- In this series of videos we spend 61 days overlanding through Namibia, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana. In the process we drive 12315km, visit 16 National Parks and have amazing wildlife sightings along the way, including a number of species we see for the first time.
In this first episode we visit the Caprivi strip (Zambezi region) in Namibia, staying at Ngepi on the banks of the Kavango River, at Livingston Camp at Nkasa Rupara National Park, and at Mbezi campsite which we use as a base to explore the Kwando area.
We see lots of Hippos, Warthogs, Reedbuck, Sable, Kudu, Zebra, Red Lechwe and oodles of Elephants.

Thanks - very professionally put together - you have re-ignited my ‘wander’-lust. Well done!
Many thanks! Glad I could help getting you fired up again 😊
was there as a soldier lovely places
Yes, indeed. We passed Fort Doppies and the Buffalo and Omega bases.
Lovely memories - I used to guide for Nambwa lodge, and take my guests everyday to Horseshoe Bend. Those look like tawny eagles to me.
Thanks!

How are you enjoying the Wildtrak? I just bought my V6? What would you recommend irt upgrades?
I find the suspension very good but a bit softly sprung.
We are quite enjoying the Wildtrak. Here is a link to a video on my initial thoughts th-cam.com/video/Y_p8sapjtOk/w-d-xo.html The built-in Tracks4Africa navigation and the surround camera system were very useful in the bush. And on the open road the adaptive cruise control was a great convenience. The only vehicle upgrade so far was the installation of a long-range fuel tank. We bought the 2 litre - mostly for reasons of cost and fuel economy, but consumption goes up a LOT in thick sand - more so than with our previous 3.2l (which was always heavy on fuel, but consumption changed little in sand and when towing a trailer). I would be interested what your real world fuel consumption with the V6 is.The suspension held up well, but was not optimal for the load we were carrying, so we bottomed out a few times. When the time comes to replace the shocks I will probably do a suspension upgrade and shift the suspension trade-off between empty and heavily loaded more to the heavily loaded side.
@@overlandersa thanks for the prompt reply...
I've had a few vehicles in the past years...
2018
I too had the 3.2 5cyl Wildtrak after a software upgrade never got less than 10km/L.
2021 Bought the 2.0L Raptor was highly impressed by the comfort but its load capability as well as power for the big chassis made me sell it within 3 months of ownership. Note to self, test drive before buying...
V6 Amarok Extreme 2021 Model (with Porsche motor) what an amazing bakkie installed bilstein B6 and still have this to date. Open roads (with stage 1+) software does 11km/L never seen less than 8.5km/L hard driving or towing.
To finally answer your question (Im a car fanatic) im Very Disappointed in the V6 Wildtrak fuel consumption , (my Wife has got the new 2023 Everest 2.0 BiTurbo 4x2, we get about 750km on the tank). The V6 i really need to drive slowly (125km/h) to get 8.5km/L average over the complete ownership aince new 13,500km I'm now on Pump average (must say the computer is very accurate) 7.6km/L best I've gotten out of tank 680km, average 580km-630km
The acceleration in the 2.0 Everest, I must say Im very impresses the motor is very nippy to 80km/h but when towing I just love and appreciate the V6 power and would always since owning that 2.0 RAPTOR and V6 Amarok choose power over fuel consumption....
Trust this answers your question?
