Accommodations are in first-class lodges and the luxury Kirawira tented camp in the western Serengeti. An optional five-day extension to Zanzibar also is available.
Dates: May 14-25.
Price: $6,995 per person, double occupancy. $995 single supplement. Includes flights within Africa, all meals while on safari, wildlife viewing, park entry fees and guides. Does not include international airfare.
