Okavango Delta
The Okavango delta is one of the world’s largest inland water systems. It's headwaters start in Angola’s western highlands, with numerous tributaries joining to form the Cubango river, which then flows through Namibia (called the Kavango) and finally enters Botswana, where it is then called the Okavango. It is a unique ecosystem with large populations of African mammals, birds, and other animals and is one of the last totally unspoiled areas in Africa. This destination is perfect for camping, picture taking, walking safaris, and mokoro (canoe) excursions.
Twyfelfontein
Namibia's largest collection of prehistoric rock arts sites—some dating back more than 3,000 years—is concentrated is the remote valley of Twyfelfontein, which translates somewhat ominously as Doubtful Spring. Several of the area's 2,000-plus engravings and paintings, including the so-called Lion Man and Dancing Kudus, can be seen on a clearly marked 90-minute walking trail starting at the entrance gate. A good lodge services the site and also offers access to the Khorixas Petrified Forest and a striking rock formation called the Organ Pipes. About 200 mi/320 km northwest of Windhoek.
Sossusvlei
The red sand dunes by which Sossusvlei is distinguished by sits in the largest conservation area in Africa. Sossusvlei which translates to "dead-end marsh" geographically prevents the Tsauchab River to flow to the Atlantic Ocean. This basin although dry, has a wide variety of plants and animals that have adapted themselves to survive the harshest desert conditions. Visitors every year witness this spectacular phenomenon and photographers divulge the desert beauty of Namibia.
