    What a a gentleman a conservationist. I am deeply honoured to have met this giant in Conservation. My family is wel steeped in Conservation with my father, the late JohnMartens whom led the charge against sand mining in the iSimangaliso Wetland Park then the St. Lucia area, and a brother whom has led a global lifelong career in nature Conservation nd currently MD of Cape Fynbos Conservation Trust. So proud of this man and his achievements in Conservation in Eswathini. Bayete! Ted Reilly, siyabonga!!!!!

    I love the video. King Sobhuza II and Ted Rieley did an amazing job. IT's rooted in the Swazi way of life. Life is not complete in this country without the wildlif which is intricately linked to clans that make up emaSwati. Most are totems... without them there are no emaSwati.

    I am definitely disappointed on the short trip of the beautiful country, yet happy to see the Kingdom Land of eSwatini. Mate where do you get the music playlist? If you allowed to add the playlist on the description, please do.

    Awesome Dirk. Great excuse to avoid me and in all honesty far better 😂😂😂😂
    I’ve only traveled through Swaziland but it looks like I need to visit there more too. Amazing. Thank you for sharing

    All your trips you guys do do you need to have a 4x4 or can you use a Toyota 4x2 diff lock

    We were there with my family a few weeks ago. The camps and parks are pretty quiet. It's amazing how people will flock in their thousands to Kruger and camp with 100's of people and Eswatini there's almost no one.
    Many of the 4x4 guys in SA seem to like driving on the tar roads 😏🤣

    Why spoil the natural wildlife sounds, with recorded music ?

    • @lionridds
      @lionridds Před 10 měsíci +2

      I think the idea is that we go and experience the sounds for ourselves...It's a vlog...For that reason 😂

    Thank you for the video, but stop glorifying the white man too much. Africans have lived in Africa for a while and taken care of their wildlife, both flora & fauna. It didn’t take one white man to conserve all that. Respect Africa and Africans in general please
