South Africa Honeymoon Safaris

South Africa is a land of unequalled natural variety and wealth. Some ecological surveys rank it as the third-most important country in the world in terms of biodiversity. The Big Five – lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant and rhino – roam freely through South Africa’s premier safari destinations, including the famous Kruger National Park.

From luxurious accommodation to the Big Five, a South Africa honeymoon safari has it all.

At the heart of South Africa’s beauty lies the amazing flora and fauna which is densely populated by the Big Five, hundreds of bird species and marine life. The options are endless when it comes to experiencing an authentic South African honeymoon safari. Some reserves offer guided safaris where you have the advantage of an experienced ranger, whilst other reserves allow self-drive safaris.

If you have an idea of the type of experience you and your partner want from a safari honeymoon in South Africa, then there is bound to be a perfect option for you.

Avoid using lonely hiking trails and always adhere to the safety precautions by local authorities and establishments. Be mindful at all times of the rules of use in game reserves as these are in place for your safety among wild animals. Consult local authorities before travelling to South African safari detsinations for any warnings regarding malaria and be sure to check any required vaccinations. South Africa operates in Rands and most towns and cities have accessible ATM machines or mastercard/visa facilities.

The best time for a couple to enjoy their honeymoon safari in South Africa is May to September. South Africa has a lot to offer; fascinating game reserves, a breathtaking animal world and the most adventurous opportunity to spend an unforgettable honeymoon on a safari.

In most of South Africa December, January and February experience a high rainfall. During March and April, rainfall decreases and it starts getting colder. The opposite is true for the Cape region.
