Big ups to the 200 series...Thanks Ed, as the locals we really appreciate you man!!

[@bothwellnyamhondera948]

You got nerves of steel Ed. I wouldn't dare cross those deep river. I feel so nervous at any river crossing.

[@sukdeomickey]

Thanks for for bringing to us Sukdeo Family .

[@wesselbotha3928]

Good start to the weekend!

[@kapilratilal4039]

What a treat to the senses this was. Beautiful, simply. Start to end.

Amazing footage & Adventure + Ref Tire Pressure try 28 PSI - Front 30 PSI - Rear + Less weight / gear recommended Cheers Enjoy

[@sarelalberts8890]

Edward You are to much of a gentleman .We all pay for our time in the bush .Walk up to the neighbors and ask them nice and (serious) to turn down the noise .And then if .........

[@EdwardBath]

Thanks Sarel, I did ask them too and they just swore at me and told me to leave, in other words though unfortunately

[@bliksemse]

Some people think the places it’s all about them .

[@sarelalberts8890]

[@sarelalberts8890]

Edward how can I get in contact with you ? I am interested in the pangolin armour product . I did send a mail to them but no reply so far .

[@lerpschannel5648]

Nice, informative video, thanks for uploading! I drove from Maun to Chobe about 18 years ago. Only with a map. The river crossings were intense. I would love to go back with my children and wife.

[@justinkiley4146]

Fantastic episode Ed…and yes, inconsiderate campers are the worst. Thank you for drawing attention to this…nature does not need them!

[@amandalansdell1074]

Thanks alot for the time you take to include us in your trips...it's amazing. Hate it when people are noisy...I mean we go there to enjoy the bush sounds🐾

[@doug729]

Thanks again. Nice to sit back and watch the magic of Africa. Too bad about the neighbours, probably scared all the wildlife. I'm glad I became a supporter.

[@damianmcdonagh7908]

This past October I had the pleasure of briefly meeting Edward at the Okaukuejo Campsite in Etosha National Park. He's a cool dude.

[@maartendenduijn7716]

Hello i look forward to every vlog of you. I did my first safari in Uganda of my life two weeks ago. Seen the big 5. Is Amazing. Edward you learn more of your mistakes then all the things that go well. There wil be allways people who complain. Your vlogs are an inspiration to me. Maarten den Duijn

[@collinphiri910]

That sunset shot was stunning. Thanks for another fantastic episode

[@SizaChips]

The water crossing ,i was scared for the FJ ,cause it doesn't have a snorkel Eddy..wow beautiful

[@sharondavis8003]

Long live the beauty & uniqueness of Africa 😊 Thanks for the trip! 👍🏻🙋🏼‍♀️🇺🇸

[@shaunmoller2997]

Brilliant footage, what an epic episode thanks Ed water crossing with the 200 come towards us flippen nice

[@amieche]

and another one,magic!! 🪄🪄

[@sheilaupton171]

Just majestic Edward! I must say my heart was pounding just watching those water crossings. True Paradise!❤️❤️

[@drup2013]

Sorry about that experience Ed. Super, super great video. Was in Khwai in October and it was FANTASTIC!!

[@robertvanderwielen8346]

hey Ed, am a solo traveller, initially in a range rover, but got drowned , the electronics (messages) drove me mad, so got a 76 - have never been happier - getting drowned & stuck ... is all part of why we go there !

[@derekmorris2045]

Love your videos, super high quality! Keep up the great work! Cheers

[@gilbertbrune7630]

Really Magic 😍 Great Trip ❤👍

[@siphosibiya4472]

Looking forward to the next. That is the African bush. You don't catch them every time

[@mikefoster8506]

You've done it again, Ed. Brilliant footage and editing. Thanks for taking us with you!!!

[@sherylevans495]

Ah, man, lovely! Definitely the morning chorus was preferable to the noisy neighbors! They sounded horrible. Feel for you, we were horrified when we went to Kubu one year and some noisy people pulled in next to us and played music until some ungodly hour!

[@guzzicr2738]

Edward thank you so much ! Great videos and stories, I realy love them and they give lots of information for my three month Southern Africa tour this year. Let´s meet out there!

[@bevanpope7924]

I would have been a lot more KWAAI with those neighbours… and a few flat tyres would have been the order. Well done to you for being so tolerant.

[@zacksnguni8999]

21:36 awesome content Ed.

[@jeanloock4930]

Watching you sink your car, and then the semi rushed "panic" that happens after brings back a lot of memories from when we got stuck near 3rd Bridge in 2018. I've never sweated so much in my life from pure stress as I did in that moment. But it was an important lesson and I've learned a lot since then and with that experience I'll go right back and do it again, but I'll do a few things differently.

[@IddoRoscher]

Hi Jean, in short, what will you do differently? Asking because I will go to Moremi next year and am not very experienced (was there last july as well) Iddo

[@theunsboshoff9223]

We once camped in Berg en Dal and the neighbour pulled his TV out of the caravan late at night and started watching in the open air without any concern for anybody around him.

[@eddiemiekop4006]

Maun is my home town. I stay here. Would love to connect one of this days

[@paulredelinghuys7301]

Hi Ed. You guys really know how to make nice videos. Well done again. I was looking out for this video since we saw each other on your return at Sitatunga. Hope the 200 recovered from ICU and is up and running again. Until we run into each other again.

[@shathaniketogetswe4271]

You truly are a gentleman, personally I would've made them keep quiet or gotten them kicked out, the power of knowing people goes a long way, I can tell you that those people are the same people that smuggle meat and vegetables into the country, that leave a mess, that do donuts at Kubu Island. I went to Khama Rhino last year with my family and got a group that was braaing, drinking and playing music really loud kicked out.

[@chrisgrobler4882]

Awesome Awesome video, thanks Edward 👌👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@HoneyBadgerFarm]

In and HOLY SHIT on the ending....never a good sign to when the diesel tank is out

[@naomivantonder1161]

Loved your video. Botswana sure is beautifull. We are doing a trip in August 23. Where can I find a list of all individual campsites where each site has its own kitchen and bathroom?

[@4WheelingSA]

Cool video Ed. Loud people spoils it for everyone, wherever you go. From the Kruger to Wild camping it seems… Love the new 120fps (or 100) shots you are using.

[@johanneethling592]

Hi Edward. Have been following your videos for quite a while. Realy enjoy what you share. One of the recent videos of your 200 series getting stuck in the water crossing and your reaction to it struck a particular note with me. You, and so many other You-tube'rs put yourselves out there all the time at the mercy of so many people.....as the saying goes.....it takes all sorts to make up the world! Anyway, for me, what you do takes me into worlds I would in all likelihood never experience myself. So, well done!! And keep up the good work you are doing. Never mind the many souls commenting with negative rather than positive inputs.....you add significant value to so many of us.....and that should be sufficient fuel to keep you going!

[@EdwardBath]

Thank you so much Johan!!

[@DustandDieselOverlanding]

Lekker video Ed. We had our share of bad neighbors as well. It's terrible. If you complain, then you become the problem. Safe travels brother.🤙

[@aadildhooma6689]

Awesome 👌 magic Hope the 200 series if fine Can't wait for the next 1

[@jamesfriskin8334]

Love the new episode! Always look out for your latest vids!

[@OffCourse4x4]

Keep up your good work Edward! We love your content. I would love to do a walk around on your Cruiser on our channel!!

[@roderickbowes2482]

Hey Ed, quick correction at 9;18 you state something about "just because the 200 got through -- does'nt mean that the FJ will " - - - -' Ha -- that should read the other way around mate -- LOL ! ! ! great trip thanks

[@monicaalberts8130]

Fantastic....you are blessed indeed!!🌿

[@nielmalan5224]

Hey Ed, you make my heart longing for that paradise....Xaxanaxa is our most favourite place in Moremi. Always saw a leopard there coming through there. Pitty about those idiots next to you. They don't realize what poor example they set fot their kids...that is not how you behave in the last of very few real wilderness areas. @EpicAfrica sets a great example of how you teach your kids to appreciate nature. Well done/

[@kates41]

Absolutely amazing Ed. Brings back so many memories of August this year in Khwai and Moremi with our family of 4. That infamous bridge killed one of our tyres early in the morning 😆 looking forward to your next episode

[@alannewstead1332]

Another "magic" (🙂) trip and great video!! Fully agree regarding your neighbours - why wouldn't you ask them to turn it down? Well done Ed.

[@EricLouw-dx5hw]

Why don't you visit Gonarezhou (in southern Zimbabwe)?

[@rhondaturner1661]

I love traveling with you Edward in your privet zoo love your country love the animal's please do more videos ONE LOVE Jah bless you

[@monikadetering7553]

Hi Edward thanks again for an awesome video from you. Greetings from Namibia and enjoy your weekend

[@mars54mars54]

I LOVE that you bring the coffee machine, good coffee is always the way to go... essential for a good day! How does a vehicle go so deep through water, hood under, without stalling the engine??? Spectacular morning!!! Bad neighbors 🤬

[@karolaw62]

Neighbours like these must be frightend to hell - staying in the bush.... But thanks for a wonderful video!

[@michaelgarlickmovies]

Another great one Edward.

[@troopyinafrica]

Great Cinematography Ed. I have yet to do this section of Botswana and would love to one day. Looking forward to getting the full story in the next episode.

[@Goose_JB74]

Hi Ed loving the series and man the video footage especially the river crossings, man that an adventure ❤. Cant wait for the day i get to so these trips in Botswana.

[@JoesWildlifeAdventures]

Another brilliant video Ed! Looks like you were having the same strange weather in Botswana we were having at the same time in Mana Pools with the low, grey clouds each day but you still put together some great material….can’t wait for the next episode 👍

[@paulsmit8147]

Magic........as always 🤙

[@lockinghubsadventures]

Wow wow bud killer episode. All caught up and waiting for the next one🔥

[@ingoeggers8356]

Hey Ed, as usual, you succeed in translating the beautiful African bush story into an amazing tale. Such a pity that you had to share your experience with that other ckan of homo sapiens, I have some other expressions for these beings, but these are not acceltible to polite conversation (YT). This episode again showcases the beauty of this beautiful continent, and as another commentator mentioned, you are very polite. Thank you for sharing, safe travels boet!

[@IddoRoscher]

Hi Edward, Khwai and Moremi are brilliant. When was your trip exactly? Being there takes all daily stress away and makes you feel alive in every fibre. Was there in july and will be there next july. I hope to share that on my new channel @iddotravelsafrica, inspired by yours. Thanks for sharing

[@johanjvrensburg5964]

You are on that Camp site to get away from noice and just to switch off the busy life. Then neighbours remind you about home😂😂

[@coadyg]

I just can't understand why these noisy people go to places like this. so unfortunate that it spoils it for those who visit these locations for the right reasons. Another great video.

[@johanneswehrmann]

Obnoxious campers should be disciplined straight away. Been there, done that, zero remorse. 🤨

[@johndiaz7240]

Your videos made me happy we share this beautiful planet with such amazing creatures. We have had some disrespectful neighbors while camping also . Looks like the paint protector is doing its job.

[@naomivantonder1161]

Sorry to ask but what paint protection did you use.

[@garethevans1629]

Great video, what are your thoughts on the new LC300 , ever thought on upgrading the from the 200?

[@EdwardBath]

Thanks mate! Not at the moment nope

[@naomivantonder1161]

Hi Edward have you posted episode 3 of your latest trip to Botswana. We, my husband and myself, are waiting to see what happend after your previous 2 episodes. Or are you still busy editing? We love all your videos. Have a good day.

[@rajeshduvooru]

Ed, Why dont you travel to Namibia , It is a beautiful country and amazing places to see. Looking forward for your videos on Namibia

[@tashingakeith5919]

with regards to the dead bull elephants, i saw tusks still attached to the one carcass so im guessing they fought to the death... My guess

[@robertharold2503]

Nice video as always. Do you leave the pangolin armor on all the time?

[@EdwardBath]

Yes I do!

[@botdanie7762]

Great Video man!

[@craignorris126]

Desperately waiting for part 3……

[@sandilethwala9545]

Thanks for posting that drowning video. A lot to learn there. How's the car? My faith in Toyotas is reinforced

[@EdwardBath]

All good

[@younghils]

hey ed, great video as usual.. talk about neighbours from hell, sheesh... p.s whats the eta on the video of ur 200 flooding?? KEEP IT UP

[@patrickbremner4318]

I see an Engel in the back of your cruiser. New?? Size? Over the long term best fridge in the world

[@EdwardBath]

Hey mate! Yes it’s an Engel 80L Combi

[@naomivantonder1161]

Which Satelite phone do you use please

[@EdwardBath]

Hi Naomi, it’s an iridium sat phone, they are very expensive but very good quality

[@timfoinc.6879]

Elephants has tooth decay!! Why??

[@dewaldcarstenstimberfoxfir7604]

Hi Ed, I have send you a mail.

[@HarareHillbilly]

Sorry you had shocking noisy neighbours, I think they should be named and shamed if it's at that level,

[@mrjames5635]

Hi Ed, the dash cover you have, do they come in the landrover discovery 3/4?? thanks

[@mrjames5635]

ps, brilliant channel you have here...
