Regards from your favourite camp in Zambia: Lukasa ;-) We will be travelling to the north of Namibia end of march; will we see on you the road somewhere?
Thanks for sharing. Awesome channel, great content. Looking forward to next videos and our 14 day drive around Namibia this Oct/Nov. Keep them coming :)
@@NickfrNamibia Main goal is to help the Namibian youtubers reach a broader audience, help them grow their channels to be monetise. To promote videos/channels that show what our country has to offer (restaurants, lodges, scenic drives, camp sites, sightseeing, cultural festivals and experiences).
Great work Nick. Appreciate the content. I am looking forward to seeing your content and eventually the actual sites. Thank you and safe travels with Frank...
Hi Nick, it´s always nice to watch an overlander like you having a braai over a fire at the end of long driving and exploring day. I´m always curios about what other people eat when they go camping. We like to keep it simple in this regards; some meat, butternut with feta and spinach or with garlic and mushrooms, or just some Oklahoma Burgers with lots of onions. 🤩
This post takes me back to my last camping trip when I switched to using Asmoke for the first time. I was a Traeger user previously, but Asmoke's portable pellet grill changed the game for me. The temperature control was far superior, within 5°F, and the grill was lighter and smaller, making it perfect for my camping adventures. The rechargeable battery lasted for the entire trip, and the convenience of being able to adjust the temperature remotely and monitor food temperature was a game changer. Plus, the wood pellets added a distinct smoky flavor to our meals that was just unbeatable. Switching to Asmoke has definitely enhanced my camping trips and I can't wait to take it on my next adventure to Spitzkoppe! #Asmoke
Hey Nic. Some advice pls. What are the roads like from Henties to Spitzkoppe and from there up to Uis? We're planning a trip up that way with a Toyota Rav4. Thanks for all your great content!
They are usually ok with a few bad spots, but if you havent been on them recently its difficult to say. There is a FB group called Roads in Namibia that do more recent updates facebook.com/groups/265461873900547
Hi, I hv been following you for your Namibia tour. Our forth coming trip next yr will be Keetmanshoop, Deadvlei, Walvis Bay, Swakopmund and Spitkoppe, kind of a loop. Besides the last 4km towards Deadvlei which I'm aware requiring 4x4 drive, can the rest of our journey as listed use 2x4? We intend just to take the shutter bus in Deadvlei. Because I feel is not worth to pay for 4x4 car just because of that little 4km stretch of our estimated 2,000km. Tks
Nick, I can't see how you can reach your 100,000 goal this year with monthly videos. Considering the amazing place you live, with such an incredible array of cultures and landscapes, you could probably drop a fascinating 5 minute video every day.
I've always been an avid camper and outdoor cook. I used to use Traeger+ for my grilling needs, but I found that Asmoke has truly changed the way I do outings. The battery-powered portable design of the Asmoke Essential makes it a game-changer for camping trips like the one to Spitzkoppe in Namibia you've shared. The precise temperature control and variety of flavors the wood pellets offer, makes the food taste incredibly delicious. It's also environmentally-friendly, which is a big plus for me. The convenience of not having to be connected to the grid and the ability to monitor food temperature remotely via the app, ensures a hassle-free grilling experience. It's lightweight yet efficient, making it the perfect companion for outdoor adventures. It's safe to say that Asmoke has significantly elevated my outdoor cooking experience. #Asmoke
Hi Nick - lovely channel. We prefer the AluCab 'clam-style' tent. From stop to beer-in-hand its about 15 seconds. (20 if you want to get the camp chair out) LOL. Keep up the good work...
Coming back to Namibia and Botswana for 4 weeks holiday in December 2024 (CKGR, Moremi GR). Would love to meet you somewhere in Namibia or Botsuana for a beer at a campfire
I am watching your great videos to learn about places that I would like to see in Namibia however I don’t drive because of my eyes so is there buses that I can take for day trips .I’m going to come to Namibia for my two weeks vacation by the end of October 2024 from Canada.
Never realised you were so fit!😀RTT all the way - no scorpions or cobras! We have three ground tents - remain unused. Clamshell RTT is the way to go - 30 seconds up or down but most are not as spacious as yours. BunduTop is nice but expensive just press a button! We combine our RTT with a gazebo on the ground for cooking (you can't always braai due to weather) /wind shelter and shade. Works well.
Ek is ook mal oor Spitzkoppe, gaan daar elke jaar vir klim saam met die mountain club. Rock climbing word hoofsaaklik in die Winder maande gedoen, die res van die jaar is te warm om te klim, dehydration gebeur maar vinnig as dit te warm is. Het jy geweet die Rock Arch het 'n voet padtjie van die ander kant af; as jy van die ander kant af loop is dit makliker om tot onder die arch te kom. Ek het gehoor die Rock Pool het nou weer water gekry, iemand wat ek ken was einde Januarie 2023 daar gewees.
Nee nie geweet nie, ek kon nie n vorige keer die voedpaadjie kry nie...en die pools was leeg volgens die mense by reception, so ek het nie gaan kyk nie. Seker maar beste om self te gaan kyk
Thanks for the run through of the area. Booked Spitzkoppe this week for a trip in July so the timing is excellent. Like the olive green shirt…something you can get in Nam?
Roof top tents are great if you stay 1 night at a place or are staying somewhere where you won't be driving anywhere guaranteed....we actually use our normal ground tent way more than our roof top.
Howzit Nic, haven't heard from you for a few months, hope you're well boet and we get an update soon! All the best from an English man who lived in Zambia in the 70s 👍
@5410Africa, put long cable ties onto your zippers... worked a treat on my Land Rover. Also, use the ladder to pull over the top section, and reduce your ladder by. run or two, to get the tent even.
@@NickfrNamibia excellent man. Yeah, took me and my wife a few times to get our Landy ready for camp, but towards the end it was a 10 minute job! Now we have a camp trailer and we are starting all over again. Love the channel and the advice!
it is, I used to camp like that exclusively. just be careful. Previously I found a scorpion under my tent when breaking up camp. If your tent doesnt have holes and is zipped up they cant get in...plus i use gloves when breaking up camp
Why is it that the US$210 per person per night seems OK to the commentators??? Daylight robbery!! Dis erger as Kaapstad se toeriste tariewe...LOL. Love your videos and info - keep it up! Regards.
yes thats an entire new skill...tried a few times and will until its good enough to go onto a video. Also difficult to spend the entire day traveling and then still do an entire cooking segment...

Very cool. Thanks for sharing. You would love the southwest of the United States. Some pretty epic deserts.
That's crazy because I just got back from Namibia and this is the EXACT campsite I stayed in!
Great minds think alike🙂
@@NickfrNamibia and thanks to you I had an amazing time in Namibia. Can’t wait to share my videos next year
Nice one Nic. Next time pull the ladder out and use the ladder to pull the tent open. Makes life much easier.
Safe travels mate.
incredible scenery - thanks for sharing it with us
Keep going boet, this channel is going to grow.... as Namibians we are going to support you 👊🙌👌👍.... Thanks for inspiration

Nice view Nick keep on showing us nice camping sites and beutiful land scape .
Hahaha you are so funny. I also do a lot of safaris in Africa so a lot of what you are laughing at I soo know what you mean! have Fun!
At least you get me😂
A great video. Many thanks. At Arch rock. Can you remember where sunrise or sunset fall on the rock.

Already going faster🙂
Do they sell ice cube packs there
Honestly dont know
Is safe to camp on the ground with a canvas? No scorpions
it is, I used to camp like that exclusively. just be careful. Previously I found a scorpion under my tent when breaking up camp. If your tent doesnt have holes and is zipped up they cant get in...plus i use gloves when breaking up camp
How much is a Donation supposed to be in those cases (the guide) ?
Think I gave the lady about N$150, but its up to you

Hi Nick,what has happened to your channel, I miss your content and delivery
unfortunately I had to stop my travels...
Roof top looks cool, will be away from crawling insects
The day you hit the jackpot, buy yourself a BunduTop tent. Definitely worth the expense ‼️ And then throw in the awning for good measure 😜
Agree!!!!

Off road trailer pro
😂😂😂
"...and many, many more things" typical Namibian.
yip😂
You need some help? 4min15

tried that...my legs are too long for my canopy
@@NickfrNamibia the first true offroader that is built for easy sleeping in will make a killing.
