With its recent independence from South Africa, this frontier nation is a surprise to most. After landing in Windhoek, travel to Sossusvlei, one of Namibia’s most stunning landmarks. Arrive at your lodge at the end of the day just in time to settle in and enjoy your first dinner with your traveling companions.

Climb one of these epic dunes to access Deadvlei, a salt pan famous for its ancient petrified trees. A paradise for photographers and scenery enthusiasts alike, the Namib desert will leave lasting memories.
