Africa Great Migration Photo Safari + Zanzibar Extension! Journey of a Lifetime.

Africa Great Migration Photo Safari + Zanzibar Extension! Journey of a Lifetime.

John F. Kennedy International Airport, Queens, NY 11430, United States, New York, NY, US

We all have seen Lion King in one form or another . . . It's now time to go to the source.

Our meetup is off to Africa for The Great Migration Photo Safari! We did this amazing trip in the summer of 2024 and everybody had a blast! (see photos in the link below)

Encounter the exotic wildlife of the Serengeti! Marvel at the lions, zebras, elephants and so many majestic animals we have only seen in the zoo or in movies.

On Serengeti's vast, treeless plains tens of thousands of hoofed animals are constantly on the move in search of fresh grassland. This is a once-in-a-life-time opportunity to experience the best game viewing in Africa!

Like every trip we do with Meetup, this one is personally crafted to offer the best places and best use of time.

The itinerary is:
July 5 Arrival Kilimanjaro Intl Airport and transfer to Arusha
July 6 Arusha to Tarangire National Park
July 7 Ngorongoro Crater full day game drive
July 8 Ngorongoro to Serengeti National Park (Central Seronera area)
July 9 Serengeti (Central)
July 10 Northern Serengeti (Kogatende)
July 11 Northern Serengeti (Kogatende)
July 12 Northern Serengeti (Kogatende) to Lake Natron
July 13 Lake Natron to Arusha
July 14 Arusha to Kilimanjaro International Airport

All of these locations don't mean much to you at the moment, but after the trip you will remember them forever as some of the best places you have ever visited!

Single supplement $750. I.e. price for a solo accommodation $5748

    Adult Game Night- Survey Says and more (Online Game Night)

    Adult Game Night- Survey Says and more (Online Game Night)

    Location not specified yet

    *TO ATTEND GET TICKET AT - https://www.socialevents123.com/event-details.aspx?id=13268#tix
    (Multiple Meetup groups are co-organizing so the RSVP's shown are just a very small portion attending. )

    This is the ADULT version of our very popular Survey Says game. There is nothing X-rated, but some of the questions would be considered R-rated or involve adult themes.

    HOW IT WORKS:
    This completely online event will be LIVE and you will be able to see and hear the other participants while playing. In addition you will get to meet and interact with other participants.

    At game time, your host will read off several survey questions on a variety of topics. Your goal is to come up with the number one answer to each question and write it down on your paper. Once the round is over (about 6 questions), we will go through the answers and determine who had the highest score for the round. The winners will get a raffle ticket for a chance to win a prize at the end of the event. Prizes will be an Amazon Gift card!

    HOW DO YOU FIND THE ONLINE EVENT ROOM:
    Zoom link will be emailed to you DAY OF THE EVENT.

    RSVPS on here are NOT reflective of actual attendance as this is a multi group event. Prepay required at https://www.socialevents123.com/event-details.aspx?id=13268#tix

  • Grand Central Murder Mystery & Scavenger Hunt

    Grand Central Murder Mystery & Scavenger Hunt

    Grand Central Oyster Bar, 89 E 42nd St, New York, NY, US

    *TO ATTEND GET TICKETS AT - https://www.eventbrite.com/e/grand-central-murder-mystery-scavenger-hunt-tickets-1039615376577
    (This is co-organized by 30+ groups so don't go by RSVPs you see here. We'll have a good # attending. Must prepay to attend.)

    Join us for a fun, social adventure at our Grand Central Murder Mystery Scavenger Hunt. You don’t need any special skills for this activity. Get ready to have a good time making new friends and solving a mystery. Plus, you'll find out things about Grand Central you never knew before!

    How It Works:

    • When you arrive we will put you on teams - if you don’t already have one (90% of those attending will not have a team).
    • Each team will be given a list of clues and 75 minutes to head to Grand Central to try and uncover the mystery of Mary’s demise. The team with the most points wins.
    • Once everyone is back we'll safely socialize where you can share your experiences with the others.

    The Theme:
    Meet Up Mary is a regular on the social circuit in New York. You'd probably know her if you've been out before. She was very personable, friendly and bubbly! Unfortunately Mary met a horrific end at Grand Central and the police need you help to solve her case! Join us for this fun and educational night where you will get to explore every corner of the NYC Landmark in ways that you never have before! (If you have participated in our other Grand Central Hunts no worries as this is a completely different experience)

    FAQs:
    Can I come alone? Yes about 90% will attend on their own.
    What's dress code? Wear what you had on at work. It's casual and comfortable.
    What are the ages? 21 and over. We'll have a good mix of ages.
    How much to attend? $25 (goes to $29 as event gets closer).
    Do I have to buy in advance? Yes. Space is limited and this will sell out.

    NYC Singles Rotating Trivia Night

    NYC Singles Rotating Trivia Night

    The Westbury, 20 W 38th St, New York, NY 10018, United States, New York, NY, US

    For tickets and information: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1981396821230

    Do you love trivia? Are you looking for that special someone or some new friends? Well come on out to this fun new event in NYC! It's a singles rotating trivia night.
    You will be playing a variety of trivia games. When you arrive we will put you on a team. Teams will be mixed genders and we will rotate teams each round (so all girls meet all guys and vice versa; you will rotate with your wingmen/ wingwomen which is a great way to meet new friends as well).

    • We expect about 80% of people to come on their own so it's the perfect event to come to by yourself but also feel free to come with a friend or 2.

    You'll answer fun trivia questions in all of your favorite categories like pop culture, history, entertainment (music, movies & TV), arts & literature, science and more. You'll be working with your group to come up with answers and never put "on the spot" having to answer anything by yourself so it's low pressure and lots of fun!

    • The winning group will win 50% off their next trivia night (your scores will be added from each round). and the 2nd place team will win 25% off their next trivia night.* We give everyone "connect cards" at the beginning of the event. You can write your name and email address on the cards and hand them out throughout the night so people you meet can easily stay in touch with you if they'd like to.
