Best picks for luxury honeymoons in Africa

Overview

If you are able to ‘go big’ on your honeymoon, there can be few better places than Africa. Our immense areas of National Parks and other protected conservation areas for wild animals and their natural habitats offer some 'once a lifetime' experiences with truly amazing places to stay, far-flung and extraordinary places to visit and enticing, unique things to do.

Our luxury honeymoons in Africa are invariably tailored around each couple. So we only show a couple of sample ideas here to whet your appetite. The direction in which you may like to go is decided upon when chatting with us.

However, there is no shortage of 24-carat destinations. Below we outline some of our top honeymoon picks. Places so gorgeous you won’t want to leave the room, let alone your hotel. And places so special you won't care about the accommodation, just that you are there with your beloved.

A couple of changes were made to adapt it somehow a little more to our wishes. The whole procedure was easy going and agreeable. A last minute change concerning our rental car was dealt with swiftly and smoothly. The whole travel experience was excellent! We all enjoyed our holiday very much.
