I Explored Saudi Arabia's Hidden Summer Getaway 🇸🇦 Aseer (عسير)

Everyone thought I was INSANE to visit Saudi Arabia in the middle of summer. But they didn't know about the Aseer region: A hidden part of Saudi Arabia high up in the mountains, where it's cooler than most European countries in the summer time. Join me on a 4-day journey in Aseer to discover why people from Dubai, Riyadh, and Kuwait are choosing to vacation here instead of Europe right now. We'll try the local food, visit a strawberry farm, the trending "Honey Cottage", 900 year-old fortressed villages, hike the highest peak in Saudi Arabia (Jabal Sawda), and do a little glamping. 0:00 Intro 1:03 Abha - The Capital of Aseer (أبها) 1:38 Trying Traditional Aseer Cuisine at The Chef's Kitchen (مطعم باب التراث) 4:42 High City Abha (المدينة العالية) 6:11 Cable Car (التلفريك) 7:20 Day 2 7:38 Saudi Hotel 10:13 Convenience Store 12:12 Hiking the Highest Peak in Saudi Arabia (Jabal Sawda) 14:01 Monkey Attack 17:13 Trying Local Fruit 21:09 Strawberry Farm 25:36 Dangerous Mountain Roads 26:34 The Honey Cottage (كوخ العسل) 29:24 900 Year-Old Fortressed Village - Rijal Almaa 31:28 Day 3 34:47 Kayaking in an Alpine Lake 36:35 Day 4 36:48 Glamping in the Saudi Arabian Mountains 41:32 Andalusian Palace
