YES, once again a fantastic travelog , from your earlier ones on construction of your pickup conversion to todays , each new one gets better than the last, the drone footage is such a plus to the entire video which is great even without it. Seeing your gorgeous country as you do, and your running commentary with tidbits of information others might not even think of makes your videos so much better. Also like the cooking and food parts that you include. your KZfaq subscriber totals should be in the millions , folks just don't know what they are missing !. I hope You and your lovely wife continue on these trips and adventures for many years to come, I look forward to them and being as I will never be able to travel to your country to see it for myself I am depending on you to show it all to me, thanks and be safe.

Hay Mate. Really enjoying the series. In the last one I watched you entered the free state. So good to see that area as I have some relatives that live there. I used to watch all the Tarzan movies when I was a kid and it looks nothing like those old movies. Enjoy the shooting ones as much. Good day from Queensland, Australia

This is such a trip! I went up the back end of the Amphitheatre in early '94, with a group of some good friends. I remember that overhanging white sandstone cliff on the road very well. Unfortunately the waterfall was completely dry, but that scenery is next level! There's no way I could do that hike now, in my 50s, but I'm so glad I did it then!

Awesome footage, Matt, thanks for taking us viewers with you. Quick question, I heard You said that the rocky road part to Amphitheatre you need a 4x4 with high clearance, would it be possible with high clearance "bakkie" with diff-lock and capable driver, or is 4x4 a must?

Great Video again, places i have been many years ago. Have a small correction to make, Tugela Waterfall is almost the highest, but gets beaten by 32 meters by the Angel Waterfall in Venezuela. Sorry no offence. I still prevers Zuid Africa. Lekker bly.

It was re-measured recently👍🏻 But as you say, I don’t think it can really be confirmed as its difficult to measure a waterfall precisely!

For some time it was impossible to see images of Tugela Fall. Now the internet and tourism and drones provide. As a fan of Angel Falls I’ve wondered about measurement and now I know there is a problem. Define free fall drop as opposed to cascade with drops. While the Drakensberg region is very, very stunning - wish I were there - Angel Falls presents itself with blatant majesty. Now I feel shame for giving critique upon geology. So glad to see all of this .. as I sit at home as an old guy.
