My goodness, but Namibia is staggeringly beautiful... I spent 3 weeks there back in the mid 1980s, and have raved to friends and families ever since about how it's probably my favorite place on the planet. Watching videos like this fills me with a strong yearning to spend MONTHS exploring it's wonders.
Wow - I guess in the 80s many things where different. And yes for us it's one of the most amazing places on this planet too. We are very happy that we could trigger such feelings. :-)
Love videos like these that remind us as Namibians how beautiful our country really is! We often take it for granted because it's something we see every day. But these are important and beautiful reminders!🤌🔥
Hi ihr beiden, recht herzlichen Dank für dieses grandiose Video mit den wunderschönen Aufnahmen eines großartigen Landes. Außerdem die vielen Tipps, sehr gut gemacht. Liebe Grüße von Sylvia und Chris. 👍👍👍👍👍😍🙋♀️🙋🏻♂️
Vielen lieben Dank. Freut uns sehr, dass es euch gefallt und wir hoffen euch und andere Namibia näher gebracht zu haben und eventuell auch zu einer eigenen Reise zu animieren. Liebe Grüße aus Wien
Thank you! 😃 And thanks - in two of our previous videos I spoke a few words, but never that much. I hope my English is ok - I love to speak that language and like my voice much more than the one with my native language. ;-)
Herzlichen Dank für dieses professionelle, informative und vor allem fantastische Video und dass ihr uns damit auf eurer traumhaften Reise durch Namibia mitgenommen habt.

Vielen lieben Dank - freut uns sehr dass euch das Video gefallen hat. Und vor allem, dass ihr damit eure Erinnerungen auffrischen konntet. :-) Wir machen das auch immer gerne - und machmal entdeckt man dann auch etwas, was man selbst verpasst hat.

My friends! First of all, I really congratulate you on the professionalism of your videos and for this in particular, where you have also added the narration. Beautiful shots, really professional as the editing. I hope your channel grows as much as you really deserve for the effort and enthusiasm you put into doing this. In Namibia you really had a unique experience, which you will remember, I imagine, for your entire life. Thanks for sharing it with us, I enjoyed every minute and I leave you my big like. Enjoy your weekend and a big embrace from Italy! Renata
Dear Renata - thanks a lot. And yeah we try to improve and chose a little bit different approach this time. We are proud too about the output and guess this will not be the last video in that direction. We hope that too and will put our time and effort to this project because it's something we totally like and put our hearts to it. So thanks a lot for your kind words. Have a nice one too and greetings from Austria. carina and daniel
@@lostintravel_at My dearest friends! I feel everything. Your feelings, your effort and enthusiasm. Keep up the good work! I just LOVE your channel! Hugs and have a great month of February! Renata
Hi I've only recently discovered your channel and I have to say I'm loving it. I am from Iran and a new subscriber of your channel. I'm very happy to watch this video 🙌, thanks very much for sharing this beautiful video.
Great upload, very nice video and great use of a drone. This is a fantastic place and I'm a bit envious of you seeing it in person👍🏻thank you for sharing and have a wonderful week. 🙂👍
Being able to watch a documentary produced by you is a very luxurious experience. Enjoyed watching the wildlife and breathtaking sceneries fully. Thank you so much for posting another great work. LIKE 28
Glad you enjoyed it! And yeah we have to admit that we are a little bit proud about this project. We have another documentary planned already and thinking about doing this from time to time. Thanks again. :-)
Thank you very much. We went at the end of February / begin of March. And got lucky because it rained a lot compared to other years in January and February so it depends a bit how much green you will see. Anyway enjoy.
Thanks a lot - and yeah - with our first drone it took a while every time to be ready to fly but with our new one (the mavic air 2) it's done in a second.
Thank you very much - glad you like it. We took the images end of February/begin of March 2021. They had a very rainy January which occur about every seven years according to the locals.
Yes it was one of the best trips we ever made. :-) About the campsites - the ones inside the national parks are listed on their site (nwr) and other we just selected through google maps. I don't know about an app.
Cool - thanks for watching and great you like it. We visited for 14 days, but it was our second trip to Namibia, so we skipped some parts of the country because it's so big.
Amazing video! I would like to do a similar route sometime soon. May I please ask, did you book all the campsites beforehand, or it's ok to just show up?
Wow - great - very happy for you. It depends on the season if you need warmer stuff too. We went in February/March and it was very warm so we didn't need a sleeping bag or warm clothes. Have fun planning.
Hey - thanks for watching and great you like it. For flying a drone you need a permit from the Namibia Civil Aviation Authority. It cost around 70 euro and you need to fill out a form and have a liability insurance. It‘s quite a procedure and takes around 4 weeks. Maybe they (hopefully) automatized the process by now - in February 2021 all was handled through email but the guys were quick in responding every time. Anyway have fun planned and again on your trip.
@@lostintravel_at yes, I hope so, however I am wondering if I have to register it as 'private' or 'commercial' if i want to post pictures on insta/youtube?
@@anissaschreiber8946 We are not experts about this but I would go with 'private' since it will not a commerical production i guess. Btw - did it work out?
super Video … 🤩🤩 sag mal konntet ihr Nachts einfach zum Deadvlei um die Aufnahmen mit dem Sternenhimmel zu machen, oder habt ihr eine Genehmigung gebraucht? Wenn ja wo bekommt man diese? 😊
Vielen lieben Dank. Da wir in der Sossus Dune Lodge (einige Übernachtungsmöglichkeit innerhalb des zweiten Gates) übernachtet haben war es möglich 24h zum Deadvlei zu kommen - dafür lässt sich die Lodge aber auch gut bezahlen. Wir haben auch gehört, dass man beim NWR eine Genehmigung einholen kann, hab es dort mit mehreren Emails probiert, aber leider nie eine Antwort erhalten, deswegen haben wir in den sauren Apfel gebissen und uns die Lodge geleistet.
@@lostintravel_at Vielen Dank für die ausführliche Antwort. Musstet ihr dann zusätzlich zur teueren Lodge noch etwas für den Zugang bezahlen oder konntet ihr dann einfach hingehen?
@@lostintravel_at Hi, If you have the original video, depending on your capturing device, whether it supports wide angle photography or not. When rendering you could bring up the resolution to be able to watch on a wide screen or even on VR goggles. (Please note I'm new at this so I will accept any advice if I am wrong.)
Lovely video, very nicely done!! How did you manage to get the drone shots in the national parks? I was under the impression that drones are not allowed in the national parks. Also wondering about the process you had to go through to get permission to use a drone in Namibia. Planning on heading there next year and would like to take a drone but not sure how to go about getting the required permits. Any advice you can give would be great. Thanks
Thanks a lot - and yes drone flying is a bit tricky in Namibia. You need a permit from the Namibia Civil Aviation Authority.

@@lostintravel_at Do they search bags for drones like at the airport? I dont wana fly in national parks or restricted areas, but theres a chance i wont get permit in time for my trip?
Thanks a lot for your feedback. We use a wide variety of music in our videos, for example in our 'Namibia Best Of' a much more calmer one - which music do you prefer?
Wie grün die Landschaft bei eurer Reise war. Wann wart ihr in Namibia? Wir waren im Juli 2021 dort und es war eines der beeindruckensten Länder die wir je gesehen haben.
Ja war extrem grün - war bereits unser zweiter Trip. Wir waren Ende Februar/Anfang März, jedoch muss man dazusagen, dass es im Jänner 2021 ungewöhnlich viel geregnet hat. In jedem Fall auch für uns ein wunderbares Land.
Question, how did you manage to shot with the drone? Did you apply for a permit and have the authorization from the game reserve? I'm wondering if I should bring mine or not...
We had a permit from the NCAA but never flew inside a game reserve - for that you need a additional permit from the reserve or the NWA for their resorts (i think for Etosha it's not possible to get a permit). As far I know (did travel to Namibia last time in 2021) flying without a permit is not possible.
Thanks - glad you got some useful information. 😁 Since we always want to better could you be a little more specific what about the music you don’t like? Thanks
@@lostintravel_atI would prefer no music at all. A video about the natural world should have only the natural sounds recorded. Recording music over the visual is an offshoot of the days of the silent movie withj no sound recording, or as in the case of many nature programs (re BBC!), no sound recorders were in place. In any event music is very personal and moment dependent. When I click on your video I do not do it because I may possibly like your taste in music.
thank you for this useful video! we have a question. 1. if you could recommend any good company where we can rent a car in Botswana/Namibia (we want to see both countries ) 2. you were flying a drone. is it allowed somehow?
Hello, about the camper rental: we have rented a camper with rooftop tent in Namibia twice so far - in 2021 from Africa on Wheels and the first time from Safari Rental - a combination of the two providers would be perfect in our eyes. Everything worked perfectly at Africa on Wheels, only the equipment of the camper was quite poor - at Safari Rental the camping equipment was perfect, unfortunately there were problems with the transaction (had a lot of troubles to get the deposit refunded). I think the next time we would take Safari Rental again, just clarify the deposit in advance. And about the drone: For flying a drone you need a permit from the Namibia Civil Aviation Authority. It cost around 70 euro and you need to fill out a form, have a liability insurance. It‘s quite a procedure and takes around 4 weeks. Have fun. 😁
Hi! In which month did you visit Namibia? Planning for a trip this january, but since it's wet season i am not sure how safe it is to drive through mud on my own. thanks!
We went at the end of February/beginn of March 2021 - and although we didn't have any problems we can image how much it rained before since some landscapes were so green. I guess it's a bit of a lottery - if it's going to be a rainy wet season you should be prepared for everything and if it's not it should be fine - a wet season as of January/February 2021 does happen about every 10 years according to locals. Have fun anyway.
do you think Namibia is a cashfree country? Or you need it everywhere? Dont know if I will exchange some NAD in my home town or I just withdraw some money directly at the ATM in Namibia. Thanks for the reply in advance!
Really cash free no but most places accept cards. We did withdraw too much and spent it later even if it would have been possible to pay by card. In our experience some cash is needed anyway especially for tips and a little bit of a backup if some place doesn't accept cards or has no cell coverage or the power is out at the moment of the payment. Hope that helps a bit. Have a great trip.
🥀May I share an Old Testament Verse with you from Daniel 7:14 "And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a Kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should SERVE Him; his dominion is an Everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom shall not pass away, and His Kingdom that which shall not be destroyed." Also, can I share Isaiah 53:5 " But HE was WOUNDED For our TRANSGRESSIONS, he was BRUISED for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and with His STRIPES we are HEALED."🌷🌻🌼🌹 God the Father loves you so much that He sent Holy Sinless Jesus (His Holy Son) to earth to be born of a virgin.Then, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins. He was in the tomb for 3 days, then Father God raised Holy and Sinless🌹 Jesus Christ (Y'shua) to Life! He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. 🌿🌺🌻 We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, and believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments.🤱🚶♂💆♀ "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, & unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, & immoral persons sorcerers & idolaters & all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire & brimstone..." Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus and put your true faith and trust in Him today and please repent. Will you have a Real encounter with Holy Lord Jesus (Y'shua is His Hebrew Name) and stay in a Genuine relationship with Him daily please
You have shown bathroom approx 5,6 times. Its not that great a thing that ur showing /highlighting it again n again. It's quite disgusting. Your focus should be on nature n travel
Thanks for your feedback. Our 'Road Trip' videos are focused on the whole experience which includes the camping spots or hotel rooms and bathrooms. We think that can be quite useful for someone who wants to go on a similar trip. For you we recommend to watch all our other videos - especially the best Of's which are exclusively and only focused on the nature or travel.

Great video! What time of year were you there?
Glad you like it. We went there end of February.
Great video.Thank you for sharing. At what time of the year were these images taken. Everything is quite green for Namibia?
Thank you very much - glad you like it. We took the images end of February/begin of March 2021. They had a very rainy January which occur about every seven years according to the locals.
Wonderful video. How many days did you travel and how much you spend. Thanks
Thanks you very much. We traveled for 15 days and spent about €240 per day - excluding the international flight.

What period did you travel in? It seems to me that the vegetation is very green
We went at the end of February/beginning of March - and it rained a lot before - more than typical for Namibia.

The music is fine. The presentation quality excellent. i was referring to the difference in volume.
Thank you.
Thanks for the clarification :-) - we will try to improve that. Thanks again and have a nice day.

My pleasure.
Wie grün die Landschaft bei eurer Reise war. Wann wart ihr in Namibia? Wir waren im Juli 2021 dort und es war eines der beeindruckensten Länder die wir je gesehen haben.
Ja war extrem grün - war bereits unser zweiter Trip. Wir waren Ende Februar/Anfang März, jedoch muss man dazusagen, dass es im Jänner 2021 ungewöhnlich viel geregnet hat. In jedem Fall auch für uns ein wunderbares Land.
Question, how did you manage to shot with the drone? Did you apply for a permit and have the authorization from the game reserve? I'm wondering if I should bring mine or not...
We had a permit from the NCAA but never flew inside a game reserve - for that you need a additional permit from the reserve or the NWA for their resorts (i think for Etosha it's not possible to get a permit). As far I know (did travel to Namibia last time in 2021) flying without a permit is not possible.
Informative! Pity about the terrible music!
Thanks - glad you got some useful information. 😁 Since we always want to better could you be a little more specific what about the music you don’t like? Thanks
@@lostintravel_atI would prefer no music at all. A video about the natural world should have only the natural sounds recorded. Recording music over the visual is an offshoot of the days of the silent movie withj no sound recording, or as in the case of many nature programs (re BBC!), no sound recorders were in place. In any event music is very personal and moment dependent. When I click on your video I do not do it because I may possibly like your taste in music.
Big Like 👍🤩👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Where did you rent the 4x4 from?
We rented from Africa on Wheels.
thank you for this useful video! we have a question.
1. if you could recommend any good company where we can rent a car in Botswana/Namibia (we want to see both countries )
2. you were flying a drone. is it allowed somehow?
Hello, about the camper rental: we have rented a camper with rooftop tent in Namibia twice so far - in 2021 from Africa on Wheels and the first time from Safari Rental - a combination of the two providers would be perfect in our eyes. Everything worked perfectly at Africa on Wheels, only the equipment of the camper was quite poor - at Safari Rental the camping equipment was perfect, unfortunately there were problems with the transaction (had a lot of troubles to get the deposit refunded). I think the next time we would take Safari Rental again, just clarify the deposit in advance.
And about the drone:
For flying a drone you need a permit from the Namibia Civil Aviation Authority. It cost around 70 euro and you need to fill out a form, have a liability insurance. It‘s quite a procedure and takes around 4 weeks.
Have fun. 😁
Hallo, zu welcher Zeit / also in welchem Monat ward ihr da? Danke :)
Hallo, wir waren Ende Februar bzw. Anfang März für 2 Wochen.
Hi! In which month did you visit Namibia? Planning for a trip this january, but since it's wet season i am not sure how safe it is to drive through mud on my own. thanks!
We went at the end of February/beginn of March 2021 - and although we didn't have any problems we can image how much it rained before since some landscapes were so green. I guess it's a bit of a lottery - if it's going to be a rainy wet season you should be prepared for everything and if it's not it should be fine - a wet season as of January/February 2021 does happen about every 10 years according to locals. Have fun anyway.
Can you please tell me the month you made this 2-week road trip?
Hi, sure, we went from end of February until mid of March in a year when the rains in January were heavy. Hope this helps. Have a great day.
Hello, what was the period you went there please ?
Hi, we went there end of February / begin of March.
do you think Namibia is a cashfree country? Or you need it everywhere? Dont know if I will exchange some NAD in my home town or I just withdraw some money directly at the ATM in Namibia. Thanks for the reply in advance!
Really cash free no but most places accept cards. We did withdraw too much and spent it later even if it would have been possible to pay by card. In our experience some cash is needed anyway especially for tips and a little bit of a backup if some place doesn't accept cards or has no cell coverage or the power is out at the moment of the payment. Hope that helps a bit. Have a great trip.
Die Campsite heißt Koiimasis!
Danke - vollkommen korrekt - in der Beschreibung soeben korrigiert (im Video selbst geht leider nicht mehr).
My best campsite was in Etosha Olifantsrus ❤️
Yeah - we have that on our list for our next Etosha Trip. :-)
🥀May I share an Old Testament Verse with you from Daniel 7:14 "And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a Kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should SERVE Him; his dominion is an Everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom shall not pass away, and His Kingdom that which shall not be destroyed." Also, can I share Isaiah 53:5 " But HE was WOUNDED For our TRANSGRESSIONS, he was BRUISED for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and with His STRIPES we are HEALED."🌷🌻🌼🌹
God the Father loves you so much that He sent Holy Sinless Jesus (His Holy Son) to earth to be born of a virgin.Then, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins. He was in the tomb for 3 days, then Father God raised Holy and Sinless🌹 Jesus Christ (Y'shua) to Life! He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. 🌿🌺🌻 We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, and believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments.🤱🚶♂💆♀ "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, & unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, & immoral persons sorcerers & idolaters & all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire & brimstone..." Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus and put your true faith and trust in Him today and please repent. Will you have a Real encounter with Holy Lord Jesus (Y'shua is His Hebrew Name) and stay in a Genuine relationship with Him daily please
Thanks a lot - wish you all the best for 2023.
N$1.00 = ZAR 1.01
yeah they are equally.
You have shown bathroom approx 5,6 times. Its not that great a thing that ur showing /highlighting it again n again. It's quite disgusting. Your focus should be on nature n travel
Thanks for your feedback. Our 'Road Trip' videos are focused on the whole experience which includes the camping spots or hotel rooms and bathrooms. We think that can be quite useful for someone who wants to go on a similar trip. For you we recommend to watch all our other videos - especially the best Of's which are exclusively and only focused on the nature or travel.
