Bet You Didn't Know This Part of Saudi Arabia // Overland Series Ep.25

[@buffalo4127]

What an interesting adventure and so terrific that Kai can repair the Landy!

[@Thebluelandy]

Thank you, but it’s not a big deal to repair a Defender they are pretty easy, that’s why they are so famous in the Overlanding scene

[@buffalo4127]

Good choice though. Diesel fuel seems a bit hard to get … oddly diesel was once abundant throughout the world …consequently diesel and land rover were ubiquitous.

[@davegreenwood1663]

What an amazing adventure ,you guys are enjoying .Memories for a lifetime ,good,and bad.

[@Thebluelandy]

Hey Dave, yes we love what we’re doing and we’re glad we had the chance to do it

[@MOHAMED-ul8lk]

The time when you went to Jizan and Farasan is not suitable, because at this time the temperature is very high. And we locals go for Farasan in the winter😁😁.Enjoy your time🌷.

[@Thebluelandy]

Thank you, yes we realized it.😵 But we still wanted to see the island. Sadly we didn’t had the chance to go there later.

[@stevestott1514]

What a beautiful area thanks for sharing your wonderful journey with us. Cheers from Steve Stott in Sutherlin Oregon U.S.A. :):) 🍻👍🏼

[@Thebluelandy]

Hey Steve many thanks. Glad we can deliver and you like the videos!

[@johndiaz7240]

Best spot to camp by the water to bad no waves. Take care

[@Thebluelandy]

It was really isolated. No chance for waves 😭 it was the wrong time to be there. The water was 32°C so no really cooling down, just washing the sweat away. Still epic place, better in winter.

[@tariqal7187]

Great adventure. Nice videos.

[@Thebluelandy]

Thank you so much! Happy that you enjoy them! 🤗

[@mdsiraj-cu1jy]

Wow 😳😳

[@انا_ابراهيم_البناوي]

Still I'm in awe at how beautiful Abha Is and my family's village is in a place called Rijal Alma and it's been years since we went to it hopefully soon I can go back to it and I'm glad you enjoyed it and the Island of Farasan and I would love to know how did you enter Saudi Arabia with your car because I have an American Friend and a fellow youtuber his name is Casey Putsch and he wants to know how to bring his car to Saudi Arabia

[@Thebluelandy]

Hey Ibrahem, yeah it was a nice surprise to see all those places in Saudi, we didn’t know it’s so diverse! We entered Saudi though Kuwait by road, you need a “Carnet de Passage” which is customs document for the car, this allows a temporary import of the car with a foreign registration. To get the Carnet you need to contact the automotive club in your home country and have a deposit. That’s basically it, now you have your own car in Saudi… for him I would probably recommend to look into shipping the car in a Container either to Dubai or Jeddah cause this are big ports. And start the journey from there.

@@Thebluelandy Ok Thank you very much I knew about it but didn't know if it is the right thing Thanks and hope you have an amazing Journey and it's winter now so if you want you can go to the northern border of Saudi Arabia and see snow

[@Thebluelandy]

We're already in Jordan, so we'll miss out on that but there always a second chance. Thanks for letting us know

إيه مره محترمه. مو لابسه شيء من تحت.

[@christophersaul]

Al Sanidi is a dangerous place to visit! There’s so much stuff to buy that you never would have imagined you’d need 😂

[@Thebluelandy]

It is soooo dangerous. There are things for camping I never thought about. Actually,not only for camping, you can find everything for home as well 😱

[@christophersaul]

@@Thebluelandy Our Saudi office was behind a large branch in Riyadh. The temptation to return to Dubai with a snake catching tool, pistol holster and 12v shawarma roaster was always overwhelming. Keep up the great videos!

[@مجمجفوال]

Nice video.❤

[@Thebluelandy]

Thank you so much 😊

[@grahames9228]

Certainly found yourself a nice secluded spot by the water.

[@Thebluelandy]

That's as far as we understand the only way you can go swimming like that in KSA

[@imsteel6834]

When you said everything was abandoned I think because it was Friday and in Friday everything closes from 9am until 12:40 pm because of Friday prayer

[@Thebluelandy]

I think this was the case for some stores but at specially gas stations where most certainly abandoned in this area.

[@معتز-ت9ث]

[@hassanalbalushi5373]

Camel spider ..harmless|||

[@Thebluelandy]

Yeah!! They actually are there where scorpions are, so need to keep an eye around the car 👀

[@grahameroberts8109]

Have you considered mesh ‘hats’ to cover your face when besieged by insects?

[@Thebluelandy]

Yes, I was thinking about making one myself. Haven’t seen a place here where they sell them.

[@عبدالله-ن6ه2ص]

Didn't you read the law of public morals in clothes! So I don't like to see Western foreigners in Saudi Arabia I hope to issue a law to cancel visas as soon as possible. Whoever does not respect morals in Saudi Arabia, we will not respect him.

[@مجمجفوال]

ليش هم جالسين في بيتك؟ الأجانب مرحب فيهم والسياحه مصدر دخل للدوله وللمواطنين والسعوديه جالسه تبني مشاريع ضخمه سياحيه حركات وأسلوب التشدد شيلها من راسك.

[@mohd-obid]

If you are alone, do what you want, you are not responsible for others

[@Thebluelandy]

Thank you so much for your comment. We were alone, no one around in a lot of kilometers.

[@Thebluelandy]

شكرا جزيلا تعليقك

[@frank-lr]

Oh dear... Whenever men say "morale" or "honor" it usually ends in blood and tears... Western Europe was the same - we left it behind 50 years ago. The grumpy old men are gone now. Don't be afraid. Relax. Go buy some of these amazing glamping tents and enjoy the sun with all the family - that means men AND women, in a way BOTH feel comfortable and free.
