Somewhere there is a shot of me absolutely caked in mud thanks to Simon and Dacar😂 felt like the guy riding sham in that last scene of Secretariat (if you know you know)😂

FABULOUS!!!! And Pete has got to be a total video savant--he has gone from amateur to epic pro in no time flat. It just started and I'm already blown away!

6:01 Simon being dramatic as always 🤣🤣 wouldn’t be the same without him

When I did a similar trip with Ant's they said the horses are allowed to graze because it signals safety to the *animals* you are watching. (Also nice for the horses but not why they do it.) With these outfits the houses live out on the reserve, the animals get to know them and if the horses are relaxed and grazing the wildlife will relax as well.

The guide’s chestnut is a stunner of a horse 23:10

Iv missed Kates face! Glad to see her back around YT again :) ALso, Meg, you are absolutely GLOWING!

as a south african myself, im so glad to see yall coming out here and enjoying what we got to offer

What is the breed south African what?

Oh, so cool that Simon is with you guys! He is so funny! I absolutely love what your new editor has been doing with your vlogs Meg. She's definitely up your game. Not that they weren't great and fun before. 100% huge fan! Can't wait for the next vlog. It is just beautiful there, the horses look great and like so much fun to ride. Thank you for taking us on this adventure with you and Pete. ❤❤❤

What is the breed south African Boerperd??

@tanyaoellermann

3 ай бұрын

The history of the Boerperd is divided into two phases. A first phase took place between around 1652 and 1836, when the first horses arrived at the Cape - Barb-Arabian crosses imported from Java. Bred with Andalucian and Persian Arab horses, these animals formed the basis of a recognised breed known at the time as the Cape Horse.

Boer means farmer. Boer is an Afrikaans word for farmer. Afrikaans is another language spoken in South Africa.

Only half way through and Kate’s witty humour already has me howling 😂 what an entertaining trip you must have had 😂 looking forward to watching the rest of it!

I cant remember what the channel was like before Simon... and i dont want to you cant make me! Such a great edition 🥰

So sad to not have seen you and the squad while you guys were here. Hopefully next time!! It looks like you guys had an absolutely amazing time

20:50 not Simon saying "impala" with a shot of Elands 😂(Lovely montage after 22:05 though Peter!) Fascinating to see how lush everything is! I have family in SA and I guess I've never visited at the right time for greenery. Very pleased you got to meet some Boerperds, they are lovely horses!

So glad you 4 enjoyed parts of our country!!! We have the most beautiful continent. Africa is honestly what you get shown on tv.

The cinematography?! Those water shots are stunning!! Great job Pete!! Its been so cool to watch him level up his craft over time

As a ex South African Love how she pronounced boerperd 😂. Joburg with its summer rain and lightning storms you must have been surprised to have rain storms in 30°+ weather

It’s so cool seeing you in my country!!! Hope you had the best time Meg
