Wow, thank you so much LTE for taking us to all these places. Trains and water make a lovely combination 😊
Its been a hard year for many, but your videos bring a certain piece of tranquility. Thank you my friend.
Beautifully done as usual. Sometimes l want to cry. Thanks so much!😢😊❤👏
In this train, over this river, with this endless landscape, in an amazing and mysterious continent. How do you replicate travel of a bygone era, in these modern times? Kruger Shalati would be it. You can hear the clinking of the ice in a glass of gin and tonic while dressed to the nines and waiting to be seated for dinner, with the clacking of the railroad wheels and whistles. This is not a trip, this is a sensory experience and your cinematography has, along with Kruger Shalati, made it come alive. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.
So amazing,,,, cant wait for next video 😃😃😃😃
Now thats unique!
Such a beautiful and magical place and the view from the bedroom is just perfect!
It's incredible and unique 👌💐👌
Look forward to my Saturday evenings as me and my wife settle down over some vino, and watch your stunning video's 🙂
You stunned us again with your video.
😍
Trains in South Africa hit different.
beautiful place😮
I have said it before and need to say it again, your videos exude a distinctive serenity and at the same time one feels to be part of the journey personally. Thanks for making such wonderful content!
Wow, thank you!
This is so beautiful. Thanks for the Tour ❤
Exceptional👍
Damn, that is a pretty airport 🤩
What a lovely and unique stop! So fun to watch the animals, especially the cats ... ! Lovely music, too ... thank you, dear LTE, for bringing us along to places we may never get a chance to visit. God bless!
Beautiful use of infrastructure no longer in use! I love the use of water tanks for the plunge pools. I think this the first time I've seen a video of you on the roads within the actual Kruger park. Very interesting, and looked like some off-roading was available but not as much as in the private game reserves. I don't believe I've ever seen you film sundowners or the breakfast break before either, so that was fun to see! Beautifully shot as always! I've seen some "LTE" imitators pop up a lot as of late, but none are as entertaining and informative as your videos.
What a beautiful place to visit. Thanks for providing us with this great experience. 😇☺️
Какие можно сделать шикарные фото этой не тронутой природы, животных. Сочетание цветов грандиозное. Отель необычайно уютный!
that was russian: the english counterpart would be "What amazing photos can be taken of this untouched nature, animals. The color combination is magnificent. The hotel is exceptionally cozy!" according to ChatGPT.
And for the rest of the world where interest in luxury travel is high enough:
French: Quelles magnifiques photos peut-on prendre de cette nature préservée, des animaux. La combinaison de couleurs est magnifique. L'hôtel est exceptionnellement confortable !
Simplified Chinese: 如何拍摄这片未被触摸的自然和动物的精美照片。色彩组合令人惊叹。酒店异常舒适
Japanese: この手付かずの自然や動物の素晴らしい写真を撮ることができますね。色の組み合わせが素晴らしいです。ホテルは非常に居心地が良いです！
Arabic: (for United Arab Emirates):
"ما أروع الصور التي يمكن التقاطها لهذه الطبيعة الخلابة والحيوانات. تنسيق الألوان رائع. الفندق مريح بشكل استثنائي!"
Beautiful! Perfect! Love it!
Pretty cool they turned that train into a luxury hotel.
Wow, it is a dream to spend a day or even two in Shalati.
Pretty epic experience! That bath in the suite was amazing though! The view!
The music is outstanding, absolutely brilliant 🔥👏🏽
Absolutely beautiful. I have been to Cameroon to do charity but it must be a big blessing to be so wealthy and healthy to enjoy this type of trip. Especially that family. I wish I had a life like yours. But everywhere I go I would try to do some charity work.
Amazing video! Thank you for sharing. 🙌🏾
Once again I loved It ❤️ A fantastic place!!!!! Thank you very much 🥰🙏💞🇧🇷
Amazing 😮👏🏻
beautiful and magical place
Nice and awesome place for travel.
Awesome video. Thanks for sharing ❤
Wow... what a unique hotel
That was just magical! Thank you ever so much! 😀😊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👌
Beautiful and unique hotel! I see the stairs are new but the biridge itself is rusty.. at least they would have painted it
The singing is exceptional
Thats kinda unique and amazing!
You should put together a montage of all your eggs benedict orders so we can see which ones looked best and which ones didnt. 😊
What I'm hoping for after the Mozambique video tomorrow; maybe a video a flight from Maputo (the country's main airport) to Dubai via Qatar Airways, and then we get the grand tour of the Burj Al-Arab, 7-star hotel there :)
Really amazing hotel. 😊
Gorgeous❤
Your cinematography just gets better and better. Beautifully produced and captures the atmosphere so well.
Unbelievable beauty 🎊💝🎉🍰 have A beautiful day Sunday ❤❤

Thank you so much for your video and taking us to all these interestinmg places.
Maybe you could also write the date of the travel somewhere in the video or the description?
This would also be very interstinmg, at least to me 🙂
How to ensure that wild animals will not enter the hotel as I realized that wildlife is quite close
Top
Wow! Out off the world…someday i would love to experience tis…
The only thing that’s a contradiction is that the wildlife one goes to experience is the same that one eats off the menu at the lodge…😢
My memories of Kruger Parc was that 15 years ago we were staying in a resort and one afternoon while enjoying the public pool, my father and brother got chased by an elephant that entered the permisses 😂
😂
Great video Mr LTE! Thank you for showing us unique and interesting locations I never knew existed and broadening my world horizon!
I guess South Africa is your favorite direction:)
Yes ❤️🇿🇦
will you make the vlog on shiyam world maldives ? 😃
A magnificent presentation. Thank you.
Beautiful ❤
Hello! I always watch your videos with aesthetic delight, especially how you look at dishes from different countries🤤 Could you add the names of the dishes you taste to the video, that would be very interesting!!
Noted!
This is the best combination of contemporary design and luxury together on a train hotel, the shower space looks bright! Other "premium" train versions comparatively has a small shower room, not even mention a bathtub.
To talk about the most beautiful airport in the world, probably is, but definite looks cozy, partly because the selection of colour in the airport are unified, I do not know what these colour called in English, but feels really warm.
🎉🎉Yay 💃🏽 been waiting for the Shalati vlog, this hotel is absolutely Stunning 👌 its on my must visit hotels in South Africa. Thanks for blessing us with another wonderful Destination Video❤❤

Sad that we who live here cannot afford to go to all the beautiful places in our beautiful country.😢
smoke,,,there seems to be a fire coming from the forest horizon in the background at (17:17)
Very nice and very good project would love to go one day. Expensive for locals in MPHUMALANGA
Absolutely worth every cent and at about $1,500 aus per day for a couple in the train carriages value for money...every part of the journey is meticulously planned & executed with ease and pleasantry that the Western world could take notes on...the food, service, quality, presentation looked divine... the carriage was just beautiful, the attention to detail in every aspects was also meticulously done...the resort and its staff are a credit.... this is one journey I would like to experience and now sits at very top of my wish list...thank you for sharing & for the excellently presented, informative video
Brilliant video, appreciate the time you took to show the details of the resort & daily activities. Just booked this for 24, of course and searched for videos. On the game drives are the cars made up of your group or is it mixed? Thank you again.
The vehicles seat a maximum of 9 guests per car (shared game drives)
@@luxurytravelexpert thank you 🙏🏻
Wonderful! But eating crocodile near the Kruger Park seems a little bit strange ;--)
Heading here in September. Your video answered some of my questions and confirmed how amazing the hotel is. For the morning game drives, what was the temperature like? What kind of clothes should I expect to use for this?
Another stunning place in this beautiful country. The "cute wild cats" and the other big five. Many thanks for these breathtaking impressions and best wishes from Switzerland.
🤩🤩🤩
👍
What kind of camcorder are you using on this video.Good quality
Iphone
@@luxurytravelexpert thanks
Can tell me how much expense for stay here including food and jungle safari.
The best of South Africa Limpopo & Mpumalanga Province.
Is drones now allowed in the Kruger Park??,, Ar far as I know this is illegal and one of the reason we all get search like criminals when going to the Kruger
Hey Traveler, This is a most unique lodging choice. Look it's a Young Mufasa, Nala and Simba blocking the road !! Pumba on the buffet table !! Shenzi on the second game drive, alas no Rafiki on this trip !! I did not see the junior executive assistant, was he with you on this portion of the trip?
Far Cry 7
would have been a more enjoyable event with some commentary. fell asleep at 20 minutes
I personally prefer no commentary, I think the majority of his subscribers feel the same. The choice of music is very relaxing as you have found out!
wish for silent dinning...

Solo a me le botti tagliate e fatte piscine mettono tristezza?
Stay in hotels and areas where everyone is richer than you, so nobody thinks of stealing from the poorest guy of the group. But for this you need to make sure you visibly look poorer than the rest.
I’d be interested to know why you chose to fly to this hotel when you could have driven along excellent roads (your words.) You have children. Do you not owe them a future, by being more aware of your carbon footprint and restricting your already high air miles when you have the choice. Was that 40 minute flight really necessary?
South africa is beautiful, but in my mind there's always the history in slavery bound to that country. And that comes through everytime when it's about entertainment in hotels and such things... So instead of spending like 2k a night, I'd probably do a much simpler stay and then like the rest, 1,6k or so, goes to Amnesty...
I had to unfollow you. Your kind of travel is no long acceptable.
Watching ur videos is like watching a movie ❤
This is so beautiful. Great video, as always and inspirational, indeed😊
