    I used to travel a lot. Now, it has become impossible because of several health issues and that's exactly why I love your videos so much. They enable me to just lean back and watch and dream about those places even though I won't be able to visit them myself. The filming is perfect, the music adds precisely to the atmosphere and all that adds up to why I want to thank you for those clips. And don't let anyone talk you into changing the intro. It's a perfect combination of nostalgia and the apprehension of something new and exciting.

    This is by far the best video I've watched of all your videos. The music is right, the property mixed in with the wild life safari and the food - it's all coming together beautifully. A wonderful excursion and I've always been wanting to visit SA since I worked for a SA carrier here in Europe. SA (safari as well as Capetown) is on my bucket list.

    Heavenly place. What a privilege to see both the rhinos and baby leopard. It would be interesting to see you visit and compare some of the high end Tanzanian lodges, especially in the huge Southern reserves. There is a much greater sense of wilderness and closeness to nature lodges are still very comfortable and beautiful. No glass windows or baths though.

    Absolutely stunning and the best lodge I have ever seen or stayed in while in South Africa. The menu slightly disappointed as too much of a European fine dining where I love trying all the different game and local fare dishes. My only slight disappointment otherwise breathtaking.

    This might seem like a silly question but if there are no fences around the resort, who's to say that an animal won't sneak up behind you while you're sipping coffee on the patio? I think I'd be a bit paranoid :)

    • @calvinsylveste8474
      @calvinsylveste8474 7 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      Past experiences gives them some idea as to animal behaviors, but wild animals are unpredictable and there is some small risk you agree to take in doing this. The guides are armed to further reduce your chances of death, but it will never be zero.
      You should worry more about the dangers while driving to work every day rather than doing this activity on holiday.

      First two replies answers my curiosity too as Khanh but I would still be in an enclosed vechile. I think the part of this kind of animal viewing is the excitement of taking that little chnace, Drake mentions. That s why people do that.
      Also we were worried for the guy sitting on the hood. 😃 We wondered if he was holding a gun or somehing. Also we noticed the driver was a serious photographer 😄 ... Great video...thx.
