Elephant at Victoria Falls River Lodge

Honeymoon Cape Town, Victoria Falls and Zimbabwe Safari

Honeymoon Cape Town, Victoria Falls and Zimbabwe Safari

A 3-part honeymoon for couples who want to pack in some of Africa’s main highlights. Capture on film one of the world’s most beautiful cities Cape Town, tick off the iconic Victoria Falls from your bucket list and experience an unforgettable luxury safari in Zimbabwe’s Hwange National Park.

In Cape Town, with your own hire car, you can explore the sights at your leisure. You will stay in one of the city’s most iconic luxury hotels, The Mount Nelson, and spend 4 days exploring Cape Town’s incredible landscapes including Table Mountain and Cape Point. There will also be time for wine tasting, eating out at the V&A Waterfront and lounging on the trendy Camps Bay and Clifton Beaches. The second portion of your honeymoon is in neighbouring country of Zimbabwe at Victoria Falls, one of the world’s natural wonders. At Victoria Falls River Lodge, you will stay in a luxurious tented suite on the banks of the Zambezi River, yet close enough to the Falls to see the mist in the distance. There are plenty of adrenaline-fueled activities in the area, but also plenty of time to toast your married life while gazing at exquisite river sunsets. The honeymoon will end at a luxury tented camp in Hwange National Park, famous for its huge herds of elephants and buffalo. You will be spoilt in an expansive tented suite with views over a waterhole. The camera will be packed to the brim with photos of the incredible wildlife you will get to see on your game drives.
