A couple of buddies and I have looked into possibly renting a couple land rovers in Southern Africa and going on a 20 day trip/safari. Not a guided safari with a tour group but on our own.

Its completely in the air right now, the limited reserch that i have done so far looks like airlines tickets would be around 1,500 round trip.

The landrovers would be about 200 dollars a day, including camping gear, cooking gear, and so on. 4 people can sleep and ride in the 110s and two can ride/sleep in the 90s. If we did the 4 person a car thats 50 dollars a day per person. 20daysx50$=1000 dollars.

Making the numbers add up to 2,500 roughly. Add 500 to unknown costs and it makes it a 3,000 trip.

Has anyone been to anwhere in Africa? Any advice, tips, or anything related to it?
