First off, congratulations on your wedding! But now that the dust has settled, it’s time to pack your bags and head off into the wide, wild world as a married couple. But it’s gruelling work – boiling down that daunting list of one million ideas into the perfect honeymoon. This is where we drop the ‘S word’ – safari.

Get you a luxury safari honeymoon that can do both.
Let us introduce you to the ‘Big Five’ – from elephants to rhino, in tantalizing Tanzania to savvy South Africa. We promise that the only queue you’ll see is a group of wildebeest wading into the Mara River.

If you prefer to pick your honeymoon based on where to go when, our safari honeymoon calendar is just what you need.
After an initial jaunt in Ecuador’s enigmatic capital, Quito, you’ll spend the subsequent seven days exploring the balmy, wildlife-packed environs on the archipelago itself – where romance, tranquility and otherworldly relaxation are the order of the day. From here, you’ll begin your search for the wildlife that call these islands home – from stately sea lions swimming in Santa Fe, or trekking to spend time with giant turtles.
For this luxurious safari honeymoon, we’ve doubled down by combining Rwanda and Uganda; starting you off on the cultured streets of Kigali to prepare for your plunge into the mountains of Rwanda and the sweeping plains that lie beyond – deep into the Queen Elizabeth National Park. After this quietly brooding experience, finish things off with some time with the chimps.
Kenya offers perhaps the most luxurious way to experience safari – by combining it with some unmistakably soothing beach time. we’ll skim you over the savannah toward Angama Mara, a secluded spot high above the plains – where you can enjoy one of the most spectacular natural phenomena in the world; The Great Migration. And, when you’re done, we’ll drop you off at the beach.
On this luxury safari for two, we’ll show you the spectacles of Northern Tanzania – where bush breakfasts and starlit dinners are combined with the thundering hooves of the Great Migration. Once the excitement has passed, we’ll whisk you off to Kilimanjaro on a working coffee plantation for a little pick-me-up. Oh, and we’ll complete the journey with Giant Turtle spotting at Mnemba Island Lodge in stunning Zanzibar.
A mystifying land of mindblowing diversity, the best way to see Namibia has to be behind the wheel of a 4×4. Venturing across every terrain (and passing the obligatory elephant traffic), this adventure connects you with the country in such an authentic way that you’ll never want to leave. Set off on a 14-night journey through Namibia where you’ll tuck into bush breakfasts amongst the dunes at sunrise, spend the afternoons catching sight of rare rhinos, and while away the evenings gazing at the Milky Way from NamibRand’s Dark Sky Reserve.
This luxury safari honeymoon to beautiful Borneo and Bali takes you into the exotic heartlands of these unparalleled islands; kicking off with sensorial Kuala Lumpur, before descending into the palatial splendour of Borneo’s rainforest kingdom – in search of the elusive orangutans. It’s the only honeymoon where you can go from infinity pools on the tops of skyscrapers to the towering green trees of the jungle. What’s more, we’ll sign things off with an unforgettable four-course dinner at the lakeside Pachyderm Palm Grove.

Here you’ll encounter incredible opportunities for adventure and relaxation alike. The reason for the island’s safari success is that 5% of all the world’s wildlife can be found here – whether paddling in the startling ocean or loping through the wild fringes of the Andasibe National Park. Heading into luscious rain forests, you’ll stroll – or ride – between remote villages and curious baobab trees, with your eyes peeled for astute lemurs and even the (compellingly named) satanic leaf-tailed gecko.
While you spot the country’s mega animals while glamping in what some call ‘Africa’s last Eden.’ Whether by foot or canoe, you’ll be heading precisely to where the wild things are – spending your time at the intimate and romantic Baines’ Camp, on the sleepy Okavango Delta, before having your own meeting with the area’s noble, and friendly, elephants. While the wilderness is at your doorstep, you’ll never be far from sundown cocktails and a relaxing, luxury swimming pool. It’s truly the best of both worlds.
Nepal? On safari? Yes. Amidst the gurkhas, shaggy-coated yaks, and the world’s most incredible mountain scenery, Nepal also plays host to its own national park – Chitwan. It’s here that, at the Taj Safari Lodge, you – perched high above the Rapti River – will explore the surrounding forests and natural wildlife, all from the base of a now recognized UNESCO World Heritage Site. To cool off, you’ll have time to absorb the intense culture of Kathmandu.
Over six nights, this chilly – albeit romantic – luxury honeymoon will see you voyage along the coastline of the Hudson Bay, lit by the wavering green of the Northern Lights. Striking out into Manitoba, you’ll meet one of the most unknown areas remaining on this planet. Your goal? To walk with the polar bears who call this region home. Despite low temperatures, this is an undeniable sub-arctic haven.
The great thing about safaris is that they are – ultimately – about animals. And, of course, animals can be found everywhere on earth. Our Kalahari, Cape Town, and Grootbos honeymoon safari is one of our most diverse and nature-stuffed offerings, featuring whales and sharks alongside the typical safari fare of lions and elephants. In the vast expanse of South Africa’s wilderness, we suggest no better way to travel than horseback. So, saddle up and ride up into a landscape of black rhinos, dancing antelope, and smirking hyena.
It’s Christmas and your honeymoon. Obviously, you should head to Sri Lanka. This sensuous sojourn to the Emerald Isles combines an idyllic island lagoon with the unique culture, history, and jaw-dropping beaches of Sri Lanka. What’s more, you’ll partake in your own leopard-spotting adventure; watching these elegant creatures interact with elephants, sambar, water buffalo, and monkeys. It truly is an animal’s kingdom.
Trusting someone to take care of your travel plans isn’t a light decision. This is why you can feel rest assured with us.
