Honeymoons in Botswana

Gregory Fox

Botswana is in my opinion one of the most romantic places on the planet. A honeymoon in Botswana involves 5 star luxurious lodges in some of the most remote and beautiful unspoilt natural environments on earth.

Imagine toasting your married life as the sun casts shadows over the isolated natural paradise of the Linyanti.

What could be more romantic than greeting the African dawn (and a herd of elephants) in a mokoro (dug out canoe) gliding through the glittering clear waters of the Okavango Delta?

One of the reasons many honeymooners are drawn to Botswana is that most of its camps are small and intimate, providing an exclusive and personal experience. The camps are also some of the most luxuriously appointed accommodations on offer in Africa. The excellent staff will make an extra special effort for honeymooners organising surprises such as candlelit bubble baths and private dinners lit by lanterns and star light.

Botswana Honeymoons

Travelling through Botswana is a breathtaking visual experience and provides an extraordinary connectedness with Nature. Honeymooners in Botswana will be overwhelmed by the endless wilderness, staggering abundance of wildlife and luxury camps.

A honeymoon in Botswana is all about enjoying the solitude of its vast wilderness. Miles away from wedding stress and city life, you can imbibe the utter peace that only Africa can offer. Spend your days on action packed adventures such as game drives, bush walks and boat trips and spend your evenings sipping gin and tonics around an open bush fire. After a candlelit dinner under the stars retire to your room and fall asleep to the sounds of the hippos grunting and the cricket's lullaby.

Between activities there is plenty of time for relaxing. Spend your afternoons in lazy siestas around the pool or have a private lunchtime picnic in the bush.

Honeymoon Combinations

Botswana alone is enough for a perfect honeymoon, but it can also be combined with other destinations such as South Africa, Mozambique, Mauritius, Seychelles and Namibia.

Mahlatini has vast experience in the planning of personalised itineraries in Botswana. We have personally visited the majority of lodges and camps ourselves and we can guarantee that from start to finish your honeymoon will be expertly organised providing the best of safari guides and the most efficient of ground staff. We have hundreds of happy customers who have appreciated the Mahlatini service.

Honeymoon Accommodation

We know the Camps & Lodges in Botswana which are most suitable for honeymooners.

Accommodation options are varied but generally the most romantic places to stay are luxury tented camps. Forget all previous notions you may have about camping. This is the ultimate in camping! Most 'tents' consist of large bedrooms and bathrooms including all the modern amenities that you would expect in a luxury hotel. You just happen to be sleeping under canvas instead of concrete, in our opinion the best way to experience Africa - up close and personal with nature.

Honeymoons are once in a lifetime holidays and we will ensure that you stay in accommodations which provide the privacy, exclusivity and luxury you would expect.
