OK here is a question. Which is more expensive – a trip to New York or a Safari in Africa? If you think Africa guess again. A day in NY is more expensive per person than a day on Safari. A typical safari day will cost between $450 and $550 per person per day (yes you might find cheaper ones but as I said in my prior blog on costs make sure there are no hidden costs). Let’s look at the cost of a typical New York vacation day.
| Average Hotel Cost in New York | $300.00 |
| 3 meals per day | $100.00 |
| A ticket to a Broadway Show | $150.00 |
| Taxi trips (3x) | $ 25.00 |
| Tours and Museums | $ 80.00 |
| Tips, drinks & incidentals | $ 50.00 |
| TOTAL | $705.00 |
And seriously which one offers the sights you would rather see?
