Anybody traveled to Africa?

One of my oldest friends and I made a pact two years ago that we'd celebrate our respective 40th birthdays by going on a safari to Africa. Well, it's still about two years away (I turn 40 in 9/09; she in 1/10 and we're planning to go on the trip in 2/10), but I've already started my research. I love, love, love planning my trips (I was a tour operator with OCD in a past life) and, well, work is slow right now.
Of course, it's not just up to me, but I'd like to take an active safari (one that involves some daily hiking in the very least) to Tanzania. I'm still open to other countries, e.g., Botswana, but Tanzania offers all I'd want to see, for slightly less money than other destinations. Plus, it's politically stable. That's a big "plus."
Anyway, I'm already really excited. Have any TEers been to Africa? I'd love to hear your suggestions and impressions.
Thanks!
