Oh wow that’s awesome Louise. If you need anything while here or if you just want a friend to contact you welcome to contact me. If not have a fantastic trip Thank you for watching and commenting
Hey Bruce, Thanks for the amazing content. It's getting better and better with each episode. It's a small thing but I really appreciate you being a thoughtful camper as well; things like covering the ash and staying in tracks ensures that more people get to experience overlanding. Also love the level headed tips. Happy 50th mate. Wishing you many more years and kilometers 🙌🏾🎉🛻
Thank you very much, and I am very happy to hear you think the episodes are getting better and better. Thank you so much for the support and taking the time to comment.
Lol in 1965 as Moremi was proclaimed before places like 3rd Bridge etc were heard of >> we camped anywhere in Moremi with the School Master and 3 other St Andrews Pupils using a Landy Series something. We saw the Sign Butcher outside a hut in Maun long before Deli Meat and Woolies and tar roads in Maun and we needed Meat to stock up. Walked in >> Flies every where and were told 'They only have fresh Goat Meat ' We accepted. Out came a rusty old .22 Rifle and he went out the back of the Hut to the Stockade >> Bang .. We waited 30 mins outside in the fresh air and the meat was cut up on the dirty counter. We had a meat stew in Moremi later that night >> It was like eating a Veldskoen!!!great days in that area. Oh yes Daily Fees etc in Moremi in 1965 = NIL 😄
Hahaha like eating a veldskoen!! 😂😂😂 Thank you for sharing Peter. What a great story; not for the goat! 😂 Bots has had massive change in the last 10years never mine 57 years. It’s a bit sad to be honest.
I was watching on my laptop when I saw you handing out soccer balls to kids. May the Lord Jesus Christ Who is God and His Holy Ghost be Merciful and Gracious to you 🙌🏿✝️🧎🏾. Hats t-shirts plakkies would also make for good gifts I would imagine... Thank you ever (!) so much for spreading good cheer as you go.
Thanks for the awesome content Bruce 🤟 You are flying the Landy flag so well for us who love the brand & showcasing it in its rightful place ... in the African bushveld. Go well mate and thank you!
Thank you. I have recorded one two weeks ago in Gonarezhou but still need to see if it will be ok. Not sure as usually these types of videos are to sell things for sponsors of which I have none so I think it’s a bit harder. I will be putting something together though. Hope it will be ok Thank you for the support
Hey Bruce .. mooshie video as always… been looking forward to your Botswana trip .. you bring the outdoors to us which is great … not the same as being there but it’s so nice to see the bush again! Stay safe and keep well shamwari .. hamba gashle ( go well ) ! Look forward to more of this . Keep it up ! 👌🏻👍👋🏼 and lastly… hope you had a great birthday .. looks like you did after that chopper flight !
Thank you so much for watching again. I really try do that and glad you see that. I have just come back from another zim trip which I also can’t wait to share but it’s going to be a while. Thank you again for your support shamwari. …hamba gashle
12:58 when the queen speaks, you action her commands at the speed of lightning ⚡️😂 I guess this time you can use the word “Cozy” to describe the trip unlike the last time with Ryan 😂😂😂
Hahaha got to keep the boss happy 😂😂 and yes prefer the use of the word cozy with my wife rather than Ryan for sure 😂 Thanks for watching and commenting A-Jay.
Bruce what an episode wow camping at its best helicopter flight fliipen lekke hope you have a lekke birthday epic episode can't wait for next episode mooi loop
Thanks so much Shaun. The helicopter flip has been on the bucket list for a long time so was awesome to tick it off. Thanks so much for watching and commenting again mate. Appreciate it
Hi Bruce Loved the heli footage. We will be there next month and will also fly the heli. Bucket list indeed 👍 2 ideas for improving the sound: 1 record your narration inside the landy; 2 record it with the mic inside your wardrobe. The latter worked for us 👍
Awesome have a great trip. Thank you for watching and commenting and for the advice. I hope you will see an improvement in the sound in my latest video as I have started using a proper microphone
Hi Bruce, that flip in the helicopter must have been fantastic, well done with another great episode. Looking forward to the next episode, looks like a great campsite you where camping at. Cheers 🍻on your birthday, wishing you many more happy landy kms 👍 ian
Hi Bruce, my first teaching job back in 1997 was for the British Council in Botswana. After I signed the paperwork I became ill and never got there! One day!
I hope you are able to get there one day. It’s a spectacular place, mind you, most of Southern Africa is spectacular All the best and thank you for watching and commenting
Thanks very much Peter. It is a very different experience for sure and great fun. In the next episode I took my brother and a mate I met along the way and did some cutlines and bush camping with them. Their first experience. We had a great time. Thank you for watching.
We are very happy with it although we did have the shocks fail in it but I can’t blame conqueror for that. It’s very comfortable and easy to set up. Good luck with your choice Thank you for watching and commenting
Thank you. I have just got back from Zimbabwe. Can’t wait to show you that content. I basically visited some off the main route places and and some of the eastern highlands. I also made it to Zimbabwe’s most southern point and a bunch of exciting stuff I can’t wait to share. Remember mermaids pools? Wait till you see what I found Thank you for watching and commenting
Thanks so much. It was expensive. I can’t remember exact price as I had my eyes closed 😂 so maybe look on their website at the different options. Thank you for watching
Howzit Bruce. Happy Birthday on the " Fifth Floor ". Will be joining you in 2 months. I really enjoy your travels out in the bush. Bots is so expanse. Lekker 🇧🇼
Hi Matthew. Yes I did. No I never had any issues. I wanted to see how much difference there was. I have since gone back to the 20’s as I could not see a huge benefit in the 18’s for my type of travel. All I did experience was an increase in fuel consumption
@@OverlandingwithBruce Interesting. I was shocked when I saw it because I’ve been telling so many people about this guy that does overlanding on 20”s 😂 - When people ask me why I don’t go to a smaller rim size, I have 19”s. But thanks for the feedback, I’m glad to hear you haven’t had issues. Although your vehicles capabilities probably also play a massive role in that hey.
@@matthewboonzaaier oh shucks lucky I put them back on :) :) To be honest I have been on trips where someone lost a BFG Mud Terraing 16 inch tyre and I had no problems with my 20 inch standard wheels. Sometimes it's just luck and other times it maybe a bit of ability or care. Either way I am back on the 20's from now. If I do a very tough route with very tough tracks and lots of sharp rocks I may fit the 18's but right now Im very happy with the 20's. Another thing people say is you won't get tyres in rural places for the 20's well I can tell you you cant get most size tyres in rural areas. This year I am going to break lots of rules that we have all been told about Overlanding so watch this space. 🤣 Thank you so much for watching and commenting.
@@OverlandingwithBruce I would imagine that some luck or taking that extra care or caution could sometime play a bigger role than the type of tyres or wheels Thanks for the replies I’m with you on that one. Let’s prove them wrong Keep up the content, it’s great stuff
Brilliant video Bruce, they just keep on get better each time. The helicopter flight was sensational!! What a place!!! Sadly I’ll never get to see it in real life, but thanks for taking us there. “Bucket list stuff” for sure. I really enjoy you keeping the superlatives under control!!😂😂 Looking forward to the next one !! And a belated Happy 50th!
Thanks very much Steve and thank you again for the support and taking the time to comment. I’m still getting over the 50 part to be honest 😂 Thank you and sorry you can’t make it to visit. Hope that changes for you

Many thanks for posting this great video. I'm just back from a two week self drive camping safari in Namibia. It was incredible. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪
Hi Damian. Thank you for watching and commenting. Very happy to hear you enjoyed the video. I have Ireland on my list so hopefully will be visiting your country soon
We did the helicopter tour in July. A first for us too and we also found it was Amazing! Like it that you show the accomodations too. Looking forward to the next video. Belgian greatings!
@@OverlandingwithBruce Thanks for the response! So you eventually decided against the 20's even though they had adequate sidewall? Or were there other factors that influenced your decision?
@@dumanimjo609 its a pleasure. I am now back on 20's. The 18's will always be slightly better off road but the 20's are better overall I think. I still have the 18's and will use them perhaps if I do a trip where I know it will be lots of rough off roading.
Thanks very much Bruce, excellent as always. I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos and am looking forward to the next one. Happy 50th and may you have a blessed year ahead.....cheers.

Is your lighting enough around your vehicles when doing camping ?
It’s plenty. You do always have to be careful no matter how much light you have. Thank you for watching and commenting

Hey Bruce,
I see you changed your wheels? What was your main deciding factors for that?
Did you ever have capability issues on the originals?
