    Thank you very much Edward. Your videos inspired us to make our first overlanding trip through Boswana and Zimbabwe in autum 2023! It was an incedible experience for us! Now we are infected! Our next trip will start in May!

    I spent 10 days mostly on boats on the Chobe river, paradise, that's why I'm in love with southern and eastern Africa. I actually landed in Vic Falls and stayed there for two days, upon landing in the early evening the driver who picked me up told me to walk the falls in the afternoon because of the rainbows, and he was right, "another level" like you say Edward!

    @michaelgarlickmovies ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Edward. Victoria Falls blew me away, but the elephants with the baby elephant chasing a baboon were incredible. You do such a great service for Africa bringing all this to the world. Such quality in everything you do. I can't wait to get back to S.A. ....in about three weeks time.

    Also next Zim trip you must stay at Zambezi national Park and do the sunset cruise. Hwange is awesome, as is a Kariba houseboat (bring friends to help costs) Managing Pools, Chimanimani, Nyngan eastern Highlands etc

    Wonderful video. The Chobe/Vic Falls part brought back such fond memories. We were able to see the falls one May (very wet) from the Zim side and one October (very dry) from Zambia. The magic of Chobe. We loved seeing all the Ellies, hippos, crocs etc.but one afternoon drive, leopard, lion, tseessebe and sable herds!
    Can't wait for the Namib trip

    Beautiful images Edward! Thank you for sharing. I lived in Zimbabwe back in 1993 and 1994 and was only able to travel a little, only went to Mana Pools. My stay was cut short and I never was able to see Vic Falls, however I hope to return to see it.

    Ed, I am glad you didn’t try the bungee jumping in Victoria Falls. They have a poor safety record and there is at least one video of an Australian girl whose bungee cord snapped because it had worn out and she went straight into the Zambezi and miraculously swam across the river before becoming dinner for the Nile crocs that infest the Zambezi.
    There have been several reports of how to give the Vic Falls bridge bungee jump a skip and the Australian girl was not the first mishap. She was the first one caught on camera.
