- Crossing the Red Line in Namibia: Grootfontein to Rundu
In this video we cross the red line in Namibia, also know as the veterinary cordon fence. We drive from Grootfontein to Rundu, sleeping over at the popular Roy's rest camp. I also provide some information about entering Khaudum National Park from the southern gate.

I will be coming from Khaudum North gate via Rundu to Grootfontein--nice video this helps thanx!
I've always wanted to see Grootfontein and Rundu..this video just made me wanna go there even more 😭..I just had to come back to this video
Namibia is soo beautiful neat and clean,good content mate keep it up,love from Zimbabwe
Thanks🙂
Ah nice to see Rundu again. I was there 25 years ago at RVTC setting up the plumbing department. I’m bringing my family for a visit this year 2023, out to Swakopmund, Palmwag, Etosha, Rundu, Vic Falls, and back to Windhoek. I drove up through Chobe 17 years ago with my wife, that was some drive in a petrol Navara in the wet!!! At one point we were running on two cylinders, then drying the distributor out 😂😂😂😂
😂things have changed, even have a bridge to cross into Zambia from Kazangula now. Enjoy the trip
@@NickfrNamibia your enthusiasm has been great to watch. Thank you for your input and wish you well in whatever your doing now. I’m sure my boys will be stunned with the diversity of Namibia. I would have liked to get them to Chiefs Island in the Delta but we won’t have time. Rafting down the Zambezi will be great for them too. I’m a lot older since my last time down there though 😂
During my army days, I stayed over at Grootfontein and Rundu, on my way to our base near Katimamalilo. That was 50 years ago.
I was in the Groitfontein, Ondangwa area in 1976!
It looks very different nowadays.
I'm impressed by the condition of the roads. Well done, Namibia 😊
Looks like you got out of Windhoek just in time with the flooding there. Grootfontien brings back memories of when we passed through there doing our military service.
I did, crazy what happened there with all the water. Im sure its changed a bit since then ie they have a mall now
I like ur TH-cam channel
I loved the blue sky and summer clouds in the first part. 😎
Thank you🙂
i'm from rundu, dude! your video is so cool
Thanks👍🙂
Glad to see you back doing vids. I'm visiting Namibia in September and might have to ask you to be my tour guide for a day 😆
for a day only?
As iemand wat baie deur Afrika reis en verstaan wat dit verg, waardeer ek die moeite wat jy insit in die videos. Baie goed gedoen en baie informative. Hou so aan.
Great, thank you so much for the information. I will be in Namibia from the 29th December 2022 to 6th January 2023 and will be coming back via the Rundu route back to Botswana...i will try Roy Camp...thanks for that.
big pleasure, enjoy your stay in Namibia
Aaah, "die Rooi lyn"...
Yet another very informative & properly detailed episode Nick - great work buddy! 👌
Thank you
Great trip down memory lane. Travelled that road many times in 86 and 87. It was a dirt road the whole way.
Serious, wow😮things have changed
Wow, very educational video. I am a Scandinavian living in Australia. We came 5 years after the end of the white Australia policy. I think your videos are very informative.
I enjoy your mini grocery hauls 😆 🤣
😂I'll remember to include them in the future
Where the goats eating out of bins not what i expected clean neat town
haha, its coming.
The video makes me miss home
Great journey . X
thanks🙂
Great video again. Merry X-mas and a happy new Year
Thanks Giusep, Merry Xmas, Happy New Year and Im waiting to hear about that Angola trip😁
Ek het daar groot geword! Grootfontein skool en my ouers was by Mururani hek KAVANGO BEESBOERDERY❤
Ek ook😁 was in Wilhelm Nortier skool daar, later Windhoek to vir höerskool
🙌🙌
Miskien moet jy maar eerder die ou manne van die SAW vra hoe om daai plekname uit te spreek 😁
Been meaning to ask you, what is your bakkie's fuel consumption like since you rebuilt the engine?
haha, ek sal moet. 7.5km/lt, hulle se dit sal beter raak sodra die engine "settle"
Nick, Great video as usual and the info on the red line I was not aware of!!! where are you going to be later January and Feb? I will be doing my first overland tour of Namibia, and Botswana. Rob from the UK
glad you enjoyed it and found it useful. Should be in either the North-West or the coast. Let me know when you land.
Hello Nick, thanks for this video! You have the best Namibia videos!!! Do you know whether beef biltong “jerky” is considered uncooked meat that would be confiscated at the red line going south or east in Namibia?
thanks for watching. Yeah, biltong is too close to raw meat and will most likely get taken. As you can see from the Govt Notice there are many grey areas and up to the officials to decided with which you cant argue. So I wont chance it.
@@NickfrNamibia Nick, got it. Thank you! Have a good holiday with your family.
Some of those prizes though ,white bread for 30nad ....never bought such expensive bread before I'm sure you meant 13nad 😅
My bad😂
Great video Nick, but your patreon list is .... incomplete 😣

What is like to be a German Namibian in Namibia?
It's difficult to say. I haven't spent a lot of time with local Germans
