Nairobi, Kenya is used by many as the gateway to an African safari adventure. At $844, it has never been this low from Washington D.C. and New York. From Nairobi, pick up a flight to Kilimanjaro and go see the Serengeti migrations. It is definitely one of the top 10 wonders of the world. Or if the Serengeti is too much additional travel for you, the Nairobi National Park is right outside of the city.
