Why didn’t you buy food for this kind man who saved you from being robbed by the gangs? I could not sit down to eat knowing that I’m with someone and not offer food.

Every place has an area to avoid.. But Belize is safe and has many wonderful place to explore and enjoy...

I love Belize. ! Everyone was so kind to meet. I partied with the locals , house party’s , I felt like I belonged. I didn’t want to leave. I love ❤️ Belize.

Lmao he said follow me I’ll show u where the food is at. Whole time he’s just tryin to lead him out of the neighborhood

Being from a “bad neighborhood” in America..My advice to you is to listen more and sayless. You told on yourself when you made a statement about the gangs before the guy told you about them. He just you was heading to a bad neighborhood, but you informed him you knew about the area when you ask if that’s where the gangs where. That’s an imply that you knew what you were going into. That’s a easy way to find what you are looking for. Stay safe.

Feels nice to see you showing my block up here respect homie

I lived in Belize and we're buying property there. Every place can be dangerous, worldwide. Belize City is one of those places. But, it's no wonder, considering this is a developing country. But, don't let that deter you from seeing the rest of the country (minus Dangriga, same issues). It's lovely. I brought all three daughters and my mother. Check it out!

Glad that guy was there looking out for you and gave you a tour! Its scary going through bad areas I've been through bad areas in my home town in Upstate New York. Got robbed once trying to help a woman who said her car broke down. Another time I was driving to my college in New York and decided to take one of the bad areas just because it was quicker and I was late for a lectuer well luckly nothing happened to me except a guy shouted at me for driving too slow but I was nervous he might of had a gun... sooo I never drove through that area again!

Basically your tour guide was pretty much telling you to pay him as you owe him your life! Lol He kept telling you he saved you. 😂

To be honest Im a young Belizean Man and it's kind of a shame to see our older folks depicting solely the bad stuff and highlighting the bad people of this country to tours or visitors.

Up for dat 1k views biggup from belize city we deh ya 🇧🇿🇧🇿🇧🇿🙋🏻‍♂️😎💯🙏🏻

I was a serving soldier in Belize in the 70s it was always a little lawless in Mesopotamia, but none of the killings that are happening today, this is all thanks to the drugs that pass through Belize. A sad state of affairs, especially as most Belizean's are really friendly, like the guy who walked you out of there. Over all, Belize is still a safe place to visit, but like all countries, it has some bad areas. I have family who live in the area, and sadly, more than one of them have been murdered in recent times, all in their teens.

Great you gave back in the video at the end 💪

Nice video bud! There's way more to see and more to experience. Great semi tour around though

Yeah yeah! Your best video so far, its always good when theres a local introducing the area albeit this one was legit dangerous, keep it up and stay safe bro! 👊

Awesome video Brother , Thank you. God Bless you and stay safe.

Im from Orange walk (one of the 6 Districts in Belize) And my family avoids Belize city because of the crime rate but i have traveled through Belize and I can agree that the people are generous and respectable

So sad for Belize, my ex is Belizean. The country could have tourism by the balls being that English is spoken throughout the country. What a beautiful place.

Good job for showing us your trips. Very interesting that people choose not to go in a resort but instead venture out in the country they visiting.

I wonder if the guy from Finland considered the life of his “ tour guide”. He gets to leave but the Belize man lives there; pray for his safety. It seems the Finish dude didn’t get permission to record. I love Belize. ❤️☝🏽

This is filled with inaccuracies, 5-6 ppl don't die everyday yea there is a problem with gangs but its most often amongst themselves although mistaken identity and stray bullets sometimes kill innocent ppl. Next time just find someone local and knowledgeable. He over exaggerated alot. Belize is not as dangerous as he makes it seem.

He deserved a good tip, he was telling you some real shit

Thank you for doing this video Shameless little Viking.

That tour guide was really friendly. In general Belizeans are really nice to tourists. The violence is between the gangs not the local people. Belize has a lot of corruption and the economy only keeps on getting worst. We drove around Belize city including the south side in the morning time and it was ok. We did see some kids riding bikes throwing gang signs. Other than that, there was good fast food restaurants in the city and fresh tropical fruits.

That was very nice of the old man to take you around and tell you what streets to avoid .

You had a great tour and you’re extremely brave. I hope the tour guide is doing ok. 🙏🏾🇧🇿.

It's not as dangerous as before. You should have been on those streets in the 80's and early 90's. You wouldn't have reached that far up that street.

My grandfather used to have a house on George Street in Belize City that my family and I used to visit when I was much younger. I had no idea it was so bad at the time.

dude u so crazy it's hilarious! thanks for sharing your experience. heading to belize for the 3rd time, i love it so much, but I would NEVER go where u went lol! Your vid makes me love the people even more than I already do. Hope u at least bought the round, he saved your life :)

Man that’s some real good content..

I am not exaggerating what I'm saying you are incredibly lucky that man found... I cannot stretch that enough

Great great video !!!! Love that u paid him for his time 💗💗💗💗 great video !!!! So interesting

I applaud 👏 yall on doing stuff like this solo, I would love to visit my country but I always get a bad feeling I won't make it out. My biological older brother (i was adopted as a kid and moved to the states) just got shot and was only 34. Only 2 of the boys out the whole family made it out the country sheesh

I’m from Belize too certain areas is dangerous but overall everybody is cool af plus everything is cheap make sure who ever see this go to the Chinese restaurant and get a Fry Chicken with fries or rice I bet you won’t regret it 🇧🇿 💯

This vedio is the reason why people turist think the worst of us. Me and my 2 brothers and sister walked there all our life. Trust me it's not all that. You mind uour own busnies and you can walk almost anywhere in this country. It's for the views though right. #Bless

Thank you for making this. I may go to Belize City in January, and I am an 18-year old American (it's for a college group). I want to make sure I don't go in the wrong area because I personally like exploring my surroundings.

Reminds me of Kenya. Lots of people there want to be your "friend." But that can be dangerous or even fatal, especially when someone wants to take you somewhere regardless if it's a man or woman (they often work in teams and will spike your drink or the bartender can for a cut of the proceeds). Kidnapping and killing of foreign tourists is all to common. It's very easy to lose your life over the perceived idea that you are a "rich" foreigner even though you may have very little. Best bet is to stay out of areas like this, especially at night (very foolish).

The thing is Belize does have a problem with gangs especially in that area; i.e. it's where i live...but not so much murder's. Belize is not as dangerous as he makes it seem.People just do your research and maybe find someone who will actually tell the truth and be more accurate.

Wow ohh mien This is sad to look at being a belizean growing up in Belize places looks so different

Dope dude! I was too chicken to go beyond the bus station. Where did you take that pic in the header of your channel? Where you stand on a railway bridge.

It’s such a shame that the locals would exaggerate certain things. Not saying that it’s not a hot zone but I used to walk that very street every single day to go catch the city bus to go to school and not once have I felt unsafe or been robbed or bothered. And the subtitle in the beginning is wrong. That young man did not say he was going to do coke. He said “I am going up here to the laundry to do clothes.” Evidenced by the laundromat shown less than 2 minutes later

See in the videos even the gang members spoke to him and made sure he was safe. We love people they just have their gang issues

You warned not to go but you went, am glad you found that man because you literally walking into the lions den with no exfil option.

Dope video!

$100 a week? Cow foot soup was a great choice😋. Didn’t care for choice words. Thanks for an updated vlog on KZfaq and keeping people aware.

I'm tired of people saying it has one of the highest murder rates, ofc it will, to make the rate you need to use the average population. The population in Belize hasn't even passed half a million so ofc it will sound higher, I'm pretty sure America has more deaths and murders per week than Belize but because of America's population size it looks like a small murder rate, for instance; 1/2 = 50%. While 5/15 = 33.3%, do you see what I'm saying? It's not as bad as people say it is.

After the Finnegan market you should have tried the best and cheapest fry chicken in Belize kickdown fence fry chicken. I live in Belmopan but when I go to the city trust me I must get my kickdown fence chicken

You deserve more subs and views I been following u from Facebook I will sub help you along, stay safe tho don’t do anything stupid pal 👍

Thank you for visiting my country. It’s not all that bad everywhere has crime. There’s still numerous beautiful places to visit here in Belize and we’re very friendly people.

Subscribed. Thank you

personally i live in belize and yes there are some dangerous places but it is usually safe and a beautiful country

I hope you compensated that man for not only looking out for you, but giving you a good tour.

Tip : dont flash your money in public like that

Stay safe out there brother

So many of these KZfaqrs are incredibly naíve to do things like this, líve in those areas and you’d have a lot more respect for how dangerøus they really are. By the time these KZfaqrs figure that out they will be in the hospital (or cemetery).

This is that bloke's hustle - anyone who reminds you 50 times that he 'saved' you from certain death is working an angle...I get it, everyone needs a hustle. Clearly a tough area, clearly dangerous, but I am always extremely wary of strangers bearing unsolicited gifts and/or assistance...even in so called 'good areas'...as in prison, as in life - if it's offered immediately upon meeting you, it sure ain't free and you probably don't need it.

I was in Belize city over 10nyears ago, I also ventured into the city, it sort of remind me of what LA Ceiba Honduras used to look back in The early 80's, shame they took on the US street gang culture as the rest of Central America, love their food and Belkin of course.

They even got bloods chrips in Belize smh 🤦‍♀️ wow that’s crazy

How was your soup. And I never ask people where to go or where not to go in Belize city but you do a good job.

@7:54 you need to fix your translation he did not say he going to do coke he said he is going to laundry some clothes smh.

BELIZE is a beautiful country. We aren't perfect. Yes we have bad/criminal elements. But as long as you avoid walking alone on these poverty stricken areas you should enjoy your stay here. The violence Usually tends to stay within their own gang circles ..rarely it spills over into our more peaceful communities.

Nice to see different neighborhoods…Gangsters street ..

Every area has certain streets you need to avoid as a tourist and citizen. For this guy to be Tour Guide he's very unprofessional and negative. It's ok to be filled in with information to ascertain one's safety but not in the way he did. Belize is a beautiful country and there is a lot of exploring to do my friend. Visit the country on the weekdays where it'll be more populated. And next time, try taking a tour with someone who has a valid tour guide license and has more knowledge. You can find one at the Fort Street Tourist Village. Hope to see another video of Belize soon.

I hope thean giving the tour is safe and you not only got information but reached out to him to help his face is on camera he will have to go back to those neighbourhood and you will fly home.

Nice video well done Stay safe and God bless you all.🙏.

Always talk to a old guy in Belize because there a old timer they know the people from the gangs since kids and they see you with them you ain't finna get messed with and there's a very small chance there in a gang but always say your with someone or going to someone just in case

Viking dude stay safe ok 👍. You in dem gritty streets of Belize. Hopefully that good brotha will protect you in the hood. Watch your vlog from Europe.

U lucky u meet that guy . U would have been robbed ! But Welcome to Belize tho

The og is a life saver bro

Your looking in the inside, in the outside its a beautiful place with many to explore. I am from Belize, wheather its dangerous or no, it is still my home

Ok Ok thank you for that but to all the viewers, please do your own research. Every-time I see these sort of vlog of my country 'THE BAD SIDE' you always have some sort of guide hustler that will tell you exactly what you want to hear because you told them that you are looking for the bad side or the bad and dangerous part of my country. They won't disappoint because if they do, it will be no pay day. When I go to abroad, I as a tourist, will not venture in known criminal areas, and this is all over the world. What is not said is that very very rear the criminal elements reach out to tourist, i'm not saying it doesn't but Im saying it is very rear and really before you come you would book and information will be given. Also, these criminal elements in the bad area is isolated amounts themselves and their little hoods. Thanks again and I will shear this story with the Tourist Board.

Next time you decide to exploit a poor black man and compromise his safety for the purpose of views and likes, at least buy him some food whenever you eating ok sir. It's highly unethical and doesn't reflect you in the correct light !!!

Did you shoot this on a DJI Pocket 2?

Just got back from a lovely trip to San Pedro. Found the people were friendly and helpful. The food was awesome but expensive. Only got scammed buying gas at the gas station near the airport refilling our golf cart. Would return again.

I grew up in Belize I drove delivery truck there for a while seems like most parts are safe as long as you don't mess with wrong people

Belize is not Dangerous as Depicted. Everywhere has its share of Rif Raffs. Belize is in the Heart of central America, has many Beautiful Natural resources, highly educated and well informed people and planned tours for all, Murderation and danger is very much exaggerated with the old dude as he was making the videographer feel the need to TIP him.

This is a black eye for our country, but once you ain't caught up in shit I don't see you being in danger. ✊🏼

BELIZE is not a dangerous is like any other country who have areas and individuals who willing to take advantage of others. Nevertheless you will encounter and have people who are humble kind and caring and willing to share our culture and life style to anyone who coming to visit our lovely country which is majority. If you in the west side of the country san ignacio willing to show u around the villages outskirt of the town. Bless keep enjoying beautiful belize.

When I go around these places there usually quit and no noise

Viking is just another word for pirate, so basically the OG in Belize was giving the pirate a tour 🤣

All the people saying it was bad were manifesting negativity to that area, life is what you project, I’ve lived in the most inhospitable places in Africa and it was perfectly fine, I felt more safe than I do in the “safest” parts of London, the real criminals live in millionaire mansions.

dude was giving up wayyyyyyy tooo much information and speaking on things he dont know about. he better be carefull that the govt he speaking about so carelessly dont make him disappear . ijs

My grandpa was born Guatemala then moved to Belize he said it was nothing like this when he was younger.

i lived in santo domingo ,DR for 25 years.....there are some danger places

If you're visitin Roatan I would recomend you look up LETS GO ROATAN Tours, experienced tour operator, has lived in Roatan since 1993 and seeing cruise ships since 1995 - Let's Go Roatan

i wish you would have asked him, what kind of industry he was in or would like to be in .. also what would it take for the gangs to switch to another legit industry. .in other words, if they sleft to the the US, what kind of work (or education) would he want to get into? what kind of skills/education is needed in Belize. .in the city and inland?

I am 15 years old I always walk that area every morning for school

My Uncle was murdered in our family home on West street by gangsters; about 10 years ago. He was "well respected" in the neighborhood. Everyone knew our family in Belize City. Another time, they held up my other uncle at gun point when he was in a restaurant buying food. Thankfully they didn't shoot him. I don't go there anymore to visit and I don't plan on it. It's just not worth it.

Am i the only belizean watching this guy vids?

If drinking game was take a sip every time he says “yeah,yeah’ everyone would be puking 😂

I love my country bro❤️. From Hattieville and grow in Belize City and living in London now still Wouldn’t past Majestic tho🤣

Not sure how many 🤔 times or ways you need to be told that its a bad area. Literally the first thing they say to this guy.

My old Neighborhood, since it’s home I honestly would feel safe but obv using my discretion like in any bad area in the world

Wow, shocking

I was planning on visiting Belize next year but I dont know after watching this. well... I will stay out of Belize City for sure. I want to go to Hopkins Beach

These traveling KZfaqrs will learn one day

Yea very beautiful and cheap for all the tourist but thank God the locals are still getting by God bless

I was enjoying the blue color of the sky... beautiful... sadly the video is about the dangerous neighborhood... do you really need to go there to explore gangs streets?... I would love to visit Finland to enjoy safety....

My plan is to relocate to Belize and start some business ventures there. My concern is safety. Can Belize be more dangerous than my country, South Africa???

Nice vlog great info. -we are Niki and raj
