Lupita Island Resort and Spa In an adventure in itself- you’ll hop a plane from Amsterdam to Kilimanjaro, then take three-hour flight( those happen only twice a week) to Lupita’s airstrip, and finaly cach a seven- minute boat ride to the private island. But what a retreat! The thatched-roof property hosts just 28 guests at a time, and all 12 cottages( the smallest at 1,800 square feet) have open-air views into Lake Tanganyika, the second largest freshwater lake in the world ! Remote? Yes, but not deserted: Starting in late November, 1,5 million wildebeest and zebra wander by during their yearly Serengeti migration! www.firelightexpeditions. com
