Great trip, Ed... Great footage... I also really like the fact that you're very appreciative of the immense privilege of experiencing the bush, landscape, sights & sounds of Kruger.
As a Saffer no longer in SA, we have to experience these through guys like you!
Many thanks...
Magic! Good video.. keeps getting better
Thanks Robert! I really appreciate the comments and support!
Good review Eddie,like the background music 👍
Maaaaaaaan, your KNP content is to die for. I haven’t been here in a year and a couple of months. Dying to go.
Thank you so much mate!
Awesome - keeps us going while we count down the months - 7 months to go. Thanks Ed.
Thank you so much!
Edward your videos are absolutely awesome , love every minute of all of them . To coin your phrase , totally next level 👌
Thank you Rodney!
hey Ed ...you just reminded me of Pretoriuskop..i went there in 2011 and yes the pool is the best and round around the rondavel very nice place with naughty monkeys in the summer mornings..
Brilliant as always, next level👌👌
Thank you for sharing.
Can not wait to see the Botswana video.
Thank you Piet!
Howzit Ed, great episode once again!!!!
Thank you so much mate!
Jock of the bushveld was my favourite book to read as a child, many fond memories. Thank you Edward for another amazing episode, they just keep getting better and better. The footage that you take of the wildlife is incredible and it makes one feel as if we are right there sitting next to you appreciating these moments. Wildlife sightings, African bush knowledge, landscape, cooking tips, the best chilled out music that is spot on each time, passion, great company and entertainment (Chris) and so much more...what more could one ask for. Looking forward to the next adventure.
Thank you so much for the amazing comment and for the constant support! It really makes a huge difference so thank you!
Breathtaking as usual Ed, thanks so much for these amazing trips down memory lane. Your passion and gratitude for the bush is such a blessing to witness, that's how it should be.
Thank you as always Kinette!
Oh Yeah there's a Ed on the loose in the Kruger 😆 absolutely brilliant Ed 👍👌✌🐺🐾
Thanks Herbert! Wish I was in the Kruger again ahahah
Hi Edward! Congrats from Brazil! This video was really really special! We really apreciate how you combine the natural sounds of nature with the background music. And that wild dog scene was just fantastic. They are also my favorites ones. Please, continue what you have been doing for us!
Thank you so much Murielly!
Thank you Edward for this magnificence.
Thank you Jesi!
Epic Edward awesome die wiltuin lyk mooi groen baie water en jou pot it is a winner

Thank you Rosa!
Magic. Well documented. Thanks for sharing, Ed.
Thank you Steve!
Yoh... another fantastic series, can't wait for your next adventure
Thank you Collin!
Great video 👍
Thanks Henk!
Missing Kruger so so much 😢 thanks Ed 👏🏻 👏🏻 and yes wild dogs round Pretorius Kop always special ✨
Thank you so much Karen!
Well done Ed, thanks for all the effort!
Thanks for the support Grant!
Leg of lamb, our family favorite. Yours looks wonderful, wish I could have been there to help you and Chris eat it. My latest trip has been postponed for a second year, but hopefully I will return to S.A. and Namibia in 2022 for another visit to paradise on Earth. Wonderful series young man, I enjoyed very much. There is nothing better than the African Bush. Cheers from Oregon, USA.
Thanks Peggy!
Another great video Edward. Love seeing the Pretoriuskop and Berg-en-Dal areas so lush and green. We love Berg because it’s the jumping off point for our favorite thing to do in Kruger which is the Wolhuter Wilderness Trail 😀
Thank you Joe!
Brilliant series Ed, so many amazing sightings. The camp shots really add to the stories you create, thank you very much for all the hard work fella. Looking forward to the camper rundown:D
Thank you Vik! The support means a lot!
Hi Ed, over the past two weeks I have just binge watched your videos, and thoroughly enjoyed them. I can't wait to get back to Africa again (from Australia), and you have fueled that desire more than a little. I love the relaxed pace, the music, scenery, wildlife, pretty much everything. Next level, eh! Now I've got my parents on the channel. Perfect for our Lockdown Number 6.
Keep those videos coming.
Hi Mark! Thank you so much for the amazing comment and kind words! Hopefully we will be out of this soon!
Just discovered your channel yesterday, and love your videos of wild Africa. The richness of life is just so amazing! You are doing your part to help preserve it. Sub'd immediately. Keep the content coming. Cheers from Louisiana, USA.
Thank you so much Frank! Really appreciate the sub and awesome comment!
Awsome!!! I am so glad you showed us the lamb potjie, I am definitely going to try making it. Noisy neighbors is always a bummer especially if you go to the bush to drink in the sounds. Love your video's can see your love for the bush in it🐾🐾
Thank you Amanda!
Ed your back ground music was spot on during the video.
Thank you so much! Music is always a tough one and impossible to always get right but thank you 🙏
Thank you for these great clips. Have a serious case of cabin fever with this covid and this really just hits the spot!
Thank you Janet!
Lekker Man, as someone called ED would say, next level!!
Thanks mate!
What an awesome trip, thanks for sharing! Plus it ended on a high note, great lion sighting and sounds on the last night, and of course the lamb poitjie!
Thank you so much David!
It is great to see what passion you have for KNP. As a fellow Kruger lover I miss the place and your videos has done such a great job in bringing Kruger to us. Love your work keep on doing it. Maybe one day Ill run into you at Nkumbe and share such a loveloy place with someone that feels the same about this peace of heaven. Great to see the veld so green. Mega likes all the way from Aus.
Thank you so much for the awesome comment Andre! Hope to see you out there one day!
Excellent series Ed, I really enjoyed it!
Thanks Stephen!
Amazing video Bud🤙
Thanks bud!
Really good series. Seen awesome places to visit soon. Thanks bud
Thank you Jacques!
Awesome content. Love it!!!
Thank you Carmen!
Fab...great.....love your video......monica -george
This is excellent. You are developing your own signature filming and editing style which I find impressive. I have explored around Berg en Dahl, fantastic scenic vistas. I too can't wait to get back to Kruger. It is another world, how it was 100,000 years ago. Africa is the homeland of the entire human race, black, white, Asian, Indian, we all started here. Perhaps this is why the African wilderness resonates with everyone.
Thank you Mike! The constant comments and support means a lot!
great video, as always! Congratulations!
I wonder if you have any plans to travel to Namibia, or to Mana Pools, in Zimbabwe. That would be great to see.
keep on the great work
greetings from Brazil
Mana Pool Zimbabwe is amazing
Thanks mate! Would love to go to Mana Pools! It’s a dream trip but at the moment just way too expensive
Next level Ed! Your video skills just keep on improving especially the wildlife work.
Lots of memories in this one - Jock of the Bushvelds' (got the book and the t-shirt) birthplace, Ship mountain, Berg En Dal restcamp and the pool, happy days!
Still have my No.1 potje at my escape in the mountains of Catalunya and use it regularly. I must admit that the leg of lamb is my favourite - did you ever try a whole chicken in Coca-Cola? OK but a bit sweet for me.
Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much Paul! Glad it could bring back some memories! Thanks for the support and for being one of the contributors towards the channel!
Great vid Ed
Thanks mate!
Nice videos, from Australia, what are best months to travel , thnxs
Hi Ed, excellent video. How far is that Jock of the bushveld stone plaque from the afsaal picknick site. Is it possible to reach it with a normal sedan car?
Hi Andre! It depends on the time of year, in the wet season definitely not but I’m sure in the dry season it’s all good!
Yoh Ed, loved this one a lot! What are your thoughts on the Berg en Dal campsite? I’ve stayed in the chalets there a few times and the impression I got was that the place is not run well at all. Is the same to be said about the campsite? Never camped there so just curious.
Awesome vid mate!
Thanks bud! I didn’t chat about Berg en Dal because it was awful! Worst campsite in the Kruger, only 4 toilets and showers catering to over 50 campsites. At 4:30 in the morning I was standing in a queue waiting for a shower so I didn’t wanna end the episode off like that 😂😂
@@EdwardBath Noted, thank you 😂
Interesting about Berg en dal. Weve stay in the chalets a few times with no issues but family who've been there recently also complained about the cleanliness. We've stayed many time in the other Kruger camps and have had no issues what so ever.
@@MayurPatelZA yeah as a general rule, Kruger accommodation is always clean and well run, seems Berg en Dal needs a bit is a management makeover! If that can happen then it would surely be one of the best camps in the Kruger since it is in such a beautiful area and the bird and animals life is fantastic.
Hi ed, Im planing to take this route you took, with some off-road but not too rough for my family and I of three. We will be driving in with a rental Fortuner, any suggestions you might have for me? obviously, we will be delighted to see some cheetah along the way. We will stay at the Mdluli safari lodge the day before, and head towards Pretoriuskop and then down south towards berg en dal then exit the Park from Malelane gate and off towards Nelspruit to meet my friends there.
Please share your route with me and please provide me brief idea of what to expect in terms of games and what should I be aware of driving the off-road tracks. I will be coming in during late January, which I believe will be quite wet.
Much appreciated and keep up the lekker channel! Cheers
Edward if you were forced to take only one coffee maker on an overlanding trip, would it be the Aeropress, Stanley press or French press?
Aeropress for sure Sean!
@@EdwardBath Thought so and, it makes sense. The AP GO is cute but too small except for hiking but for overlanding the standard one is the way to go.
Hi ED do you now if people can fish at the river at manelaan gate
Hi Ruan! Not as far as I understand, nowadays you aren’t even allowed to alight from your vehicle at that bridge unfortunately
