[@mukuru2341]

Hi Bruce! I like how you passionately narrate your Zimbabwean journeys (and other episodes detailing other places as well). Despite the numerous documented challenges bedeviling our nation, you choose to focus mainly on the vast potential this country has. Indeed you were born in Zimbabwe! Being in the diaspora, this is the closest one can go home after some time...lol! I hope you will go back to visit all the other amazing places,...looking forward to the next amazing episode, I am now an avid follower!

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Thanks very much Mukuru. I’m not a politician and I think everyone has enough media focusing on the negatives, because that’s what they do. I tell it as I see it and am not influenced by anyone except the people I meet along the way. So it’s well done to the Zimbabwean people for making me feel welcome and being so positive despite the hardships. I can not wait to go back and in fact if I hadn’t already paid for my trip to Botswana next month, I would be in Zimbabwe. Thank you for your comments and support.

hello guys. mana pools is the wildest park left in africa, besides matusadona, and perhaps the last one in the whole world. glad to know that you can showcase it to the world this way. as a native of this land, literally, we love it and respect it. we welcome the world to mana pools, the 4 pools with great history of the tonga people. welcome home, to mana pools.

Thank you Chamu. It is a spectacular place. Thank you for your positive comment and for watching

[@ncubesays]

Matusadona is pretty incredible and it's getting plenty of investment with way better road access. Visited at the height of the pandemic and it was special. I hear Chazarira next door is getting some love too. The whole area from Vic Falls through Binga upwards across the escarpment is very much unspoilt. The historical lands of the tonga people are blessed.

[@DTHButhelezi]

I love how authentic you are. Btw Ryan is absolutely right, you fix Beit Bridge border then a lot changes. That border is a nightmare in peak season, otherwise there's nothing else to worry about. Zimbabwe has always been beautiful, and I do believe it's "open for business". I got to visit again with my family, they've never been there.

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Best Bridge has been fixed on the Zim side and is much better than it was. It's quite impressive but there is still too much back and forth that is needed making it very inefficient. I wish they could do a border post like between the USA and Mexico. That would change everything. Thank you for watching.

Tatenda Bruce and the lads .. best time to see an abundance of wildlife at mana is August/September.. that’s when there is little standing water inland so the wildlife then are forced to the flood plain in search of water and they feast off the Albida pods which start dropping off in August onwards. I will be there first week of August and looking forward to it .. Gods heaven on earth “ it’s wild .. it’s natural and seems untouched as it is .. I am happy to sacrifice the comforts like running hot water etc for the views and that river is like nothing you will find around Africa. Thanks guys for enjoying this wonderful country.

I was fortunate to have visited Mana Pools some many years ago, hard to believe that it was 1994... I was on a camping trip with some friends, we worked at the US Embassy in Harare. I loved every minute of it and the wildlife was incredible! When I was there we saw many crocs. I didn't notice any in your video, are they still there? Thank you for sharing your videos.

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Awesome memory Darryl. There are still many crocs. Thank you for watching and commenting

Matopas is my old stomping ground would ride my bicycle from Bullawayo to Matopas on weekends. It's a great place. Problem with Zim parks now is fees are horrendous. Thanks for sharing your video.

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Park fees in the entire Southern Africa are high unfortunately. It is getting tougher for everyone to travel to these areas. Thank you for watching and commenting.
