[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]About to spend $60K on a safari for 4.  But it's a once in av lifetime thing. [/quote]

Wow, how old are the kids. I hope they are old enough  to appreciate and remember it. Sounds nice.[/quote]

That is an insanely expensive safari - the full luxury version for people who have extra money to spend. If you aren't millionaires with money to burn you can go on fantastic safaris for a fraction of that price. Kids are mostly going to remember the animals and the safari experience and those are the same whether you pay $3k or 60K. I am guessing though that anyone paying $60K is used to a life of pure luxury and the kids might complain if the sheets aren't a high enough thread count or their every need and want isn't automatically met.

No 60k makes sense. At first I thought it said 600k. And I was like, shit you could build a house there for that, lol. But yeah 60k for four people makes sense. DH and I went to on one to Kenya before we had kids and it was about 22k per person. [/quote]

It makes sense for an insanely expensive safari. Similar to the family who spent 40K for a week in the Caribbean. We did a 6 day safari for less than 3K per person including airfare. We arranged it ourselves - not through an agency. It was absolutely fantastic with great food, an excellent and experienced guide, but in more budget level accommodations. [/quote]

Whew.  I am really happy to hear that.  I would like to keep the dream alive that I could afford a safari some day.[/quote]
