Don't know where you are..
but no, $3000 will not get you a
9 day trip in the better camps in
Botswana if that must also include
international airfare. $5000 would
be about bottom dollar.

Overseas Adventure Travel has one
that starts at $4395 from the east
coast of the US that is actually 18 days,
not really upscale, but a lot of Africa
for the money though it is a little weird
in some of the places it uses.
