Your video production and editing skills are exceptional. Know it ties a lot of work and talent to produce the high quality videos you give us so thanks.

[@johnwakefield9378]

That night shot near the very end of video was incredible so many stars visible.

[@JumpingPlaces]

Thanks!

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Indeed. One of my fav youtuber

[@adrianapettit7798]

I agree 100%

[@mskq4409]

Absolutely 5 STAR content!!

[@giannishen]

Wow ~ Congratulations on arriving in a new country and embarking on an extraordinary journey! The wind there is so strong, I can imagine that you didn't get a good sleep there! Although the desert there is so beautiful, it is also a bit scary because I am afraid of getting lost or lack of water, or monsters may appear! Well, I've probably been influenced by a lot of movies! Some trees look like open palms from a distance. Perhaps they were transformed by the gods in Greek mythology who came here thousands of years ago! You are lucky, you arrived late but saved the food, maybe God really helped you! I have to say that you had the same lunch again this episode, which is rare. Congratulations! The sunset and starry sky there are particularly beautiful, thank you for sharing! 👍😍🙌

[@JumpingPlaces]

Yes the other nights were better when we set up the tent better for ventilation 😊

[@giannishen]

@@JumpingPlaces Thanks a lot for telling me, you are very nice! Take good care! Happy travels! 👍🥰🙏

[@jorgemoll5994]

What a surprise...from Morocco to Namibia. A very unique and exotic country!! Thanks for showing!!

[@spacecoastaesthetics6990]

People don't realize how hard it is to walk in Sand Dunes. It's like walking in thick deep snow and makes hiking in the high mountains seem easy. I've done it and was surprised at how difficult it was and how much energy it takes. You two are very fit.

[@JumpingPlaces]

It's a killer, super exhausting!

[@Fiola_M]

Yes i think walking in snow is easier frankly!

[@TheTimeandagain]

You guys have the best travel channel ever.

[@JumpingPlaces]

Wow that's quite the complement, thanks!

[@Fiola_M]

They really are..consistently great content!

[@porfiriato84]

Yeah. Their Peru videos gave me the courage to book a trip there in May 😊

[@EdCNJ]

The moment I saw the intro to the video, I immeidately had to watch this series on my TV. It’s insanely beautiful, WOW what a trip!!

[@richlopez5896]

I'm a desert-dweller from Arizona in the USA. You don't see a drastic drop in night temps in the desert in the summer. That would go for the summer in the desert of Namibia as well. Make sure to drink water even when you are not thirsty.

[@JumpingPlaces]

Thanks for the info 😁👍

[@KingoftheNorth56]

Never realized how beautiful the Namibian desert looked, Carols new toy (lens) looks like she’ll be able to take breath taking photos…enjoy your visit and Thanks for keeping us entertained with your beautiful videos.👍👍

[@helennuttall]

Have always admired your versatility, sense of adventure, trying new things and not minding going back to basics! This is amazing. Carole that was such a good choice of scarf colour 😁👍🥰

[@JumpingPlaces]

Cheers, we didn't think about the fact that it would match this place when she bought the scarf in Marrakesh, a nice coincidence lol

[@helennuttall]

@@JumpingPlaces so much better than the green one! 😂

[@dennisdaniels2992]

Congratulations on arriving in a new country and remarkable journey, Chris and Carol!

[@JumpingPlaces]

Thank you! 😃

[@robcroese]

Very nice video of the Namib desert. Excellent drone work! I was there on the motorcycle in January 2011. They had just outlawed motorcycle entry into the Park area and we had to hire a driver and Landrover. A flash flood caused the gullies to fill (no bridges) and the Landrover tried to cross one and drowned the Diesel engine. Later on the road to Windhoek I tipped over the motorcycle in a flooded gully and drowned my Blackberry phone and Nikon camera. 😞

[@JumpingPlaces]

Sounds like an experience!

[@christicostigan]

Love the entire vid, as always but the shot of the milkyway was spectacular.

[@JumpingPlaces]

A special moment :D

[@thomasstepper5885]

The colours of the namib - wow

[@dynastyduck3799]

So nice to see you guys getting out of your comfort zone; thank you for taking us with; I really commend you for keeping fit, or none of these trips would be possible; beautiful dunes, landscape, and temp; awesome vlog guys; happy travels :)

[@JumpingPlaces]

Thank you so much!

[@walex19]

Glad yall went to Namibia! Was there in 2022. My favorite place on earth.

[@HenockKanghono]

Dude the big Daddy run is wayyyy scarier then you thing!

[@capstone9173]

Bom dia! Your videos are next level. Obrigado! You rough it in places I will likely never visit. Carol is obviously a Brasileira…. Doesn’t matter if you are in the most remote sandy dusty place on Earth…Carol will be dressed like she just walked out of a fashion boutique.

[@roberth7894]

Very interesting desert scenes. The area with the old dead trees reminds me of some Salvador Dali paintings! I've learned to appreciate the beauty and life in desert environments, but they are harsh places to visit and you have to be prepared!

[@JumpingPlaces]

There is definitely a unique feeling being in these kind of deserts, but as you mentioned you also feel a sense of danger for sure with the extreme temps

[@stephenzane1247]

Awesome video. My three highlights were Chis running down the dune, Carol filming the animals close up , and that amazing star studded night sky.😍

[@aristotleaquino3067]

These videos keep getting better and better. Thanks for sharing all these experiences.

[@AlexBondSmith]

Thanks for this. I live in South Africa next to Namibia so I have quite a few friends who have traveled there. Your footage is definitely the best I have ever seen of the country. Really outstanding. I look forward to seeing more.🎉

[@sudhakarg1000]

Wow, that's an amazing episode Chris & Carol. Namibia looks great. Always liked your videos. You keep it clutter free & no nonsense. Keep showing us the world. Thanks.

[@gonemadinnz]

I loved these videos about Namibia. Bought back great memories of visiting these locations. You would love the Okavango in Botswana. Your videos are awesome! Thank you!

[@franberes7641]

Wow! Incredibly beautiful video! Carol, you made a great investment with that telephoto lens! 💥💥💥💯💥💥

[@jeannetteweisskopf8736]

The best travel scenery ever including both of you… thank you for sharing.😊

[@elainefarrar]

Great video with beautiful photography 😀 I did a similar trip in August 2005, nice to see it hasn't changed at all. Temperatures in the winter are around 26c during the day but drop to freezing at night which is better for sleeping and it's dry so easier to spot the animals. Happy memories 😊

[@maritkjn505]

Wow, so beautiful. Those trees in the desert looked like a painting ☺ And the pool seemed very welcomed after that hot tour. Stay safe you two ♥♥

[@erichjacobs809]

You must camp at Sesriem Campsite, can then drive to Sossusvlei a lot earlier. We watch the sunrise from the top of Dune 45 on our honeymoon

[@AmberleyDamases-mi1tf]

Thank you for visiting our beautiful country, the Land of the Brave 🇳🇦❤

[@mike7167]

Namibia was part of South Africa back in the day, and we had a army base there, we used to have to run up and down dune7(big daddy} also leopard crawl up an down as part of our training

[@mubzd22]

Hey guys!! Big fans from South Africa 🇿🇦 and welcome to Southern Africa ! Your car is actually called a ‘bakkie’ 😅😂 Any chance that you gonna visit South Africa 🇿🇦?

[@JumpingPlaces]

Cape Town is after this :D

[@volkereggert-sr7fh]

Well done, excellent photography and a true reflection of Sossusvlei. I love this place and have visited it several times...your video brought back good memories, thank you.

[@mmxperformance8397]

Namibia is truly amazing! Thanks for sharing guys 🙏

[@tally1604]

I would be interested in knowing more about how you got from Morocco to Namibia. Must have been a trip and a half. I, for one, love travel day videos. It's all about the journey, not just the destinations.

[@JumpingPlaces]

We went to Lisbon but we stayed 4 days there and had a break, just did laptop work and met Chris’ parents. From Lisbon we got a connection flight in Angola to namibia

[@natet5959]

Gorgeous scenery! I like the direct and easy going presentation too.

[@diarmuidlong5540]

Safe travels, as usual stunning videos, you both seem to blend in ,to every country you travel to.

[@JumpingPlaces]

Thanks! 😃

[@99sclark]

Amazing! One of my favourite countries on earth. Have a great time!

[@2005Jaguar]

Spectacular. We have wanted to visit this area for so long. Thanks for bringing us along. Hopefully we will get there ourselves soon. Safe travels!

[@janakotrcova2790]

Those dead trees,acacias,in the red dunes are wonderful experience,I wish you many more such breathtaking ones,that Namibia has to offer.👍

[@suewellings4500]

Absolutely breathtaking! Thank you so much for sharing your experiences so far. It takes me back to travels with my husband in Tanzania in the 80’s. I hope you move on to that country. After seeing your video of travels in the 4x4 so far, makes us want to visit Namibia. It looks so beautiful and unspoiled. If you do move on to Tanzania, I would be happy to give some recommendations as to where to visit. Thank you so much for taking us back to Africa thru your travels. ❤

[@JumpingPlaces]

We won’t make it there on this trip but we definitely want to in the future

[@andymurday4538]

Awesome Video. The landscape of Namibia is stunning.

[@Fiola_M]

What a gorgeous place. You are brave souls..driving alone in the middle of nowhere. Chris your shoulders are crispy looking. What a lovely adventure! Omg the sky at night..just like in the arabian desert! Loved the drone shots when u were driving..just amazing!

[@JumpingPlaces]

Yeah Chris got burnt in Windhoek before we started the journey

[@nancyturek1121]

I believe it gets windy at sunset because the day’s super hot air rises when things cool as the sun goes down. Love your videos!

[@konradstark3110]

Lol ... her gas setting was right!!

[@PeterPeter-rj7se]

Wow, that looks amazing. Enjoy and have fun. Thanks for doing something so different

[@JumpingPlaces]

Our pleasure!

Congratulations to you guys for heading Windhoek, Namibia to rent this new remarkable Pickup truck in the Southern part of Africa to tours these amazing deserts in March of 2024❤❤❤

[@bethwodephotography]

One of my favourite places! It’s beauty takes your breath away

[@craig9563]

I've been following you folks for ages. Great to see you in the wondeful country of Namibia. I have been and LOVE it, Must see Etosha. (PS., We were told Namibia gravel roads eat tyres. Sure enough, we got a puncture, but we just put the spare on!).

[@JumpingPlaces]

Etosha video will be coming soon 👍

[@vvf1-sb2do]

​@@JumpingPlacesYesss!😊

[@markyeadon7271]

Guys, I don’t know if you’re still in Nam but, drones are a big no no in the national parks ( you even filmed the sign saying so ). The fines are high and equipment is confiscated. This applies across most of Southern Africa ( I’m not sure about Moz ). Best to declare it when you enter and have it sealed which they check when you leave.

[@caracas787]

Oh boy brings back wonderful memories of my trip in 2010 great video really enjoyed it.

[@JumpingPlaces]

Happy that you have experienced it too :D

[@kekesanders6063]

What made you guys choose to travel to Namibia??

[@keithbrandon8540]

Fantastic! We have not seen much of Namibia so looking forward to more videos from you. Great camping/car set up too. Stunning scenery! 👍✌️oh yes, walking up sand dunes.... hard to walk a normal step so we found in the Sahara, its best to shuffle short paces which digs your toes in the front. Running down the dune looked great.

[@JumpingPlaces]

Thanks so much!

[@SueMaha21]

All your Africa videos are my favorite ones of all your travels. Really, really enjoyed them. Thank you both sooo much.

[@damianmcdonagh7908]

Great video, thanks for posting. I did a two week self drive camping safari in Namibia in October 2022. I really enjoyed the Sossus Oasis Campsite and Spitzkoppe. Just curious which car hire company you used? 6:24 so important.

[@travel_and_explore_with_BIP]

Really cool to see you are in Namibia! Amazing!

[@JumpingPlaces]

So cool!

[@thandobe]

At least you are so generous with your praises and not negative like some tourists.

[@DanielBrielmayer]

Nice to see you guys in Namibia. I've done 2 self drives there. 10 days is definitely not long enough! You really should spend a minimum of 14 days there to really get to see the country especially Damaraland. People don't realize how large a country it is and as you are learning, the distances are quite far between places and take longer than google maps suggests, especially if you want to stop and take photos.

[@gordonsivell6514]

Love Namibia show. What kind of camera do you use, make and model etc, Thanks

Always better to be in southern hemisphere at this time of year..... Namibia is on the same latitude as Mauritius where i was in January. Infact you should make Mauritius you're next destination as you're quite close to it in terms of flying distance.

[@JumpingPlaces]

Won’t make it there on this trip but we definitely want to do madagasgar and mauritius at some point

[@patborecky2166]

Wow! What an exotic trip. Are the dead trees hard as rock?

[@JumpingPlaces]

Not too sure, the signs said not to touch them. I imagine they are though

[@scottgordon1781]

Hope the trip goes well must get there one day am only 1600 kms away ,+- ,was in awe of the cost of your wheels ,then saw what was involved . Capital is pronounced Vint hook :-) . Where to from here ? If into South Africa really need to keep your eyes open . Nice place if you avoid the rough spots . Capetown is a must and if you like nice wine ,have a mate ,Ken Forrester ,Stellenbosch area . Then along the coast up north,would have made you welcome in East London ,that said ,this is from some time ago . Happy travels .

[@rjhemedes]

I've been wanting to visit Namibia for about 3 years now ever since I saw a Ukrainian travel KZbinr cover the country. Sadly, he has not been able to travel and make more videos ever since Russia invaded his country. His style of travel and coverage was very similar to how you and Carol travel and cover the world.

[@JumpingPlaces]

Definitely worth it, completely different travel experience to anything we have done before

[@jozah2148]

Nice to see you guys cooking. Carol is super excited. Just wondering Chris…30:25 has Carol ever thought of freelancing for National Geography?🤔 She is a real pro.👌🏾 Wise investment on the camera.
