Our Luxury Safari Honeymoon Itineraries and Accommodations

Safari honeymoons are catching the eye of adventurous couples who want more from their honeymoon than just lounging at a beach resort (although we love a safari beach honeymoon). They're all about mixing excitement, love and the stunning beauty of nature.

At the heart of a safari honeymoon is getting up close with animals in their natural habitat. Imagine seeing the Big Five on game drives or spotting unique big cats like snow leopards in India. With luxurious safari accommodation options, you can wake up each morning to the sights and sounds of the wilderness in all its majesty, making your honeymoon even more thrilling and unforgettable.

Unique Safari Honeymoon Destinations

When it comes to picking a one-of-a-kind place for a safari honeymoon, some spots really shine. The Maasai Mara in Kenya is one of those places, famous for its wide-open spaces and lots of animals. It gives you an up-close look at nature with activities like driving around to see wildlife, flying in hot air balloons, and staying in fancy places with unique amenities such as in-room spa treatments and sundowners around sunken fire pits.

For folks wanting something different from Africa's usual spots, South Africa has loads to offer. You can go on safaris that are unlike any other from the well-known Kruger National Park to the exclusive game reserves like Sabi Sands. These places give you plenty of chances to spot the Big Five and soak up the African wilderness' beauty.

However, there are a few extra special safari honeymoon destinations that promise unforgettable moments.

  • The enchanting landscapes of Botswana

    The enchanting landscapes of Botswana

    Botswana stands out as a dreamy spot for a safari honeymoon, thanks to its breathtaking scenery and amazing animal sightings. At the heart of it all is the Okavango Delta, recognized by UNESCO and famous for being an untouched natural paradise filled with wildlife like elephants, lions, and hippos. Imagine yourself quietly paddling in a mokoro canoe through the delta's waterways, watching animals up close on the banks. Or picture soaring above in a private helicopter ride for an incredible view of this vast area and its creatures. With top-notch lodges and camps that offer great service in comfort, your honeymoon here promises to be something you'll always remember.

  • The wild heart of Tanzania

    The wild heart of Tanzania

    The Serengeti in Tanzania doesn't really need an introduction. It's a top spot for safaris around the globe, known for its huge open spaces, breadth of animals, and the renowned wildebeest migration.

    Imagine yourself at the edge of the wide-open Serengeti plains. You're watching millions of wildebeests and zebras moving across this vast area on their annual migration. This amazing view shows how incredible nature can be, and if you go on a safari honeymoon in Tanzania, you get to see all this with your own eyes.

    But there’s more to see in Tanzania than just the Serengeti during a safari honeymoon. With stunning sights like Ngorongoro Crater and beautiful areas filled with acacia trees, Tanzania offers lots of different experiences for anyone wanting to explore more on their trip.

  • The diversity of Ecuador’s Amazon

    The diversity of Ecuador’s Amazon

    If you're dreaming of a honeymoon that's different from anything else and takes you away from the usual spots, think about heading to the Amazon rainforest in Ecuador. It's an amazing place with so much wildlife, like bright birds and hard-to-find jaguars.

    As you walk through the Amazon, go on river cruises, or look for animals with guides, you'll be surrounded by all its sounds and sights. You'll see how everything in this natural habitat fits together perfectly - the plants, animals, and even local communities who live there.

    Staying in luxury lodges and river boats that care about nature means you can do lots of fun things while learning what makes this area special. A safari honeymoon here isn't just memorable; it lets you dive deep into one of Earth’s most incredible spots, where you can explore and track the camp’s unique mammal species. So why not take a chance on exploring deeper into these lush forests to uncover their wonders?

  • The elusive sights of Sri Lanka’s National Parks

    The elusive sights of Sri Lanka’s National Parks

    Sri Lanka is a destination you could easily escape to for a few weeks, and still come back for more. From lazy beach days (making it a great spot for safari and beach) to the charming hill country, Sri Lanka is rife with incredible experiences.

    Its safaris are no different, with a number of elusive animals calling Sri Lanka’s national parks their home. Traipse after the aloof sloth bear and leopards in Yala and experience village life with the local Veddhas tribes, all while staying in private luxury huts and lodges. Relatively unthought of by the wider traveling world, our discerning honeymooners really get the chance to immerse themselves in the wildlife and culture of this country.

    Get a taste of ancient traditions, authentic cultural experiences and unique wildlife spotting on a honeymoon safari in Sri Lanka.

Enhancing Your Honeymoon: Activities Beyond the Safari

Going on a safari might be the main event of your honeymoon, but there's so much more you can do to make it even better.

Think about floating across the sky in a hot air balloon as the sun comes up, giving you a bird's eye view of Africa's vast lands. Or imagine having dinner with your loved one under the night sky filled with stars, all while listening to nature’s own soundtrack. With local communities around, you have the chance to dive into their culture and learn how they live day-to-day.

You can also add a beach stay to your safari honeymoon for a luscious blend of adventure and tranquillity. Spend the first few days of your honeymoon acclimating to the new time zone while lounging on palm-fringed beaches, or take time to reminisce on your recent adventures with a few beach days at the end to really pull the whole honeymoon together.
