    Great utilization of simple, modern, relatively inexpensive tools to capture almost Hollywood quality cinematography. Good production and editing. Beautiful scenery and appropriate amount of narration. God bless!

    We used to camp in the Groot Rivier Poort when I was a kid in the 1980s before we moved to Australia. I still remember it well despite how long ago it was. We would take out Kombi Van and cross the river, which was exciting. Sometimes walk up-river for an hour or so and camp under a huge yellow-wood tree. I nearly stood on a puff adder on the way back once, which I still remember well, as it gave me a hell of a fright. Thanks for making the video and bringing back old memories!!!

    AIsh love the vid bud but the speed version makes me dizzy and I miss the scenery, I know you live there and take it for granted or maybe just want to get from A to B without boring the viewer but the country is so beautiful I could watch it all day. Great stuff otherwise I watched the long trip up to Namibia through Vic Falls and back all night last night, brought back so many memories as Ive done that area way back in the 70's when I was a yougster

      Its a terrible road! A Toyota Corolla tried to overtake me and rolled right in front of me. Would have gone into me if I didn’t brake as I saw him trying to overtake. One of the reasons we got to camp late😂

      @@mattdubber thats what always irritates me especially on dirt roads. When someone overtakes you on a dusty road when you driving 100kmph and then they drive 80kmph in front of you. Some people also don't have any patients. Glad you guys are ok. I Would have been very angry if that idiot damage my new bakkie after you spend so much money on it to get it where it is. My friend was in a head to head collision in town with a taxi. He has an ARB bumper on his mazda bakkie. The taxi was moertoe. Could not drive anymore. He only had to get a new indicator lens cover. R12. LOL
