Visit Jeita natural cave ...Amazing
I have visited 86 countries and Lebanon is definitely in my TOP 3 !!! Amazing nature, very rich culture and history, very welcoming and friendly people, crazy nightlife and very yummy food (I mean really really yummy) ! Beirut has it all ❤ ❤🇱🇧
Wow!! That’s such an achievement! Glad to hear you liked it! 🇱🇧♥️
I am curious to know the others 2 countries of your top 3 😊
@@dabbleandtravel A Lebanese Breakfast is Labneh with Olives Oil on it with Olives ( green, black or brown ones ), Mint Leafs, Thyme mix with Olive Oil, Cheese could be a Kaskavan or Feta Cheese or ( Akawi or Baladi or Chaneklish ) those 3 cheeses are Homemades or Feta or any kind of Cheese with Tomatoes, Cucumbers, with Pita or Markouk Bread.
Markouk Bread is Tiny or Very Tiny Bread it's like a Crepe Suzette But in Bread.
@@dabbleandtravel If you want it in simple way it could be a Manaïsh with Thym and they could add Mint Leafs, Tomatoes and Cucumber inside.
@@dabbleandtravel If you want a Breakfast or Could be a Dessert One the Best of the Best try a ( Kneffe ) with a Melting Cheese.
Just make a Quick Search to Know what i'm talking about.
Good Luck & Have a Nice Trip.
"Broken Paradise": this alone brought tears to my eyes. I miss my home so much. Most of us are scattered around the world, but would move back in a heartbeat if basic necessities were met. Heck, most of my friend are thinking of moving back even in this awful situation.
There's nothing like it in the world. The way we live our life and treat eachother is one of our best qualities.
Thank you for watching. We tried to show exactly what our experience was like x
My grandfather was born in Lebanon. In 1925 he went to Brazil, had 5 kids ( my father was one of them) then , he went back to Lebanon with my grandmother and died there. I was born in Brazil but moved the the USA 30 years ago. Someday I will visit Lebanon. My family last name is ABBUD.
I really wanna go to my country.. i only lived there for 4 years.. it's unfair.
My brother has lived in Lebanon for 6 years. Finally visited last year for 2 weeks and it was a life changing experience. My favorite country. Even when dealing with the worst economic crisis in the history of the world the people don’t get down on themselves. They’re still happier than the average American.
Thanks for watching!
Couldn’t agree with you more
im very happy in america but that is because my family are from lebanon haha
Hi! Someone knows if it’s mandatory to have a travel insurance? And if we can buy the tourist visa at the Beyrouth airport and how much it is ? Also if we have to pay it in cash or we can use our credit card thank you!
@@anaparedes9005 I’m not sure. What my brother did is because he was technically teaching English even though it was private he was granted a visa where he has to leave every few months then re-enter the country. I wouldn’t do it now though, even he is about to leave the Middle East. It would take a serious conflict for his Lebanese friends to advise him to leave. Which they did.
From UK love Lebanon 🇱🇧 🇬🇧 ❤
Hey! Thanks so much for watching!
Oh thanks we love you to 🇱🇧❤️🇬🇧
My wife is from Beirut Lebanon she worked in a law firm there for 23 years. Lebanese women know how to take care of their man. Most are highly educated with a strong faith and respect along with awesome old school family values. Most of my wife's female friends are doctors, lawyers, engineers, and architect's. Ect...
Lebanese Canadian here, and I loved your video and all the positive comments. I haven't been to Lebanon in such a long time, and watching this makes me want to go back. 🖤
DONT.
Fr pls dont isreal strikes again
Lebanon is awesome country. Love from Armenia 🇦🇲 ❤ 🇱🇧
There are many Armenians in Lebanon
Love back from Lebanon 🇱🇧♥️🇦🇲
It’s a shame you guys didn’t get to visit when lebanon was in a good economic situation because it really is day and night, but hope you enjoyed your stay : )
Thanks for watching. We still enjoyed ourselves and it really is an amazing country!!!
When were the good economic days? It never existed...
@@igarlic lol I’m not gonna tell you, better you do some research for yourself cause you clearly need a lot of it
@@royghosn18 I was born and raised in Lebanon. You clearly live in some fictitious world. The 130 billion dollars in debt was not accumulated overnight and rather was a result of bad economics, corruption and wars since the 70s. Go read some books.
I know right, In 2017 Mar Mikhail and the club scene was popping
Hello friends. I'm iraqi. I hope you enjoy in Iraq. We miss you so happy to have a nice time in Lebanon. Thank you indeed
Thank you so much! ♥️
A great Tour of Beirut. The city is making a comeback. Let's hope that the city regains its vibrancy. Thank you Matt and Molly👍 for taking us to places that we would not think about going to.
Many thanks for the work you put into your videos. Always, First Rate.👍👍👍👍👍 Looking forward to much more in this series. Love you Dearly❤❤❤ Harriet, Jim and Yuki
Richmond, Va.
Thank you so much! We appreciate you guys so much 😍♥️
The city is very vibrant just gotta go to the vibrant and authentic places.
Loved this video as I met some beautiful Lebanese people when I worked for the daily telegraph in London for over 11 years . We used to eat on the Edgware Road every Friday at his brothers Lebanese restaurant. Amazing food and people . This is very high up on our adventures for next year. Cheers
You would really enjoy it! Definitely recommend and of course the food is great ahah!
what an amazing portrayal of our beloved Lebanon! so much more to see and so many reasons to come back! ❤
Thank you!♥️
My heart will always hold so much love for my country, despite all the brokeness I feel watching this! Lebanon and the lebanese are strong and resilient. We will pick up and push through, bahibak ya lebnan ❤
Thank you for watching ♥️
Libanon, marvelous country
And friendly people.
I would like to soon see berut
Like before. Love from Paris ❤️💐
I love Lebanon, from Algeria
quick tip from your average local: do NOT exchange your dollars unless you absolutly need to, all store take dollars and can give you both currencies in change
Cheers & hats off to Molly & Matt for this great video of my dear country Lebanon, we are grateful to have such authentic friends like you...... thanks for all the great efforts you put to make this beautiful picture of Lebanon ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for watching! Appreciate it
I live in Lebanon and Im so happy that a CZcamsr is in Lebanon
Everything in Lebanon is amazing. I love this country....
The view is unbelievable!
It sure is!
Hey! Nice video ❤ As a Lebanese myself, I have to say this is very good portrayal of the country. The beauty of this gem of a country are highlighted very well, and the negatives are also shown and give us a sense of the reality that this country is not 100% at its best right now. You guys did your research, and it shows. You're always welcome 🇱🇧
Thank you so much! We appreciate it!
I'm really sad and annoyed that many Lebanese - presumably including you - only know 5-10% of their country and would think that it's representative so no it's a very superficial portrayal of the country, it's what you'd see if you were a rich tourist, spent 3-4 days in Beirut, stayed in a fancy hotel and not really interacted with locals beyond buying ordering your food.
Zeituna bay and mar mkhayel are representative of Lebanon?
@goPlay Hey well I don't know why ure making all those claims about me. This video is a good touristic portrayal of Beirut. It should be relatively superficial. These people aren't Lebanese, and don't live there, and shouldn't be expected to create an in depth video covering the political and inter-ethnic nuances of low-socio economic neighborhoods with rich histories in beirut such as Ouzaii for example. This is a good portrayal of the city for tourists who came here to spend a few days and have fun while also being mindful of the troubled background of the city.
You're promoting tourism in a country that has no electricity, no functional economy, rampant inflation.
Wait till your brain-dead viewers get the shock of their lives when they come to Lebanon.
''Oh no there is electricity. It is 40 degrees outside - i'm melting. How will I charge my iPhone??!''
You guys need to visit batroun, , jbeil, byblos in the north. Or go to the mountains to chouf or wadi qadisha or faraya! you'll love it
Coming soon!
@@dabbleandtravel I hope you guys enjoy!
Yes they really should!
I live in lebanon... IT'S NOT A MUST HAVE. IT'S AN ALWAYS HAVE.
appreciated that you loved it so much ❤
Beirut back in the day used to be called Paris of the Middle East , that was before the 15 year-long devastating war which destroyed much of the country and with it many communities.
🇱🇧🤝👍
Lebanon is still one of my most favourite countries I have been too still to this day! I visited in 2009 & 2010 & the Food is the BEST in the world 🇱🇧♥️🤌🏼
That guy feeding you with leaves, I can't 😂😂😂
It was too much 😂😂😂😂
Finally lebanon , welcome to lebanon guys , excited for the lebanese vlogs 😊
Thank you so much!
Best video of Singapore ever and didn’t cost anything .
A great start to the Lebanon series really cool to watch thank's for sharing guy's and catch you in the next episode
Thanks so much!
I've been waiting for this series.
Cheers
Thank you!
My great grandfather and his family had all moved from Lebanon by 1923, growing up I was always curious about my paternal origins and so I went for the first time in 2021 august. It was like seeing the Great Depression but in a sunny Mediterranean country
Nice, Lebanon! Too, so glad you guys went to IRAQ. We were some of the first to go and vlog it and we're so happy to see other go also. If there's one country that deserves travelers it's Iraq. I should add you guys looked genuinely happy there, beaming even :)
It’s such a unique destination and the people were so friendly. We loved it! Hope you enjoyed it too ♥️♥️
@@dabbleandtravel Absolutely, it was incredible.
Thanks for the awesome video! I'll be going in September and now I have a great idea of what to expect. 👏🏼
Don’t stay in Beirut, go to Jbeil (Byblos) and explore the mountains. It’s much cleaner and WAYYY more things to do and explore. Have fun!
@@anthonyzeyou have to go to Beirut because that’s were the only international airport is in Lebanon

The impression I get is that the brokenness seems well counterbalanced by a determination to rebuild and make beautiful. Not too bad at all.
It's a beautiful country, beautiful culture, beautiful people
Thanks for watching!
I like how you let us know the costs which is very important. For us to know. Thank you very much 😊.
From Lebanon love to everyone from the UK 🇬🇧🇱🇧

You are very sympathetic people. When I watch your video I can feel your engagement with the place you are visiting. Thank you.

You definitely must visit our country in summer. It's a complete different experience. Also in winter season you could have gone skiing in Faraya or Cedars of God. North Lebanon, where I am from, is also beautiful in it's nature. 🇱🇧❤
Thank you!♥️
Its one of my favorite countries 😍
Ours too 🥰
وصلتما الى لبنان اخيرا دعنا نشاهد الاماكن التي ستزورها بالتوفيق

Very cool video on Beirut :) Love it! Can't wait to watch the following ones. Hope you guys enjoyed! I grew up in Achrafieh, very close to Mar Mikhael. I miss the beachclubs and the nightlife. Will be there this summer, can't wait
Thanks so much! Appreciate it have a great time in the summer ♥️🇱🇧
12:13 it’s not just the blue mosque and martyr square, Lebanon is know for its unity throughout different religions, it’s called the united church and mosque area
لبنان باريس العرب>
أتمنى أزورهة فد يوم من الأيام
I used to walk along those benches at zaitunay bay when I was younger, I haven’t been in years 😩
Been wanting to visit Lebanon forever but every time I get close some disaster occurs. Hopefully things will improve.
It’s a great country! Can’t wait to show more!
As a Lebanese If you go you will enjoy even after all of the crises all the people there are wonderful and nice
