Luxury Botswana Honeymoon

Inspirational safari honeymoon to Botswana

The ultimate indulgence. This combination of luxurious camps in pristine, exclusive settings, with some of the best wildlife on the continent, is THE quintessential Botswana safari.  Explore the shimmering Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, the wildlife-rich floodplains of the Okavango Delta, and the Linyanti, a magnet for huge herds of elephant and buffalo. Fly to your 4 remote camps in private concession areas via light aircraft, breathing in the exquisite views from above.  At Jack’s Camp in the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, go walking with a group of Zu/'hoasi Bushmen for a glimpse into their ancient culture.

At the impossibly romantic Zarafa Camp, see those famous big herds of elephants on boat cruises or a thrilling helicopter flight. Share an outdoor shower together at Vumbura Plains marvelling at the endless plains and fall asleep to the sounds of lions roaring.  Mombo Camp is known for not only its luxury but also for some of THE best game-viewing opportunities in Africa. The area boasts enormous concentrations of plains game and predators, including leopards, which begin virtually on Mombo's doorstep, with the surrounding floodplains teeming with game year-round. A safari in Botswana is all about the luxury of space and privacy, it is the perfect safari destination for a honeymoon. The epitome of romance.
