Glad you liked it!

Whhoooahh! Hold it right there! You make us out to be some sort of imbecilic cartoon villains! Smug expressions on our faces as we showed the bullet-ridden buildings? I don't think so.

Anyway, despite what seems to be the reaction on here, I did enjoy Lebanon. I thought it was great and the people were exceptionally friendly.

Beirut is a very diverse city & is not suitable 4 poor people like u, therefore this is all what u can see. I think the main reason 4 visiting Beirut was because u both were offered a cheap ticket by Flydubai otherwise book a room in Mövenpick hotel & see the difference by yourself. Beirut is a place to spend money & discover whats hidden inside it & you will be amazed thats the beauty in it. We r suffering a big problem in transportation & highly taxed cars 200% thats a fact u only focused on.

Plan your trips better next time to get the most out of the places you visit. You had a chance to be in one of the most exciting cities in the world and from what i have seen you missed out on all that made the New York times name Beirut THE top travel destination in the world for 2009(Google it). I live in New York and have been to Beirut 3 times since that article came out and no i am not Lebanese.

i think u guys have been unfair with showing the viewers Beirut.. Beirut's a city that has witnessed wars and crises that london has never witnessed and probably never will.. Beirut isnt paris of the east, no.. its PEARL OF THE EAST.. u saw for urself the mix of cultures and religions, the old and new, the rich and poor.. its a city being rapidly re-constructed and developed and we've made big names. Lebanon is so much more beautiful than "england" and next time u wana make a video, do it good

@SuperVerica You're right. Generalizing is wrong and unfair, but the Brits are definitely not the best travellers around.

A bit of a condescending video if you ask me. And how silly it is to point out at war-damaged buildings with a "Paris of The Middle East" introduction...I really hope you're not one of those who only focuses on the negative when abroad; if you are, please stay home, where it's nicer.
