A beautiful, interesting and entertaining video. Your prductions keep getting better and better. This is so well produced that the BBC would be proud of it.
Absolutely stunning footage. To Netflix - make sure you get hold of these guys in the future - people will pay good money to see the adventures of Sailing Yacht Florence
I had to watch this twice. The second time on my large screen HD tv. The film making is just gorgeous. You have really outdone yourselves with this little epic. Thank you,
Hi guys. I have been watching for a while and your filming is getting so good. Absolutely stunning scenery and gorgeous night shots. Wish your episodes were weekly. But worth waiting for. Next weeks episode looks just as good!
You have taken your cinematography to a new level of excellence with this video ! The night sky filled with stars was simply stunning. I have backpacked and camped in very remote areas in the US but none approached the clarity and sheer impossibly large number of stars visible in Fish River Canyon. Love the rustic camps and "loo with a view" !
I am living in South Africa and have been to Namibia many times. You captured the dessert feeling in an absolutely stunning way. Your videomaking skills are outstanding. Great video. Thanks
I am very happy that you got the chance to experience the country of my birth. Beautiful video, and as has become the standard in recent videos, excellent, excellent choice of music! Also quite liked the bit when Namibia conspired to keep Amy there...
In my mind i always thought that the skys over southern africa both on land and at sea were the best that i ever saw thank you for confirming this i first saw this in 1964 in my mind it seems like yesterday thank you
What an incredible hike! I love the details of the camp sites- nothing over blown, just stunning views & cool layouts with vistas as the focus! Buuuut, after a long day of hiking & avoiding getting sucked into quicksand- what a glorious retreat! Incredible footage, loved the end of day lighting- very cool that you got the drone up in time to catch it!
It reminded me of my trip to Namibia 4 years ago. What a fantastic country. Amazing views and wildlife. The people were so friendly and eager to help you with routes and identifying different tracks and animals. Becareful going night walking though. In some places that puts you firmly on the menu! The usual excellent cinematic and drone shots and well constructed story. Thank you.
Hello from Alberta Canada. Excellent choice for a land excursion have done the Grand Canyon the Fish River Canyon is certainly equal in most respects. However the true isolation and night sky at Fish River definitely superior,. Thanks for taking the time to document it for us must have been a challenge to remember to pick up a camera with so much to take in.
11:43 (edit 11:23) That sky! Oh my gosh. I've seen pictures like that in magazines and on physicist Brian Cox's shows. Always thought they were enhanced in some way or in another galaxy! But to see them here with your camera...just Beautiful!
Stunning scenery beautifully captured on video. I hope your journey north along the Namibian coast allows you to visit Walvis Bay and meet the amazing Dreyers, Naude and Katja and family and their colleagues Antoine, Denzil and Wally and Kat and all the other Ocean Conservation Namibia team members. If you haven't seen their videos of the rescue and release of seals at Pelican Point and Cape Cross from entanglements with ocean borne plastic detritus then please do. You are in for a treat.
I always have wanted to be out at night free from light pollution so that I can stare at the light of the stars that may have taken hundreds of million if not a billion of two years to get here for me to see. I admire you and people like you who have had the thrill of seeing the night sky, and taken a pictures of light from stars that may not even exist anymore. Well done Florence! Best, Webhead USA
Your cinematography and video editing has exploded in the last six months. It’s spectacular. Thank you for sharing your journey with us and your experiences as you travel the world. Z.
Hi guys great video of one of my favourite places .....always thought one had to do the whole canyon as a hike 8 days ....the 2 days looks more my style .....enjoy... Mike from Zimbabwe
Interesting to see how the hike trail has changed over the years, I hiked and canoed it back in 1985, the only shower facilities were having a bath in the river.
Namibia is one of those places I wish I had visited but never got around to it. Those campsites looked incredible and the scenery was awesome, I can't wait for the next episode !!!
Looks so familiar to me . Did that trip 40 years ago and hitch-hiked about 16 times through South West Africa /Namibia. Its an amazing environment which looks after itself. Another major fascination is the meteorite nearby which struck in 1902 . It is an iron one about 12 ft in diameter . The hottest temperature I ever hitch-hiked in was also nearby on the national road north to Mariental . It was a boiling 51 Celsius . On that day I drank 14 litres of water and sweated out every drop with none to have a leak. I had to sit because I felt so faint. Only stood up to wave a car down every now and again. Thanks to water and my spare sugar and salt to add otherwise I would have passed out.
Spectacular 👍👍👏👏👏. Great documentary of the hike, and what a great job the trekking company are making of if. Wonderful experience, thank you for sharing 🤗🤗🤗
Your videos are getting just wow! Very very impressed. The music story… guy’s seriously. Well done! Talent is showing itself and I think many will agree. Keep up the great work.
Even if I must admit that my dream is very far from trudging through a canyon in Namibia under a blazing sun, I must admit that this video is superbly shot, that the landscapes are impressive and majestic, and that the quality of the shooting, the editing and musical accompaniments achieve here a rare quality. Thank you for this documentary which perfectly conveys the heat, the drought and the apparent absence of life in this canyon.
WOW! National Geographic could not have done any better. Ya'lls cinematography is so professional. Great job! Dee and Deb, Chesapeake Bay Virginia, USA
I've been watching since the Cape of Storms episode, and I love the content y'all put out. No other documentary / vlog series (Including professional tv documentaries) has been able to so perfectly show the wonder and awe in Sailing, History, and the World. In a world where far too much of history (Especially for kids) is about memorizing dates and specific events, your content provides the kind of nostalgic 'Tales of old from faraway lands' that works as a sort of gateway drug to history. Your content somehow manages to encapsulate the feeling of a story-telling session with a well-traveled grandparent or old salt sailor. Keep up the good work. You're storytelling ability is so far unparalleled! Fair winds and Following Seas, -J
That was mind blowing. What a unique experience and sooooo well documented. Really a great edit. Thanks so much for sharing. I know how much work it is.
Just WOW! Thank you SO MUCH for this adventure. You two are the BEST. What wildlife do you have to be concerned about? OR , on the flip side, what wildlife can you expect to encounter? What a stark and glorious landscape. Quiet. Yes! I had one camp night recently that had NO human noise... except for an occasional jet. Birds, insects, breeze and NO light pollution. I need to do that again. SOON! I look forward to each of your videos. Thank you again.
I live on a small plot of land in NZ, I also have and open air lavvy where I can watch the world go by. Mine is nowhere near that lavish or spectacular, but I do, on occasion, fly my drone from there and it has a wonderful valley view. It was once an old country school restroom, school long gone but the toilet still remains 90yrs on. Nothing like open air comfort and a view to kill. Lovely video as always.
Matt & Amy Hi. I have been watching your videos for quite a while now. Your video coverage and quality is amazing. I watch your video's whilst having dinner and relaxing after work. What a journey you guys have had so far. Not every leg has been great but I am sure you will agree the majority have been amazing. It was a great idea you decided to try scuba diving as you were travelling to some amazing diving destinations. I am a dive master and have been diving for many years. I am living in the UK and was also at sea with the merchant navy. I am originally from the Island of St. Helena in the south Atlantic. If you are heading that way I will ask my friends there to take you out diving. Larry "Nails" Thomas who runs the local dive club or his son Anthony "Nails". Just ask anyone on the harbour to put you in touch with them....actually the yacht club and dive club are next to each other on the harbour. My name is Mike but like my friends I also have a nickname "Cookie" Have fun and fair winds across the Atlantic.
Stunning video as always .. hope the Namibia tourist board are sponsoring you ! … loved the hands off trek .. if it had been NZ there would have been signs everywhere, dont do this, dont leave litter etc, with safety first ropes all over the place .. !
I have watched all of your videos, some I have watched multiple times; but this is one of your best. Your pictures of that beautiful night sky are just stunning. I envy your grand adventure but I am so glad that you share it with all of us. Be safe and thank you for this wonderful look and a world most of us would never see.
Indiana Jones eat your heart out :-)! Great video! I miss those stary skies - Really impressed with your shots! Proper epic hike, looked like an oven! Type 2 fun :-)!
Harsh but beautiful country and the vision you guys provide is just stunning. Impressed with the facilities to cater for hikers - well thought out. Thoroughly enjoyed.
Your videos are so very interesting and your technique and the way you frame your stories just blow my mind. You have become very professional cinematographers worthy of a paying audience rather than simply amateur videographers on RUclips ( not that there is anything wrong with that). You deserve the broadest possible audience. Thank you for your efforts and skills.
Wow! You really have evolved as videographers. I thoroughly enjoy your cunning storytelling mixed with vlog elements (and of course your personality). There is no other sailing channel like yours. Cheers
Indescribable night sky. That has got to be the best toilet view imaginable.🌃
I follow your journey for years now, in my eyes you two are the best filmers of all sailing channels
Absolutely stunning footage of a land most of us will never see. Thanks so much for posting and fair winds ahead. from Devon,UK
.
Also from Devon!
There are lions in the Namibian desert,be careful
A beautiful, interesting and entertaining video. Your prductions keep getting better and better. This is so well produced that the BBC would be proud of it.
I agree, just superb !
Thank you for visiting Namibia and appreciating the beauty of our Country.

Epic adventure, I absolutely loved this episode. Thank you Matt and Amy
Skies, plural for sky.
your videos are always good but this was one of the best - and it wasn't even about sailing! :-)
That was SPECTACULAR! And the Best Bathrooms EVER 👍❤️🙏✌️🖖. Well Done All of You.
What an amazing night sky I don't think I would have slept for star gazing, intrepid explorers thank you for taking us along.

Like always, very perfect balance of text, music and images, nothing to mutch, nothing to short, or litle

Sleep walking could be quite hazardous at the first camp site.
Stunning scenery beautifully captured on video.

I follow them and their rescues are amazing .
Just.....WOW!!! Stunning scenes...
Quality Quality Quality !!!
Best cinematography of any sailing channel, period. Well done guys!
1 of the best "sailing videos" I have yet to see. Just terrific guys. LOVED IT! see you next week.
You both have an eye for presenting fabulous views!
Absolutely awesome photography. Well done.

Absolutely first class production values and content. Your best Episode ever in our minds and hardly a shot of a boat. Thank you.
An amazing video of an amazing area. Thank You for sharing it.

Fantastic! And I had no idea this amazing canyon existed!
Amazing video guys - Namibia is definitely one of those places I would love to visit.

Thanks Florence, beautiful 🤩
Absolutely stunning. It's just keeps getting better and better. Best wishes from Ireland

What wildlife do you have to be concerned about? OR , on the flip side, what wildlife can you expect to encounter?
What a stark and glorious landscape.
Quiet. Yes! I had one camp night recently that had NO human noise... except for an occasional jet. Birds, insects, breeze and NO light pollution. I need to do that again. SOON!
I look forward to each of your videos.
Thank you again.
Well done guys, fantastic video.
