This was an amazing trip, right on our backdoor so to speak. Sorry if I butchered some names again, words are hard 😉 Remember to have look at Overlanding Escape (link in the description)!
love you chris from india
Magical Episode Chris! thanks for taking us on this awesome journey!
Thanks Ed!
A complete guide to Kruger’s campsites would be a fantastic resource and certainly very popular too👍👍
Definitely doing it soon!
Man, you speak so well! One of the best 3 presenters on YT. And I watch YT non stop!
Wow, thanks Carel!
Great to see another episode Christoff, and a humdinger it is. As always, emotive videography. Happy to assist with a cleanup. A review of the Kruger camps would be great, a lot can happen in 2 years here in Africa so a comparison between then and now would be informative. Cheers
Thanks Sean! Will give you a shout on the forum re a cleanup, thanks! Keen to do Kruger 👍
Get Out, GO! Please make it a public post, I would be keen - timing dependent.
@@mambobond I'll create a post on the forum and then link it back here
Yes would love to see a new review of all camp sites. Great video as always.
Thank you!
For some reason I missed this one. Only stumbled on it now. Would love to see a Kruger campsite review. Including the sleeping at the hides. Thanks!
Great review Chris, we enjoyed it. Great ellie shots too!
Thanks John!

Gidday Christoff, mate,
Lovely to hear and see you again.
Top revues, as always.
Thanks ever so much.
God bless,
Dave
Howzit Dave! Thank you 🙏🏻
I would definitely like to se more episodes like this and can't wait to see those camp site reviews of the Kruger. Please do a refresher on Tzendze.
Will do Rudolph 👍
Hi Christoff,
I enjoyed your review of Makuya GR. Yes the ablutions do leave a lot to be desired, especially the "new" ablutions which have remained in that half built condition for almost 3 years now!
I really love Makuya. The roads are tough, but the scenery are out of this world! I completed a Solo trip in the Makuya GR not too long ago, and it was WONDERFUL!!
Keep up the good work. Love your campsite reviews!
Thank you, much appreciated!
Awesome video Christoff
Thanks Deresh!
As always, informative, succint, proffesional. Thank you
Thanks Marius!
Thoroughly enjoyable viewing mate 👍🏻🇦🇺
Thanks Stēve!
Stumbled across your channel, what an awesome find! Can’t wait to see some of the spots in person. Sharp sharp!
Thank you!
1st time visitor, subbed, will be reviewing ahead of joining the overland/ outdoor community in 2021. Great to see the different camps
Welcome Marco! Once the overlanding bug bites there's no going back 😉
Awesome vid!! Can’t wait to see all the Kruger campsites!! That would make a great video!
Thank you! Definitely doing Kruger next year 👍
Great idea to rate Kruger's camping sites in a video from north to south or otherwise :)
Watch this space ;)
Awesome episode Christoff. Very jealous about this trip and very sorry that I had to cancel on last minute for the Overlanding Escape week-end at Matamba. Hope to catch-up some time next year when I'm back in SA.
No worries, we'll definitely do another get-together next year!
Yes please Chris, a review of all the camp sites in KNP will be much appreciated.
🤙 been wanting to do it for a while now
Oh that was a great watch fella, Thank you Christoff:D
Thanks Vik!
Love your videos, please do a kruger north to south and Tsendze refresh.
Thank you! Will do 👍
Great video. Thank you. Would love to see a review on all the Kruger Campsites 🙏🏼
Thanks Lyds! Will do!
Yes please! I would love a review on all the camp sites in the Kruger..
Looking to do it early this year still (restrictions dependent obviously)
Kruger campsite reviews would be great. Kruger is very much in need of a revamp. The rest of the trip was great and your get together looked interesting.
Agreed, @SANParks seriously need to repair (and then maintain) Kruger ablutions! We have at least one @OverlandingEscape get-together a year , keep an eye out on our socials for more info 👍
Great video,for me your best video to date in showing the surroundings incl game sightings.
Please do all Kruger Campsites
Thanks Dean!
Enjoing your travels and a great insite on your experiences. A Krugerpark campsite review will be awesome. I hope you get to do it.
Thanks Shaheen! First look at some Kruger campsites coming this Tuesday evening ;)
Nice video..very professional. My fiancé is from Zimbabwe and also lived in South Africa so these videos definitely are a walk down memory lane for her. Definitely enjoy seeing the overland setups.
Thanks Robert, glad if it brings back some good memories!
The ablution facilities at Blouberg received some tlc since your visit. Please see Blouberg's Facebook group page for photos. Thanks for a positive video
Thanks for the info Johan!
Lekker Limpopo!
Nice vid Christoff. Wow some of those roads are terrible. I vote for the KNP top to bottom camp reviews. Headed to Mokala on Monday for a short break in the bush.
Thank you! Definitely doing Kruger next year. I enjoyed Mokala, nice little park!
Christoff ...nice meeting you at Maroela camp in the Kruger Park.
Likewise Louis! 👍
Hi Christoph, was nice meeting you at Tsendze.
Please include the overnight hides in your reviews.
Your reviews are very informative, really appreciate them.
Thanks Hein, was great meeting you too! Will do 👍
Thanks for the review I always enjoy them. Can you please include in your commentary the time of the year that you visit these places, and also perhaps the closest town so we kind of have an idea where these places are.
My pleasure! I usually include the closest town in actual campsite reviews. Time of year is a good idea, thanks 🤙
Sorry I missed you guys at Blouberg. I was out busy with game censuses on all the provincial nature reserves.
No worries Johan, next time!
Hi Christof we use to work together at Brightstar! Really enjoyed your video hey! I bought a road caravan last year and I’m camping regularly in South Africa. With two small children I can’t go to rough places though but eventually I’ll get there when they get bigger! Cheers!
Nice to hear from you Rodrigo! Glad you’re getting out there! 👍
Thanks for sharing with us Christof .Saw you at Punda Maria.Just for interest sake the lookout point at Blouberg also serve as a ramp for the vulture's that was rehablitated to take off into the sky again.
My pleasure Sarel! Didn’t know that, that’s pretty awesome 🤩
Lovely video Christof.
Do you have a contact for Blouberg. Emails not replied to and the number I found is not answered. Thanks Anthony
@@tonybennett5760 Thanks Anthony! The numbers are +27 (0)15 293 8601/8339 or mobile +27 (0)73 068 3180 or +27 (0)72 584 7475
@@GetOutGO Thanks Christo.
Hi Chris. I really liked this report of yours. I was anxiously waiting to see how did you manage to get up the steep incline with the caravan at Makuya GR and then you did not show. Please show it because we can all learn from it. Then I also propose to make the Kruger a program on its own. it will really be interesting to follow your reviews. See you next time.
Thanks Paul! Watch out for the overlanding escape video, we’ll show more of Makuya driving. Was a bit difficult filming and driving at the same time. Bottom line was low-range first gear up and down and diagonal lines with the trailer through dips and over rock steps. Definitely doing the a stand-alone Kruger episode. Cheers!
Great Video, thank you.... Please can you do a review on the Camping sites in the Kruger... thanks
Thanks Jason! Definitely doing Kruger
Thanks Christoff 👊
Shot Shaun!
Please repeat reviews of the camping sites in the Kruger, an updated review is always appreciated
Love the content Chris ! Keep it up ! And expand beyond SA sites - eg Namib and Caprivi etc.
Love the boer hats ! 👍 where do I get them ?
Will be joining your patreon 👍 Keep up the good work !
Will be going u in SA etc when I can escape the Cayman Islands with Covid etc.
Great chemistry with Ed and Ryan- know it’s difficult for you tube start ups but ask everyone to keep down on the product promos when takla/front runner etc...
Cheers matey
Alan
Thanks Alan, much appreciated! The hats are Drizabone (Aussie 😉). Cayman islands aren’t a bad place to be stuck though, right?
@@GetOutGO Thanks - u can get Drizabone in SA or special order ?
R.M. Williams, but Drizabone has stopped making these apparently so grab one while stocks last...
@@GetOutGO 👍
HI . Very nice video.
I think a review of all the campsites in the Kruger in one go will be nice. If can maybe add the gravel type in the campsites as well that will be nice as you know there is some campsites where you can bend a tend peg like a question mark very easily :)
Thanks Frik! I have a campsite map that includes more detail on the sites (little difficult getting everything into one video). I'll have a look if I can include ground type on there as well getoutgo.co.za/campsites-map/
Thanks and have a good festive season
Love this channel to bits. Can I access Tsendze without all terrain tires (Standard Range Rover Sport tires)?
Thank you! Yes, absolutely. It’s tar for 99%, just the very last stretch and inside the camp is dirt but nothing off road
Christoff, your campsite reviews are my trusted source of information on various campsites. How much time does one need for this exact trip?
Thanks, glad they’re helpful! This trip was 25 days but you could do it in 2 weeks (staying 2 nights at each of the camps)
do all... i dont hav the vehicle never been in kruger,, nice thx
Thanks Nic. Most of Kruger is actually accessible by sedan, no 4x4 needed
Please do a review on the whim Kruger area 🤙🏼
In the cards!
Christoff , when you get a chance please do something on the West Coast please.
Been wanting to do something in the West Coast including the Namakwa trail. In the meantime, have you seen my Western Cape video? th-cam.com/video/GkemZ6qwu1I/w-d-xo.html
@@GetOutGO Yes absolutely I have been watching.
Beautiful episode Chris, one question though... How safe are you from the lions at night
Thanks Mooketsi! If you're in unfenced camps you have to be careful. In fenced camps you're safer however I'm always on the lookout for that stray leopard...
Thank You Christoff>>> Now that I am not working @70 time to explore
My pleasure Peter!
Been playing in my backyard again? 😉 DC Polokwane
You know it! 😉
Hi Christoff! I will be joining a wildlife conservation expedition in Limpopo this year. I have arachnophobia though and am dreading this part of the trip. I have no delusions in thinking I will not come across many creepy crawlers. But do you have any advice for someone like me? Thanks!
Hi Kat, maybe try the following; expose yourself to spiders; build an exposure hierarchy (google it), expose yourself to pictures and videos of spiders, hold a toy spider, visit a petshop / exhibit with spiders etc. Work your way up this ladder to the real thing in the wild. Hope that helps!
Out of curiosity, is there any channel in South Africa that is about 4x4's and 4x4 tracks around the country that we can challenge our cars at?

What was your over all
cost on this trip.
R4,5k for accommodation and R3,7k for fuel so R8,2k in total. Not sure about food let’s say R2-3k (25 days, one person)
I love 14 at Tsendze
Yup, I like it as well!
Great video and review.. Looks awesome to be there..
@@nielenvanheerden7116 Thanks ou maat!
Alternate to the R561? Between were and were? U lost me?! Explain, please.
Hi Paul, between Matamba bushcamp and Blouberg nature reserve
Well you have some of the best shots of wildlife I can recall seeing, I think the animals are falling over themselves to get captured by your lense!
Thank you!
Go
awesome vlog keep it going From bredasdorp!
ps. if you want to sell your fortuner comment below ;-)
Thanks Attie! I think this one I’m keeping for a long while 😉
