The gift of this trip for your children is a memory that will never get a flat tyre, a flat battery, fade away or get old. It will be forever.
Memories are much more important than...things. I salute you both!
Absolutely
That's what I told my ex when she cleaned me out in the divorce, she can't take my memories.
So happy you show your kids the real magical things and right pace of life
My wife and I have watched almost every episode since we first found you 6 weeks ago. We dont watch movies anymore, we watch you guys. So inspired we've now purchased a 22.6ft van and in the middle of upgrading to a new 4WD. Paying attention to every detail on what you guys use so we can mimic, that way we know the product has been trialed and tested. We want to create the same memories for our 2 kiddies and see our great country. Hope to one day see you guys on the road. Thank you for sharing
One of the best travel videos
Cheers mate
One of the best episodes yet!!!!! My husband even took an interest!! Best REALITY reality show ever!!!
Thanks again for bringing your adventures into our lives! Love from Atlantic Canada!!
Gibby Up 👍 Always look forward to Sundays and catching up with your adventures 🐟⛰🔥✨
Thanks so much
I just love your family and relationships you all have together. I’m sure there is the hard times but you can definitely see the love
Sophie Jugovac thanks mate
You are such a compatible couple..... what a BLESSING with 3 lovely little mites😊
Thankyou
bec is a great dancer andy
I did this trip about 30 years ago just before we had kids with basic 4wd and tents. I think we are about 5 years off from doing it again with a bit more luxury this time..
It was one of the greatest trips I have done and after watching this can't wait for the next time. love your work guys.
Glen S thanks mate
This trip looks to me like it's up there on the faves list. Put a smile on our face.
Great trip
There are two amazing reasons why I watch your vids religiously.......
Dirt Therapy Down Under and they are?
The kids are so well behaved doing long drives
This is one of those feel-good videos... nice dad, nice wife, nice children. Oh, the scenery is alright :-)
The spuds are the best, fry them in melted butter and diced garlic is amazing 👍👍
So good!
Give it a go I love it so yummy
Oh yeah i also forgot a sprinkle of italian herbs as well just makes it so tasty 👍👍
Beautiful Australia makes parents happy which makes kids happy.
Happy parents make kids happy which makes beautiful Australia.
Happy kids make Australia beautiful which makes parents happy.
Whichever direction it is it'll be valid.
I am by no means religious, but thank god you are back!🙏🙏😁
Craig Harbinson cheers mate 🍺
So happy to see we can go to the cape without having to do all those crazy river crossings on the Telegraph Track. I’d seriously crossed the cape off the itinerary until watching your video.
Karyn Duel glad you enjoyed it mate 👌🍺
Good to see ya cooking on the coals, not flames
👍👍🍻🍻
Justin & Fam, just want to thank you for these vids.
We stuck down here in Vic are desperate to get out, your channel keeps me and I’m sure others sane.
Outback_Touring thanks bud 🍺👊
🌺 Amazing experience, just love your country, thanks for taking us along... here in England, we say ‘cor! Get that down ya neck’, and that’s in the posh parts! 🌺
down ya neck!!😂😂
Truly, is there any better feeling than a croc,less coldy in a creek. Brilliant vid again guys, cheers🍺🍺🍺
michael seal goes alright🍺🍺💦
Can you add some more of the wildlife you see. You must come across a lot of random wildlife on your journeys and camps. Also like the way you get the kids involved in everything. So much better than sitting them in front of a TV or video game.
@Chopper Royalty no don't have a David in the family

Dream trip. Roof top tent nearly finished , ready to go, caravan fixed. You Guys having fun, waiting for next episode.
mario manestar loving it!!
Good to see you come to your senses and got a Stone Stomper instead of those back window breaker screens!
Fran Baas yeah mate, it’s the best👍
Fricken great adventure & production, guys...I'm inspired!! What a happy little family...beautiful!
So much reminds me of our family trip around Australia twenty odd years ago. We did it tough-we only had a tent with our kids!
You two so pleasant to watch not dribble and winging about your kids like some could mention we’ve all brought our family up We have travelled Aussie also loved every minute of it habve followed you for months watch episodes again keep going
Hi Guys, Another great video. Just wanted to let you know if you dont already but DONT use your STONE STOMPER in the MUD. Just had a mate come back from north QLD and got caught in some rain, forgot to take off the stomper and it filled with Mud and then tore off and got completely destroyed. Have fun and go the Maroons.
We sit up in bed, a cuppa in hand and watching you guys on the telly. Very entertaining, and inspirational in planning our own ‘Big Lap’ for next year. Keep the vids coming, we love em!
Greg Payet cheers
Liking the videos guys, new to channel, starting the research for our wander around Aus, very informative, like the no bull way you do the videos !!
Cheers mate, glad to
Have you along 🍺
Absolutely stunning what amazing country you live in that's how every kid should be brought up 👍🏴
Shaun Mccaw absolutely
Bloody brilliant!
Gypsy Rover Adventures cheers
Love watching the vlogs legends!!
Those poor horses at the beginning look awfully skinny, hope they’ve got some good feed coming their way soon 🤍
Just sitting at Finch hatten, thought I would try Becs Idea of baby spuds in a can, in the Ziggy, she should be on master chef, fantastic they will now be a staple in the pantry. Thanks Bec 😉🤔
cookdm65 glad you enjoyed em mate!! Bloody good hey
Thanks Justin and Bec (and kids)- another awesome video :) Can't wait to see more of your Cape York adventures!
Sarah Phillips cheers mate
FANTASTIC! We have missed you guys, this is the place we want to go when this blasted virus has gone away. Now in lockdown here for a month!. We love our sunrises and sunsets we find them very relation, here in Norfolk we have beautiful sunrises and sunsets also...Nice to see Jack catching fish Justin, take note!! We agree about the tinned potatoes, one of our pleasures for some time. Anyway take care, looking forward to Cape York. :) Roy & Cheryl (UK)
Another great video... hot-tip #101 - Season steaks with Salt, Cracked Pepper & Garlic Powder before vac sealing and even a budget steak will be epic come time to cook and eat! works even if freezing! keep up the good work!
mattson perfect, thanks for the tip
We watched it, and discovered new places, hubby wanted to watch more, told him he'll have to wait another week and he recognised the tree at Coen, he said thats our tree....thanks for sharing...
Sandra Watkins cheers
What an amazing episode, can’t wait to see what Bec does for us in the next episode. She is such an entertaining girl 😂😂😂, sorry Bec for laughing . Justin you are so informative with everything you talk about, you are a natural legend 👍
Pauline Dunlop thanks mate
What a ripper of an ep! Absolutely loved the vibe cos we were super pumped to watch this ep after waiting so long!
Cheers
I first travelled the road from Cairns to Weipa in 1979. In those days there were gates to open and close, and we camped at the Stewart River the first night. Over the years we watched the road develope into
the, mostly, beautiful road it is now.
Great videos, thanks guys. But one thing - when giving an apple to an animal, just stick it under your boot and crush it a bit - I've seen animals choke on whole apples.
True!! Good tip Thankyou
Hey guys & kids great to see you again have missed watching you lot cant wait for part 2 take care.
Top video tiger 🐅
Fantastic footage and great info !! So excited to see you guys back and heading for more adventure .... 😃😃
Thanks mate
Hey guys if the toilets a bit average smelling try changing the chemicals for Nappy San it will break down what it's supposed to but not kill the good bacteria leaving no Smell
Redemption tackle vamp squid getting inhaled by that jack !! Well done Justin good fish!
Those pre cleaners are terrible. The best thing to get is the Donaldson cyclonic air filter.... Also, FRESH AIR is the way to go on dusty roads.. Creates a positive pressure in the cabin, thus pushing out dust.
Good ole ringers rest, I use to live next door, there’s a freshwater river out the back that’s good for a swim an pyre tru much flows all year 👍🏻
Great spot
You are a lover❤❤❤
Your video gave me enough positivity for my day my friend. Thank you 🙏
AlfaMega A enjoy 👍
Thats some serious gear mate. Enjoy the North.
Good way to spend a Sunday arvo👍
Enjoy legend

We did the tip from Melbourne 2 up on a motorbike it was fantastic 11,5000 km in total 😲
Fruit bat falls were my favourite ❤️
First time watching these videos, very interesting..!
Very good episode. Interesting that October is so quiet. That sounds good to me.
Wes Venter perfect

Another great Vid guys, thanks for all of the info you give your followers. We have been in Darwin for about 7weeks and hitting W.A in a couple of weeks when the borders open, so it was good to watch some travel on the road.
Cheers and safe travels, can't wait for your next vid.
Anton & Tania

Hi yes its an awesome trip i come from far nth qld we did trip to the Cape in June 1991 as it is alot cooler then.. Plus road was less travelled those days lol so had to rough it more 😂. But yeah you need a few weeks to really enjoy it totally.. Lived on tablelands n have done the hot air balloon ride, took family up as an easter Surprise 😂 in a basket.. Up north is heaven...great youtube channel guys 👍
An area I dearly want to take my misso' and squids. One day hopefully! Thanks for the insight into the area, and all the 'hot' tips as always. Keep up the good work!
Boydy Boyd cheers mate
I'm in. Cape York should be on everyone's bucket list.
Safe travels gang.👍🍺
Thanks 👍
Very nice.
We just ordered our Opus 2 camper on the weekend to take to the Cape next year. Can't wait!!
Hi guys love your videos. We stayed at camp #4 @ Hahn Crossing, my kids fished at your camp site and were blessed I guess with the presence of the croc that you guys would have seen, he popped his head up under my daughter to check her and out and then sized up my son.. he figured he couldn't really get a bite but he made himself very well known and showed his enormous body off to us for a good 10mins even went down and waded in front of our camp site for a while before disappearing. It was a quiet an experience!
Love what you guys are doing!!
Great seeing you guys, we’ve missed ya!
Awesome video. Very jealous right now. Enjoy guys.🤘🤘
Thanks for an enjoyable video. Great photography and , in particular, the drone work.
Ron Hughes thanks mate
Hey mate, those pre filters do very little in the way of fine dirt, they're great for bugs and bigger particles but a great trick to those is getting one of the misses stockings and stretching it over the filter when you arent oiling the prefilters as it stops the very fine dust and also give you a slighter increase in vacuum which in turn give you slightly better boost on sandy surfaces as higher speeds. I use the little sockette stockings for the feet as they are perfect on carbs and are easier to dust off once you remove them.
Svenson Lord that’s great info thanks mate💪💪
Yoo Hoo. 😀👍
Giddy up
funny enough, my cousin and I build a little dam on the eastern side of the creek, back in 2005. When we took the old 60 up there. Apparently it's still there today.
i never knew you could buy potato's in a can thats awesome
glad your back worried keep safe
Vegemite on toast covered with avocado YUM
"As they say in England, Bon appatit" 🤣😅
Nearly Leha, but more like 'Bon happytit' as us expats will say!
Cant wait for part 2 and hopefully when the road is fully sealed I will venture up in my RV myself... Have fun in the Sun...
Kelvin Ring cheers mate
Before you board the jardine ferry put the rear van leveling legs pointing towards the front to save scraping the barge or bending legs
Another great video never ever boring
Ian Robinson thanks mate
Thanks for the car tips. It really help us when we travelling. We are really worrying about the dust and how it affecting the car and van.
The snorkel filter needs the oil to catch the dust. Won't catch much dust without it.
Who were the 12 miserable pricks to put a thumbs down......seriously........
Hoping to get to the cape next July/August. Keep up the great work.
Darrin Douglas ya win some ya lose some 🍺🍺
Epic that's all I can say and that rig is awesome
Adam Roberts cheers
@Justin surprised you don’t have yourself a set of tire deflators like the Staun Or Campboss ones. Makes deflating heaps quick and easy mate, check em out 👍
Davo yeah I’ve got em, but they are set to beach sand pressures👌
Another great video,and about bloody time Justin,was only thinking the other day ,can't wait to see you guys again , keep em coming 👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Omg 😱 that’s a beautiful 😍 nite sky 🌌 lots of stars ✨
A pet would seal the deal for the kids 😄🙀
Love your whole video series guys but this one especially because it's top of my bucket list. I also really like that you take the time to explain stuff like bush proofing the van and car and looking after the tyres, etc because it reinforces my discussions with the misso. If I had the coin, we would love to have your exact setup but for now I just got a 79 series and am building a camping trailer to help with dwelling out bush in comfort for longer. But your vids are keeping us inspired until then. Thanks
Pauls DIY Boredom Busters cheers mate!! Stoked your enjoying the vids
@@TripInAVan by the way we tried that rocky road your mob tried in one of your previous vids and loved it. Gonna have to get another couple kits for the pantry. Lol
Pauls DIY Boredom Busters so yum hey!!!
Excellent vid guys,sensational...by the way,the little finger mark is actually a Moses perch..yummy to eat as well though...I live in cairns and love the area👍👍👍
Great vid looking at aaa air box for our 200 not worth the dusting risk. we are were up that way in Sept beautiful area enjoy. Compressor fridge and fan on our van keeps that dust out .Cheers Ian
Nice episode Guys!!! Love your work...So stocked you have the life we all dream of! God bless your travels and family life from here on in...
