you guys are more concentrated on Joburg, halla at me if you need visit some of the awasome place in Pretoria, North west province, Mpumalanga, Free state, limpopo ect there's a lot lot more
I wish they would change those colonizers names to Afrakan names.
Thank you for this beautiful video on our stunning country! One of the best places in the world and so much more advanced than so many 1st world countries.
Anyone speaking positive about Africa got my respect..love from Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
Asante sana love from 🇿🇦
Yeah
Ìì
Thank you Irene. Nda ku penda sana!! Hope I said it right!.😂 Kenya is most definitely on my next to visit country.🇰🇪🇿🇦
My Kenyan sister, SA loves Kenya and I definitely plan on visiting there one day.
Fun fact: I speak Setwana, I have a Zulu speaking friend, Xhosa speaking friend and a Pedi speaking friend and we mostly communicate in our respective languages and we understand each other.
When South Africans speak sometimes, one sentence can comprise of about 3 of our 11 official languages.
I always find that fascinating 😁
That's South Africa for you 👌🏾
And your name is Thembekile . 😂

I've been to South Africa three times and I encourage other black Americans to travel. South Africa is a beautiful country. What I never done there is drive. LOL.... it seem like a big challenge to drive on the opposite of the road. I took an Uber or hotel shuttle. Next time I will rent a car and try driving on that side.
Doing it the other way around, for us in SA, driving in Europe and America is a bit challenging for the first two days, you have to conciously think about your driving and different traffic patterns etc.. After that you find it becomes normal very quickly.
It's not a big deal, after 2 days you should be alright. Im an African American who works in BMW in Rosslyn Pretoria so I been in SA for the past 3 years but going home every 3 months, I love SA in general
@@memezeus2323 respect one love from st Paul MN
I am South African and know most of the places you have shown and I must say your videos have had me step outside of myself and realize that our country is really great. Our country is a home. Thank you for this
It’s the best
I used to long to move to The US, but not anymore because of how beautiful and homely our country is through Americans eyes. I'm starting to appreciate our organised mess.🎉
We were in SA this past Christmas and New Year. In the last 20 years we have visited SA about 12 times. Visited the mall of Africa for the first time as well. I'm very familiar with Sandton, never leave Joburg without visiting that area. We have visited almost every game reserve along the East coast from Northern KwaZulu-Natal to Pietermaritzburg. Did the Mpumalanga day trip and visited Dullstroom, Pilgrims Rest, Bourke's Luck Pothole, Graskop and stayed over at Kruger for two days before heading back to Joburg and then driving back to Maritzburg.
MY2NDM3 so you enjoyed yourself!!! It’s awesome right
Woohoo.
I live in Pietermaritzburg, glad you enjoyed your stay ✨
Please visit Taung Skull, Small Heaven and Taung Dam when you visit South Africa again
Have you been to Cape Town?
Canadian in Joburg for a long time, thanks for this video
❤
Damn I'm a South Africa in Canada 😭
No disrespect to my other African countries but south Africa🇿🇦 is that one country that is a great reminder to black people that they don't need to go to Europe states or British countries ext and so on this country is just amazing
Five star for me ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ in my opinion
Facts
True but I wish some of us could be more humble and respect each other and our fellow Africans , and not be so ignorant
@@zozibiningqula3316 facts we are all Africans after all
They must come here instead?
@@pmambongwe8640 true sisi pumla
I’m looking at this mall, it suddenly hit me, that I have never in all my life been to a mall where there is predominantly black people in it😳 it looks absolutely beautiful! I would want to one day be there live and direct. It may be inspiring for me.
Lots of first like that can be had here in SA
Feel safe
That’s how I felt when I went to the mall in Ghana I couldn’t get over that everyone looked like me.
Come!!! Every black person on earth owes themselves a trip to Africa
What a good feeling😊
And south Africa have the most beautiful woman in the world I am lucky I married one😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😁😁😁😁🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇨🇩🇨🇩🇨🇩🇨🇩🇨🇩🇨🇩

@@taliaog1 Were the hell did i say that? are you mad?
@@thabisomaila8095 You said cap when the person said that South Africa has the most beautiful woman in the world 🤦♀️
You know you've been in South Africa for a while, when you use terms like Joburg, Jozi, Woolies etc 😆
Lol, they are now officially South Africans. 😅
@@_theerealnono_7694 😄 definitely
Expecially woolies
Sooo true
Chap chap
I'm from the US and got to visit SA in 2019. I miss Woolies terribly!
😂 😂 😂 Not you missing Woolworths... Please 😭😭😭😂
@@thandomoshani1415 What do you mean? Woolworths has very good lasagna. I'm 13 and will miss Woolies for that
Next time when you come here we want you to eat from from the hood, skopo, archaar, magwinya and maotwana.
Did you have to get a yellow fever shot to go there?
You guys need to start coming to the hood it's just fun
As a South African, I love your content.
I hear that South Africa is a very beautiful country. I hear very good things about it.
It always has been a great country,,,, just like every state there are dark sides. Then media focuses on the bad things
Mall of Africa in South Africa is very great looking I am proudly South african
The question is when are you coming to see us? We would be happy to have you here atleast for 90 days, then you can decide whether or not you staying.
When he said 70 degrees my jaw dropped then i realised he meant farenhiet LOL
Would have been melting haha
I also got confused for a bit there
😂😂
Must be American
We Americans don't understand Celsius at all. If he had said it's 21 degrees we would have been like "That's freezing!" Lol To us anything lower than 38 is like literally freezing. 40-55 is cold 55 -74 is cool. 75-85 is Warm and above 85 hot. Depending on who you talking to. lol
I miss South Africa so much. I've been to that mall twice while visiting there. I can't wait to get back there, and actually buy property.
When u coming back brother
Where are you looking to buy? I know some locals who want to sell.
You’re welcome Sir
Come with your family and be a permanent resident 🇿🇦💪
@@zodwavilakazi it’s just me and I will be there in TWO WEEKS… I’m so excited to get back to my beloved SA
I'm proud to have been the team that constructed (WBHO) Mall of the North............
Khumbudzo Nemukula I know this company we may do a viddy on that location as soon as I find it
Am glad to see an African name. Big up
South Africa is the country related to the combination of the gods, the most beautiful nature, land, humanism, women, men and children. This land is unique in the world and stands for the rainbow nation where all colours can shine.
And cultures, we indeed a special country.
I am a Kenyan and l love south Africans ♥️♥️♥️
I was born and raised here in South Africa and also have a CZcams channel. I love that you're doing videos on our wonderful country. I live in Centurion and love it here. Mall of Africa is one of my favorites. You should do a video on Menlyn on Maine. It has the most beautiful statues in the piazza and Old Town Italy restaurant is the best you'll ever go to 😉
Big Up
Better watch them statues closely , before they get pulled down by the "cancel" and "woke" community .
What you guys are doing is much needed. Err time I type South Africa into CZcams search engine, all I got was crime videos. I am planning a vacation in October. I sent you an email. Holla back bro
That's unfortunate. If you'd like to check out more videos that showcase driving around South African roads, specifically in Johannesburg -- check out the following channels, *Paul McGavin* and *Rahul Sharma* right here on CZcams. They have good driving around Johannesburg videos. You'll get a feel of what it's like and how the place looks (infrastructure wise).
Imanathi Mlunguzi you are right! It’s such a big shame how they try to cast negative shadow on beautiful mama africa
We was here in 2010 it was the best time ever
Tired of that WS propaganda
Its because our infrastructure is world class and we keep on expanding and I believe the powers that be wants to take over our country that's why they advertise us as crime ridden and xenophobic.
What you mentioned at about 8:50 is one of the best things in SA. The people. You can have authentic and easy conversations with random people and become friends just like that.
How nice it must be for any African-American to go and enjoy life back home where you fit in just right.
Thanks for showing me around SA on video. Much appreciated
South Africans love you guys so much😭😭😭Thank so much for promoting out country🙏🙏
As a South African, it was a pleasure viewing this through your eyes. Just subscribed, now let me go binge watch the rest of your content
Thanks keep that data use down
@@TRSA How are you finding the data prices here compared to the US?
Nova Light i think it’s comparable to the US...I prepay never have a problem I’m in wifi a lot at home...I like prepaid vs a contract
I did the same when I discovered the channel.
@TherealSouthAfrica you are doing the most i must say.
I'm currently living in CPT but home is Limpopo. I never seen anyone showcasing South Africa the way you do. This feels good & i would like to thank you for your efforts.
Appreciate the vote of confidence from everyone. Nice to see foreigners loving our country as much as we love it.
Please be aware that they are not foreigners. Its time for you to open your heart to the fact that all people donning melanin are your relatives.
Mark and Tasha are not foreigners but AA in South Africa who loves this country and have chosen to both show case it to the world and make it their home. They are us we are them.
Woolies is the best. I do my groceries there and it's worth every last cent. Their produce is always so fresh.
I'm here because I saw your interview on the news. I just love this content about my country, just the perspective you bring is absolutely beautiful and I feel well represented🙌🏾
Mpumalanga, God's window & Kruger national park. Take us there.
South Africa is built up to first world standard, the media is kinder salty sometimes
Say first world and third world in one country, where by white and Indian people in first world and few black people in first and the rest of black people are in third world
Change is coming
@@TRSA This response, i felt it
@@TRSA change is indeed coming brother. Imagine if people could say something positive on the internet for one day.
@@mthokozisixaba2137 its true i dnt wanna lie change has been happening there in south Africa i can see it here in my small village n small town ...
.
The only problem is that its soo slow
Wow, this is really Beautiful guys. I have up to 3 American friends who came to visit SA, all of them separately. They all ended up moving and living in SA.
When you visit that place u just find that awesome sweet spot. And truly no one is watching or sees u differently. U dont stick out at all. Very beautiful*
What a relief to see this video. There is some video's on CZcams that was clearly made to put RSA in a bad light globally. Thx again man
Jacobus I have learnt to stay away from such channels forever and focus on positive ones like this one.
The thing is Hope i don't go around CZcams looking for those kind of video's. You accidentally open them up and only then realize what you watching. I am sure that's what happened to a lot of people.
Woolworths has always been the best grocery store, as well the best quality baby clothing, their restaurants have also always been high quality. I remember years ago their staff had to be at work an hour early so as to have their hair and make up done professionally, their uniformed staff looked spiffy at all times, together with the best customer service. Thanks for making me yearn even more for Wonderlike Suid Afrika, Kaapstad. Liefde almal, bly veilig, tot siens.
So nice to see you all having the best time in our country and showing your followers what it is really about. Much love! (Byron from Cape Town).
Thank you for your positive reviews of SA! We are blessed to have you in SA 🇿🇦 🙌🏾
I am trying to convince my wife to come to South Africa you guys are amazing
Hey I work at the Woolworths Mall of Africa, next time you here please hala 🥰
Eish Zama me with a job at woolies
As south Africans we tend be be so negative about everything here, so it's nice to see this
Same as black Americans
Man, this is so helpful in appreciating our land. This is paradise mostly.
Your south african content is appealing. Well done.
I love the audio and video quality here. And above all, I love that you're focusing on the positives in this country. This is the reason you're blending in so well... You want the best for this country. Keep it up!
I loved the video and seeing The Mall Of Africa. I plan to come and would love to have you arrange the itinerary for me and my husband. He is finally onboard after seeing all your wonderful videos. It will be our first trip home. Blessings
I loved reading this. Stay blessed sister
Another great video, we love you guys, and thanks for showcasing our beautiful land to the rest of the world!
More to come!
I live in Jozi but I have never been to the Mall of Africa, How embarrassing, LOL, Thank you for the tour. Great video though. I Double Like!!!
Bro trust me ther are people who live in Jozi that have never been to Sandoton...Jozi is too big and has everything
Thanks Guys. You are like a breathe of fresh air in showcasing the real South Africa. Thanks again
These videos are put together nicely.
It feels like Mall of America besides number of stores! 🙏 😊 for sharing!
Im living in new zealand and guess what once you tell people you from SA you kind off regret it when you hear their negative remarks about our beautiful land we belong to!
Tell them to go to hell.
@@elixir7054 ofcourse
Looks normal and a sense of relief, I am tired of Bablyon America.
Beautiful to see black people living their lives and being in peace. This is what it is all about, why are we Americans making ourselves miserable trying to save a country that is sinned to being with and can't learn their lessons. Let's try to enjoy our best lives by investing and living in a peaceful country.
Come home.
@Red Carded I agree but at the same time, it is said under prophecies that Babylonian empires are doomed to fail. Black Americans spent years trying to warn America about their sins and they don't listen. At this point Black Americans need to just focus on themselves, leave and enhance their quality of life.
I am a white person living in this awesome country my whole life. Half of the white people left after 1994 after apartheid. I have been in many countries but there is no place like home. We have a lot of challenges, but you can be anywhere and start a conversation with any person black or white. It is normal to greet people as you pass them even they are we are all strangers. This is part of black culture. The open verbal and physical racesism and profiling of black people in America is appalling to all of us to witness. Al the ‘Karens’😄 In South Africa you will not get away with that. We call it hate speach and two white ladies landed in jail by just calling nack peole names. People get away with criminal behaviour in the form of overt racesism in America because they know they cam get away with it. My heart breaks for African Americans and other minority groups. We also have a lot of racesism here, but because we have a law called hate speach. You see very little open display of that. We need our brothers and sisters from America to come back to your home soil and help building this beautiful continent. You will never have to teach your children to fear the cops or being attact by whites. Thank you for a good side of my country❤️
@@rinanorden4878 thank you Rina black people have suffered from this issue I hope one day people will be able understand one another hopefully!!
This channel is growing. . It is well deserved I love it.
Wow u deserve my SUB thanks for showing our Country on the positive side we love you and your family you are welcome to your Motherland Africa.
Can't get enough of your videos!
You're looking good I really appreciate your video thanks for sharing once again welcome back on the continent. South Africa have good roads network very beautiful country and people.
I absolutely love this video lol watch it over and over again I like seeing everyday life it kinda reminds me of Atlanta just blacker lol
I'm from South Africa, and was suprised to see how black Atlanta was when I got there in 2012. And these were black people who actually looked like me, chocolate skin, not mixed race . I felt like I was home.
@@africanandproud6792 My ex girlfriends sister lives in Atlanta and she said Felicia Mabuza is the unofficial ambassador of South Africa. Later made a friend who also lived in Atlanta with her South African boyfriend. So I'm definitely starting in Atlanta when I go stateside.
Doing a better job showcasing South Africa than our Media does
I'm SAm currently living in the United States. I love and miss my country. Hope you thoroughly enjoy our country. Thanks for a fantastic video on my country. I miss SAn food though. 😜🥰Lots'a love
i'm south African and i'm sad because the first time i'm seeing this mall is right know in this video💔
Real South Africans Thanks for showing interest in our country and loving it the way you do ...We all are Africans
This is just a taste of the Hometown Glory for me...🙌🏾
Very well done!! The good Dr really put effort into her camera control and using the stabilizer controls. It was very impressive. The edit and its incorporation of high quality still pictures alongside B role footage was really grate. I loved the closing, and that outfit was absolutely beautiful on you Doc. It matched the display in the background.
This was really awesome!! I enjoyed it.
Love note: "Please see if you can bump up the frame rate on the recording devices to reduce image drag when doing fast panning or movements".
I look forward to the next video.

I love woolies I use work there when was in high school n tertiary. Customer service their middle name. 🇿🇦🇿🇦
I recently read an article on Lebanese leaving Lebanon due to the economic crisis and corruption. They are heading to west Africa especially Ivory Coast, Senegal, Ghana etc in search of a better life and economic opportunities. They are even sending remittances back home to Lebanon in order to help their families who are in poverty. It’s time for us as a people to wake up and claim our heritage.✊🏿
How is that related to the video and South Africa?
I just discovered your channel, it is awesome. I'm a marketing consultant in Jozi and few months ago I was tasked with promoting a book adopted by government here in SA to build a new city called Luther City which is based on African American history. It has a planned shopping square called Malcom square and a park called Rosa park. The idea is to encourage African Americans to relocate here while making sure they dont miss the culture and history they built in the US. The President mentioned the book and its contents in the recent State of the nation address. It was one of my favorite projects. I love to see this, South Africa, and Africa really has potential if we work it while enjoying it.
We would like to see the government here get involved as well....African Americans do want to visit....let’s make it work...have you seen our website?
By the way what is the name of the book? We would love to assist SA Government in this project
@@TRSA I will most definitely take a look at the website. The name of the book is "New Cities, New Economies" by Dr Tshilidzi Ratshitanga. I believe he studied in the US, and that's were he got introduced more to African Americans and the culture.

@Glenda Stevens It's a large retail chain known for their quality products -- especially the food, catering for the organic produce market as well.

Bowyaphi😅🤷🏽♂️😂
Please remind us to like your videos bc we be forgetting time to time and this is great content.
This is beautiful. You fit right in King & Queen. Incredible interview on Newz Room Afrika. We're usually a talk-shop on such and to see you guys actually do your bit to combat the decades worth of negative propaganda, just to continue to disconnect you to the land of your ancestors, is inspiring. We tear up for this side too for Trayvon Martin, Tamir Rice, Sandra Bland, George Floyd and millions of Black Americans (people that look like me too by the way) murdered by the police every year. Life is complicated for the Black soul everywhere. Colonization and Apartheid is still crippling millions of Africans and South Africans - heavily. So to see Black beauty anywhere about anything and anywhere Black is always welcome.
As a South African 🇿🇦 in England 🏴 thanks for your content. Love seeing my country. Miss it a lot hope you are keeping well. Just subscribed ❤️
Hi guys I'm a south African I love your channel watch it every time I have time, and love you put SA out there keep it up. Much love.. Hope meet you when I'm in Jozi
You’re an amazing Family keep up the good work, we’re in need of people like you🙏🏿❤️
I liked this video coz it doesnt compare SA with any African country like what west african youtubers like doing. SA is in a class of its own on the African continent
And you just did what West African CZcamsrs do. What a paradox!
Film Think. You are so silly.
You right 💯 Im so over the CZcams's that's always want the followers to fight each other
And you just did that, showing your hatred against other African countries

Proudly South African🥰Love this video watching from UK
love u guys,first time watching your show and definetly hooked in you.
It's sounds like the blending in has been your biggest "relief" or accomplishment, for lack of a better word/s, and I understand that completely. The rapper Joe Cole visited SA a few years ago, and his biggest impression was seeing massive billboards displayimng people who looked exactly like him or his friends, and advertising some of the worlds' biggest brands. That got me really thinking lol.
Africa is your homeland indeed.
J.Cole and I are from the same place Fayetteville NC that’s crazy
I am absolutely addicted to your content on *SA* and *Joburg* to be exact. I would love to see more driving tour videos of this amazing city, when possible. I'm awaiting for everything to reopen for my trip....🇺🇸🇿🇦
For driving around south Africa follow Paul Mcgavin
@@ScissorN Agreed. I recommend Paul McGavin and Rahul Sharma CZcams channels for driving around Johannesburg videos.
I love it when you shoot your videos in landscape mode.
been seeing these thumbnails thinking your just another SA CZcamsr. I'm enjoying your channel.

If you're still here during Spring, check out the groenkloof hiking trail, or Walter Sisulu Botanical Gardens. The farmers market is dope as well
The best thing to buy at Woolies: Kingklip. The best fish you’ll ever eat.
