Situated on 400 acres of breathtaking foothills in the heart of the Wine Country, Safari West is home to over 350 exotic, endangered and extinct-in-the-wild African mammals and birds.  Guests at Safari West spend an unparalleled 2-3 hours on a unique educational trek that takes them through the rolling hills of the reserve. Accompanied by a naturalist, groups get the rarest of opportunities to photograph and film herds of antelope, eland, gazelle, zebra, and many, many more. Because the animals live in vast acreage, they are comfortable with the vehicles creating the most unequaled excursion available short of getting on a plane and flying to Africa. Safari West features the only accommodations of its kind in North America.  The Tent Camp at Safari West is an African-style oasis, offering intimate exposure to the varied wildlife within the boundaries of the unique preserve.  The Tent Camp consists of authentic African safari tents, canvas with hardwood floors.  Each private tent has a king sized bed or two doubles, custom built wood furniture and a bathroom with shower.  All tents are close to, but separated from, the exotic wildlife.  The café has excellent food and panoramic views. Check out the Safari West website at www.safariwest.com for photos and more detailed information. The total value of this getaway is $674.00.  Safari West gets half of the amount the getaway is auctioned for, and the Unicorns are collecting money to cover the Safari West portion of the donation.
