I did not realise the cost. I assumed would be similar for other nice hotels ie $1000 a night. Jasper2009 showed me some for $2000 a night that were entry level 5 star suites. I did really like them. Im on my phone so will list the suggestion when I can.

I told husband that for 1 we get nothing special so we need to go to $2000 a night. I thought he'd complain but he just shrugged his shoulders and said ok. It does add up as others say. Add in biz airfares from Australia and its a 30k trip.

To others who went. Was it everything and more you hoped for?

I'm just not sure after the safari there is enough for me to do that I'd like if I was spending this sort of money.
