- The MIGHTY ZAMBEZI & The GREAT ZIMBABWE RUINS | Ep2
An overlanding adventure drive like no other, in the second episode of this 3 part series, as we head out from Chitake Springs to the Nyamepi campsites, and then onwards to the Mucheni campsites. Spending a total of 6 nights in the Mana Pools National Park, we then travel to Harare and onwards to Masvingo, where I visit the UNESCO world heritage site that is the Great Zimbabwe ruins. Where to next?

And again another insane episode. Unreal. Never knew about the Ruins and they are incredible. Great episode chom.
Thanks mate, much appreciated
GOD BLESS ZIMBABWE. SHE WILL RISE AGAIN.....
What an episode and adventure mate! So sorry I missed this one. What a fantastic production 🔥
Hopefully you will visit Zim once again as a team
Thanks bud, next time for sure 🤙
My beautiful country Zimbabwe.
Thank you very much for visiting our country Zimbabwe. I hope one day it will go back to what it was before, the land of honey and milk.
Thank you for visiting Great Zimbabwe and sharing our rich Karanga history. Great Zimbabwe was the brainchild of Mwene Mutapa Mungwabu Rusvingo in the 11th century. The Conical structure was constructed by Mwene Mutapa Mombemuriwo in honour of his great ancestor Sororenzou. Sororenzou's spirit abandoned the site after a civil war broke out.
The Mwene Mutapa dynasty lasted for some 500 years.
Look out for my book titled " North of the Limpopo : A Fascinating History of Ancient Zimbabwe"
No spirit abandoned anything, over grazing and overpopulation hurt the area and weakened the kingdom in terms of food security
Once again, a truly stunning adventure well told. When I came to South Africa in March we flew over Zimbabwe in daylight, what a green lush country it is. Thanks again for this video.
The things that you take for granted when you are in the motherland.. right wherein your umbilical cord is.. you begin to appreciate when you are overseas..Actually your perspective changes entirely..
I hope to fulfil my dad’s wish of traveling to mana pools.
I thoroughly enjoyed this..❤️
This is beautiful my man. Zimbabwe has many places to offer indeed.
Thank you very much for showcasing what my beloved home country has to offer!
What a beautiful country Zimbabwe is. Thank you Ryan for showing the beauty.
Where can we get some of your merch like stickers and caps and so forth?
Thank you Ryan for showcasing our beautiful motherland, the shots are top tier 👌🏽🔥
Great show in a beautiful country, stunning adventure. Why do you call it "overlanding"?
Thank you so much for mentioning our product, the Gortech Multi-stage Scissor Jack. We are extremely proud of what we have created. Awesome video!!! 🔥🔥🔥
There's a lot of great places to visit in Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 Thank you so much for showing our beautiful country🙌
What an awesome adventure in the land of my fathers

Thank you ever so much for sharing, really makes me home sick, as the saying goes, you don't appreciate what you've got until it's gone, I'm definitely going back home, Zimbabwe is absolutely heavenly, God was in love with us humans when he created Africa, thank you heavenly father heaven on earth.

update: 1hrs later, this was an awesome video man, can't wait to see the next one, this country is way too beautiful, Great Zimbabwe ruins are fascinating, it's incredible.
Just stopped the video before Miriam’s tour to say what an excellent series of videos this is. The editing is the best I’ve seen for a none mainstream channel ever! Probably better than itchyboots!
Great video Ryan. Saw so much of a beautiful country. Great Zimbabwe. Mana pools wow.
"Not his real fire". That was hilarious!
Absolutely amazing Videos, really opned my eyes to South Africa, #inspiring
Thank you Ryan for showcasing this beauty called Zimbabwe
Absolutely wonderful, thank you so much for sharing it with us. All the best from the UK.
What an amazing episode! Never knew Zimbabwe had so much to see, all the more reason to go visit especially since I’m right nearby in Polokwane! Thank you for sharing your experience, please bring on some more! 🤙🏼
Thanks Ryan another fantastic one.

When we were at the Great Zim Ruins we stayed at the camping site at the park. Primitive but most enjoyable.
Beautiful lake Mtirikwi👌👍 I need to visit the Great Zimbabwe Ruins!!!
Ooh my beautiful Zimbabwe, ,thanks to Overlanding......hire these videos to Nat
Wonderful experience
Hi Ryan you have truly blown my mind, seen a RUclips channel like yours grow to the point where it is today 🙏🙏 the lifestyle you life truly makes me a proud South African, doing it better than American and Australian RUclipsrs. my dream is to join you guys on a outing and you are giving me the inspiration to start my own channel.
43:36.. i like it when you say "GOMOS" meaning mountains in Shona.
Recently came across your channel and can’t thank you enough for making access to such spectacular content possible… keep up the good work
Great to see Boswell is still alive and well. The game viewing shots were top tier hey!
Dude, I absolutely love watching your channel. As an expat, I live vicariously through your adventures. I hope you live long and tell more and more stories of you wonderful epic adventures.
Another epic video from Overlanding
The morning sounds of the hippos, fish eagles baboons must be epic and soo relaxing in the early hours of the morning. Makes you wish the sounds continued
Hippos are scary, not friendly. Next time you're in the wild, be happy to survived the night without them coming to your tent
Real deal,I love the way you narrate the whole adventure.the music and everything,you deserve you own program on a very accessible platform.i pray for you to grow so that I keep connected to your show.you are not alone.
Just love it!!!! Wow
my beautiful zimbabwe...i love my country so mch. thanks for showcasing zim in a great light.
Lovely adventure. Beautiful scenery. I am loving this.
Am sensing that the new eagerly awaited episode 3 will be dropping soon🤞🤞
I missed out on the dam wall I was at mutirikwi lodge last xmas
Wow amazing Ryan, can't wait for the next episode.

Awesome. Have been on a never ending viewing since I stumbled on your blogs. I wish I was there right now
Hi Ryan. Please, what camera and equipment do you use. The pictures and videos are amazing
It is really surprising one that how perfect the ancient method of engineering .The Great Ruins shows it.And the episode was absolutely fantastic👌.Thrilling journey through fascinating landscapes. 🤙
Thank you.

Love your adventures, only feedback I have would be, to please play less music when showing animals and play more of the nature sounds
Fantastic. Such a trip was my dream. A hug from Portugal.
When are you going to do your Gonarezhou video. Really looking forward to it
Gosh Ryan what an amazing trip and an unbelievably well edited episode, well done once again, you guys are next level with your video’s!
Amazing scenery and adventures…..I was last in Zim as a 10 year old boy in 1977 and long to go back and see it again ,…I think your fantastic travel guide / documentary will be the catalyst for me returning 🙏
Thank you and really glad to hear it. Yes, a return is in order for all of us. Always great to visit
Good morning Ryan. Just watched 2 x Zim RUclips episodes. I must compliment you on a great job. The footage, music and especially your enthusiasm and chilled, humble and honest narration style makes for super cool and motivating viewing 👍👌🙂
Thank you Sven and always lekker to hear it. Hoping this series and the ones to come help out with your future trips mate. All the best and thank you for your support 🤙
I like your positivity
What a great experience, thank you for sharing the beauty of Zimbabwe Africa. Awesome show keepon good work.. Respect
Awesome episode of an awesome trip. Thanks for the memories Ryan
Did you feel the cool breeze on passage of the great enclosure
Wow wow Ryan thanks Zim for sure a gem epic episode 4x4 ventures rock
Thanks for showcasing my home country's natural beauty and historical ruins. Our ancestors were prolific stone masons. I hope you tried out some Zambezi lager, you can't leave without trying the local dorps. As for the traffic, there's an $80 interchange on the road out of Harare and therefore you were using detour routes. It's going to be another 8 months of construction. I'm surprised you didn't run into any snakes
next level, mate!
That is what I call 🤙🤙 beauty , peace, loving it
As always amazing content sir! :)
I really enjoyed watching. Thanks for sharing 🇿🇼
😂😂😂😂getting out of Harare was mission impossible 😂😂😂😂
Thanks Ryan, good one! Quite a smack you must have got on your Shnoz! Looked like you had been putting a bit of eye make up on the next day. Can’t wait to visit Zim
Great episode, F**** great. Lets goooo !
Enjoying your episodes always!

Hi Ryan
Thanks for your excellent program. I don't miss any of them. We are planning to also visit the Ruins in July. What time do you think we should set out to spend at the Ruins. We unfortunately don't have a full day to spend there.
Thank you for highlighting the beauty and uniqueness of Zimbabwe. Keep on visiting and hopefully Zimparks will work on renovating some of the items you pointed out.
Cherish the moments mate. You are privileged with fantastic views and adventure. You have inspired me to experience this one day in the future.
Chuffed you visited our great country and put it more on the map. Well done 👍
