Intrepid traveler✈️, explorer🕵️& adventure seeker extraordinaire🌍
Highlights of Azerbaijan🇦🇿 with Intrepid Travel🌍-Sep 2024
Azerbaijan🇦🇿, home to ± ten million people and known for its vast supplies of oil and natural gas🛢️, with its name originating from the Persian words, “Azer”, which means “fire” and “Baygan”, which means “protector”. It is also known as “The Land of Fire"🔥and is linked to the pre, mostly fire-worshipping population👨👩👧👦who lived in this region for thousands of years. A country that's hosted me for 6 days📅where I got to experience more than exceptional hospitality & kindness🫶, culture, history, food, religion etc. where majority of the people didn't speak English, but yet, somehow we were able to communicate and understand each other😅 (with bits and pieces of English & Arabic, and a Russian word here & there🥴). This was such a rewarding & educational journey, shared as always with strangers from different parts of the world🌍brought together by our common love for travel✈️.

Mount Longonot🌋Crater Hike👣
Переглядів 3819 місяців тому
My 1st hike for 2024 was definitely a bucket list tick✔️, as hiking into a volcanic crater🌋was an absolute 1st for me. Mount Longonot is a stratovolcano located in Kenya's Great Rift Valley, thought to have last erupted in the 1860's. I've hiked Mount Longonot twice before, but this time I decided to book a guide to take me inside the giant crater and what I've found inside has left me in awe, ...

What a party this was. Forever Young.. Memories forever. Thank you for the Great Footage
@markmansf834 Was a party with a lineup that would be hard to beat! Will be interesting to see what they plan for the next Retro party👍

yes correct. its important to keep the Retro alive. Lets see who they bring next year
Thank you for the video! How challenging was the hike?
@@hannahwhite6207 You're welcome! Honestly, I didn't find it tough at all and would say it's a rather mild & easy trail, with the exception of the part going down the hill to the Sasumua river (about 15 minutes steep descent), about 5 minutes from the 1st waterfall👌
@yazeedwicomb2659 thank you!
Wow thanks really nice love the journey 🎉
@charlenenieuwoudt4102 Thanks Charlene🙂 Was a really short video though, but it is an amazing place, especially when you have it to yourself💖
It was a perfect place , I will be visiting Kenya in mid January, can you tell me how to go this place?thank you very much!! Love from China😁💌
@张呵呵_hehe There are many amazing places to visit in the Aberdare National Park. A short drive from Naivasha (2-3hr drive from Nairobi), there are different gate entries to the park depending on the section of the park you're visiting. I think this was the Rhino gate🤔, but on all these hikes/drives, they will have you pay entry fee + a fee for an armed ranger to guide you (protection from the wildlife there). I've done many trips here over the years and never encountered any issues. Also, you should check out the Karuru/Maguru & Chania Falls in Aberdare National Park as well (all 3 waterfalls are visited on the same trip)👍.
@@yazeedwicomb2659 Thx for your information!!!😁😁😁
You had some good weather during that time. Kindly check my channel for my latest hike there. Crazy weather. Congratulations.
🫶🏼
@@bashiraabrahams5407 Amazing country for Muslims, actually, anyone to travel to🫶.
Thanks for a brilliant video. I was thinking of doing this trip. You have sealed the deal. Looks absolutely incredible. Thanks so much for sharing 😊
@ericafryer8317 You're welcome and thanks for the positive feedback😁. Honestly, I wasn't keen on this trip at first as I had limited options, but it turned out to be 1 of my favorite tours ever! You're gonna have a blast👍
Can I ask you if the accommodation was ok.
@ericafryer8317 It was basic 2-3 star accommodation and honestly, you're gonna have to forego a lot of the comforts you're used to. Regardless, that didn't stop my group from having a great time👍. The only negative thing I can report back on is the pollution, so make sure you take face mask with and medication for block nose and cough medicine. Again, these small things are what made the trip so much fun for everyone and you're gonna be in food heaven😋. I trust your trip will be as good, if not better than mine👌
Thanks so much for the info. It honestly looks like a life changing experience. As for accommodation, it's really just somewhere to sleep. I just needed to prepare myself. I want to experience the true India and meet the beautiful Indian people. I've never done a tour before and was hesitant but your video looks like exactly what I want to see. Thanks again 🙏👍🏼
I just finished the exact same trip, great footage and similar memories. Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome! This was an amazing trip for me as well with wonderful memories made🙂
Hope you helped that poor fish washed up and struggling
@bunclip Yes, I did😁, a few of them actually (who were still alive). The shore was littered with hundreds of stranded fish that made me sad🥺, as my hypothesis was that the reason was probably man made😔.
@@yazeedwicomb2659 good for you, those fish thank you
....
@@Slaylazz 😎👍
Great video. Perhaps vary the music a bit, and add more nature sounds.
@Bellarium Thanks for the advice👍. I'm trying to record more nature sounds in my videos, but it's difficult with so many people speaking & making noise in the background🙆♂️😅
Looks good except for the food
@@lindas2531 Really😐? The food was 1 of the best things as they had so many different restaurants on the island serving a variety of cuisines🤤.
Interesting tour with spectacular views ماشاء الله ❤ shukran for sharing
@bashiraabrahams5407 Afwan, I appreciate the positive feedback❤️. Truly a country that enchanted me by what it had to offer and has inspired me to visit more Muslim countries in future in-sha-allah😊
@@yazeedwicomb2659 Ameen 🤲🏻
yazeed i am your biggest fan, shukran bzeff alhamdullah
Afwan! Much appreciated🙏
Been there and is a beautiful place❤❤❤
This place is something else yes💖. I wonder if the path to the second waterfall has been reopened yet? It was closed for safety reasons when I did it.
"Lovely place that a need to get out of the city life, the great out doors and be refreshed. ❤️
I did emerald pool many years back it was simply wonderfull waterfalls with all blue pools clear cristal water,and caves. ❤️ 😊
It is an amazing place in the backyard of Uitenhage that few people venture to. A really tough hike, but rewarding in the end👌
Naivasha my home enjoy your trip 💖
I love visiting Naivasha and even after 12 visits over the last 8 years, there's always something new to see🙂
@@yazeedwicomb2659 waooo i like that your always welcome 💖
Is it a easy fir a senior citizen & weight of 90 kilogrammes
The heritage tour shouldn't be a problem as there were elderly people in the group as well when I visited👌. Tour is well paced and not hurried at all but I would recommend wearing shoes with good gripping soles as some of the rocks are smooth and a little slippery, especially when wet. It is a good idea to take a headlamp/torch with as well👍
Awesome video! Another nice hike in the Eastern Cape is the Shipwreck Hiking and Canoe Trail. In terms of distance it’s pretty chilled, but makes up for that in terms of beautiful scenery & incredible birding.
Thanks! Can't wait to check out those trails as I've heard a lot about them and seen so many awesome pics of the trails👌
I was there in 2002,3 or 4. I miss you guys. You were so friendly . Same with Addo Elephant park. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I am surprised to watch Dance Dance Revolution in a South African Arcade.
It was always a very popular game in the arcades, especially the early 2000's
Did you go with a guide
It is compulsory to take a guide with which is included in your ticket at the main gate when purchasing your park permit🙂
Hi so there were no animals
Hi, we encountered no animals besides a few Reedbucks and some monkeys🙂
EPIC 🙌
It is absolutely incredible and so beautiful ❤ I love your videos. They are always so informative, and it feels like I'm also there✈️🏖🌄thank you🎉
Thanks! Now I can finally get started on our Maldives video😅
Short, precise and informative. I enjoyed watching. Asante.
Karibu! Appreciate the positive feedback👍
Hi Do you hav e the booking details for the Alexandria Hike?
You need to contact the Woody Cape Office 042 233 8600 to make a booking, 12 people max a time so you need to book in advance.
I didnt have enough time to checkout the forest section at Hamad International!
Good thing it's a permanent feature at the airport so you will get another chance to check it out👌
shot for the insight bru
Shot Bru! Spent half a day being shown around by Marlo👍
Thanks for the video - I'll hopefully be doing the hike in a couple of weeks and this gave me a good idea of what it'll be like!
Pleasure! This is an amazing hike, so I'm sure you'll enjoy it as much as I did👌
Great video For the croc encounter are you provided with a swim suit ?
Thanks! Yes, they provide you with swim suite, goggles, towel and a warm shower afterwards!
@@yazeedwicomb2659 how long is the encounter with the crocodile and cheetah and how much ?
@Nabeel Adam Each encounter is about 15minutes and the entrance price includes 1 encounter of choice. If you wanna do more then it's around R120 per encounter👍
Awesome 👍
Thanks👍
Párese que con las patas grabas men
amigo tienes que agacharte para ver que pasa bajo el agua🤣
ONE OF THE NICEST PLACES I d BEEN IN THIS OLD BOYS LIFETIME=TO ME IT LOOKS EVEN BETTER THEN BACK THEN 1983 WHEN I SPOTTED IT DRIVING ALONG ON MY HOLIDAY FROM JOHANNESBURG TILL CAPETOWN TAKING IT EASE FOR ONE MONTH-GRACIAS AMIGO YAZEED FOR THIS FRESH FOOTAGE
No hay problema Amigo👌, this is really a very special place and I'm glad you got to see it👍
Watch out for big birds 😮!
Seagulls were attacking my drone😓
they fixed the lights on the 4thmix not to long ago :)
I was there in July and they were still not working☹but thanks for the heads up👍, looking forward to my next visit then!
But there is the issue of them being static they do not flash in time with the music 😢
que miedo
Amazing footage. New subscriber here. Thanks.
nice gameplay have you tried there ddr extreme machine cuz its also good
I have, but I enjoy the song list on 4th mix more👍
Beautiful
that is good , farwell!📢
One of the best places in Knysna
I live in Knysna 2
Lucky you😁👌
Cool
Really nice game-play on 4thMix. I'm surprised you can perform the crossover technique for some of the arrow patterns in some of the songs lol. It's really great to see that we have other South African players who are good at DDR even today!
Thanks man! But you should've seen me in my younger years when I could do "maniac" in double mode. 4th mix was always my favorite along with 3rd mix Korean version👍
@@yazeedwicomb2659 Wow it must have been quite exciting to see you in action back in the day! Also it's interesting that you like playing the older mixes from 1999(3rdmix) to 2000(4thmix plus)
N1 city with all the arcades and that big octopus. Being 12/13 and going there with friends, such good memories.
Always made a way to go to N1 city when holidaying in Cape Town and I've seen the arcade revamped at least thrice over the years (80's till present). 1 of the only arcades in the country that still maintains that nostalgic feeling👌
What a beautiful place, the scenery are spectacular! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the positive feedback👍, this place is amazing yes💖
Absolutely stunning thank you Brendan. Gosh therr seems to be an endless amount of trails to be traversed. Thank you for sharing this one. Lots of love 👏👍💗
Wow what a hike! The videos are just getting better and better, keep it up!👏
Much appreciated👊
That thumbnail is a badass shot! Great video man! This is a stunning place surrounded by beautiful scenery.
Thanks! Appreciate the positive feedback👍
