I did the same trip and route into Gonarezhou with my grandparents when I was 15 in 2012. The river crossing into Directors had my gran very nervous as one would be (like you guys). She demanded that we wade it first to see if it was okay to cross, we chose note to. When we got to the island on the left (25:57), it was absolutely surrounded by crocodiles, only then for the hippos in the next stretch! She was so shook! It's a really cool memory. Thank you for posting this video, I lost my grandfather a year ago, so this makes me feel warm and nostalgic❤️ We went in a Toyota Landcrusier 76 Troopie he called Skillie. He would have loved this video!

What can I say, we have just stayed 6 nights in Gonarezhou, last night a week ago, at the end of a 4 week Zim road trip. Seeing this on our 2nd day home in Oz brings tears to my eyes. Gonarezhou is officially my favourite place in the world. We stayed some nights in Chipinda camp 1 and did not need to go anywhere to enjoy the wildlife passing by. Zim has some of the best wildlife, national parks and genuine wild camping of the world. The people are friendly and fantastic, and while travelling you meet the most wonderful visitors. What a place! Can't wait to get back and explore more parts of the park. Thanks for the video @Edwardbath. Looking forward to part 2.

Those little jump packs are handy if you're ever in a place where you don't have another vehicle to jump you. Got one in our daily cars here. Charge them every month to be safe, twice in winter. Good to see that you guys are using something that basic to combat electrical gremlins.

Zimbabwe my beautiful country, we have one of the most beautiful scenery in the world, vast landscape, vast wildlife, the best climate and the best arable land and above all the most tolerant and loving people in the world. Anything you can think of is found in Zimbabwe, if it was possible to rewind back to the time of creation, we might be shocked that the garden of Eden was in Zimbabwe. People all over the world, if you are planning any vacation, make Zimbabwe your place to be, you will never regret it.
