Desert Drama: Scorching Adventures in the Kalahari [E7]
Рет қаралды 2,314
Күн бұрынJoin us for a journey to Augrabies Falls National Park, where hot nights and stunning vistas await us at the exclusive Gorge Cottage. A quick overnight stop at Molopo Lodge takes us to the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park where get more than we bargained for ... it was a mess of vehicles stuck in the deep sand roads, but Hamilton (our plucky Hilux) held his own by successfully recovering one of the others while his older brother (a Cruiser) took care of the rest.

Great to see kindness shown to you with the upgrade to the chalet and then you paying it forward helping the folk stuck in the sand 😊

Awesome, that will be us...stuck in the sand! Also our first trip there in November but we will be in chalets. Looking forward to the next episode ❤

Hopefully the sand won't be so thick to bog you guys down. The roads keep changing up there so we hope you get through without a problem. But it's always an amazing place to visit and we're sure you're going to love it 😀

You girls are so much fun, even when faced with stuck vehicles! We are going to KTP for the first time in 3 weeks time, we'll be staying 10 nights in total. We have rechargeable fans packed so that we can sit in the vehicle at waterholes without the engine running. Really looking forward to our trip, we were hoping that we might sight two Cross Africa females but no doubt you'll be back home planning your next adventure! Maybe one day we will see you further down the road!

Maybe you guys need one of those small rechargeable fans? We have a Meaco one and it’s brilliant and super quiet too.😊

Good morning Lynsey and Suzann, awesome vidio once again, first youtube footage we have seen on the Gorge Cottage. Looked fantastic. Question on the current condition of the Kgalagadi roads? We have a booking at the end of May. What time of the year was your trip and where was the problem sand section on the Auob river?

Hi there 😊 Thanks so much for watching, so glad we could show you the Gorge Cottage. As for the Kgalagadi roads .... they're generally in a good condition but with the sand being deeper than we've personally experienced before (in some places). The problem section on the video was between MataMata and the first picnic site you get to on your way down to Twee Rivieren (I forget the picnic site's name). We were there at the end of February this year and it was very hot, so the sand was very soft in the middle of the day and the fact that the stuck vehicles were running tyre pressures in excess of 2bar contrbuted to the problem.

Thanks. I only have a 2 x 4 vehicle, doen the Kgalagadi plenty times in the old Tucson, even up to Unions End when staying at Grootkolk. Picnic site is Kamqua.
