    I am from Poland. Lately, we spent 9 months in Kruger, three times three months. Looks like we won't return, but we miss the place. Yes, we did some serious photography with superb results. Used to think that masai mara was the place. No, it's not.
    Wish I could go, but they make it so hard to make reservations. There is always a problem with the Visa card. They make it so complicated. In counties of the world, it's working so smoothly.
    Nice adventure, great wildlife! Congratulations.

    What a superb video you guys shared with us, what makes your video so special for us is the quality, the lovely commentary and the focus on the animals and KNP and not wheels rolling through water etc.
    Thank you so much and keep enjoying the SA nature.

    Really enjoyed this! As we're in a wet, cold UK, we're vicariously taking in the best place in the world!
    We love the way you guys take time to see the small stuff (not just the Big Five, nice as it is). Love your bird footage.
    You do Kruger exactly the same way we do. Taking your time. Enjoying each animal sighting, not just a quick photo, and zooming off, looking for lions.
    Keep this up!

    Congratulations on one of the best Kruger National Park videos I have ever seen. So nice to see something put together so beautifully with so much love and care.
    So different than the rest of the videos with endless fast forward shots of the car driving, so different than the shots of people eating and commenting on food, so different than the videos with the poorest of the poorest background music...not taking you to Africa but some Ibiza disco.
    Thank you for adding the names of the different species as well. Subscribed and liked, and hope to see many more.

    Greetings Richard! This is the first time I have watched one of your videos. I sure did enjoy it. I watched it while I was having a meal and I was hoping to see something that would not show a lot of animals being ripped apart and I was very pleased that nothing violent took place. Most of the animals seemed to be in a very relaxed mood and it was a pleasure to eat and enjoy what they looked like in their natural surroundings. I even enjoyed the bird life; especially the bird that sounded like it was blowing a flute. I had never heard of a bird that could make that kind of sound. If I were out there in the wild with that bird, I might imagine that someone was pulling my leg. "Alright," I might say, "Come on out where I can see you." Anyway, I sure did enjoy your eight-day wildlife excursion in Kruger National Park. Next time, please introduce your girlfriend. She deserves some recognition as well. Anyway, adios from Texas my friend.

    Absolutely fantastic video shots...you have a trained eye! Super bird sightings. Sorry, just found the loud music VERY intrusive....especially when you want to hear the bush sounds. Soft gentle background music would be very calming. Just a thought. Brilliant video...will send it to my son in the US.

    Magical experience guys, you had some fantastic sightings, look for the small things and the big things will appear. I'm heading to Kruger for 5 weeks in August, could I ask about the car door based camera mount, I think I saw Motion Mount, does it just sit on the top of the door, is it good enough for steady video ? It looks pretty substantial ! Safe travels !!!

    • @RichardvanHaght
      @RichardvanHaght  Месяц назад +1

      Hi thank you so much for the awesome comment! The Motionmount is the perfect solution for steady videography. It is made to order to fit the door of the vehicle model that you specify when you place the order. It doesn't just rest on the door, it fits the door perfectly, with a durable rubber foam finish to protect the vehicle. This is what I use and I don't go to any game reserve without it. Enjoy your 5 weeks in the park, that's going to be incredible.
