Safari Honeymoons
Dawn game drives, golden savannas—wild wonder with five-star comfort.
When you’re planning the trip of a lifetime, a safari honeymoon will check all the boxes. Romance? Adventure? Majestic animals? Breathtaking scenery? New cultures and countries to explore? Camping? Luxury? Yes, you’ll find all of these and more when you embark on your honeymoon safari, to far-flung destinations like Maasai Mara in Kenya, Serengeti National Park in Tanzania, and Kruger National Park in South Africa.
Take a hot air balloon ride over the rolling plains to see the wildlife – lions, giraffe, elephants, antelope, rhino and more – living free as nature intended. If you plan your trip carefully, you can witness the awe-inspiring spectacle of the Great Migration, when millions of wildebeest and antelope move across thousands of miles following available water sources. Sturdy Land Rovers and bush walks bring you up close to hauntingly beautiful terrain and the animals.
Visit famous landmarks like Lake Manyara and the flamingoes who live around its sulphur-rich waters, Mount Kilimanjaro with its year-round crown of snow, the Ngorongoro Crater, and less frequented safari destinations like like Katavi and Mahale in Tanzania. You’ll also have a chance to meet the people and learn about their cultures – the Masai in Tanzania and the San Bushmen in South Africa. Make time to visit the Swahili coast and gorgeous Zanzibar with its endless beaches, coral reefs and intriguing architecture and street markets.
Being on safari doesn’t mean roughing it by any means. In fact, your safari lodgings will be one of the most romantic experiences of your life. Set up camp in luxurious style and soak in a hot bath with rose petals, before sitting down to an elegant candlelight dinner. Luxury lodges in spectacular settings will wrap you in comfort, to enjoy the sights and sounds of the wild all around you.
