are called squatting toilets and many parts of the world including the US has them... There are sitting toilets in a lot of places in Iran, especially homes. Do more research please.
Though you should know that the majority of Iranians themselves are comfortable with the squatting ones than the sitting toilets.
Hey Joe and Liisu..WELCOME BACK.. Sometimes White Lies are necessary.. Happy ye made it through..with the Protests.
Where did you get the CARNET DU PASSAGE.. WAS IT ..ADAC ?? ANYWAY great to have ye back ..Stay Free and Safe Travels 😀 👍 🙏
ps. Hey Joe beer 🍺 hope you kept a bottle as a souvenir...#
Heyhey!
Mike!
So good to hear from you and well we are happy to be back 😅😀.
Yea, our carnet is ADAC from Germany.
Luckily our van is not very expensive on the outside and se we were able to bargain it into the lower bracket of the carnet.
Hahh, no I didn't keep the beer, they tasted as good as they were named and they had no chance of staying more than a week in the van 🤣.
Hope you have had a great month and a half and we send our best from Pakistan!
@@WildVikingTravels Hey Joe in Pakistan be careful about Diesel ..you may have Watched Pierogi Travels. They ended up having to Abandon their Van.. because of Shit Diesel ⛽ 🙄 so I hope you have a Funnel with a Very fine Gauze which stops Water 💧 or Similar .. Just a thought...!!!!
Among all youtubers who have visited Iran, you made the most realistic picture of this country. it made me really happy. thank you
Thank you so much for your supportive words. There has been a lot hate on our Iranian videos and it just feels good to read some kind words.
Hello.
He is one of peaple that leave outside of country and not iranian.
i am from inside of iran we didnt hate you. but but actully your talks about iran not true.
we love our leader. for example that myrtr you show in video was genral soleimani he was one of our heroes that 10 milion peaple go for his funral. but you called it propaganda.
so defently peaple of iran hate you in this way.
u talk about protest or redicles hijab! but tell me are u see any protester in iran?
if you just show one single video that ten thousnd peaple protest iam tell you are good travler! but there isnt.
hijab or islamic rules all of them has reasons that you may not know and u cant juge them base on your likes and vills.
yes we have some problems in our country becuse of sanctions and some of our peaple lose their fate but we love Allah(GOD) and every thing we have is from him. and we ready to sacrfice everything for his orders. if u cant understand these its only becuse you are not relgs man and dont know faith word means.
so if you tell truth about iran nobody hates you
@@Rezalmd why do you love Khayemani? what did he do for you?
@@WildVikingTravels oh, don't mind these ppl. they get paid by writing these comments. I'm sure that you'd understand it because you've seen the Regime's Propaganda and felt what we're feeling among these ruthless and rotten minded animals. I believe in your Judgement, bro.
by the way, do you think you'd visit Iran again after the Mullah's fall?
@@Rezalmd you support the satanic regime and its evil supreme leader khamenei? They must be keeping your family very well fed in Iran. Iranians are fed up and will take back their country….
As an Iranian, I deny most of your words
Will you elaborate?
@@WildVikingTravelsI’ll elaborate for him
1- You can hold hands in Public, it’s completely normal and socially accepted
2- there are also Regular toilets in Iran as well, there isn’t just squat toilets
3- You only showed the desserts of Iran, you didn’t show any of the big cities or Touristic sites.
4- The man you showed who had died for The government of Iran was General Qassem Soleimani
Keep in mind that I am not a fan of Iran’s government, but I will not put up with BS about my home country.
@@lw1xwyd828 And I don't think he will ever have the decency to reply back...
The whole purpose of these videos is just to attract viewers, which means more $$$
Hi joe a very interesting video you do seem somewhat liberated to be out of Iran 😅although the gas prices were a bonus great to see use back and so looking forward to japan have fun
Heyhey!😊
Yes!😅
We are truly happy to be in a country where we don't have to constantly look over our shoulder and can once again freely walk and talk.
It feels good to be back! 😁
@@WildVikingTravels glad to see you both back have fun 🦋
من عاشق دولت وکشورم ایران هستم ایران به زودی به امپراطوری خودش باز خواهد گشت

@@WildVikingTravelsYou freed Iran once (when you overthrew Mossadegh with a coup d'état and reinstated the Shah). After the revolution, the Americans created many problems for Iran for several years with their sanctions, which destroyed Iran's economy and as a result Causing people to suffer for several years now, they are trying to create a color revolution in Iran, like what they did in Ukraine and Georgia.
I am from iran
Thanks for the realities of Iran that you mentioned 💯👌
But sometimes I think 🤔 If I was born in another country, how would be my life and my future.
We live on the same planet but with different lives.
If they caught you with alcohol then the penalty is lashes and lashes numbers depends how much alcohol you have.
Ohh crap...
Yea we have not had a drink in months
I loved watching your journey and the footage of a land and people I miss dearly but had to leave behind and may never see again. I am so glad that my people treated you like proper guests. There’s a famous old Iranian poem that states that those who cannot empathize with a person in need cannot claim the title of human. And unlike the inhuman government, the Iranian people try to provide extra care and kindness to a guest unfamiliar with our homeland, to make sure they feel comfortable and welcomed. I’m so glad that you felt their humanity.
So Gald you enjoyed the video.
Yes, Iran has so much to offer the world and I truly hope that soon it will once again be part of the free world 🙏😊
@@WildVikingTravels Hi you have visited Iran but your mind has been poisoned by western propaganda which you have judged everything based on anti Iran propaganda without trying to ask about facts & what is reality just by relying on unreliable & weak sources of information.
Wondering where exactly could you swim as a couple?? (Beautiful video, congrats 👏👏👏💐)
Heyhey.
We found places on southern coast where there was no one else (we traveled with our own car so it is not that hard).
Best places were on Qeshm Island.
@@WildVikingTravels thanks 😊💐
So glad to see you guys safe…. I am learning a lot about the world from you guys. Take care.
Thanks for the kind words!
We are safe and sound and it is so nice to hear that our videos have a meaning to you.
We share the world as we see it and although it is definitely not 100% as the whole country is. Then this is the iran that we saw during the current Protests.
Best wishes and hugs from Pakistan!
@@WildVikingTravels have a safe and great experience in pakistan. Look forward to see video from pakistan soon.
Why wouldn’t he be safe😂😂😂 please stop spreading ignorant MISSINFORMATION.
As a iranian i could say there is some wrong things , but true at all
True!
We only spent 40 days in the country and whole info is just made on our observations and not the whole truth!
@@WildVikingTravels yeah , for example , you can grab your partner hands without fear 😂 .
Or is there something else, some extremists who have a relatively large population are supporters of the regime and Islam, and they are the reason why the government remains standing. Even during the protests, the police did not engage with the protesters much, the extremists were hostile to them. Somehow the Iranian regime has managed to organize a large percentage of the population so that they are more than its military force
❤❤❤
Please do algeria my country
11:40 in America we literally learn the same way💯
Really 😅😅😅.
In Europe it is much more neutral
