BEST HONEYMOON DESTINATIONS 2023

Honeymoons are the perfect opportunity to indulge in a once-in-a-life-time trip. For those who picture sharing bucket-list nature experiences and unforgettable scenery, a Kenya and Seychelles honeymoon is a spectacular, luxury honeymoon choice. Truly one of 'life's great journeys'.

As one of Africa's most popular honeymoon destinations, (the land which inspired Karen Blixen's famous book 'Out of Africa'), it is impossible for couples not to get lost in the romance evident in Kenya’s vast horizons, majestic wildlife, warm people and stunning skies. The islands of the Seychelles offer an idyllic, tropical beach stay that’s a little out of the norm. Pristine white sands, swaying palms and warm tropical water combined with year-round sunshine, friendly locals and amazing water and wildlife activities makes the Seychelles one of the most sought-after beach honeymoons spots.

A honeymoon in Rwanda is guaranteed to bring out the adventurer in you. Rwanda is an incredibly beautiful country of unmatched geographical diversity; fertile green hills interspersed with multiple lakes, rivers, savannah, rainforests, mountains, craters and waterfalls... the perfect romantic backdrop for the holiday of a lifetime.

What could be a more memorable honeymoon experience than seeing the endangered mountain gorilla in the wild? Trekking through equatorial forest of the Volcanoes National Park is a real thrill and the interaction with the gorillas is both extremely emotional and exciting. Certainly a treasured lifetime memory to share with the one you love. This luxury itinerary seamlessly combines a gorilla tracking experience in Rwanda's Volcanoes National Park with a traditional safari in the beautiful Akagera National Park, all whilst staying in two of Rwanda's most luxurious lodges.

Botswana is one of Africa's most beautiful countries offering an astounding variety of unspoiled landscapes and arguably the best game viewing on the continent. A honeymoon in Botswana is all about enjoying the solitude of the vast wilderness from ultra-luxe, eco-sensitive camps.

Imagine the excitement of an early morning game drive or traditional mokoro ride, followed by candlelit dining under a star-studded African night. Immerse yourselves in the African wilderness by choosing to sleep in a luxurious canvas tent and indulge with a romantic rose petal bath overlooking the famous Okavango Delta's waterways. Smoldering sunsets provide endless opportunities for champagne toasts and for the more adventurous honeymooners there are helicopter fly-overs and quad-biking across the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans.

Unlike other destinations in the world that simply provide one major attraction, South Africa is an entirely diverse country offering a range of unique experiences. It’s no surprise that South Africa is one of our most popular honeymoon destinations that has attracted newly-weds for all the right reasons. Combining South Africa with Mozambique is a recipe for an unforgettable start to married life, as Mozambique is all about 'barefoot luxury' and the perfect way to unwind and relax in privacy after the excitement of the city and safari.

Explore the iconic sites of Cape Town before making your way to the stunning Cape Winelands region, South Africa's own gastronomic route. Your safari is next and you will travel to South Africa's premier safari region, the Kruger National Park where you will spend your time enjoying classic Big 5 game viewing. The final part of this special honeymoon adventure is spent in Mozambique to enjoy castaway luxury in Condé Nast Traveler's rated ‘Best Island in Africa and Indian Ocean 2023’.
