Glad you think so!
The Namibia series was exceptional and this wildlife experience was simply breathtaking, I didn't want it to end! Thank you again for taking us along, so grateful to you for sharing this adventure of a lifetime 😊
Wow 😳. Namibia never on my travel list before. But now yes 🙏
Mesmerizing... Such a peaceful place where you feel a million miles from everything
These videos have become must-see Saturday night viewing for us. Another amazing adventure!
Like others, I too have followed this Namibia resorts series and loved it all. This entry with all the animals -- Those two "necking" giraffes! Never seen anything like that! -- was the standout for me. Superb!
Oh I’m in love! This is probably the most wheelchair-accessible place you’ve shared from Namibia.
How wonderful to see Elephants and wildlife living free. What an amazing experience.
Beautiful as always! Especially lovely to see the two loving giraffes. Love knows no bounds!!!!

Necking is actually a sparring exercise between two male giraffes and can become quite violent. Not a display of affection.
Breathtaking and beautiful work.... Thank you for your gift......
Simply breathtaking! Tanks for sharing.

The giraffe against the setting sun is definitely the money shot! Very nice place! Lovely suite ... Well done, dear LTE 👏 !!

Great video on the best lodge we ever stayed
THIS VIDEO IS EPIC!! START TO FINISH!! LOVE ❤ THE SUITES THE POP OF COLOR USED FOR INTERIOR & EXTERIOR FABULOUS! THE UNIQUE SINKS! EXTRAORDINARY FOOTAGE OF THE WILDLIFE ANIMAL KINGDOM YOU ALWAYS PUT US RIGHT IN THE ACTION WITH YOU! THE 4K RESOLUTION FEELS LIKE WE CAN LITERALLY REACH THRU THE SCREEN & TOUCH THE ANIMALS OURSELVES! THE LUNCH & DINNER YESSSSSS!! THE GIRAFFE WALKING THRU THE SUNSET PRICELESS!! LOVED IT ALL!! 😍 ❤ ❤
That was an amazing and beautiful video!!
I love your Africa videos. It is definitely someplace that i would love to visit one day. This place truly is so beautiful. Makes me want to book a trip asap.
amazing cinematography and footage for the wild Namibia park . moments of beauty and relaxation, a pleasure for the eye and and soul, luxury travel, i really enjoyed watching your video 🤩
great video! Those Rinos are the bomb!
About four years ago we stayed at Onguma the Fort. It was a most wonderful experience. Can only recommend it.
Amazing Namibia series, thank you, and now I can´t wait for the Maldives experience, yuhu!! ☀😍
With this last video I end the spectacular adventures you gave us with the beautiful videos spent in the Namibian desert. As always I had a wonderful journey. Thanks. 😍👍
Hi your BEST video..the Safari drives were breath taking..excellent coverage..hint hint...
I would love to stay in this luxury lodge !
Wow - I think y'all's safari tour was the most successful I've ever seen! Those lion cubs were the cutest, but there were a couple of times there, I was scared for y'all! Gin seems to be a popular liquor in the common areas of the lodge and I bet a few of you needed a shot or four after that trip, lol. Really beautiful place....that sky at sunset = AMAZING.
Absolutely, spectacular. Thank you!
Really Enormous...
Animals are much better than humans that's why I adore them...
As this channel nears 1 million subscribers, will we learn a little more about the LTE as we reach this milestone? That was hinted at some time ago. Of course I know there was the Corona video, but maybe something is planned after all. ;-) Great work!

Fantastic fort resort and wild Safari 👌👌👌
Wow, just wow. What a phenomenal property! Thank you for sharing your visit there.
Another beautiful place with amazing wildlife, but I’m left with the feeling that I’d be permanently hungry! Those portions look so small!
Beautiful quality of the filming, great music that complimented the lodge and safari, among the best travel videos I have seen, and I have seen a...lot..... Thank you
Oh my God you're going to finish the entire country of Namibia! Looking forward to your content!
Gosh, I felt I was really there. Maybe your best one yet. Lodge looks great, though I have to say the menu and cheap cutlery let them down a bit. But those wildlife pics! Just amazing.
Another great video. I still love it. Thank you.👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
Very beautiful places
The lion cubs literally stopped and struck a pose for the lady taking a pic with the iPhone at 20:29 min then continued crossing after she was done, gotta love these little things. 😂
C'est très beau, magnifique, un décor très épuré, les couleurs sont douces donc n'agressent pas les yeux contrairement au blanc qui est utilisé un peu trop devenant vif et éblouissant, c'est spacieux, très léger, aérien, c'est très très beau, bravo.
What an amazing collection of animals. The best I've seen so far.

Thank you for these sensational videos... Got an extreme desire to go on vacation... You really are a gifted cameraman 👍👍👍 really !!! It is a real pleasure to watch...thanks so much 💝
Very beautiful спасибо!
This was like entering a little adventure. Which starts when you enter the hotel door. Where you enter a litle castle, decorated in a fusion of Arabic-African style. The suites you showed in the video had beautiful colors. I liked it best with purple tones. Furthermore, you will be on a fantastic adventurous journey of all the fantastic creatures a jungle can show off. Another beautiful video, with beautiful pictures and music. Wonderfully good because I again forgot time and place, and I could dream away. A wonderful ending on a spectacular journey!
Enjoyed watching this flying out to Indonesia and the Philippines for work on Monday looking forward to going back to the Amanpulo and Nihi Sumba ,and basically getting back to work which I’ve missed and seeing clients that you’ve only been able to communicate to via FaceTime,,,which definitely not the same,,,,PEACE AND HAPPINESS AS ALWAYS LTE,,,,
Such an amazing abundance of wildlife! And a stressful environment for prey animals such as giraffes with all the lions about. Those cute lion cubs have got to eat and mom is on the hunt. And that is the way of the wild. As a human, I would definitely feel more safe in a fortress-like lodge such as Onguma--lol. I shall miss Nimibia--so beautifully presented to us by our master filmographer, Dr LTE. It's been a grand experience and it's nice to know I can re-visit any time I want to :)

as a senior giraffe, i take offense to your comments and wish the humans could feel my existential fears every minute of there lives so that they may live it as if it were there last. So much time is wasted by those who are privileged enough to think they have more of it.

@@Saki630 I love giraffes and it grieves me that they live in fear. And sharing their space with lions means giraffes and other animals are in constant danger, especially the little ones. I most certainly did not mean to offend you :(
So good your video

Hi Traveler. This lodge reminded me of Zighy Bay in Oman. That stay was worth its weight in gold for the animals seen, right? They were beautiful and majestic. Wonderful trip on the whole I might say. Thank you for my Saturday morning trip abroad.
wow, so beautiful. Btw I'm from Malaysia. Greetings From Malaysia👋

Ok, this might be a very stupid question. What keeps lions from jumping on the deck of that pool and eating you? I'll fully admit to camping in places where predators live but I also have bear spray (pepper spray) and my Smith and Wesson. You would think the liability would be high on that. I mean, as they say, it all fun and games until someone gets hurt!

Dodo here...Regular folks probably know the answer but.... Can't all the snakes and animals get into your room/suite/bungalow?!?😳 It sure looks super open to the 'public' ... Super awesome video as always!

The lodge is not fenced off so animals roam freely on the resort grounds (hence why the staff accompanies guests at night when walking around)

I have watched your videos and just wondering about fridges in the rooms, amenities in the rooms and also do the hotels have soft drinks? Just overwhelming. I would love to stay there. I was in the Cameroon doing charity work.Again this hotel seems too quiet.
Notice no curvature caused by the lens! This is (are) real dimensions; a lot of the accommodations are actually quite roomy... NICE. Question (not to spoil but I need to know!): How to 2 male giraffes do something about it? Proceed😇 carefully?
My opinion, after experiencing these kind of wildlife animal roaming around in the open freely surrounded by beautiful land, it would be difficult to go back to city ZOO.
Are you always travel alone? Can you give me tips to travel alone
what is the music in introduction? 😃
The landscape looks right out of 0 A.D.
You wrote it is not safe to move at night because there is no fence. Then what about daytime 😲?
Beautiful but I’d rather sit on a terrace and look out at the ocean rather than a savannah any day
How did you fly to their?
At 33:00, what's the name of the music?
Do they give guests complementary bear mace to ward off hungry animals?
