Africa - the trip of a lifetime!

Jun 2, 2009  A must for your bucket list!
0.0 of 5 stars based on 0 votes

Spend a week in the middle of a game preserve, taking two safaris daily to see lions, elephants, hippos, and giraffes in their natural habitat. Not for the faint of heart as this is not a zoo and there is nothing between you and the animals except your guide. Truly a once in a lifetime experience. Creature comforts at the lodge help soothe after a day spent on dusty bumpy roads. Even amateur photographers will be amazed at the spectacular photos they'll get.
