Honeymoon to
South Africa & Seychelles
A trip of a lifetime. The planning truly planned off. We will have these memories forever.
Absolutely amazing!! Everything happened with zero issues or stress from beginning to end. We appreciated the thorough itinerary, guides, and hotel concierge. We were treated like their most important client everywhere we went. We have Steve to thank for setting up the most perfect honeymoon!!
It was more than any of us ever expected from the magnitude of animals to the luxury of the camps , to the quality of the food and to the personal touch of having our own waiter and guide each day
