\"Calai<\/figure>\n

Overlanding from Namibia to Angola was a total wild card. All we really knew was that this southern African country was a Portuguese colony for ~400 years and was embroiled in a decades-long civil war until 2002. To plan this Angola trip, we figured we\u2019d get to the border town of Rundu, Namibia, gather some local intel on getting to and around the neighboring town of Calai\u2026but we couldn\u2019t find anyone who had been! Google Maps made it seem like you had to drive eight hours out of the way to cross the river, and Booking.com pulled up zero<\/em> results for hotels\u2026but this only made us more curious and eager to explore Southern Angola!\u00a0<\/p>\n
