- How beautiful is the old port city of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia?! We were very fortunate to meet Hossni on our first day in Jeddah who offered to meet up with us and then took us to see the beautiful old town of Al Balad, Jeddah.
Thank you for your special hospitality, Hossni. And for showing us around Saudi Arabia!
Thanks for watching! :)

The boys are too kind and sweet may Allah Protect them and welcome to🇸🇦
Thank you very much :)
One of the things that may have not been mentioned is that “AlBalad”, is actually the original “Downtown”, of Jeddah and that it is one of the oldest downtowns in history among modern or other contemporary cities around the world … some people would think that places like Damascus or Cairo are older, but, the fact that the name of the city is Jeddah translated from Arabic means Grandmother, because the last resting place of Eve (Adam and Eve), is in Jeddah predating any and all other cities on Earth …
Thank you it’s a beautiful city.
Thank you it’s a beautiful city.
I heard about this story a lot, and that Adam landed in India and they met in Arafat, so it was called Arafat because they met and recognition each other
there.
arafat in arabic means (recognition)
true 👍👍👍👍

God bless Saudi Arabia. 🇸🇦
In the summer, Saudis go to cold cities such as: Taif, Al Baha, Baljurashi, Sabt Al Alaya, Al Namas, Tanomah, Abha, Bellahmar, Balsamer, Fifa Mountains.
Do not leave Saudi Arabia except by visiting archaeological sites, the most important of which are: Al-Ukhdood in Najran, Jubbah and Shuwaymis mountains, Maghaer Shuaib Cave, Musas Mountain, Diriyah, The Red Sea Islands in Umluj and Al-Wajh
Saudi Arabia is best visited with cultural festivals such as: Janadriyah Festival, Souk Okaz Festival, Taif Rose Festival, Olive Festival in Al-Jawf, Dates Festival in Qassim,Jasmine Festival in Jizan
etc..
THANK YOU for adding Al Ukhdood it's so underrated that it's upsetting to me! The site is FILLED with history!
جبال فيفا وين في اي مدينه
Thank you for sharing this unique place. It seems like a chapter taken off a book of ancient Arabic tales❤️
that traditional coffee house, the ambience, that kid and the women selling ice lollies are straight off books I read as a kid. This part of the world is such an interesting place 😍 Safe travels to all of you ❤️
Thanks @Janice we really appreciate your kind feedback. And it is certainly a fascinating place to visit and learn about!
You are very welcome in Jeddah, my city. The city is witnessing a significant development in buildings and other things currently. I hope you will visit it in the winter. The weather will be very nice. ❤️
Thank we will definitely be back again. What an amazing country.
8:00 this is basically how ice cream used to be served traditionally, and it was home made. There would be someone in the neighborhood who specializes in making these and every kid in the block would come by the house to buy
For real those days were gone, still miss this kinda of iceberg and this kinda life joy upon joy honestly 😁
I love the Hejazi song touch so neat 😍😍👌
Are you still in Jeddah?

Welcome to your second country🇸🇦. I apologize for the bad reception💔. We look forward to your return again. Thank you. I wish you a wonderful and happy trip.❤️
Loved how intense and serious the elderly men playing Dominoes! and btw the ice pops are called among Saudi's as the "old days Ice cream" as it was famous i think back in the 70s or 80s for being easily made at home and you can enjoy it and cool down after school!
How interesting! Thank you 😊
I hope you guys have a wonderful trip in Saudi (:
And don't forget to check out albaik restaurant in Jeddah
Thank you! We have absolutely loved Saudi Arabia so far!

@@AwaywiththeSteiners u are welcome.
This is that best Iced scoop you could ever test, you really missed out guy it’s just reminds me of the old good day 😁
:D
Hello 💙💙 such a sweet family I'm from Jeddah, and you should go to ubhur and rent a boat from there also there's a jetski... also the corniche it's very beautiful to see the sunset, and you ride a bicycle there.. also the tallest fountain in the world it's in alhamra near from the flag (they sometimes remove the flag because of the weather) ... also there is a restaurant called shrimp anatomy it's really good... hope you enjoyed💙 you should come in the winter, not in the summer.
I wish if you guys walked further inside and reached Nassif house, it’s the finest old building in the site, if you consider revisiting this place, consider walking across Nassif house, it’s well-known building in the area
👍🌹🇸🇦❤️ You are most welcome and God bless you and your family.
So nice of you :)
Come visit the South of Saudi Arabia where is the good weather. There are good places like Abha city, Rijal Almaa and An-Nimas Rijal Almaa has the heritage village. From there you can go forther toward the south to the city of Jazan. Where you will find variety of delicious food such as Marsa (brown bread chopped with banana and both local honey and ghee), fish magsh ( local fish cooked in saucepan made of stone)...etc. moreover there are good places in Jazan like Wadi Lajab ( similar to wadi dissa), Fayfa ( a town build in the top of the high mountain), further more, you can go to Farasan Island. I hope this was a good guiding for you and have fun.

Your content is amazing in enjoying the holidays which makes me love watching this content. In the future, you create content for your vacation to Indonesia, namely to the beautiful beaches of Bali, the largest Hindu temple in Bali which is located on the island of Bali, the history of the palace on the island of Java belonging to Sultan Hamengkubuwono in Yogyakarta, the Malioboro market in Yogyakarta, playing off-road cars. on the slopes. Mount Merapi in Yogyakarta, Borobudur Temple in Magelang, the Museum of the History of the Battle of Surabaya in 1945 in the city of Surabaya which is known as an icon of the people of Surabaya, and the Monas Statue which is an icon of the historical statue of the proclamation of Indonesian independence in 1945 in the city of Jakarta and many other historical relics in Indonesia.

اهلاً . . وسهلاً❤️
Come and visit Iraq 🇮🇶🇮🇶🇮🇶😍
Wow so nice vlog Oscar and Harry🌺🌸🥀🌹
Thank you 😊
Watching from jeddha
Thanks for watching! 🤩
What makes Jeddah so special is the cultural and ethical diversity. The pilgrimage who came to the peninsula and stayed brought their culture and traditions with them. So Jeddah is a melting pot of literally everything.
We really enjoyed seeing and learning about that diversity. Very interesting.
@Stadler Huyna Who told you that?
@Stadler Huyna We have more Christians in Jeddah than Muslims in most of America’s state and european cities. And I don’t get your point why it’s a problem that all of them are Muslims?
Nice video
I guess you're not going to Riyadh, if so pleaase visit Boulevard City there, king Abdullah financial district and stop by the popular coffee shop, I'm sure you will be surprised by how different everything is there
Kindly mention the name of music you used in vedio. Thanks! Have a nice journey!
I advice you to go to Abha it is really amazing and the weather is actually cold 😂😂👍🏻.
my best bro my best sis my best niece thank you for your huge respect against cpec friendship countries lot of love from your best bro viki 💙
مرحبا بكم في المملكة العربية السعودية
واتمنى لكم رحله سعيده

The fountain was established during the reign of the late King Fahd Bin Abdelaziz … it’s used, along with the flag on the flagpole, the same way displaying the Union Jack on top of Buckingham Palace and other residences of British Sovereignty to indicate weather He/She is currently in residence and that is the real they are made to be so tall …
Wow! Very interesting.
Come to the city of Hail because its weather is beautiful and it has amazing views💓
You’re more than welcome in Saudi Arabia .. I hope you’re having fun and a great time and we are happy for you and Saudi Arabia very happy to have you ❤
See you soon in Riyadh 🎉
Thank you very much! We feel very happy and very lucky for the opportunity to visit Saudi Arabia 🙂🙂
I’m wondering why you didn’t spend that much time in Riyadh
please visit us in al qassim region it has the biggest date farms in the country and probably in the world
القهوة العربيه في السعوديه كلما اتجهت الى الشمال تصبح أعمق
The little girl wanted to perform a song to you and say the boy's names in it similar to a birthday song when you say the person's name. She got shy it seems and didn't continue haha. Enjoy your stay and welcome to Saudi Arabia
Oh thank you!
1. is this the right time / season to visit Saudi Arabia or the ME in general, since it's so hot there at this time of the year?
2. _When_ and _if_ you are going to visit Egypt, Turkey, Iran and Jordan? I've been to Egypt a long time ago and travelled inside the country extensively for 3 months during Pharaoh Mubarak's reign. My experience was good on the whole with good memories, but I hear from others (some, not all) a somewhat different story nowadays. I would love to see it again through your eyes. I wonder if it's still the same or changed... 😀 Also, Iran and Turkey seems interesting. I hope to visit one or both of these countries sometime next year when the weather is cooler... I simply can't stand high temperature!
If you want to come to Saudi Arabia come in winter now it’s hot
@@hash9065 i surmised pretty much the same and was wondering why the Steiners are doing this at this time. Very hot places take the fun out of travelling - in my view. If you are forced to stay inside air-conditioned hotels, malls, cars, etc most of the time then there is no point in travelling there for fun.
@@GUULLIVER South of Saudi arabia is pretty cool .. like Abha , Alsamal, alsoda mountain
Haha yes it is very hot! But we truly feel grateful to have the chance to visit at any time :) We have spent a couple of weeks up in the hills of Saudi Arabia and they are beautifully cool at this time of year. It is an amazing country to explore!
@@GUULLIVER I have seen many travelers. There is no depth in explaining Islamic culture and Arab customs in Saudi Arabia. As for visiting in the summer, Saudis go to spend time in natural cities, which have beautiful weather in summer, such as Taif, Abha, Fifa Mountains, Al Baha and Al Namas.
Saudi Arabia has a lot of mountainous, coastal and desert terrain..and it can be visited in all seasons because the temperatures are different between desert cities and mountain cities..but it is better to choose what you want from the visit, do you want nature, culture, archaeological sites, etc..
The most important thing is to ask the people of cities about what are the most beautiful places. As a Saudi, there are many nearby Saudi cities. I do not know the most beautiful places except by searching for city-specific sites on Instagram and Twitter as evidence.
To enjoy the experience of visiting Saudi Arabia, try to visit it with the dates of cultural, tourism, shopping, agricultural and sports festivals. Each region has its own characteristics.
Saudi arabia looks so nice. I live in Dubai, I need to visit.
