- We get up early and head out for the sunrise safari drive. It’s not long before we’re spoilt with a BUFFALO herd at a nearby waterhole. We take in the scenes over a cup of coffee, before heading back to Berg-en-Dal to check out, and make our way to LOWER SABIE Camp. The drive across the lower part of the Kruger National Park is nothing short of spectacular as we witness the release of a RHINO, a pride of LIONS resting in a river bed, and some amazing ELEPHANT sightings…all before we even make it to the next camp.
Come join us for the ride, and if you enjoy the content, please give it a thumbs up, and subscribe to the channel. You’ll get notified of new episodes and new adventures that we undertake.
These roads and river fords look very familiar, as does the Lower Sabie area. I truly miss this. Paul Kruger and the SA Government of the day had incredible foresight to create Kruger National Park almost a century before conservation and environmentalism became a big issue. Truly wonderful, thank you for this video.
You’re most welcome - indeed, deep foresight back then has resulted in so many adventures to this day. When last did you visit Kruger?
@@graemecumming I was there in May 2021 and again in early April 2022. I may be back in S.A. in December.
Thouroughly enjoying your Kruger tours. Even the Shamwari tour to celebrate the 80th birthday. Shamwari is near my brother, Jimmie Emslie's farm at Sevenfountains. He is Albany Pumps and does the water reticulation installations and maintenance at Shamwari.
Thanks for the comment Wally - glad to hear that you are enjoying the video's. Take care.
Wow 12:22 at the video, such a memorable moments seeing a rhino being realised
Thanks Asa. It's so sad that we are at the point where Rhino's are being de-horned in order to protect them...but yes, it was special to see this Rhino being released back into the wild.
Another great video Graeme. You had some great sightings while you were at Berg En Dal. We are looking forward to watching the next episode. Keep ‘em coming 😎
Glad you enjoyed it Karl. Those Lions were extra special for us...we were lucky to have seen so many, and for so long.
great vid G, as always...
The Lions were special…must have spent an hour with them…
Just a great video really enjoyed the whole journey thank you
Thanks for the comment and happy to hear you are enjoying it. Have you been to the Kruger Park before?
Don't know when I will have a chance to visit the Kruger Park again. Thanks for taking us along on your trip!
It’s a great pleasure Lelani - glad you are enjoying it. Hopefully you get a chance to visit in person soon!
Only just came across your TH-cam channel and really enjoying seeing the incredible Kruger Park. Missing home 🇿🇦 so much but your videos certainly ease the aching heart 🥰 I think your content is brilliant
Great to get that kind of feedback, thank you. 🙏
Hi Graeme and Karen
Thanks for your beautiful videos from the Kruger Park. I am a Namibian and we have got the Etosha Park 160km from our home. Have not been to the Kruger Park hopefully one day then I will ask you where is the nicest place to stay. Looking forward to yoyr next trip to the Kruger Park. Regards Monika Detering, Grootfontein Namibia
Hey Monika - thanks for your comment and for watching. Really happy to hear that you enjoyed the Kruger adventure. You have a deal - when you plan your Kruger trip, let me know and I’ll help you select the best places to go. I’m return, I’d love your advice on Etosha. I’ve never been but it’s on my bucket list and I’d love some local advice. Take care.
@@graemecumming Hi Graeme I will help you with pleasure with your Etosha trip one day. We have not so much camps to stay like Kruger Park. Let me know when you are ready. Enjoy your day. Regards Monika Detering
Puik video Kruger altyd n wenner
Thanks Shaun! 👍🏼
So sad...don't think I will ever see a rhino in the wild with a horn..but ja if that's what it takes to protect this species
It is sad. Personally I don’t believe it’s sustainable or fair to dehorn. Current solution, but I’m confident that better solutions will be found soon. Thanks for watching and for your comment Melissa.
Nice vid, what camera are you using to film? Miss the kruger
Thanks Paulo. I use the GoPro Hero 8 Black mostly but for the close up shots, I recently bought the Canon EOS M50 MK II with 70-300mm lens. The Canon is proving to be really good as you’ll see throughout the rest of the series with some of the closeups I managed to get.
@@graemecumming thanks Graeme, for the feedback. Time for an upgrade, am am still using the my Sony hand-cam. Clarity not bad but i want better quality. My Sony I’ve had for about 7years or more. Done a few vids of the Kruger love it. Have a great dam
Don't Rhinos need their horn for protection against predators???
You raise a good point Brenda - It is known that rhinos use their horns for several functions, including defending territory, calves from other rhinos and predators and foraging behaviour, such as digging for water and breaking branches. The sad truth here, is that the removal of the horn, although detrimental to the above behaviours, is likely to keep the rhino alive from poachers. The just is out on whether this is the best way to protect them against poachers though - its a really sad, and desperate situation.
You could improve your videos quite a bit by keeping the camera on scenery and not on you. You tell us how nice the scenery is, but …….. show us than no explanation is necessary.
Thanks Werner. Good feedback. 👍🏼
