  • The MIGHTY ZAMBEZI & The GREAT ZIMBABWE RUINS | Ep2
    An overlanding adventure drive like no other, in the second episode of this 3 part series, as we head out from Chitake Springs to the Nyamepi campsites, and then onwards to the Mucheni campsites. Spending a total of 6 nights in the Mana Pools National Park, we then travel to Harare and onwards to Masvingo, where I visit the UNESCO world heritage site that is the Great Zimbabwe ruins. Where to next?

    Once again, a truly stunning adventure well told. When I came to South Africa in March we flew over Zimbabwe in daylight, what a green lush country it is. Thanks again for this video.

    Thank you for visiting Great Zimbabwe and sharing our rich Karanga history. Great Zimbabwe was the brainchild of Mwene Mutapa Mungwabu Rusvingo in the 11th century. The Conical structure was constructed by Mwene Mutapa Mombemuriwo in honour of his great ancestor Sororenzou. Sororenzou's spirit abandoned the site after a civil war broke out.
    The Mwene Mutapa dynasty lasted for some 500 years.
    Look out for my book titled " North of the Limpopo : A Fascinating History of Ancient Zimbabwe"

      No spirit abandoned anything, over grazing and overpopulation hurt the area and weakened the kingdom in terms of food security

    The things that you take for granted when you are in the motherland.. right wherein your umbilical cord is.. you begin to appreciate when you are overseas..Actually your perspective changes entirely..
    I hope to fulfil my dad’s wish of traveling to mana pools.
    I thoroughly enjoyed this..❤️

    Thank you my guy. You are really doing a great job for my country and you are not even from Zimbabwe. Your enthusiasm was/is infectious as I watched as I have been the diaspora for 20+ years I managed to convince my adopted family here to come with me . Harare was disappointing as usual, and you were crafty enough to avoid disparaging the whole country. Thank you so much

    Thanks for showcasing my home country's natural beauty and historical ruins. Our ancestors were prolific stone masons. I hope you tried out some Zambezi lager, you can't leave without trying the local dorps. As for the traffic, there's an $80 interchange on the road out of Harare and therefore you were using detour routes. It's going to be another 8 months of construction. I'm surprised you didn't run into any snakes
