Fantastic adventure video series. Just love watching these. So different from Norway.

Happy Birthday! Thanks for bringing us all along and sharing your beautiful country with us. I like most here won’t be able to come to SA and see firsthand the places you go..it’s really cool that we can see them too. Thank you both.

Once again Matt, another excellent journey. I work a 12 hr shift and I come home and relax and watch all these every night.

Really appreciate Nicole & Matt. Family we never met. Overlanders have common DNA

[@thingsofpassionwithrali6259]

It started when i watched one video on my feeds, Now im addicted to your trips, Very nice camera work and all.

[@regsparkes6507]

Thank you again folks, this is beautiful too. Happy Birthday Matt., best wishes!

[@vossierebel]

Happy belated birthday again! French Toast!! Whooppee! Now... I'll be off to the Baviaan's Kloof!! We loved that place!!

[@bennyhardien2080]

Thanks.... This is literally next on my bucket list. To hike the Gamkaberg and Seweweekspoort berg

[@the.original.throwback]

Those of us who love truly remote areas rarely seen by humans share your sense of fulfillment and peace when far away from the press of civilization. Since we don't yet have anti-gravity flying suits to take us to these magical places, your Hilux seems to be the next best conveyance into the wilderness. Thanks for taking us along with you and Nicole. Jess

[@oldtighthead2459]

Nothing beats standing alone in the karoo with no one around for 30km

[@in2minutesorless64]

Wow! The Robinson pass!!

[@franciscocarvalho2424]

Today I managed to be the first fan with a card, still waiting for that photo, always wishing you much success, I'm here in Brazil, connected to the channel, keep on the path of prosperity, like guaranteed always

[@johannkotze7196]

Thank you for a great series, I really enjoyed it seeing a part of the country I live in from another perspective. I have done the trip to Die Hel on a motorcycle and in a vehicle. On my bucket list is Seweweeks poort. I can't wait for the next series. Keep it up.

[@Goose_JB74]

Happy Happy bud 🎉. Best way to spend a birthday in the bush doing what you love 💕

[@404nitro]

You mentioned that it was your birthday in this video, though I realize it was probably some time ago by now- happy birthday just the same. Today when this video was posted, is my birthday. The scenery is these videos is simply awesome, so thank you once again for taking us all along with you.

[@moheltabi9816]

Stunning views...a fun outing for you and Sister Nicole

[@kamelthorn]

Happy birthday 🎂 🎊, thanks for your video’s, they have given my wife and I some great ideas for new places to visit.😊

[@johnnycamrose8563]

A superb trip, great editing of the drone footage and scenery as you drove through the mountains. Made me have aspirations of visiting that part of the world. My kind of heaven.

[@tobiashahne8675]

Really amazing. Thanks for making the videos and giving me some ideas for the future of places to visit once I get myself a 4x4 :D I can't wait for the drakensberg series!!!

[@brucedevilbiss3279]

beautiful country. Happy birthday Matt.

[@pesthunteroutdoors]

Another awesome video of places of South Africa and every time you pass the lakes rivers and creeks I'm wondering how is the fishing there Absolutely stunning cinematography keep up the good work looking forward for the next episode

[@Uchvryheid]

Awesome!!!!!

[@robprideaux3279]

As a fellow PE drone pilot your drone videos are fantastic Matt. Bloody well done bud

[@pierreclab]

Hey Matt. Loving your posts and routes. Question: what layers do you use in Gaia GPS? I assume it's the paid/subscription version too? Please advise. Keep the good routes rolling!

[@mitchellanddonnabrooke2177]

Always blows my mind that South Africans tend to want to explore outside of South Africa when it all exists right here. Granted in other parts of Southern Africa there is greater diversity, but you don't have to travel so far for an amazing experience...

[@joannebedford2695]

Amazing!

[@henkbielderman4243]

Well done, the Dubbers!

[@oldsmugglerflyfishing]

Amazing place!

[@hamada9684]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOW

[@rensim6201]

Happy Birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉.. Hope you have a wonderful day. Please keep your video adventure going.

[@dyllan6303]

Love it! Happy birthday💪

[@kannabuddharaju]

Happy Birthday Matt.

[@nonibbs]

Matt, Seveweekspoort is a river bed, all Poorts are river beds! Thats why its flatish! There is a slight gradient - rising 500m over 17km, because rivers tend to flow down hill. But yes, it is a heavenly Poort.

[@tobias4918]

Happy Birthday from Sweden

[@richardstadler1458]

The drop offs on the roads would be a hard no bueno for my wife.

[@joatmofa0405]

"poort" in British English : (in South Africa) a steep narrow mountain pass, usually following a river or stream

[@mapuia7692]

Happy birthday

[@markusvandenberg5133]

Hey Matt… belated happy happy…. Love your work… we are up in Langebaan and would like to do this route in reverse, starting up our neck of the woods…could you please share the complete route if possible.

[@meditationserenitynzen7621]

[@johanswart8116]

Lesotho. 21km 8 hours. Lol

[@gailsturgess7094]

I was looking forward to seeing your travels but I find that I don't enjoy your style. I prefer to see and hear about the countryside etc and not about you guys. Thanks so much.
