How much does it cost to go to africa?

Question

thousands of dollars? i really want to go there, don't know how much it costs though

Answer 1

If you go as a volunteer with an organization that works there, it is relatively inexpensive.  They may look after your travel and housing, you are likely to be responsible for immunizations, spending money, clothing and food while you are there.  Check it out.  We went to Kenya with our 2 children (then aged 8 and 10) and it changed our lives; we were there for 18 months -  the links below will get you started.

Answer 2

Depending on where you are flying from. and where you are going. If I'm going from Chicago to Nigeria, it would be like 1,600 and I have to make sure I buy my ticket atlest a month in advance, the rest depends on where you are staying and what country in Africa you ar evisiting.

Hi,

It looks like a cheap flight from the US to africa will cost between $1200 to $1400. Have a peak at this article:

But once you get there, to cost of tours, accomm and entertainment is possibly the lowest in the world. Have a peak at these travel ideas: http://www.coreafricanexperiences.com

It's also a truly once in life time opportunity to discover a totally different way of life.

Hope you make it there!

Cheers for now.
