Hi you Dust Bug Travellers, o my word what a fantastic yourney we had thank you so much for taking us on your kruger trip was fantastic Sonia I shed a few tears with you saying goodbye to the Kruger have a safe yourney home lots of love from a very very warm Mossel Bay x😊

[@DustBugsTravel]

And thank you for coming on this trip with the two of us! 🚙😁 It was such an incredible trip in so many ways and we were happy to share it with you. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed it as much as we did!

[@lee-anneadams9222]

❤❤❤ Curtis Sonia and Dusty, what an absolute privilage it was to share, enjoy and celebrate this journey with you. Thank you so very much for all the footage, for all your commentary, Sonia you are now a qualified spotter, thanks so much guys, this was one for the books!! Safe travels 🥾

[@DustBugsTravel]

Sonia gladly accepts that title and thanks you for it. 😍 I'm so glad you enjoyed this incredible trip with the three of us. It was really fantastic to have you on board every kilometre of the way. We've made memories that will last us a lifetime. Thank you for travelling with us! 🚙🤩

[@lee-anneadams9222]

@@DustBugsTravel I'm so stoked that I was introduced to you via FB and could start all the way back at episode 1, and still be with you now via KZbin ❤️❤️🥾🥾

[@mrstukutela5126]

This series of episodes has been an absolute treat for me .

[@vimilchar]

Oh dear, can I now also cry. 😢 What an amazing trip this was. Excitement! Anticipation, Nervousness at times, Sadness over the roadkill and alas Looking forward to new adventures! 🤗🤗🤗 You guys are brave and amazing 👏 ❤️

[@DustBugsTravel]

You may indeed also shed a tear or two. 😥 It was super sad to leave our beloved Kruger behind. Thank you for taking the time to watch our videos and share in our experiences, your kind words of encouragement mean so much to us. We look forward to sharing our new adventures with you too! 🚙🤩

[@beryl9538]

Thank you Sonja and Curtis for the Kruger National Park journey. I enjoyed every second of each episode. From the animals, birds, trees, bridges, rocks and so much more. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I look forward to the next journey.❤❤

[@DustBugsTravel]

Thank you for hopping on board each time! You listed a whole lot of things we love so much and we were very happy to share those with you. We look forward to sharing our new adventures with you soon too! 🚙🤩

[@1812nico]

Hi you two! Three weeks in Kruger Park! Thank you for taking me along on this fabulous holiday. This last episode really is tops, with the abundance of everything - lions, elephant, rivers, giraffe, birds, history ...... . All captured with outstanding photography. I don't know where you will be travelling next, but I will be ready as soon as you start the car. Keep safe!

[@DustBugsTravel]

Three magical weeks in our favourite place! 🚙😍 Thank you for joining us on every kilometre as we explored the wonder of Kruger. I'm so happy you enjoyed it with us, we always appreciate your company. I'm having a cuppa just for you! ☕ We look forward to sharing our next adventures with you!

[@thewanderer58]

What an awesome journey from the North to the South of the KNP you took us all on. My sincere appreciation for sharing it with us. I'm going to miss "tuning-in" to your KNP postings daily. I hope your travel back home to the Strand was uneventful. Join me for a coffee in Stilbaai en route next time 😊. I'm already looking forward to your next journey .....😏 I end with this quote from Anthony Robbins - "The only impossible journey is the one you never begin".

[@DustBugsTravel]

Thank you for sharing that quote. We'll begin a new journey, albeit a little different, very soon and can't wait to share our next adventures with you again. 🚙🤩 I appreciate you tuning in every time and enjoying the magic of Kruger with us.

[@mrstukutela5126]

The elephant is my favourite of the big 5. about 20 years ago we went on a steam train trip to Numbi gate and I saw a dead elephant in the bush. I cried for nearly a week.

[@charlietreston4035]

Hi guys thanks for this amazing opportunity to share your Kruger adventure you've been so blessed with your sightings mind blowing plus all the history back to 1725 I felt sad for you both leaving this wonderful place I've enjoyed every minute and couldn't have been in better company as always thanks for taking me along cheerio till the next one

[@DustBugsTravel]

Thank you for gracing us with your company in each episode as we explored a different part of this magical place. 🚙😍 It's always fun when you join us and I look forward to sharing our new adventures with you soon!

[@justinereynolds9212]

Thank you so, so, so much for sharing your wonderful trip to Kruger with us all. I couldn't wait for your epsidoes. I am so sorry that your last hours were marred by such a sad and unnecessary experience with the roller. I absolutely adore your commentary, Sonja and Curtis (apologies if I have misspelled your names). You had so many special experiences, and I am grateful to have shared them with you. Your noisy beetle on your last evening was a cicada. The four young male lions in the road were skinny, but not exceptionally so. Life is tough for young males ejected from their pride when they have to strike out for themselves; young and inexperienced lions often go hungry, and more so for males as the females do most of the hunting. Thank you again for sharing your time in the park, especially for those of us that are unable to visit. And thank you for each camp tour, Curtis. It was invaluable. I am crying with you, Sonja.

[@DustBugsTravel]

It was our pleasure to share this incredible trip with you. Thank you for hopping on board every time and enjoying it with us. 🚙🤩 (Just so you know, Sonia is with an 'i', but that kind of thing is not really importnt to us. 😁)

[@justinereynolds9212]

Thank you for your reply. That's awesome. And I will definitely remember the spelling 😊; thanks for letting me know.

[@jimclarke8225]

WHAT AN END TO AN EPIC TRIP😂😂. Thanks so much for the last three weeks. Kiwi Jim

[@DustBugsTravel]

Our pleasure! 😁 Thank you for joining us as we travelled through this favourite place of ours. 🚙😍

[@AnikaVanWyk]

Thank you Curtis and Sonja for taking me with you on your trip to Kruger. I never had the opportunity to go there. Have a safe trip home. 😢

[@DustBugsTravel]

Now you can say that you've also been to Kruger! 🚙😁 It was our pleasure to show you the most special place on earth and I'm so happy to hear you enjoyed it with us.

[@maureenrule8244]

Thank you both for sharing your adventures. Cannot wait to go in May.

[@beryl9538]

I have to comment on the camera picture quality, absolutely crystal clear. The lions what an end for your Kruger journey. Wow.❤

[@johangouws8855]

Thank you folks, I have seen more of the park, more of the animals through your eyes than I’ve ever seen myself. This was a wonderful trip….. safe drive home.

[@DustBugsTravel]

We were indeed spoilt with some incredible sightings, which are forever engraved in our memories. We're glad that we could share them and the rest of Kruger with you. Thank you so much for taking the time to travel with us! 🚙🤩

[@joh5073]

I love watching all your videos of South Africa, your Kruger National Park adventure was exceptional. My dream is to do what you guys have just done. How long in advance did you book all your accommodations in the KNP, in order to stay at all the camps?

[@DustBugsTravel]

Thank you, I'm glad to hear that you enjoy our videos. The beauty of South Africa, and especially Kruger, has to be shared and we're totally happy to do it! 😍🇿🇦 Because of work obligations and because we knew we'd be away from home and the office for about 3,5 weeks, so we couldn't plan this trip long in advance. It became clear ten days before our departure that we would be able to make it happen. Sonia started playing around on sanparks.org immediately and we were super lucky to secure accommodation in all the camps we wanted to stay in and also in the order that I wanted to travel through the Park. Summer must be the least popular time of year in Kruger because of the intense heat at times, so I think a lot of folks avoid going during these months. Accommodation was still available and the Park was very quiet in the northern parts. I hope you can make your dream come true, you'll have the time of your life! Safe travels! 🚙🤩

[@barendvanderwatt1173]

I cry every time I leave Kruger. Thank you for allowing us to join your adventure.

[@DustBugsTravel]

There were quite a few tears in the car that day, it's good to know you feel the same when you leave that magical place. 😥 Many thanks to you for following along as we explored the beauty of Kruger. 🚙😍

[@renewittstock171]

Thank you so much to the three of you for sharing a wonderful trip with all of your viewers. I shed tears with you. You are such an awesome couple. ❤

[@DustBugsTravel]

Yes, many tears were shed that day, we were extremely sad to leave. 😥 I appreciate your kind words and I'm very happy to hear that you enjoyed this trip with us. 🚙😍

[@brianblyth9790]

Thank you Curtis and Sonja for sharing your journey through the Kruger National Park, my favorite place on this planet we live on. You were treated with really fantastic game viewing. It's taken me a lifetime to see the game you have seen on your trip. Safe travels back to the Strand

[@DustBugsTravel]

We have something major in common, it's our favourite place on this planet too! 🚙😍 Thank you for jumping on our backseat and enjoying the magic of Kruger with us.

[@Krugerholic]

Thank you so much for taking us with you on your incredible journey. I enjoyed every minute of it. I always cry when I finally land at Skukuza after a long journey and I cry again when I leave, Kruger does that.

[@DustBugsTravel]

You said it. Kruger does that. Every single time. ❤️ I appreciate you travelling through the Park with us, it was in one word magical. 🚙🤩

[@TembaNcube]

Thank you so much Sonja , Curtis & Dusty for the journey & adventures in the vast expanse of the Kruger National Park . This is what life is truly about . The freedom it brings out there while @ one with nature . Been watching your uploads from London 🇬🇧❤️

[@carolmccorry3053]

Thanks for the work of art, you painted so far. Oh if l dared to call it the best ever look, at your country , a place that you roam.a great treasure you have shown us what is your home. The laughter, the tears, the thigh gripping terror as Kurt's go to near,Sonja trepidation of holy roads, plus don't go to near. Your room reviews of the places you slept and the food you chatted about as though it were a feast. The tourist mob will be after you to put on a show, because you both are great thanks for the journey from your Australian mate.🎄 🐘 🦁 warthog 🐽 🐦 🦒 🦓 🙊 🐢 honeybadgers 🦏 gazelle antelopes ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@DustBugsTravel]

Thank you for your very kind words and for taking this journey with us. It was indeed a memorable one filled with lots of emotions, of which happiness was present almost all of the time. It's a special place and we were happy to share our time in Kruger with you. 🚙😍 We do live in a beautiful country. 🇿🇦

[@francoispieterse7371]

Thanks Dust Bugs it was an awesome trip for you and us the viewers.Safe yourney ahead as we continue to travel with you.

[@DustBugsTravel]

Thank you for joining us, I'm glad you enjoyed the trip. We look forward to sharing what we get up to next with you very soon! 🚙😁

[@stanleyrobson4622]

I have learned a lot from your trip. You are obviously seasoned travelers. I'd love to see a short video dedicated to DO's and DON'Ts and tips for newbies wanting to have an awesome trip to the Kruger. Could be awesome too.Take care. God bless.

[@DustBugsTravel]

Thank you, I'm glad you found our Kruger videos informative. 👌🏼 We are indeed seasoned travellers, but by no means experts and still wing it for the most part which adds to the experience for us. 🚙😁

[@susannaemmerich1166]

All I can say from the heart is thank you very much. Travel safely and God bless.🙃🙏🎶🎶🎶🤗🤗❤

[@DustBugsTravel]

And thanks to you for travelling along with us through our favourite place. It was a magical experience. 🚙😍

[@funkdunk]

Thank-you Curtis and Sonia for sharing your special trip with us...I have to admit that your series which was incredible, has definitely been the catalyst for my wanting to visit again, I was last there in the late 90s...many moons ago...the footage was excellent, your interactions heartwarming and honest and I definitely felt heartsore when you drove out. They say that if a cinematographer is able to convey raw emotion to the audience, then that is true greatness...and that's exactly what you have achieved...

[@DustBugsTravel]

And thank you for taking up your usual spot right there on our backseat as we took this special and, at times rather emotional, trip. It was truly incredible in so many ways and we were happy, as always, to share it with you. 🚙😍 Your kind words mean more to me than you know. My wish for you is that you get to experience the magic of Kruger soon again. And I'll be jealous when you do, but in the best way possible. 😁

[@axelmertens7762]

I shared your heartache when you left the best place on earth -Kruger Park ! Thank you for taking us on a trip of a lifetime and seeing all the beautiful animals and places - the history and how and who shaped the place! Thank you and save travels home and now my eyes at my age of 69 are getting moist here in the furthest corner of the world NZ!

[@DustBugsTravel]

Greetings to you in NZ! Yes, the heartache was real! 😥 I appreciate you taking the time to travel with us through Kruger, it was an incredible experience! If I remember correctly and you're travelling to our shores soon, safe and happy travels! 🇿🇦😍

[@dawnf6617]

Gosh, those 21 days went by so fast. I really enjoyed your experience of the KNP. I have watched quite a few of your other videos, travelling to other parts of SA. Thank you to you both ❤❤

[@DustBugsTravel]

They say time flies when you're having fun and it's even truer in Kruger! It was over before we knew it! 😥 I'm glad you enjoyed travelling with us, thank you for coming along. We have a beautiful country and it has to be shared with as many folks as possible. 🚙🇿🇦

[@wildchild6247]

I shared your excitement when you entered Pafuri gate and I just cried with you both when you left I feel the exact sane emotions its the worst feeling leaving Kruger. Thank you for the episodes it made our nights when we weren't able to go away this holiday. I cant believe how many lions and leopards you saw you guys were so blessed with all your sightings. Looking forward to your next adventure I'm going to miss the Kruger too 😢

[@DustBugsTravel]

Yes, we'll never quite get used to the extreme highs when one enters Kruger (🤩) and the lowest lows when one exits. 😥 I'm so happy to hear that our videos provided some sort of escape during the holiday season, albeit virtually. Rest assured, you were right there on our backseat every kilometre through that magical place. Thank you for joining us! 🚙😍

[@wildchild6247]

❤@@DustBugsTravel

[@lindakukard1557]

Thank you guys for taking us on your amazing trip to the Kruger. Sad to say goodbye 😢 Safe travels home. I have never been to the Kruger, but will definitely make a plan now after watching your awesome videos. Thanks again 😊

[@DustBugsTravel]

If you visit one new place this year, make it Kruger. You will love, love, love it. Thank you for coming along on our trip, it was fun showing you around! 🚙😁

[@rosemarymoolman6765]

Thank you so much for all the enjoyment and happy moments in the KNP. Crocodile Bridge brought back so many memories of my last trip there with my late parents. We stayed in chalet no 9. You saw so many animals through your whole trip. The tears started rolling when you said animals came to say goodbye to you and then it just carried on when Sonia started crying. I have grown to love you both. Thank you for this special trip and be blessed. ❤❤

[@DustBugsTravel]

I can only imagine how emotional it must've been for you. 😥 There was a lot of sadness in our hearts that day when we had to leave. Thank you for being on our backseat throughout this journey, your company is always appreciated. 🚙😍

[@laliedutoit]

Brilliant Series of the Kruger National Park and its wildlife by two people that make me feel at home again. This as well as the videos portraying the beauty of South African Towns is such a great service to South Africa's tourism industry. Thanks a million.🍺👍🥇

[@DustBugsTravel]

Thank you for your support all along this journey, it was fun having you on board. 🤩 I'm happy to hear you enjoyed this trip, which was an incredible one for us as well. The beauty of Kruger and our country as a whole has to be shared and we're happy to make a small contribution to those efforts. 🚙🇿🇦

[@annaatkins2971]

I was so sad when you left 😢 because that means I left too . Thanks for sharing your Kruger trip with us xxxx

[@DustBugsTravel]

Yes, there were a few super sad moments in our vehicle as we exited at the Crocodile Bridge Gate. 😥 I'm glad you enjoyed our trip through this magical place, thank you for joining us. 🚙😁

[@tonygrant06]

Wow guys what a trip of pure joy and more . What a trip people can only dream off . I know your home now but hope you had a safe journey. I’m to your fantastic country tomorrow and staying in Table View the weather looks awesome.😊😊😊

[@DustBugsTravel]

The weather is indeed awesome! 😁☀️ I wish you a fantastic trip and may you enjoy every single second in our beautiful country! Safe travels! 😍🇿🇦 I appreciate you joining us in Kruger!

[@renecrouse572]

Hi the my Dustbugs, Sony I cried with you. You two gave me something to look forward to each time and then could not wait for your next post. Curtis thank you for your good camera work. Love you two lots and have a save trip home. Can't wait to see where we going to visit next❤

[@DustBugsTravel]

Thank you for sharing in our sadness, but also our joy as we travelled through this incredible place. It was great to have you on board as we witnessed the miracle of nature all around us. 💚 You don't have to wait too long for the next adventure! 🚙😁

[@dawnbarnes1361]

You Guys had a lovely send off with the Lions, Elephants and Monkies it was Fantastic!! Thank you so much❤🎉 Loved Crocodile 🐊 Bridge 🌉 I salute you both 🫡

[@DustBugsTravel]

We felt like the wildlife were all coming to say goodbye, which made the last few hours all the more special. 🦁🐒🐘 I'm very happy to hear you enjoyed this trip with us. Like you, we will certainly revisit the Park through our videos again and again. Thank you for tagging along, as always! 🚙😍

[@dawnbarnes1361]

@DustBugsTravel 🤗 just want to mention I have been craving the Nutty Buddy Ice Cream since you 2 bragged with yours a few times 😃 I have never had one with a Chocolate Flake in the Centre (I love Choc Flakes too) 🤣

[@claudettehancocks1715]

Fabulous series on Kruger. We have never been there, but after seeing these videos we mow know where to go. Thanks so much for taking us along for the ride.❤

[@DustBugsTravel]

I hope you have the opportunity to visit that magical place, you will fall in love! 😍 Thank you for taking a drive through this special place with the two of us, it was our pleasure to show you around. 🚙🤩

[@LolaEngelbrecht]

Thank you so much for taking us with on this epic trip. Love, love, love the Kruger.❤

[@dawnbarnes1361]

A lovely trip again Guys !! Lions were Awesome and all the other sitings 🎉 Fantastic! Going to miss the KNP big time 😢 But I can always watch your videos again Yahooo ❤ Hope you both are well 🤗🥰

[@sicko_the_ew]

Wow! What a trip! It's incredible how much you managed to see every day. Normally there are quiet days where you need to start doing things like stopping to appreciate how beautiful the impala are all over again, but I suppose you must've laughed and thought, "You ain't seen nothin yet", when I made my little joke about you being there during the Great Lion Plague of 2023 several episodes back. It's not all about the lion, but it's amazing when one sees them. Park is looking nice and full of life (although there might be visibly less rhino, now - hopefully temporarily, now they've caught the head of the rhino mafia in Nelspruit). Thanks for sharing it. Makes me feel like I was there, too, sitting in the back next to Dusty. Even the food tasted good.

[@DustBugsTravel]

Now that's one plague we'll never complain about! 🦁 Thank you for joining us on each leg of this trip through Big Cat Country, it's good to hear you enjoyed this incredible trip with us! 🚙😁 Good news about the rhino mafia guy, it would be amazing to see more of these magnificent animals on a return visit. 🦏😍

[@dawn8244]

Thank you for the amazing opportunity to see the Kruger National Park. Never got to see it when we were living in South Africa.

[@DustBugsTravel]

I'm so glad we could show you Kruger through our eyes. 🚙😍 Thank you for coming along!

[@mariusroos]

Thank you for a very nice and interesting trip. Kruger is so amazing and offers so much. I also love the shops you shows us and to browse on the goods for sale. A trip well done. I am on board for the next one

[@DustBugsTravel]

I am so happy to hear that you enjoyed Kruger with us. You're so right, that incredible place offers us as visitors so much, it's fantastic! 🚙😍 Thank you for your company on this trip, I appreciate it!

[@sadzasnake1755]

Wonderful episode indeed. Made me very homesick for Mother Africa indeed. Honestly I could almost smell the bush. Some incredible photography as well. Sonya never ever apologise for your emotions. Your love for Africa is worth shedding a tear for. Bless you. Take care both of you. Dankie. Ken Australia 🇦🇺

[@aislingbooks]

Thank you so much. You were indeed so very lucky to have had this 3 week experience: stunning views and amazing animals 🥰

[@DustBugsTravel]

And thank you for joining us in our special place. After an absence of 19 years, our time there was absolutely wonderful. Even now, not a single day goes by without us vividly recalling some or other memory. 🚙😍

[@stephenbright9316]

Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to relive my childhood again back in the late 1970's / early 1980's, back then the prices of the rondavels, restaurants and shop prices accommodated the locals, it appears now that the prices are aimed at those people from overseas, spending dollars and pounds, which is actually quite sad, but anyway, you whipped out the tent and toasted saamies and you didn't let finances stand in your way, as you guys say over there........ ''n boer maak 'n plan!' Thank you.

[@DustBugsTravel]

The magic from the 70's and 80's is still there. 👌🏼 It's certainly not cheap anymore, that much is true, but it was worth every penny and we'll do it again in a heartbeat. I appreciate you coming back to Kruger with us! 🚙😍

[@etiennebeukes9384]

If you have not been to Kruger, you will not understand how emotional it is when the time comes to leave. We feel your sadness 😢 thank you for taking us on the journey. You guys really had some amazing sighting! The reason the entrance changed at Crocodile bridge is due to the huge amount of people entering at this gate, especially during the school holidays. One of the causes is Marloth park which is a huge holiday town outside the park. The wait to get in can be as long as 5hours and the queue of cars goes on for 5 Kms. We were unlucky to get caught up in the queue one year.

[@stevep7476]

Oh man, I know that feeling of leaving Kruger. It's a wrench alright. Such a magical place and never enough time. Thank you both for bringing back memories of my time there.

[@frederikbrits9559]

Frans de Kuyper was the first white man to step on Transvaal soil. The Dutch shortly after 1725 gave Delagoa BAY over to the Portuquese

[@ingeborgvanderveer789]

Het geluid van een dier omschrijven als ware het een muziek instrument … mooi gesproken Sonia! Dat luipaard toonde zichzelf terecht van alle kanten, wetende dat zijn zowel rechtsom als linksom op/over die boomtak hangen zeker in deze episode getoond ging worden 😄🐆. Dit laatste stukje door Kruger Park was even aangenaam verpozen als alle voorgaande episodes. Het worden vast evergreens op KZbin. Heel wat giraffes zullen ook jullie missen bij het oversteken van de weg 😂, wat een ‘portretten’ zijn deze gracieuze dieren. Die schildpad liet even zien dat hij harder kan lopen dan zijn soortgenoten toegerekend wordt en dat komische moment legde je mooi vast🐢. Geweldig dat een stukje VOC geschiedenis voorbij kwam en nog wel van een datum die gelijk is aan mijn geboortedag (met 246 jaar verschil 😊). Dat fort Lijdzaamheid had wel een toepasselijke naam gezien men daar naartoe moest vluchten en ‘lijdzaam afwachten’ is mijn vermoeden van wat komen zou. Dank voor alle mooie beelden en avonturen door deze prachtige unieke wildtuin 🇿🇦🦏🦛🦓🦒🐘. En nu op naar …. Ik ben benieuwd wat volgend moois jullie voor ons in petto hebben!!

[@DustBugsTravel]

I'm always so happy when I read your comments and hear that you still enjoy travelling with us. Thank you for doing so once again on this deeply-special trip, we truly value your company. 🚙🤩 The giraffe and all the other beautiful creatures won't miss us half as much as we miss them every single day. We transport ourselves back to the Park several times a day, even for just a moment. That eases some of the longing. 🦒😍

[@loksterization]

Thank you so much for sharing your intimate Kruger special times with us, I'm watching all of them, they are so good. The best on KZbin.

[@peterestment4126]

Thank you, delightful series of videos.

[@DustBugsTravel]

Appreciate that! It's fantastic that you joined us. 🚙😁

[@GailNetherlands]

Curtis and Sonia, Thank you so much for the trip through Kruger. I have learnt so much about spotting from you guys. My heart went out to you when you left camp for home. I was crying with you. I love your travels and look forward to the latest one🎉 you are bringing out. Travel safe!

[@maricharlesscheepers3924]

It was our pleasure to share our Kruger experience with you! Thank you for hopping on board and for joining us throughout, it was great fun! 🚙😁

[@flodillon991]

This was amazing l really was so glad to see all these animals. The lions in the road were beautiful and all those elephants was worried for that motorist that didn't reverse but all was well. Now l can say l was there as well. Thank you.❤

[@salt.and.light.]

I just want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking us on this wonderful journey through the Kruger Park, we have eagerly awaited and then watched every episode of this very special trip. Really hoping that you will visit other game reserves in a similar way because you have really started something now 😄❤

[@DustBugsTravel]

I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed this trip as much as we did! 🚙😍 For us, there is only one Kruger and, while we love all Nature Reserves and National Parks and will visit them when possible, we don't know of any others that will lend themselves to another epic three-week trip such as this.

[@yvonnecoetzee3508]

I cried with you Sonja, I know the feeling, very happy that you had a good holiday in the KNP

[@DustBugsTravel]

Yes, it's never easy leaving Kruger and this time was no different. 😥 We had a fantastic time, thank you for travelling through Kruger with us. 🚙😁

[@thabo9861]

Thank you ❤ every minute of the park.

[@tillabezuidenhout6460]

As it's the last one I am going to enjoy it very much!!!

[@DustBugsTravel]

The last one in the Park, yes. We'll be taking you with us on the road home though in the next episode, so I hope you enjoy that one too! 🚙🛣️

[@eksteinmalan3517]

Nooo. I'm going to miss your Kruger videos. 💔 Adjusting to life afterwards is the worst. The main reason why I'm moving to the Nelspruit next year..

[@DustBugsTravel]

Oh, how lucky you are! Less than an hour's drive away from Kruger, now that would be a dream come true! Thank you for watching our videos! 🚙😁

[@mrstukutela5126]

Come and take ent my house in Mpumalanga and you can enjoy the Kruger once a month if you wish!

[@AnnemarieWillcox]

Thankyou so much for your journey. It was the highlight end of 2023 and a fantastic start of 2024 for me. watching you from Burnham-on-se with -2 this morning

Baie dankie vir jul video's. Ek was saam jul op vakansie. Ja nee jul moet nie weer so lank vat om terug te gaan na die PARADYS toe nie. Ek gaan 3 keer ñ jaar wildtuin toe en ek sal depro raak as ek net ñ jaar nie daar uitkom nie. Ja nee ek weet hoe voel dit as so ñ avontuur tot ñ einde kom en mens ry uit die park, hoe mens ñ hengse depro slaan. Maar gelukkig tot die volgende keer!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

I don't blame you for missing the Lowveld, it's such a beautiful part of our country. Thank you for joining us in Kruger! 🚙🤩

Did you come across any sables

[@DustBugsTravel]

We sadly didn't see any sable this time around, no. They're such magnificent antelope, we would've loved to see them. 🦌😍

Would you say it's possible to do this trip in a VW Polo? Are there alternate tar roads to reach the camp? I really enjoyed following along on your trip.

[@DustBugsTravel]

Absolutely! You'll be totally fine in a Polo! 🚙😁 If you stay in the major camps, you could only travel on tar if you so prefer. You'll just have to plan your itinerary carefully so that you don't have to take long detours if you avoid gravel roads. You'll have a ball! Thank you for following our Kruger journey, it was fantastic!

[@mrstukutela5126]

How many kilometrs have you covered from north to south?

[@DustBugsTravel]

I didn't keep track of the total kilometres travelled in the Park itself, but I feel a good guesstimate would be about 3000 km's. 🚙😁

[@annawitter5161]

Yay gravel! Aha! A tortoise! Now that has made my day. Ja, hy loop so wydsbeen! They have hard horny feet so I doubt that he will feel the road heat. That leopard looks so relaxed! If she (I think so) relaxed more she would fall to bits. Nothing relaxes like a cat. The lions in the road are just amazing. You got up really close to them and they were not bothered at all. Brilliant. The younger males dont have manes. But definitely some spherical bits. WEll they are cats, and they also eat grass to keep the digestive system healthy. What huge paws they have. One wack from a paw can break an antelopes neck.

[@DustBugsTravel]

It was awesome to spend so much time close-up with those gorgeous lions! 🚙🦁

Such a great trip, thanks guys. Not sure how you gonna top this hey 😉. But jokes aside, that sunrise photo was stunning, poster material...29:40 point in the video.

[@DustBugsTravel]

Nothing can ever top Kruger, that's for sure. So I won't even try! 😁 I'm glad you enjoyed the trip with us, I always appreciate when you join us on our travels. It was an incredible trip with so many memorable moments that we were happy to share with you. Let's hope you enjoy our next adventures at least half as much! 🚙🤩
