  • We take you on a self-drive journey through the heart of Kruger National Park in search of Africa's wildlife. We focus a little more on the wildlife sightings here as we experience one of Kruger's most prized sightings involving a pride of lions hunting buffalo, elephant chaos and much more. Sit back and relax as we bring Kruger to you!
    A big thanks to special guest, Jordan for joining another WildWild Journey.
    It has come to our attention that comments about the busses in the park may have been misrepresented. For the purpose of providing some clarity, we feel it needs to be said that the comments were in no way or shape aimed at the visitation of school kids to the park. At WildWild, we fully support and encourage the visitation and education of children to these beautiful protected areas. The comments were aimed at the high speed of the busses that came barreling through the sighting. At Kruger National Park, and other National Parks alike, there are speed regulations put in place, not only to protect the park and the animals within it, but also to protect you. A bus filled with learning children should be driven more responsibly not only for the obvious reasons but to also set a better example.
    All of that being said, we do not shy from constructive feedback at WildWild and we encourage you to keep sending through your thoughts and opinions that will help us grow. We appreciate your feedback and we look forward to gaining insight from this experience and representing WildWild and ourselves more suitably in the future.
    Thanks for watching

    Thank you for sharing. Just love the Kruger Park. When I lived in South Africa I visited the Park over 40 times and the last five times I stayed for at least 2 weeks. My late parents went there for the first time in 1947. They loved the place and as kids my brother went with them three times a year. Their ashes were sprinkled at the look out point at Olifants camp.
    Beautiful beautiful place. Hope I can go back there again one day. The baboons and monkeys were a pest but if you keep a plastic snake on the deck or table they will not come near you.

      Hi Tessa, thanks for watching! Wow, sounds like Kruger really runs through your family’s blood. Would love to know what it was like back in 1947. Sounds like you have a deep and lifelong connection with the place - I really hope you can go again too!

      Those are school kids and most of them do not have the privilege of being in the comfort of a 4x4 and experience the park.. sad part is that most of them stay right next to KNP but they hardly get the chance to go there

    Nice accommodations! Are the windows protected from animals? Where are all those buses coming from? If the lions get up it is because they smell something good and they are hungry!

    • @WildWildJourneys
      @WildWildJourneys  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Joyce, animals there aren’t a problem as long as you keep food hidden/locked away and the larger animals fortunately can’t get into the camp!
      The busses we think are school tours through the park, which is great to see. Just wish they were done in a more controlled way 😄

    Great video! Would you recommend driving to Kruger or to Pilanesberg for a first-time safari, to someone who is coming for 2 weeks to South Africa?

    • @WildWildJourneys
      @WildWildJourneys  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks Mateusz! If you don’t have much time and want an easier, more convenient trip 2 hrs from Johannesburg then Pilanesberg is great. Otherwise, Kruger would be the much better all round and wild experience in my opinion. Kruger would maybe leave more of an impression on you but you can’t go wrong with either!

    After discovering your channel and I enjoyed your Marakele video ,now I'm watching your second video "the heart of Kruger " but the comments and the langufrom your companion regarding the busses "it's uncalled for " and discourages one to continue to watch, but I'm willing to let it go . We should see it as a great thing to see busses bringing kids to the park so that our heritage can have more protectors tomorrow. I'm an occasional wildlife photographer and a qualified field guide but not working in the industry. Many if my peers don't see the value of this heritage because they grew up not exposed it.

    • @WildWildJourneys

      Hi Matshete. Firstly, thanks for watching and secondly, thanks for your comment regarding the giraffe/bus sighting - it helps us learn a few things. To provide clarity, our reaction was in relation to the busses (drivers) speeding through the sighting and certainly not the kids visiting the park. We’re in full support of the kids experiencing nature and visiting the park. Looking back, the way I (Byron) put that segment together does make it look like we were annoyed at the kids visiting. I’ve learned from that and will do better to represent ourselves, the channel and the journeys in a more clear way. Please also see the pinned comment on this.
      Thanks again for watching and I hope it hasn’t turned you off the channel.

    Nice video but the comment about the buses that is a bit extreme saying they shouldn’t be allowed, the kids might have ruined your Giraffe sighting(which i'm 100% they’re not aware) but they are also having a time of their lives. That comment the lady made ruined this video.

    • @WildWildJourneys

      Hi Wester, thanks for the feedback. I’m aware how that comment came across, and it certainly was not about the kids visiting the park but rather the high speed driving of the busses. Of course, it’s great to have the kids experiencing Kruger. I could’ve been more thoughtful in making that clear in the editing process.
      Thanks

    Those 3 lions are probably sisters! I dislike hyenas, maybe it is because I was told in grade that I laughed like a hyena! I have yet to see a laughing hyenas!

    • @WildWildJourneys
      @WildWildJourneys  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I agree about the lions, they’re surely from the same pride.. That sounds like a fair excuse not to like hyenas, but if you ever saw a baby hyena it might change your mind 😄

    The giraffe sighting and you guys bluntly acting snobbish threw me off. I call it ignorance. Those are school excursion buses with school kids from underprivileged backgrounds experiencing the Kruger. You guys calling for a ban of those types of vehicles seeks to deprive others from experiencing Kruger. Again, I call it ignorance and an overtly possessive attitude towards nature.

    • @WildWildJourneys
      @WildWildJourneys  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi there, sorry if it came across like that. I can see where you’re coming from and maybe I could’ve been clearer when editing the video. We’re totally all for the underprivileged kids getting a chance to visit and enjoy nature. What we were alluding to is how the busses are driven at high speeds through sightings, which sets the wrong example to the kids for how to approach wildlife and carry yourself in nature in a respectful way. So, definitely not upset that there are schools visiting but the manner in which it’s carried out.
      Thanks for speaking up and letting me know. Will make an effort to be clearer in future.
