Thanks for watching everyone! We had such an amazing time exploring South Africa and can't wait to share the rest with you! We're trying out a new style of "series videos" so let us know what you think!
Enjoyed this video .... I'm from SA and its funny because I haven't even left my province/state ever before and it feels like you guys explored more of the country than I ever will😂 anyways glad to see you guys enjoyed yourselves and experienced something new ❤
A short while ago me and my family where on the beach close to the Cape Town waterfront and a penguin came out of the ocean, approached me and brushed up against me. It was an amazing experience
I’m so happy you got a chance to visit South Africa. I now live in Australia but visit every 2-3yrs. Be warned though, once you’ve experienced an African safari & our people, you’ll be hooked & definitely long to return! 😅
Happy you guys enjoyed your time in our country, as a proud South African you can't go wrong coming here for a vacation and seeing the incredible wildlife here
No u went wrong when u wrote this sa is knows for its beauty and culture sure but have u considered how bad our presidents are at presidenting? 😂 no wait serious , we have something called loadshedding which cuts power for a few hours just bc our presidents steals the money
Thank you for making this beautiful video of our country. As a South African it reminds me again of the beautiful country we have and everything I so easily don't notice anymore being in the city. You guys are awesome.
As a south african living in Anchorage and is only home in south africa 2 months a year now, omg i miss Cape Town so so much! Hope you enjoyed your stay in my beautiful country and you are always welcome to come back!
Thank you for showcasing our Beautiful country in a positive light.... I really enjoyed your Video! If you think you had a great time, come visit us in December, you wont go back to the USA!
This video is put together so well! Now I’ll have to binge the rest of the series. We just got back from a two week trip to South Africa and it blew us away!
The episode format is great! Ok I admit it.. I am an idiot! I thought penguins were mainly in snowy and cold places and I know you said winter but I still thought it would be hot!! 🤦🏻♀️ Matt your filming is really great! It looks so beautiful and yes I need to get out more! Enjoy you two! ❤
Glad you liked the new format! I also thought penguins only lived in snowy areas until I did planned this trip so that was a fun surprise 😅 and it was pretty chilly further south but got toasty on the safari in the sun. I think you’d like South Africa if you were looking for a place to visit!
Our winters are pretty cold, its not very cold but you can still get hyperthermia if you dont dress properly 🤷♂️ I work mainly night shifts and usually wear 2 jackets and a sweater and still get cold👀
Simon's Town magic. I hope to get back to my favorite country again some day. I am so jealous, but at least I have my memories. Enjoy your time. Hope you make it to the top of the Drakensburgs.
Curry is very much ingrained into our very diverse culture. We serve it out of a half loaf of bread and it is called a "bunny chow" (no bunnies inside). So you did nothing wrong by diving into some curry! :)
I hope you went to Anniston a truly beautiful place with wonderful fish and oysters.I have always found the R62 more interesting than the Garden route.Although that said one of my all time favorite beaches is Victoria Bay between Wilderness and George .The other area is the Wild Coast stunning beaches poor roads but wonderful people Mboyti being my favorite.
Enjoyed watching this as a Cape Town-based South African.. You guys mentioned in the vid that you would be here for a month and the video was posted 2 months ago so I assume you guys have already left. Hope you guys had a great time nonetheless 🙂
Segwicks Old Brown is actually a sweet sherry, not a liqueur. It's fairly cheap and works well in cooking. Used to be called old brown sherry, but in South Africa we're no longer allowed to call it that due to European Union trade rules.
T=You guys have to have biltong!!! No biltong, no South African food!!! Also, Bobotie, pap and wors, and stake and tjops on a braai!! The stake, with red wine or a good Whiskey, garlic bread and biltong sous (gravy) and a potato or banana salad! The tjops with beer (Windhoek lager), and braai-broodjies (braai sandwich) Yes, the Kruger is a MUST!!!!!! And you have to do the safari's
Bad news, you won't be able to see all our animals, because most of them are in parlement. But on a serious note, I see the episodes are already 2 months old, so I hope you had an awesome time is this awesome country. Hope to see you back very soon! I will now proceed to watch the whole series.
Heeeeey. Don't be hating on the Old Brown. Ha ha. 😜That's my drink of choice. It's lekker (nice) on a cold Winter's night, but you can also enjoy it in Summer, if you mix it with Sprite. 😉 I do have sweet tooth though. The "strange looking duck" is in fact, a Black Cormorant. 😂
There are so many better things to do in south africa besides a safari. 90% of people that go on safaris are tourists and I bet 90% of South Africans haven't been on a safari, because there are so many better activities to do.
Yeah I agree there are tons of things to do in South Africa that aren’t safari but that’s what we wanted to do most since we don’t have that kind of wildlife where we’re from.
@@Rodgers1325You sound like 90% of Capetonians never been up Table mountain. It's the most common thing in the world for people not to visit the good places near them.
I have never seen someone so excited about seeing penguins 😂 but it's very sweet. FYI: South Africa had the largest population of Indian residents outside of India, so curry *is* South African food
omw if you love penguins so much you should definitely go to Cape Towns aquarium in the waterfront! You should go anyway, but they have names and are really cute there

I'm happy for you guys 🇿🇦
Be glad you did this 2 months ago, This month we have massive floods in all coastal areas.
I've traveled to 37 countries and nothing beats South Africa! Enjoy!

The joy when she got to see the penguins made us all so happy. Even in winter and windy you still made that vacation look so good.
It was still a great time even though the weather wasn’t always on our side 😊
I’m so happy you got a chance to visit South Africa. I now live in Australia but visit every 2-3yrs. Be warned though, once you’ve experienced an African safari & our people, you’ll be hooked & definitely long to return! 😅
We had such an amazing time! We can’t wait to explore more!
South Africa has a huge Indian population, curry is a very South African dish to eat, especially in the Durban area!
Really curry 🍛. I think everyone eats curry in the whole world bro...😂😂😂
Indian people came as British slaves in south Africa use to work for British people
Happy you guys enjoyed your time in our country, as a proud South African you can't go wrong coming here for a vacation and seeing the incredible wildlife here
We had an amazing time visiting South Africa! We would love to come back some day

Come back again soon!!
We will definitely be back someday!!
Thank you for making this beautiful video of our country. As a South African it reminds me again of the beautiful country we have and everything I so easily don't notice anymore being in the city. You guys are awesome.
Thanks so much for watching! We loved our time in South Africa it really is a beautiful country
Born and Raised in South Africa, having you guys visit and showcase the amazing country that it is, is special.
South Africa is such a beautiful country!
As a south african living in Anchorage and is only home in south africa 2 months a year now, omg i miss Cape Town so so much! Hope you enjoyed your stay in my beautiful country and you are always welcome to come back!
You guys are making us miss South Africa! Loved the video.
We had such an awesome time there! Thanks for watching guys 🤙🏼
Nothing is left to miss - But pretty soon the rest of the world is going to become just like SA, so stay put, it coming to Country near you.. :D
Your pure emotion with the penguins made me appreciate my home more.
I sincerely hope you enjoyed every moment of your time here.
Thank you! We absolutely adored South Africa!
"I'm so happy!?! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😬"
Yes. Yes you are!!!!
I️ WAS SO HAPPY lol
This was awesome to watch guys! Making us want to visit South Africa. Can't wait to see the next episodes!
You guys would love it! Can’t wait to show you more!
Having visited 80 countries to date nothing beats South Africa ❤
It’s the best!!
Going on an african safari is something that should be be on everyone's bucket list!
Couldn’t agree more! Such an incredible experience
So cool to see you guy's so excited. I am 53 and I have never left South African. Enjoy you guy's.
We absolutely loved South Africa! A beautiful country with beautiful people
The best time to visit the western and southern Cape in S.A is as far as weather is concerned is February and March. No rain and lots of sunshine!
We would love to visit again in spring or summer!
Thank you for showcasing our Beautiful country in a positive light.... I really enjoyed your Video! If you think you had a great time, come visit us in December, you wont go back to the USA!

You're not an idiot. They do "mainly" live on ice. These ones aren't common and are specifically adapted for warm places. They're there all year
Our winters are pretty cold, its not very cold but you can still get hyperthermia if you dont dress properly 🤷♂️
I work mainly night shifts and usually wear 2 jackets and a sweater and still get cold👀
thanks for coming to my country
Love the episode format! Can’t wait for the rest of the series!
Thanks for watching!! Excited to share the rest of our adventures with you!
Omg the fluffy Butts!!!!
The fluffiest!
This is awesome, love from a South African in Cambodia
Amazing trip, beautiful places! Exciting and educational video. Greetings

Hello, Welcome to South Africa
Curry is very much ingrained into our very diverse culture. We serve it out of a half loaf of bread and it is called a "bunny chow" (no bunnies inside). So you did nothing wrong by diving into some curry! :)
Heres a mad drinking game..take a sip everytime they say South Africa... its so mad seeing my home town from others perspectives.
Im so happy you could come and visit pur beautiful country
Thanks! We really had an amazing time
I’m so glad you did the Garden Route, I’m from Mossel Bay, love you’re guys channel
we absolutely loved it! Even with all the rain
Sounds like they did ALL their research before visiting South Africa. I Love it ❤
This was without a doubt our most planned trip we’ve ever taken! We loved our time in South Africa 🇿🇦
Can't wait for this series 😮 you guys have seen so much already 😊
We had such a great time in South Africa! Can’t wait to share the rest with you!
😂😂😂😂 is'jwejwe bafeth!!
Had me at "it literally tastes like the name" 😅🙌🏾
10:10 That OB is a classic remedy for the cold. Stuff will warm you right up.
For sure!

Yup we were there in June/July and are back in the US now getting ready for a big project. We had such an amazing time in South Africa! 🇿🇦
Ahh please come back soon, especially October to March.
February is the best time to be in Cape Town!
It's called the Cape of Storms for a good reason.
Thank you for visiting my country I have been in the exact hotel room you were in
its crazy that everything you pointed out is just normal for us
🇿🇦 I hope you have a safe trip and get to experience our amazing imperfectly perfect country.
Thanks! We loved our trip to South Africa 🇿🇦

Loved this video format!! Keep it up guys.... You both look so happy, I think your travels are agreeing with you both! Can't wait to see what's next!!
Ah thanks guys! We appreciate you saying that. We are so happy ❤️
Welcome stay safe and stay blessed
Thank you!! ❤️
The "public white vans" are actually PRIVATELY owned taxies. There isn't much public transport in SA.
Segwicks Old Brown is actually a sweet sherry, not a liqueur. It's fairly cheap and works well in cooking. Used to be called old brown sherry, but in South Africa we're no longer allowed to call it that due to European Union trade rules.
T=You guys have to have biltong!!!
No biltong, no South African food!!!

The stake, with red wine or a good Whiskey, garlic bread and biltong sous (gravy) and a potato or banana salad!
The tjops with beer (Windhoek lager), and braai-broodjies (braai sandwich)
Yes, the Kruger is a MUST!!!!!! And you have to do the safari's
Yeah! We tried a lot of those while we were there. South African food and wine is so good! And we had an awesome time on the Kruger Safari
Hehehe. 😂 old brown cherry is a good thing in the winter. Just a small glass heats you right up.
We had a lot of rain this season
Nice - never seen someone so excited 2c penguins. Ex-Cape Town living in Cusco, Peru 😊
Haha I️ had never seen one before so I️ was so happy!
Welcome to SA and hope to see you on the road 👏🇿🇦🙌
Thanks! We loved our time there!

we did have an awesome time in South Africa! We will definitely have to come back and see everything we missed when it is spring or summer
YEESSSS FINALLY SOMEONES COMING TO SOUTH AFRICA
The penguins are just chilling while you're losing it 😅. We sometimes forget what we have until we see someone else appreciate it.
One of our favorite things about travel is seeing all the native animals!
Love Ya Guys 🥰💋
I'm Proudly South African🇿🇦🇿🇦🥰💋
Residing in The States and I Miss Home and Wrote My 5 Yr Plan Last Month To Return Back Home🥰💋🇿🇦🇿🇦

So much more to see 🙌🇿🇦❤️
Oh Lord. Her excitement is contagious😍😍😍. Just discovered this channel, Welcome home, hope to have you both back soon soon❤
Old Brown sherry,is known amongst motorcyclists and hikers as "Anti-freeze"😂😂😂😂
Welcome to South Africa! You going to love our beautiful country
Thanks! We really had an incredible time!

Your energy is infectious❤ Welcome to ZA
Thank you!! 😊
Welcome family. I love your energy and hope u had much fun❤❤❤
Thank you so much! We really enjoyed our time in South Africa 🇿🇦
Cape winters .. are windy & rainy .. you sure going to have to visit again in Summer 🇿🇦
Lovely video 💛💚
Yes we would love to come back in Summer!
Welcome to SA. Hope you had fun. Pity about the weather. Can't wait to see the next one.. 🇿🇦
We did have an awesome time even though the weather wasn’t always perfect but that’s ok! 🇿🇦
Cape Town weather is awesome Feb - mid April. Try that time next when coming again
For sure!
Welcome!!
Old Brown is also know as South African antifreeze! Nice video! Hope you enjoy/ed our beautiful country.
We did love visiting South Africa and will return someday!
Never have I ever thought I'd see anyone this excited to see penguins 😂😂😂
Enjoy your visit
They’re so cute! Lol
Where i see south african contant i subcribe🎉❤
Thanks for subscribing!
Hi, I'm from South Africa. No, we don't tip gas station attendants
You should visit addo elephant park in Port Elizabeth.
We went! We have a video about it
@@Meghanandmatt ok have you been to kimberley? It's where the biggest man made hole 🕳 is. And where diamond were found.
Aaaai..so sorry you guys had to visit with all the wind. These spots are amazing in summer!
That’s ok! We came for the Kruger Safari so the southern travel was a bonus. Still saw so much beauty!
I have never seen someone so excited about seeing penguins 😂 but it's very sweet. FYI: South Africa had the largest population of Indian residents outside of India, so curry *is* South African food
Not a bad place for curry. Durban South Africa on the coast has the highest Indian population outside India.
The curry was really good!
Lol mix old brown with sprite, taste amazing
Roads looks clean
Yeah they weren’t bad at all really
Penguins!!!! 😍😍😍
The cutest!
that's the appropriate reaction to meeting penguins!
for sure! they are so cute 🐧
It’s best to come during South African Summer it way more beautiful
At 5.26 , you should have hired a manual car. That would have been hilarious. Different side of the road and changing gears manually.
lol that would have been an absolute nightmare for us but I'm sure it would be fun to watch 😂
So excited to see a penguin lol
omw if you love penguins so much you should definitely go to Cape Towns aquarium in the waterfront! You should go anyway, but they have names and are really cute there
Welcome to my country... I really hope you enjoyed your stay here
We did, thanks so much!
eeey, Mossed Bay I grew up there😊
Glad you guys enjoyed your time in our country. Wish you could have seen things in the Spring without the wind and rain.
For sure! We'll just have to come back in the spring or summer 🇿🇦
Love the video, great to know you enjoyed our country :)

Perfectly described the tramsport except the condition of yhe roads
All the roads we were on were in pretty good condition except for that one stretch of dirt road
