Thanks Tanja. I once read on a chappies wrapper that the Kruger is larger than Israel and also larger than Netherlands. Thanks again for that piece of information
Kruger National Park is massive, larger than Israel and also larger than the Netherlands. Me and my brothers did a 4 day road trip through Kruger. We had booked different chalets across the national park to spend our nights. We entered Kruger in Limpopo Province (Venda), and we exited in Mpumalanga. It was amazing!
Oh my goodness nothing will slow down this wonderful and amazing couple not even covid-19! Mpumalanga is beautiful..I was in Nelspruit for the first time in 2018 my breath was taken away! The vegetation, weather, people, infrastructure just amazing!
Another thing to know about South Africa: there's no place like East London if you are looking to have fun in December. I'm from Cape Town and I'm in love with the atmosphere of Eastern Cape coastal line.
We are in the "three capitals" zone. You can have breakfast in Nelspruit, (the capital city of Mpumalanga Province, South Africa, have lunch in Mbabane( the capital city of Eswatini) and have your dinner on the beach in Maputo, (the capital city of Mozambique). The three cities are an average of 150 kilometers apart in a triangular shape. This is the best part of Southern Africa's eastern coast!
So true... most outsiders like to showcase fake news. This is very refreshing..... definitely the SA that I know and grew up in! I love this guy cos he’s showcasing all the positive vibes! Kudos to him 🙏😂💃🏽💣
@@mishykope and your point being? Why not showcase your own country and leave SA for a change? Which country are you from by the way? There’s nothing stopping you in inviting him to your country maybe then you will mind your own business 🤬
Greetings The Real South Africa, you and your services are leading the way in the South African tourism and travel business. I wish you continued success and I hope to visit some day in the future. Thanks for sharing.
Last time I was in Nelspruit was exactly 12 months ago. I hope you got a chance to check out Riverside on the R40 road (Mall, Casino and hotel complex) and Hazyview (a very tourism-forward town). Fun fact: Mpumalanga shares borders with Eswatini, Mozambique, Limpopo, KZN, Free State and Gauteng. MP is very diverse, you will find Ndebele's, Swatis, Pedis, Zulus, Tsongas in different parts of the province.
Been to 8 provinces in SA except the Northern Cape. All SA pronvinces are so special. When Im next in SA I need to visit Northen Cape and my home province of KZN.
My hometown lol thanks for the video. My favourite restaurant is Orange Restuarant which was really close to where you're hotel was. You get an amazing veiw of the town. Its beautiful.
God bless your channel Blanton’s it always give birth to new things that are so amazing about my beloved country, every time I watch this channel I feel like I am traveling with you guys, so amazing.
The only thing missing in Mpumalanga is the sea. Nelspruit always make me wish I could just command the sea to come and settle, it's got that sea thing for me. I imagine it will sooo beautiful and calm.
Thank you Guys, this was awesome seeing iLanga Mall, a view of the R40 road, Mandela drive,Samora machel drive and N4. (The roads can be very busy during rush hour)
Majority of the province's are .. I called my mayor last in Northwest that we can't be Mining platinum and our province is behind with development and infrastructure and requested a meeting with him December when I'm home.. SA phakamani ixesha lifikile✊🇿🇦
Been to Mbombela(Nelspruit) a few times and always enjoy that town. Always stay at the hotel close to that mall. The last time i was there was the last year before covid. For my anual birthday golf weekend. We played Mbombela County Club. An awesome colf course
Amazing content guys..i look forward to my trip next year...one week in joburg and the second in Durban. Its so fascinating n pioneering that you guys are introducing n showcasing SA to not only foreigners but natives also who may not be indigenous to some provinces. Im james by the way guys.🙋🏾♂️.UK born n based but a heavy consumer of SA film, tv , music n culture to a point ive made a trip to SA a must. Im originally from the democratic republic of congo kinshasa btw also. Regularly absorbing vids until i land in March 2021
Thanks again for an excellent content. However, please inform us where you intend going/visiting, so that we can arrange for the locals to host you and show you some of the local gems unique to that place. Please tell us to be able to assist you.
The only province that is divided into 2 parts that is Highveld and Lowveld. And i'm from the tip of Lowveld between Gauteng, North West and Limpopo, former KwaNdebele Vaalbank. Funny we use Pretoria as our town because nelspruit is very far from us. Spitori is our mother tongue. Those who wondered yeah I'm Black Village boy.
Lol thanks for explaining the Lowveld and Highveld situation. Yes I know that places near Kwamhlanga, Emalahleni, speak the Pretoria - Spitori lingo. And actually Bronkhostspruit is now a part of Pretoria - Tshwane and used to be fully Mpumalanga. So I know what you mean lol
@@stephenkodisang344 Gauteng is entirely in the eastern parts of the central plateau known as the Highveld region of South Africa. Mpumalanga has on its western side the Highveld region and the rest is the lowveld region. The Lowveld region extends to the Limpopo province. Some parts Limpopo are in the Bushveld region. Basically South Africa can be divided into three distinct geographical regions. The Great central plateau, the Great Escarpment and the low lying region which lies between the Escarpment and the seas. Within these three regions that is where you find your Lowveld, Highveld, Bushveld as already discussed. Other regions include the Eastern Midlands, the Great Karoo, Griqua area, the Kalahari, etc. Obviously some of these geographical regions extends to our neighbouring countries as these physical features of the landscape do not coincide with the political borders that resulted from the scramble for Africa (Berlin conference of 1884).
Absolutely beautiful and very nice there's no part of South Africa that I don't like I would like to know how much a Mercedes Benz 2020 cost in SA compared to the U.s.
Oh you can order online alright some companies are operating both in the online space and at the malls. South Africans are super social, so being at mall means a proper meet up with friends and family.
Most retail store have an online option if you can't stand malls you literally buy anything online including groceries and fast food, we also have Uber Eats
I would love to see where the working class black people live. I'm only interested in meeting them. I'm not going to KFC and the mall when I get there. So where do they live?
South Africa is amazing, but please start talking about how minority groups are discrminated against. Only certain races and cultures are allowed to get jobs. And it is only getting worse. Please start opening your eyes to the reverse disrimination and poverty affecting the minority groups in South Africa. Thank you.
Just to put it in perspective. Kruger national park spans over 2 provinces and is almost the size of Belguim
Oh Tanja,

You couldn't have said it better. People must learn to come to south africa the proper way. You make us proud. Keep doing what you do.
I can't wait to get back to South Africa. I literally live for these videos. I get so happy every time a new one drops.

This mall is so empty in Bloemfontein malls are popping, both waterfront and mimosa are always packed dont know about the other two.
They probably went there during the week, weekends are always packed.
Also the weather was a bit gloomy on that day and people usually stay at home on days like that.
Yes my favourate couple again love you guys

And the late Puff Johnson was in South Africa she went back to the US because of her treatment unfortunately she passed away in the US
