LOST in Sudan's Largest Street Market 🇸🇩 / Souq Omdurman
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 чер 2022
- Welcome to the true hustle and bustle! Today, I am going alone to the largest market in Sudan and one of the largest in Africa, Souq Omdurman.
Located on the Omdurman side of the Nile, across from Khartoum, this souq or market has thousands of vendors from food and clothes to tools, books and jewelry.
The smells, the people everywhere, the dunkies and of course the tuktuks, this market was pure chaos and I loved every single minute of it. Even thought is was HOT!!!

In case you've missed my first Sudan video! 🇸🇩➡️ ua-cam.com/video/BTAXY03zgAY/v-deo.html
Thanks for sharing 💙
Enjoying your videos here in Seattle WA. Thanks for sharing.
Are you going to the Historical sites in Sudan? Also are you going to visit Sudan National Museum? It has ancient Meroe, ancient Egyptian, and Christian period of Sudan in that museum. The museum is located on Nile Street. I hope you see it
It must be nice to travel across africa with no problem as a white man and face no racism. Could you imagine what would happen to an African traveling across Canada or Europe, you know the answer. By the way not all countries in Africa has garbage all over the streets, some of them are among the cleanest in the world
@@taharka3897 He knows that already, since he lives in Kenya and travelled to places like Rwanda i believe. Also why do you bring "race" or color into the discussion, when it is not necessary.
Hi, am winnie from kenya but I live in Sudan. it's so exciting to see you here. It's true the Sudannene people are the most friendly people I have ever met. Enjoy the rest of your stay .
Thats awesome Winnie! I had the best time there! 🇸🇩❤️
Hi Winnie
Have a good resistance in Khartoum
Kenyan people are welcome.
Am working in aumdurman big market in home stuff
@@DaveMani Hi man I noticed that
You didn't keep filming when you arrived to Khartoum Airport frome the bus to the car out side
🤣
Thank you kindly-you are most welcome to your second home 🤗🤗
Thanks bro 💐
Sudanese is the friendly people and welcoming every human being doesn't matter where you coming from .long live Sudan 🇸🇩 . greetings from somalia🇸🇴
💚🇸🇩
❤❤
That is true :)
I'm from Eritrea and sudan people are the nicest people in the world in my experience love to sudan from Eritrea 🇪🇷
I love watching videos that dispel the western myth that we should fear people of other countries. I have travelled to Kenya twice this year, and I am now looking forward to seeing more of the friendly people of Africa.
African is wonderful and has so much to offer! :)
I'm org from Somalia but grew up In EUR ( Denmark ) I deffo agree with your statement...I'm also traveling back to Africa the 5 times and perhaps we can be travel buddies in the future :)
The west is living in it's own bubble. Buy thanks to people like you and dave, they get to know they're wrong. Or hopefully they do😏
Glad you enjoyed your trip to Khartoum, Sudan. I’m originally from Eritrea 🇪🇷, but I lived in Khartoum for 2 years and I have now been living in Canada for 5+ years.
I hope you like Canada! 🇨🇦
I worked with the Red Cross in Sudan in the mid 80's and met a lot of Eritrean refugees in Khartoum and now migrated in Canada. I am Filipino and now living here in the US. I miss Sudan...been to Port Sudan, Kassala, Darfur where the refugee camps were.
Sudan and the Sudanese are the most kind people in the world. I lived for 5years in Khartoum. Greeting you from Australia. Your sister from Tigray
Thanks
Greetings to you, my second daughter
I totally agree! I lived in Sudan for many years, I miss my Sudanese brother and sisters, most warm, kind and friendly people. Sudanese people are the best! nobody can match their hospitality. They are Humane!!!
Tigray is not a country for all I know! but you delusional confused lost souls who had been brainwashed by TPLF terrorist junta, they made you think Tigray is a country! haha you are Ethiopian and you will always be Ethiopian! so when someone ask you where you are from you just have to get use to saying you are from Ethiopia! guhaff Agame
Yeah but they stare and talk behing people’s back a LOT 💀 Like they could be nice with you and when you go away they could be talking bad about you for literally no reason
Thank you for all the positive thoughts and things you said about our country. Welcome to Sudan ❤️
Thank you so so much.
The popsticle thingy is called "Darduma" and I'm glad you liked it, it's like our icecream here lol. The heat? Dudde you came on the cooler days if you came in April you would have evapourated🤣
if you got sometime come to Madani Aljezira state next time, it's about three hours away from Khartoum, there's a nice museum made from the home of 1940 British comissioner called "The house of Bokasa" you can check it out and i can take you on a small tour through the most boring city on earth.
والله بالجد فايقة هههههه
"Subtle art of marketing"
Good one but i bet he would choose dongola over aljazeera hehe
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣دة شلب عدييييل
That popsicle what the highlight if my day! Haha it was so hot. 🔥🔥🔥
😂😂😂😂اسطحبيني انا ولا عشان ما خواجي
Smiling watching this ! Extremely happy to see someone have this massive positive impact about my home and the people !!!
Can’t wait for the next pyramid vid !
Have a blast !
Thank you so so much! I'm finishing up the pyramid video right now :)
Who else wants to see more of. Sudan? We dont get to see much about that country.
🇸🇩🇸🇩🇸🇩🇸🇩
👇
Im just so happy that I was able to share a little bit of it. 🇸🇩
Thank you for visiting my country even though it barely gets any tourists!
Sudan has a lot to offer and I truly hope more people come and visit! 🇸🇩🇸🇩🇸🇩
Hi Dave I'm Rameez a Kenyan from nbo south c area and I lived in Khartoum for 10 years upto 2018 when the revolution started and things started getting bad. I sadly had to leave but Sudan is a very safe and friendly country I've ever experienced. Please do visit the souk shabi it's much much better organised and souk markazi in downtown where there is another newer mall then the afra mall u went to and its nicer. And also go to the green yard which just opposite the street from afra mall u would enjoy and try going out at night bcoz that's the time many Sudanese ppl go out coz of the less heat and Khartoum has a night life culture which u will definitely enjoy!
This is awesome! Thanks a lot. I will make sure to check those places out when I visit next.
That was awesome. The hospitality and kindness of the Sudanese people made it easier for me to stay there when I lived there. This has been a very good video thanks.
They are for sure amazing people! :)
Hey man
I’m a Sudanese man, currently living in the UK, but I still go back home twice a year.
It’s an amazing thing to see you in Omdurman souq, that’s where I used to get the bus going to university in Khartoum every day, as I lived in Omdurman.
I’m even more excited about you getting see the extreme kindness of Sudanese people, first hand.
Keep up the amazing work bro
Ps I just subscribed 👍
Welcome onboard my friend! :) I had such a good time in Sudan :)
Hello. I live in New York. I would love to visit Sudan. I love to travel may be when you go to Sudan. Let me know I can meet you there. Thank you
The situation in Sudan is very sad, dirt and traffic and its situation is miserable. Welcome to Sudan and we wish you a safe journey
I wish Sudan 🇸🇩 all the best!
You are welcome.
Yes, it’s because bad politicians and the ex president (who was the president for 30 whole years) were so bad they would kill people for money and get all the money to themselves and not to the country, so people had to build the country themselves but it’s really hard considering Sudan is the biggest country in Africa & they don’t get paid thay much because of the ex president. Hope the new president of my country will do something about it ! Because it’s been like that ever since my mom was born :/
@@-.no.
Sudan is the 3rd largest Country in Africa
@@thephoenix756 yeah, they used to be the biggest in 2010 before what happened
One thing Africa is known for is lots of smiles 😎....Thanks for sharing 💙
Agreed! 😁😁😁
@@DaveMani 👌🏼🤣
Hi from Sudanese/ Canadian guy from Ottawa Ontario. Thank you for the great video and kind words about Sudanese people
Thank you for watching my friend! :)
Welcome to Sudan brother, thanks for being positive despite the known difficulties
From Kenya With lots of love!!! Gonna visit Sudan one day in the future
Thats great! :)
Thank you Dave for sharing the true story of my people and country, we are great nation but bad politician stopped our country growing. we are determined to change that and make Sudan one of best places to visit, thanks again from Sudanese in UK.
I grew up in Omdurman, and I don’t recall animals in the Souq 😭 I think it’s miscommunication. The month of June is definitely the hottest in Sudan🔥 people there are wholesome which what I miss the most living overseas . Thank you for showing this side of Sudan ❤️😊
Fun fact: Omdurman used to be the capital of Sudan….. a long time ago!
في سوق اسمو سوق الطيور موجود في سوق أمدرمان
Many people wrote me about them and I actually saw them too in someone else's video. I guess they are just very hard to find! haha
Thank u a lot bro!!!, for being part of us, for a while, as a Sudanese people. You were filming very well, a lot of Sudan features will be clear by ur efforts!!
I'm really happy because I saw my country and I'm also happy because you conveyed to us the positive side, which is the kindness of people in Sudan. I love you #Sudanian
I had a very different picture of how Sudan and sudanness people operate but it turns out they are so kind,friendly and also like being on camera you know thats makes me happy...Thanks man for the exposure 🤝🥂
This as one of the most fun day of filming I had for sure :)
@@DaveMani it creates the best environment for one to Shoot content.
Let's me guess are you Kenyan?
@@user-lz5dz1qx2q Yes I am
Welcome to sudan❤️ thank you for your visiting
Thank you Osama :)
Hello Dave, thank you for your visit to our dear country Sudan. We are grateful to you for your tour and for introducing you to one of the country’s landmarks, the Omdurman market. We wish you other beautiful visits and thank you my friend 🇨🇦🇸🇩
You have honored us with your visit to Sudan. You are always welcome and thank you very much 🇸🇩❤❤❤❤❤❤😊
At least you are high spirited at the market despite the chaotic conditions.
I loved it :)
I am new to your Channel
Just be careful
Do enjoyed
I am from Sudan, thank you for coming to our beautiful country, and I hope you had a great time♥️♥️🇸🇩
It was a real pleasure ;)
@@DaveManiI appreciate that💙
Miss this market, so many good memories here
It so cool!
Its soo exciting that someone is touring the country where I live in thankyou for visiting it
Hello Dave ! Thank you so much for visiting us, we are so happy for it , I really appreciate it, I love your videos about Sudan 🇸🇩 , if you still in Sudan I wanna meet you to show you how exactly Sudan looks like, and thank you again, I hope you reply me back
Thank you so much for watching! :) I hope to come back soon. :)
I’m heading over to Sudan in a little under a week! I’m half Sudanese but I’ve never visited the country (or met most of the family that still lives there) but because we had some extra time this summer my dad finally decided to show me his homeland!! I’m super excited and have been binging UA-cam videos to prepare for the trip ^^
Lol me too! Half Sudanese but never visited I’m going next month :)
@@poisonedkiwi4730 OMGGG did you enjoy it??? It was probably not the best because of the current political situation…
@@Ayat_Ali sadly I didn't things got in the way and i could find the time to visit :( but hopefully I'll be able to go before this year ends 😁
@@poisonedkiwi4730 I hope you do!!! I haven’t been to Sudan since I was 9 (so in 2016)
Hi Dave
It’s great to see you in Sudan 🇸🇩
Enjoy your stay
I had a great time :)
Thank you soo much for visiting sudan ......we love you Dave😊♥️♥️ I hope you come back again
I loved every minute of it! :)
Dave alone roaming in a market in Sudan.its the positivity for me😍
Thank you Vickie ❤️👍🏼
Welcome to Sudan, I am happy to see you while you are in Sudan, despite the conditions that Sudan is going through, but the people are good😍
Cheers my friend.
Oh hi Dave and u r always welcome over here, I am sad of that we still don't have that system of reducing the garbage but also I love the part of don't let that stop from coming because the people and experience worse it
I am glad that u have been able to see the good in every situation, and also glad that u may decide to visit here again I hope that to get more gorgeous experience & I am ready be ur guide for that experience if u you'd like that
Thanks for all ur positive thoughts 😊😊😊😊
amazing videos buddy, I'm glad you loved the motherland, much love from Toronto....
❤🌹✨I loved it so much and I'm even more proud of my country
Sudan is full of amazing people :)
I am so happy that you are enjoying Sudan. I agree with you Sudanese people are one of the nicest in the world! Sudan should be a popular tourist destination. 🇸🇩❤️
This is the one things I'll remember forever! The people.
That hospitality only extends to foreigners; Sudanese from certain regions were subject to aerial bombardment, artillery barrages and raids by Arab militias that would behead people and burn people alive.
Literally 2.5 million people died in South Sudan during the civil wars; and 300k died in Darfur. That's almost 3 million souls that died because the elite of these supposedly kind people just had to steal lands from non-Arab tribes.
This kind narrative rings hollow
Awesome showing us Sudan I really enjoyed it amazing 💕
Thanks ;)
It's nice to see how you excited to explore our country 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤❤ ,
Some part's had me laughing 😂😂😂
Amazing video
Glad you think so!
I love these type of videos 🫠🫠
I had so much fun filming it :)
This was awesome. Thanks for your content. I enjoy following your travels and getting to experience places I may never go
Thank you so much James :)
Hi , I am very happy to have you visit us in my country Sudan 🇸🇩♡ I hope you enjoyed those good moments, thank you .
Please Dave next time you should go to Rwanda after Sudan. It's an east African country that's doing well in terms of development and also the cleanest country in Africa. Many people would like to see that nation please.
I know all about Rwanda. :) The issue is I work haha so I always have very limited time.
@@DaveMani ok. Thanks
@@DaveMani Rwanda should be your next place to be
Sudan is a gorgeous country 💙💙
It is :)
Our country Sudan 🇸🇩is beautiful, but I see corruption dirt and filth everywhere, and this only happens when dictators and corrupt rule😔😔😔
Thanks for sharing this amazing video for Sudan . I love it .
It was a true pleasure.
Subscribed already to your channel, now iam watching rest of Sudan video's
It looks like you had a great time. Thank you for showing one of the markets. Fun place to get souvenirs when you’re safe!
I had a great time there :)
I think most of them r Muslims there ✅️
Wow people of Sudan are so friendly and warm.
They really are :)
I just like how positive you are... this is when you know Kenya is the equivalent of Quebec/Halifax...the hub of east africa,,,cant wait for the afghan /kuwait military story
Thanks for that! :)
kiherehere tu!
Hi, I cannot explain how it is a great feeling when you are just watching youtube videos randomly, and suddenly you saw a video about your home country Sudan and not just that EXACTLY Omdurman market, the place you grew up in it. I lived in suk Omdurman for about 13 years since I was 6, and unfortunately, I got to travel to study. I want to say thank you because you really brought back to me very nice memories, you actually filmed my home street, my school, and the roods I used to play in it which made me cry. THANK you a LOT Dave Mani for this video I hope you come again, and if I were there I will take you to the animal section in the market. I feel so sad you didn't see the colorful birds and the monkeys. There are other WONDERFUL places to see all over Sudan and it is my pleasure to give you information about some of them. All the best and keep doing videos
Thank you so much for your kind comment! I had the best time in Sudan and hope to go back and visit Port Sudan!
What an amazing discovery your channel!!! I deeply admire how brave you are!
Thank you so much! :)
The guy who told you to go straight was not totally wrong, the animal section is right next to where you were standing, I think maybe he pointed to the wrong side street. Also it looks like you missed the antique section which is very interesting.
Fair enough... Maybe he didn't understand me properly. I wish I could speak Arabic haha
Lol I felt like I wanna be inside the vid for a sec and tell him to go right and left lol 😆
@@nosamekki2344 lol! Me too! But the market is a maze, it’s easy to get lost
@@DaveMani if life brings you back there in the future I hope you get the opportunity to see it :)
It’s seems like Dave’s trek across the Sahara is underway. If there is anyone up to this task, it’s is him. Good luck!!
That would be the coolest challenge ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I loved the way u talk about my country everything was real and you are amazing guy
Loved getting to see the market and and all the friendly people. Wow 🤩 getting to see the Nile!! How amazing!!
It was super cool! 😬😬😬
Muslim countries seem to have the nicest and most hospitable people it seems.
I would agree with that!
🤍 We honour our guests visiting us in any land!
I actually can relate to the you were lost there..
I'm from Sudan and I get lost every time I look for the animals section in Omdurman market it's a big place 😅
loll It is such a large market!
Hi Dave, I am from Omdurman. I liked the video very much 😍 . Thank you for visiting Sudan. I will always follow your channel
Thank youDavid for reflecting a beautiful picture of Sudan 🌹I love you
Cheers :)
Sudan my country, apart from bad governance, it's a place where friendliness and kind hearts reign in unforgiving environment. someday I'm coming back to bring the royal glories back. And my Sudanese people at 4:00 - 4:11 is kinda funny how my brother was giving directions 😂😂
The Sudanese were just so good to me :)
@@DaveMani I’m glad. People like you, are the real heroes, you venture beyond the limits and change the stereotype narratives. Someday visit the states of South Kordofan, experience the diverse culture there and get to tell their stories.
If this was Kenya, that money in your pocket would have been snatched especially in Nairobi. Also, who says no to 'you can keep the change' definitely not Kenyans
Nonsense!!
I think you are a bit harsh haha. I understand that there is a lot of criminality in Nairobi but it's important not to generalize either. :)
why are you negative about Kenya. Pthooo
@@esem135 exactly! watu wa viherere always negatively painting their own
Hello brother i love all your videos.. am Sudanese and am currently working overseas in ksa .. but i wish i was there in Sudan when you where the cuz i wanted to be you guide .. and many thanks for saying those kind words about us .. really Sudanese people are so kind and amazing.. i wish you had a beautiful stay in our country.. but next time when you come you will be under my invitation and i will show you the real hospitality of Sudanese 🥰😍😄

Very true!
Thanks for sharing your visit to my country, am advising for other coming visters to arrange with any one of local volunteers to guide them bcz khartoum is so big and easly to be lost. There is amazing natural places in south kordufan and blue nile states there are many mountains , rivers, forsets and animal which will make you enjoy more and more with your visit to Sudan. Welcome with all of you from any part of planet.
Welcome to sudan 🇸🇩✌️♥️
7:43 my uncle his hand befind he's back always like that and one incredible thing abt sudanese ppl that they love different ppl like if u came from another country if u have some friends or family members they will greet u as nice as possible lots of ppl make fun of sudan bc its soo dirty and bc they dont understand English but trust me that's just from the outside of them u didn't see the inside of them SUPER nice and too friendly our world may be dirty but we aren't we are amazing thanks for ur time from Sudan🇸🇩❤❤
Welcome to Sudan... We wish you good days in Sudan
