Deadvlei

If you're after one of the world's most surreal landscapes—ghostly white salt pan, skeletal trees, burnt-orange dunes—Deadvlei is genuinely worth the trip and the entry fee. The 4.9 rating from 646 reviews suggests people aren't overselling it; go early morning to dodge crowds and heat, and book a guided tour (43 options on Viator) rather than driving yourself unless you're confident in sand.
