Have you seen the Jack Nicholson/Morgan Freeman movie, The Bucket List? Two cancer buddies take "the road trip of a lifetime." In case you've wondered how much it would cost to join the party, Mary Forgione of the Los Angeles Times broke it down. The total cost for two? $105,730! Here's the breakdown:
- Private jet for 14 days at $3,880 per day comes to $54,230. But what better way to travel when you have a lot a ground to cover and a limited amount of time?
- Sky diving in Perris Valley, California (50 miles east of LA), including equipment and training, $249 a piece. Make sure you take the tandem jump so someone (probably the instructor strapped to your back) remembers to pull the ripcord.
- A fast eight laps at the California Speedway in Fontana will set you back $419 each for the Rookie Experience. The feeling you get sitting behind the wheel of a 600 HP speed machine, priceless.
- Dinner and a good night's sleep at the swanky Chateau de la Chevre D'or in Eze, France will cost you $1,448 to $1,616 per person, per night.
- Tenting on the Serengeti in Tanzania, Africa costs a cool $10,465 per person for a 13-day safari. There's no charge for serenading the locals with your off-key version of The Lion Sleeps Tonight.
- Getting up close and personal with the Pyramids of Giza, Egypt for 10 days, including a four-night cruise on the fabled Nile River, will set you back $4,335 per person. Airfare is extra, but what are private jets for?
- The chance to gaze into the still waters of the Taj Mahal's reflective pool in Agra, India costs $4,795 per person for a 12-day stay.
- A 14-day trek to the Tengboche Monastery in Nepal where on a good day you can see Mt. Everest in the distance, $2,695 per person. Food for the pack animals is extra.
- Cruising the Great Wall of China on a motorcycle (an experience available only in Hollywood, real people have to hike) starts at $1,299 for the 9-day China Discovery tour.
