Namibia’s only World Heritage site is situated at Twyfelfontein. This site has a prolific amount of petroglyphs (or rock engravings) from the people who occurred in these areas in historical times. Not only do we find rock art at Twyfelfontein, but there is rock art found all over the rocky parts of Namibia. This tour, however, is by no means only about rock art. The mountains and desert landscapes found where these sites are situated, and on the trips between.
