Honeymoons in Africa

Tanzania

Tanzania’s iconic Great Wildebeest Migration takes place in the Serengeti, but the country is also home to large cats, vast elephant herds, and healthy chimpanzee-filled rainforests.

The blue Indian Ocean islands, paired with unspoiled wildlife parks and reserves, provide for an amazing African honeymoon getaway that is both unspoiled and real.

The next honeymoon destination in Africa is Botswana. On a honeymoon safari in Botswana, you can see tens of thousands of elephants, big cats, and wild dogs, as well as rivers overflowing with crocodiles and hippopotamuses.

At the right time of year, reserves and parks offer a wonderful safari experience. Botswana is easily accessible, with intimate mobile boutique camps in remote areas, and can easily be combined with South Africa’s or Mozambique’s beaches.
