Glad you enjoyed it! Its an interesting area and one doesn't always know the history of area, you just drive around and look for animals.

Thank you for the video! Having moved down to the Cape a couple years ago it’s difficult to get to the Kruger as much as I would like so videos like these make me so happy! Keep up the fantastic content!

Its a pleasure! Happy you enjoy the videos! Stay tuned, I just returned from Mapungubwe and Punda Maria and had a fantastic trip, I can't wait to upload the vids. Moving far away from Kruger sucks, but at least you've got the mountain!

Excellent video....I love Pkop.....have been going to Kruger since 1947. Greetings from Monica.....George CP ❣

Thank you very much Monica. Wow, you must have some amazing memories of Kruger! Its interesting to see how many people either love the camp or hate it, no fence sitters for Pkop. Say hi to the beautiful Outeniqua Mountain for me!

I must say, you've done Pretoriuskop some much deserved justice. Many people see it as just a pit stop, but it has so much to offer in terms of scenery as you've just shown. My gosh, the Sable antelopes, I haven't seen any in ages. I love the ES Huts, they cost less and are a perfect alternative to camping. The Cheetahs with the burnt veld in the background is every photographers dream, they really gave you a show. I also love the S65, I bet your heart was pumping at the wild dogs' sighting, a few seconds are better than nothing, it happens. I'll definitely do Pretoriuskop soon, and use your video as a blueprint, 2 - 3 Nights should be enough for Pretoriuskop. Wonderfully put together, and the quality is superb. And you are very good with stability in your videos. Thank you Leon, regards Karabo.

Thanks for the kind words! Really appreciate it. Yes, Pretoriuskop isn't everyone's favourite camp, there definitely is 'more' to the camp than just the wildlife. Thanks, it really is a struggle to keep the stability levels decent! (you will know the struggle! its much harder than it looks😄) I agree, only a few nights is enough at Pretoriuskop, looking forward to your video!

Dit was heerlik om saam met julle 'te ry' 😊 Daar is maar net een plek wat soveel sielsvrede gee... Sien uit na baie meer van jou video's. 👌

Sounds amazing! You must, I enjoy reading and listening to old kruger stories!

Was the fire recent with logs smouldering? Lovely video with wonderful memories of all the Sable we saw on every drive back in the 1950s ❤️ Cheers from me in PE

I don't think it was very recent, which was quite interesting to see that a few logs and stumps were still smouldering. I didn't smell any smoke or fire to give an indication of a recent fire, it was also raining lightly at that moment. Thank you, sable is my favourite Kruger antelope! I am happy that the video rekindled some fond memories from previous trips! kind regards.

Waardeer dat jy nie musiek speel tydens die “sightings” nie. Dis lekker om die bosgeluide te hoor. Dankie vir jou video’s

Dis 'n plesier! Ek probeer my bes om so veel as moontlik bosgeluide in te sluit, want dis vir my net so belangrik soos die beeld. Ongelukkig is dit nie altyd moontlik nie want daars enjins, mense wat praat, gewone kamp geraas ens.

lieflik, thanks for taking me back to Pretoriuskop!

Only a pleasure! It's a part of the park that isn't everyone's cup of tea, but i think it is really underappreciated. Thanks for watching and commenting. Lekker!
