Our around the world drive plans have changed a lot over the past 4 years and here we are in Africa. But driving in our 2WD 20 year old Fiat Ducato Campervan is a bit harder that we thought?
Do you want to join us for a special party to celebrate the completion of our drive around the drive this September. We'd love to meet you there:

Try letting some air out your tyres when travelling on dirt roads. It will soften your ride and the dirt roads will not be as harsh on Trudy. I grew up on The Bluff and still live in Durban. Great videos.

I grew up and this was my norm. I always took it for granted. I live in the US now and your videos make me homesick. I can still smell the air and feel the soil. I try and take a group of friends to SA every 2 years and love to see their reaction. I am blessed to have been raised in SA. Enjoy every moment. I think the best therapy is being in the bush with no cellphone signal and be between the animals. SA is a beautiful couuntey and so diverse for the relatively small land mass.

If you guys are planning to return to SA and travel in the national parks in South Africa have a look at getting a Wild card online it covers your entrance/nature conservation fees and initially it sounds like a lot but if you add up all the places you can go to it is actually better to have a card. Enjoy the journey don't rush SA remember the journey is the destination. Safe travels.

I'm South African, and I'm sure it's been said a ton of times already, but I love experiencing South Africa through fresh eyes. You guys are doing this beautifully! Your delightful fresh awe of the wildlife and scenery is a wonderful reminder of how privileged we are! Love the random details you include in your videos, mostly your interactions with local people.. This being a factor that many KZfaqrs often forget to include. I'm sure by now you've already been thru the Kruger National Park, but if you think the wildlife was impressive in this video... Wait for it!

Great video, I trust that after this experience you can appreciate my previous comment on your last video 😉where i said, if possible, stay off dirt roads…I do understand that this time round, it was not avoidable. That being said, appreciate how dangerous it was to drive through the game reserve. Getting stuck is real, getting a flat tire is real, lions are real…very real…and you don’t ever want to risk climbing out of your vehicle inside a game reserve. And of course not knowing if another vehicle will come along to assist you in the event things go south. Travel safe and again (where possible) avoid dirt roads.

The thing is you mustn't show you are afraid. And they can tell the difference between men and women. If a man has to walk towards them they will 99% of the time run out of the man's way, but not for women. If women are hiking in the mountains with backpacks they will attempt to see if they can get food out of the backpacks, but not if men are around. One time I had walked away from my car to take pictures and there were other people around and baboons too. When I came back to my car there was a huge baboon on top the car. I just shooed him - he got off my car very quickly and moved off.

Loving the South African videos. Makes me wish that I'd gone to Mozambique whilst living there, but I can always go back for a visit. Please be careful with the window washers, they are on you before you can say "no" . When stationary in traffic, you are at their mercy, and if you refuse payment, it can turn nasty... speaking from experience. Those "monkeys" were baboons, keep your windows closed. They have been known to break window wipers. The big poo looked like it had come from a rhino or buffalo. I was fortunate enough to work on a game reserve where both were present and it was commonplace. It's a pity you aren't going to the western Cape.... the diversity of the region is truly beautiful. Maybe you will go back to SA one day and cover this area as well😊. Looking forward to more Southern African adventures.

Hi guys! What a wonderful video. I recently left South Africa now living in Australia. You HAVE to goNamibia then West Coast, Cape Town and return to Durban via Garden Route. While in South Africa you will miss out tremendously not using the opportunity to see that side of SA.

The monkeys were Baboons. Loving the empty roads and long vistas, just wonderful to drive through the National Parks. Happy you have a few days with your Turkish friends 😊

In Cape Town you can leave your kitchen unattended with the door open otherwise you will have baboons looking for food. Many places along the roads you will get signs, DO NOT FEED BABOONS! for good reason, like don't feed the bear or leave food out that will attract bear in the US and Canada

Wow. This was so excited to come across this programme and see the friendly British people passing my town and didn't get to see them. What a pity! Welcome and enjoy your journey

I discovered your channel yesterday only and am really enjoying it. Your plan to go to Victoria Falls through Zimbabwe is amazing. But try to avoid the SA-ZIM border crossing at Beitbridge. It's a nightmare. Rather cross into Zimbabwe through Botswana at the Plumtree border. Safe journey.
