What an adventure this first part is, as I travel with my brother in law. Now incase you give me a hard time for giving him a hard time about his driving, you must know 2 things:
1. I have serious control issues with other people driving the ranger, and,
2. He hasn't driven a car, let alone a big rig for 2 years on account that he i a biker - someones gotta keep em on their toes.
A massive thank you to the support from brands, products and shops, and you, the subscriber.

Enjoy this overlanding adventure in Zambia, episode one. Smash the thanks button and help me get the ranger sorted out. Thanks legends 🙌
“Mosquito repellent at Tops” 😂😂😂. Great episode Ryan.
Thank you Max, and glad to hear that you picked up what I was putting down 😂😂 my wife still doesn’t get it 🤟
What a great adventure. We are doing a guided self-drive trip to Zambia visiting Liuwa Plains & Kafue NP in November 2024. After watching your video we can't wait for the tour. Many thanks to Ryan for making this video.
I watch this episode again and ja out of this world content, love the drone footage and music. This is my number one channel cheers Ryan
Awesome! You are welcome to zambia.
Wow🙌🏾 … what an adventure Ryan.. thanks for taking us with… amazing cinematography 👌🏾
Awesome Kagiso, and my pleasure mate. Glad you are enjoying the adventure and the show. Magic mate 🤙
I have loved watching these overland adventures. Makes my heart full but yet so sad, I miss the bush! Please add some information about the smell of the land before and after rain or just if you smell something different. Nobody understands the smell of the bush until you have lived it. Thanks for the memories!.
Amazing i always enjoy your camera quality the view is awsome....🎉
Wow, that is beautiful Ryan, love your content Bro, big up
Love watching your adventures. Born and raised on a farm in Zimbabwe and still travel back to South Africa annually (Kruger is my fav place to be and our road trip through Botswana and around Namibia was second to none). I'm blessed to now call beautiful Australia home (25 years), however, my heart and soul remain forever bound to the magical land of my birth. Sometimes when I'm feeling a bit down, I kickback and join you for a bit, reminiscing my own african bush adventures and road trips and going down memory lane with you. Thank you.
Woow this is so beautiful other part of Africa 🌍 thanks exploring our Continent
Thank you, and what an adventure in exploration 🤙
Thank you for this Epic Adventure. You inspire me to work hard so I can build an overland vehicle
Ryan, you smashed this episode! Absolutely brilliant. The camera work and quality can't be beaten. I loved the banter between you and Reece as well.
Exactly what I was waiting for, let me enjoy this.
Good to have you on board, enjoy 🤙
G'day from Australia, how lekker ey. Enjoying watching your adventure videos. Africa looks amazing and you do an amazing job in bringing us wonderful footage of your incredible continent. Love the kitted out ute (ok bakkie), had a Ranger myself and I'm enjoying you put it through the toughest terrain. Keep trucking, Ryan..
Thank you legend. Much appreciated and don’t forget that it is a 4 part series, with 1 still to be edited. I’ll see you at the next one, and remember, stay schmiko 😂 wrong context but you get my drift. Lekker 🤙
Loving the outdoors slippers 😅
Great content. Watching from livingstone Zambia 🇿🇲
For years I have been searching on RUclips trying to see if there is anything video that showcases how beautiful Zambia is and I couldn't find any not until I watched this masterpiece of a video. A video that is straight to the point, saying things as they are. Today you have gained a RUclips follower. Keep up the good work ❤ 🇿🇲
Thanks so much Ryan 👏👏👏 I was waiting for this one now I am enjoying👏👏
Thank you mate and it’s my pleasure 🤙
The overlanding setup in this video is a dream come true for any outdoor enthusiast. What a breathtaking way to explore!
Spectacular sunset wow!!
Oh wow, so many memories. Yellow bread YES! I loved that stuff. 'Bite that orange' what a great quote. On many of my old overloading routes Zambia was more a transit country between Malawi and Zim' so we often pushed through it quickly. But on a couple of occasions we were able to chill out and take in some of its high lights. South Luangwa being one. At least the parts of it that were accessible given the rains. Thank you for taking us on your little adventure, I've loved it.
Brilliant. Glad to create the memories mate and thank you for sharing. South luangwa is more, is in my radar. Zambia is incomplete and has so much to offer as with all the other countries higher up. What an adventure still awaits
bloody inspirational !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amazing as usual Ryan! What an epic adventure 🤟 Thanks for sharing it, can't wait for the next episode. Safe travels boet 🍻🇿🇦
Look, I am loving the picture quality. Great episode! Always hoping to bump on you here in Botswana...
Bud big thanks for the first episode, I absolute enjoy it.
No worries Goose. Always good to hear it. See you at the next one 🙌
We got stuck in the sand in Liuwa plains a few times. It is one place I would go with another vehicle when I go again.
Was waiting for this episode Ryan now am enjoying😊
Good stuff Alex 🙌
I've never been to Zambia, but I've already seen many videos, including by overlanders. The landscapes, the towns and the way the people wear it looks just like in the southern Mozambique.
Magnificent. Watching from Canada. Looking forward to episode 2. I am old 83 and watching your You Tube lets me feel I'm there.
Lived in Zambia in the 60"s so really appreciate your adventures.
Overlanding & adventure in Zambia Ep1, where we head for the very North West of Zambia to arrive at the fantastic Liuwa Plains National Park.
Help the channel out by making a donation , smash the “Thanks” button. It’s appreciated and will go a long way to repairing the ranger 🤙
What an epic adventure and we think your best video to date. Loving the banter and looking forward to the next episode.
Great program - have been following your overlanding trips for quite a while, sometimes with Edward Bath, and you are making great strides forward. Very informative for those of us who want to plan and do some more African overlanding!
Great Episode Ryan. Really enjoyed this one. Some nice angles. Having someone to drive while you film also gave some new angles.
Thank you Henk, much appreciated, and yes, it helps to change it up bud 🤙
Welcome to Africa. Land of magic
This is good. Very good can’t wait for the next
Fantastic, we really enjoyed this. Have been following your channel for a long time and this episode is awesome. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from the UK.
Hi Ryan,
loved this first episode and I am looking forward to seeing episode 2.
I am in the process of planning an epic journey myself and found a lot of common ground on the route you chose. great to have some referrals on places to stay.
Our plans are to do a trip starting in the middle of October next year. We will start from Maun, run up the west side of the Okavango into Namibia and run along through the Caprivi crossing into Zambia at Katima Mulilo, then retracing your steps up to Liuwa.
My main concern however is the distances you guys cover daily.
Do you have any recommendations on places worth stopping over for an extra night ,
rather than pushing through for another 100 or 200 km?
hope to hear back from you.
ps. Keep up the great work. We love watching your adventures.
cheers from Norway.
like the Kenneth Guy, happy for his promotion. awesome show as usual.
Finally, you are in Zambia, great to have you!
Good to have done this part of Southern Africa
Great production. World class mate!
This is an awesome adventure, its heartwarming seeing Zambia from your lenses. I have been watching your videos and i have been looking forward to a series about Zambia,
Hey Ryan 👋🏻 it’s James and Ellie 🙂 we’ve been in a hiatus recently.
We’ve just came back from your beautiful country a week ago 😭 you said we’d enjoy it ages ago when we commented and you were right it’s the best place we’ve ever been too and we’ve been to a few countries. We did our safari in Marataba near Marakele NP. Now we know why you have so much appreciation for the bush and the wildlife wow 🤯 blew our minds.
We’ve been catching up and last watched before this one went out of your Zimbabwe solo trip, sorry your fridge mount broke and you had to cut it short dude.
Also we 💙 your videos your our fave out of the guys you travel with 🤫 don’t tell Ed and Chris lol 🤭. This trip to Zambia is awesome we love your videography and your effort for the voiceovers and your edit it’s class it’s like watching a Nat Geo documentary 👌🏼. The time flies watching your videos honestly. You made us laugh a lot during this poor Reece and his driving abilities 🤣.
Hope you’ve enjoyed your weekend we won’t be in a hiatus and you’ll here more from us more now 🙂 take care and look forward to the next one 😎
Hi guys, WOW, what a fantastic comment. It really humbled both myself and my wife. We really appreciate your down to earth and authentic comms. So glad you had a great trip and yes, the wilderness in Southern Africa really is so so special, and, we sincerely appreciate you guys coming out and supporting our country and the national parks. It is very very encouraging to hear and uplifts my spirits for great times to come for so many others. The wild is a bug and a great one to be able to share with loved ones.
😂😂 Ed and Chris are absolute legends and like myself, are just happy to receive your support.
Next time you are here, reach out and we can meet up. Hopefully my Merch will finally be done and sorted.
Have a fantastic week ahead legends and see you at the next one.
Rgds
Ryan
Aww absolutely that would be epic 🤩 we already to plan to go back in December next year. We have you on Instagram too so we’ll shout out. Can’t wait for more episodes and also to see how you changed the colour scheme on the Ford 🤓. Stay safe and have a lovely week.

Absolute magic, what an adventure 🤙👍
Thank you Paul 🤙
Best drone footage so far.. epic!
Great content man watching from the USA always good to see another Ford Ranger doing this ✌️
patiently waiting for the next episode!!!!!
Nice, love it ... I do agree with you, crossing into Zambia with a foreign vehicle is a tedious process.
Magic ♥️♥️
Awesome job Ryan, epic footage, brilliant banter. Cant wait for you guys to hit 100K Sub's, you deserve it.
Thank you Tyron, glad you enjoyed it and at this rate 100k subs is forecast to take another 5.5 years 😂😂 we’ll get there, hopefully 🤞 Take it easy and have a good one

Great episode, Ryan! Thanks for sharing with us!
Another great episode Ryan, Hopefully one day i will bump into you on your epic adventures in Zim.
Amazing video Ryan, keep up the good work, and please come overland Kenya one day
Thanks Ryan enjoyed the first adventure.
Big fan of your channel,I like what you do.
Great opening episode. Botswana always great. A part of Zambia few people get to, might be the roads😀. The filming was great, some interesting wildlife. Seems like you had fun with your brother in law. Can't wait for episode 2. Being a Patreon supporter makes us feel part of the action. 🇿🇲
Thank you Doug for your support on Patreon and the channel. It is highly appreciated mate. Yes, a very great first part to this adventure and just fortunate to be able to share it with you. Episode 2 steps up a couple of gears and I can’t wait to take you on the adventure 🤙
Awesome episode. great work! Safe travels.😄
Absolutely fantastic 👍👍👍👍👍
As always a great episode .... I enjoyed the Zambia scenery 🤙
Glad you enjoyed it legend 🤙
Can't wait for the next episode
Me too 😂😂😂
Another incredible episode…. You just get better and better Ryan. We are heading up there in November en route to Kasanka to see the bat migration as well, so this was a brilliant episode for us personally. Thanks for sharing bud . What are your thoughts on our 6 ton truck on that sand and crossing on the pontoon ? 🙌👏👌Will give Reece a follow too
Thank you guys and glad I could shed a bit of light on this area of Zambia. You are gonna love it. I think the bridge over Kolabo river will be completed by then, but if not, the pontoon is proper and will carry the 6 tonnes I reckon. Maybe ask when you call to book for camping reservations. As for the sand, deflate, momentum and some power. You will be okay and it is all part of the adventure. It is something amazing, and a proper adventure. Bucket list trip this and something special for sure. Rhys is super stoked and such a lekker chap, even though he can’t drive for @$&! 😂😂😂😂
@@4x4ventures_southafrica brilliant 🙌👏👌
Great video as always man, Loved the sand driving shots!! All the best for your future travels👍🏾
Thank you Thabz 🤙
Hi. Great video, can’t wait for the next one. Liuwa is now at the top of my to visit list ( I’ve just returned from South Luangwa) along with Cohora Basa.
The drone shots are awesome in this. Why did that stop in episode 2?
Fantastic Episode Ryan.
Hello from Mozambique. Really enjoying these videos. Keep up the great job!
Thank you legend and I hope to visit your country in the future. Glad you are enjoying
Loved this episode, smashed it out the park with this one shum! Looking forward to the next one.🤙🏻
Thank you legend. Really lekker to hear SeanO and glad you enjoyed this one. See you at the next one mate
Brilliant episode Ryan and love the Drone shots. Adds a great dimension to show. Also music choice brilliant. You just get better and made our load shedding fly past. Shame about the rubbish driver you employed 😂 but at least he can cook 💥. Highlight of our week end and thanks
Thank you Fergus, yes, kaaaak driver and with the cooking there is hope yet 😂😂 lekker man, enjoy your week ahead and thank you for your comment legend. See you at the next one 🙌
Wow what a kiff adventure and episode. Excellent work. Greetings from Brisbane ex Johannesburg.
Thank you Charles. Very very Kiff. Much appreciated
Great video thanks for posting. I did a two week self drive camping safari in Namibia in October 2022. I've fully researched Botswana and Zambia. It might happen? Hello from Ireland 🇮🇪
❤❤❤
It was a lovely episode and you two are a great double act.
Thank you Christopher. We salute you bud 🙌
Just awesome!
Top notch work Ryan 👌
Thank you legend and awesome to have you following the adventures mate 🤟
The Ranger looks absolutely aggressive 💪
Awesome Alex 🙌
Good day Mr Ryan. Watching in Serowe. This contains perfect images and they are beautiful. I loved that footage of the mighty Zambezi. What's the original color of the Ranger?
Thank you mate. Original colour is white
Jip, try packing for 4! Our Cruiser very heavy then.
Hey mate. Is your snorkel just a aftermarket snorkel with a iron man Ram head? Love your videos mate. And the rig is beautiful 👌. From and Irish fella living in Australia 👍
Hi Gareth, it’s a full Ironman snorkel. Not sure if it is still in production for the ranger 2016 model though?
@4x4ventures_southafrica I will have a shop around mate. Thanks alot! 👌
Amaazing, you finally brought me home, never been that area tho. Told u, Zambia is what i call proper Africa, people dont understand what i mean when i say this, think u might!!
Thank you Nola, and I can absolutely understand whole heartedly that Africa feeling. Zambia dishes it out in spades. Glad to bring it home for you 🤙
looking forward to.more
Thanks buddy
😇
