- This was our first trip to South Africa. Listen to our experience of the country, the food, and the people. You will definitely want to add Johannesburg and Cape Town to your bucket list.

wow, wow wow, actually R200 is actually an amzing tip, in US dollars its about $11. Thank you on behalf of our people. I believe they greatly appreciated it🙏
Our pleasure!
SA is a far away home for all the nation , thank you for coming to SA, and spreading positivity about SOUTH AFRICA
Our pleasure.
August is the best time to go on Safari. Summer (Nov-Feb) gets to around 95F by 10am.
Thanks for sharing.
Great video guys. It was a "fix" or me. I'm hooked (travel there every 3 months and stayed there during Covid) on the country (and continent) but now sitting in DC like an addict -- itching to get back (6 more weeks). Your story touched on the experience of many. Like you, I travelled everywhere and had a great time and then I (on a lark) and solo travelled to South Africa and realized how much I really didn't know about things there or and how much I overestimated everywhere previously. Africa easily blows those other destinations away. Even my beloved Spain became boring lol. It's seen me once since then.
It's , very, very, very sad that many African Americans are not aware of the type of life possible in Joburg due to negative information provided by non-Africans and misinformed Black folks. They stubbornly "think" they know and live entire lifetimes unaware. Everyone of all races needs to see it for themselves. Blacks to say they know how it feels to be the normal one in society and whites to understand the opposite. Going to Joburg is as easy as going to Atlanta, DC or LA except South Africans are more laid back, no profanity, no Karens, no micro-agressions , no disrespectful behavior and no nonsense. And, Africans love us and are the warmest people on the planet. Since my first trip, I've been to over 15 African countries and experienced th same. Africa is a life changing destination and SA is an easy, affordable place to start. As you have seen, it's a different vibe that possible in the USA. In fact it makes living in the USA feel like living in a trash can, with regards to people to people interaction. Look forward to seeing your adventures. PS: Try to return to Cape Town during the Cape Town International Jazz Festival Weekend. Thank me after afterwards :)
Thanks for your feedback. Sounds like you had a life changing experience there also.
@@TCCWILDWORLDTV My trip was indeed. I remember sitting in my seat as the plane was taxiing and thinking "You thought you had it figured out. Travelled all over the world only to fall on my face there". Since then, I NEVER take Africa travel advice from non-African sources (they fail miserably -- even to this day) -- only from Africans in Africa or diaspora.
I laughed 😊😊, got emotional a bit while i was watching yout video giving us your first impression of the country. Through your lenses hearing how you were received and the love you felt, it is truly humbling 🙏🏽🙏🏽 we are forever grateful.
As you mentioned once you come to SA amd feel it you are never the same again...
We do hope to see you once again and again
We will definitely revisit. You guys have a beautiful country.
We see you from Capetown Southafrica 😇😇🇿🇦
Great information! Tank you
Our pleasure.
Thank You for coming to South Africa. Even with all of our problems, its a great great country to visit. Good value for money and in the main, wonderful friendly people
You’re welcome. We had a wonderful time.
Problems are all over the 🗺 world but we have to make choices that benefits us❤❤😊
Beautiful stories, Cheers to many more. Lets follow this journey
DURBAN KWAZULU IN YOUR NEXT TRIP
Great information 👍🏽👍🏽
Thanks!
there are flights straight from the US to Cape Town
Thank you for sharing. S Africa has been on my list for decades because my favorite college professor was a S African woman who educated us about apartheid... This was in the early 90's
You definitely need to visit. It’s a wonderful country.
We are Africans and we know black Americans are are people
Thank you for visiting South Africa and contributing to our tourism and hospitality sector!
You are very conscious couple, thank you for noticing the social issues of our nation
South Africa has a long way in providing better basic services and housing for the poor
Hope things will be better one day and the country will have a corrupt free government which is pro the empowerment of South Africans to end black poverty
You’re welcome!
Wow! I'm in love with this family already. Thank you so much for gracing us with your presence. I'm glad you enjoyed SA. Next time do Durban as well. Let's talk Real Estate.
Thank you. We can definitely talk about Real Estate.
Bless you both, and thank you for your positive experience on our beautiful country, and looking forward to welcoming you both back.
Thank you. It was a positive experience and I hope more Americans go and see what we experienced.
When we were growing up our dream as Africans especially us young South African people was to go in America 🇺🇸 (we’re dreams come true) there are still young people who want to move to America, listening to both of you and how much you loved South Africa and that it was both your dream to visit our country gives me hope that South Africa is not a bad country at all. This video made me appreciate my country even more. Yes we have issues in our country that we need to work on, Crime, education and poverty.
Thank you for visiting our country and we hope to see you soon 😊❤
Enkosi kakhulu ❤
New subscriber 😊and I’m the real VIP😂😅♥️ 1:00:09

Thanks for the recommendation.
Thank you for this nice video. What a beautiful couple you are. I definitely will visit SA. Berlin ✈️ Johannesburg. I am coming😊
Thank you. You will definitely enjoy SA.
Mr&Mrs Crawford it's so good to see you guys had an amazing experience in our beautiful country thank you for sharing 😊.

Thanks for the recommendation.
Please Please Please explore Kruger National Park. Its a once in a lifetime experience
Try Durban next time or East London or Port Elizabeth
I’ve heard good things about that area. We’ll definitely look into it.
Gqeberha not Port Elizabeth!
Yes yes yes, Drakensberg for a night too.
Welcome home guys SA is a beautiful country, there are other couples who came and explore African continent they 've travelled from Cairo to SA but they have chosen SA... you always welcome here 🤗
Thank you! We definitely enjoyed SA.
@@TCCWILDWORLDTV ❤️
Lol, I also get nervous if the truck is parked on my side . Pilanesburg is beautiful in summer . The mountains are green and are the plants and trees are in full bloom. You also get to see more animals in a way because they go to the river to hydrate . I grew up in Soweto and I'm older than your tour guide. I can tell you that he is definitely a Sowetan and everything he was saying on that video was on point and fact. I would definitely recommend him.
Thanks. Yes, he’s very knowledgeable and personable. We truly enjoyed him.
You guys are funny 😂😂😂 glad you enjoyed Mzansi
Yes we did.
I'm glad your experience in our lovely country was pleasant for you. Looking forward to more of your content. God's speed.
Our pleasure. Thank you!
Next time you come back, please get in touch with me. I will show you how to enjoy Cape Town without spending much. I would love to do it just for you.Thank you
I’m so happy I came across your page! I love your detailed content! My family and I will be traveling to South Africa in December and you have given me great ideas and places to see! 😊
Thank you!
I'm South African and I've never heard of turn down. But I'm just an ordinary person - no hotels. You are two lovely people.
Thank you! And thanks for the clarification.
Good Video! Very informational. Thank you!
Love this! Can't wait for your next visit.
Get it going fam .. we with y'all no doubt.. welcome too RSA
Your husband T shirt 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you!
We love you guys!
Thank you, sir and ma'am.
Thank you! Likewise!
Hey Hey fam, well said and nice video. Looking forward to having you all back!
Thank you, Kindly!
Luvvvvvvvvvv Marco's❤...excellent Food...and service....
Most definitely.
Its time for our black African Americans brothers and sisters to fill up those planes back home to Africa. Book them out! We've BEEN waiting and ready to receive you with open arms to welcome you back home.
Yes it is,
Everyday those numbers are growing . Trust me.👊🏾💯✈
One of the things us South Africans don't appreciate is poverty porn, someone feeling sorry for us coz we live in informal settlements etc. Poverty exist in every country and by the mere fact that America is almost 5 times our population, I can tell you that America has more homeless people than SA and majority of them are black people
I understand your point of view. Enjoy your day.
HUSH! You tripping! They weren't "feeling sorry" for anybody.You dont understand the CONNECTION we feel to Black People. Especially in South Africa. Many of us protested in the 80's when we found out about Apartheid. Of course there are many poor people in America. And actually you are INCORRECT when you say the majority of homeless in America are Black. No actually they are white, just as the majority on welfare and food stamps are white. Quite as kept , you probably are white.🤦🏾♂🤦🏾♂🤦🏾♂🤦🏾♂
Don't sweat if you forget to bring an adapter/converter. You can get them here, too. Most likely for cheaper.
Thank you!
Welcome to the motherland. Since that you are in real estate, i will recommend you to come back on real estate tour with the real south Africa ,you will be able to view different properties ,golf estate, country estate etc , alot to see.
Thank you!
Please do come on the real estate tour this coming November i think with The Real South Africa you will love it...
The Upcoming Real estate tour with The real South Africa will be a great one to meet people already in the business across Johannesburg and actually get to see all the homes available.
In South Africa it is best to go on Safari in the winter because the grass is shorter and you can see more animals. But you must come back in the summer time
We will definitely be back. Thanks for the information.
@@TCCWILDWORLDTV Please come back. Welcome home to South Africa. Wish more African Americans would visit.
From November to February
Yes, baby season is Dec - Feb. It’s breathtaking to see all the wild babies 🐘🦒🦓 late January is off peak season in SA. Schools are back. Weather is still gorgeous. It’s a great time of year to travel to SA. Thank you for visiting Mzansi ❤ we are diverse in animals, birds, plant life, terrains, races, religions, languages and cultures and I hope you return and return and return, enough times to enjoy them all. And go bokke !!! 🇿🇦

I didn't know there was a non stop flight to Johannesburg 😢 When I went, It took me 23 hours. I stopped in Dunai once, then another time my stop was in Doha
Yes. It’s out of Atlanta.
Visit Kruger National Park when you come back.
Glad to see an AA couple in Southern Africa, we have a closer culture. Try Namibia next.
We definitely will. Thank you!
You must also visit Cape Town it's a great city as well❤
We visited Cape Town and are planning another trip there soon.
Just don't buy or heavily inspect your shoes from the stores in the malls. Some may not do returns.... Learned my lesson... at a shoe store. You don't see any notice posted of NO REFUNDS until after you purchase and its on your receipt
Good tip!
Only Yah's Kingdom will bring a righteous government He will rule and put enmity under his footstool 🙏🏼😍❤️❤️😊
Next when in Cape Town go to SIBA restaurants 100% black owned. Siba is a reniwned chef
Thanks for the information.
We need to promote Siba more...she is a lady of pure opulence with a humble soul...one of our five star renounced chefs ❤. Capetown has the best of them.
@@delialubke6610 we will definitely visit them in the near future. Thanks for the advice.
Very nice, thanks for sharing your experience. I had a big laugh about the turndown story 😅😅😅 and your expression to your husband. 🤎 I'm a new subscriber.
Thanks for subscribing!
Uber is very accessible in SA, and quick
Yes it is.
This lady can pass for Kleurling in SA...
She would be seen as a coloured lady like myself in South Africa...what a lovy couple they are.
@@delialubke6610 Exactly, as I said 😆😆, but in USA she's "black" 😆, I guess white American can pass as Afrikaners 😆😆
Thank you for following us. 😀
@@TCCWILDWORLDTV How's the trip? We just got back to Philippines from South Africa...there's another journey to follow 😆
The trip was wonderful. Please take a look at our videos of our experiences.
We used to have straight flight SAA until ANC corruption now we don’t have anymore
Our flight from Atlanta to Johannesburg was a straight flight.
Welcome family
Please kemya should be on your itenary
I see so many SOUTH AFRICANS saying great amazing things but when its fellow Nigerians or Kenyans post videos about moving to South Africa, they are usually met with hostility. I feel as though many South Africans need to check their biases. The way many African brothers and sisters are being treated is despicable, seems to me South Africa associates African Americans with wealth and fellow Africans as a burden, out to take their jobs. This is just what Ive observed and Ive asked many other Africans how South Africans treat them. Trust me its not as warm as they treat Americans.
That’s interesting.
The problem is most people from African countries they commit crime, robbery, murder,shoplifting and house breaking thus why the south Africans end up having attitudes towards them but some they are nice and some they don't respect us
