Doha looks incredible! Love the blend of modern architecture and rich culture 🇶🇦✨ Can’t wait to see more of your journey in Qatar’s stunning capital! 🏙️🌟

[@cosmo-q4596]

Fun Fact : During the 2022 world cup , Qatar didnt have enough hotels to host everyone , so they had fan villages in more than one place just like anyother city hosting the world cup , but also they had cruise ships anchored around to host people for a month.. Qatar definetly had one of the best Football World Cups..people loved it there.

[@johnaguirre9079]

Some would even fly post-match to their hotels in the UAE or Saudi

[@mateor7302]

Nice video Gabe about Doha and seems worth a short stopover. Also I subbed to Nora's channel which is loaded with practical travel tips geared towards slow traveling nomads

[@JelloShots-wg6tz]

Been there a few times. A generic country with no authentic culture or experience. A Burger King on one corner, a Zara on another. Work done by 1.5 million migrants, while citizens chill somewhere in AC rooms. I can only compare it to Jabba the Hutt's palace. After this, I went to Azerbaijan which was far more authentic. I agree Riyadh is stifling- but Jeddah is a beautiful and a more vibrant city.

[@barry4848]

I am familiar with Nora's content. Well spoken, informative and a lot of fun. I travelled to Doha 4 years ago. Stayed 4 nights...one night too many. National Museum of Qatar was definitely the highlight! Happy travels to both of my favorite travellers!

[@dave.wendy.wander]

Really cool video - never been there or seen much about it. Nice to see Nora, as well, as she's been on a break from content creation.

Nora, You see how Candians are so happy sweet open conversation! Thanks Gabriel! Doha much attractive than Riyadh!

Hi Gabriel, nice to see a fellow traveler. There is so much to talk about and Nora is going to a beautiful place in Tanzania and possibly going to see Serengeti National Park as well as the neighboring parks and hiking up Mt. Kilimanjaro.

Looks really interesting, and I loved your companion!

[@swordsman3951]

Gabriel, hope you consider going to NZ, videos from there would be definitely interesting.

[@travelingkakabsat]

I agree on your thoughts of this country, in comparison to Saudi Arabia. So much more visually pleasant and personality!

Hey Gabe, big fan. The middle east is the one part of the world I am going to emphasize for traveling the next few years. I’m going to check out your friend’s channel, but she is a phone clutcher. I avoid phone clutchers, but I’ll give her a chance. Thanks for your content.

That was a really cool meet up. Your buddy bubbles nicely. She reminds me of Ichy Boots in the levity and enthusiasm of her manner. I'll check out her channel. See ya in India... again! LOL

[@MichaelKilby]

Maybe the best video you’ve ever produced. Great insights. Well done. Thank you. Next time I go to Doha two days. Also Tanzania is amazing!

[@swordsman3951]

True, Qatar looks much nicer and more modern than Saudi Arabia.

He didn't go to any place in Riyadh, except the to old Riyadh. Even though it's Riyadh Season right now and even Qataries and Emiraties are visiting Riyadh during Riyadh Season.

[@LJ-jq8og]

These big-money Saudi-like places seem way too "sterile" to me ⁉ Grew up next to NYC so high-rise buildings, no matter how new, turn me off ! Also expensive restaurants and bars are rip-offs so I no longer care about that BS either ! WHY ⁉ would I spend a fortune to go there ⁉

There is something weird about these cities. Like they are somehow made by a kid playing Simcity an just plopped down whatever looks cool instead of just a natural result of economic or social necessity. I wonder what percentage of all those towers is actually occupied.

Its a artificial city not generic. its very calm & peaceful. Very high standard of living if you have a few million dollars.

[@jalalal-haddad7414]

Welcome Nora to your beautiful channel In fact, I would like to comment on some of the comparisons made between Riyadh and Qatar in terms of urbanization and civilization between the two countries. In fact, the comparison is correct at this level, but the difference is in terms of terrain from rocky mountains, valleys and wildlife in addition to beautiful and virgin coasts that are not trodden by tourism yet. It just needs cars to move around in that vast desert environment, of course, and it might be expensive for many.

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Very true, Saudi Arabia is much larger so a lot more to explore.
