Afghanistan was once a firm fixture on the backpacker trail, but decades of war and violence have crossed it off the destination list for almost all tourists. Most governments advise against travel there.
But American blogger Drew Binksy is one traveller bucking the trend.
He says he has a coronavirus test before travelling to new countries, and follows local measures in the places he visits.
Video produced by the BBC’s Suhrab Sirat and Kawoon Khamoosh

The media is the biggest source of cancer in the world
Wow!! I'm one of his subscribers since a long
HOMEBOY DREW MADE IT TO BBC NEWS AHHHH
omfg-
Lived there 2 years. Afghanistan is kinda safe to visit for a few days. Unsafe to live in. Each week you spend there increases likelihood something bad will happen to you. I consider myself lucky to have made it out alive. Had quite a number of close calls. And "close calls" in Afghanistan means things like "suicide commando attacking your building".
this guy is amazing
Uzbekistan. Shakhrisabz. Tamerlane's palace Aksaray today and versions in the past. paworld.info/face/v/maqXsGe5uLCKsLA
DEFUND the bbc stand against terrorism and there sympathizers!!!
Thought it was another episode of Drew's journey, but BBC ?!
BBC stop 😂 using this video 😝 hello 👋 Drew
:D
Afghanistan look very beautiful
Stop trying to pretend this country is anything other than a backwards stone age cesspool of intolerance. And it was like that before 2001 so don't give me that anti Western horse shite
So much of Afghanistan was destroyed through US/British imperialism. It looks like a great place and I wish that less people were ignorant to the true reality of the situation.
Rubbish countru
This is a scam it is just like aljazer this is fake news so be careful
You always focus on negativities
I saw the face on the thumbnail and instantly recognised the guy. I can't wait to watch the full documentary.
A tourist ? It's Drew Binsky
Drew Binsky made it 🔥
Long story short, he likes holidays and my life hasn't changed one bit.
Plot twist: he was going their to join isis but he couldn’t find the training camp, so he pretended he was on holiday instead
Lol drew on bbc now
Yessss AFGHANISTAN 🇦🇫 bra!!!!! Thanks BBC 🙏🙏
I always love afghans & Afghanistan .
You from Afghanistan
Shame on UK and USA that these two countries ctreated this mass problems for the people of Afghanistan and for the whole region by funding Islamist terrorism such as taliban,al-Qayada and isis. We the Afghans know that which countries are funding terrorism in Afghanistan. USA,UK,SAUDI and Pakistan.
The people in Pakistan that fund terrorism are from America. Shame on the us for giving Pakistan a bad name.
No America is the head, and America funds people in Pakistan to then fund terrorism.
I'm from the UK and I'd like to say sorry
Tourerrist
Is drew binsky !!!
I think BBC miss NOMADIC INDIAN.
Kurdistan ❤ Afghanistan ❤
Eminem's travelling the world to find materials for his new album.
Love from Pakistan
I wana visit afghanistan too..❤
I think it’s great what he’s doing ❤️ Hopefully he can be safe out there!
Afghanistan is beautiful & interesting..
CD 70 in Afghanistan too😂
This video gave me goosebumps. We can only imagine how hard it must be to live there, knowing that the country has so much potential. However, due to the circumstances tourists would never visit.
Yeah im sure female tourists are safe...... Not!
I burned quran.......Muhammad was a pedophile
I Live in Chicago 🇺🇸 I’m dating an Afghan guy. HONESTLY HE’s nice (but still in the closet) I just wished Afghan culture was more open and not so radical Bc I want to travel there too.
Ok pablo you and your bf take a trip to kabul Ill read about in the newspaper
DREW!!
I think it’s first time that bbc showed something positive about my country. Afghanistan. My beloved country who destroyed by other nations. I hope one day we become free.
Destroyed by yourselves also
It's sad that a place with so much history, culture and civilization has been destroyed by the Taliban. I hope things get back to normal and Afghanistan becomes once again the paradise that it was in the 60s and 70s.
Its crazy seeing this through the Eyes of a tourist instead of me being there as a soldier... It was a such a gorgeous country..to bad the Taliban Came and then America came :(
YAYY DREWWWWWW
Man, what a cool trip. I would love to ride through Afghanistan.
Are you looking for a mass destruction weapon for Tony Blair?
Drew gets more views than BBC. Also kinda sad that these people will almost never know better lives becuase of the circumstances and their own traditions
Very happy to see Drew featured
I came here only bcs there was dree binsky
Yall didnt just make a video bout' DREW. Lol
Yok ben mide bulandırmayayım
I thought BBC was going to criticize him, but they didn't. Well done BBC
I deployed to Afghanistan and went to 4 different provinces during my time there. It was the most beautiful country I have ever been to including America. The ice capped mountain ranges that seem to stretch forever are so beautiful especially from helicopter. It wasn’t always fun during my time there but it was gorgeous.
There is beauty in every country - but I would not want to visit Afghanistan anytime soon.
Why is everybody talking about thumbnail dude lol
Ill fix The title for you „moron in a dangerous place”
Afghanistan looks beautiful but I wonder why some people don't want peace there?
How come when we go to their countries, we have to live by their way of life, yet when they come here, they build Mosques everywhere and they do the complete opposite to us.
Cry 😂
F*ck the BBC
Yesss theory ⚡
Yeah let me go and meet the Taliban 🥳
The Questions is who created Ql-Qaida and terrorist groups
