Overview

South Africa honeymoons - Marataba safari lodgeSouth Africa is perfect for honeymoons or romantic getaways, with its diversity of landscapes, friendly hospitality and great food & wine. It's ideal if you want to chill out after the excitement of the wedding, celebrate a milestone wedding anniversary or simply escape from the distractions of everyday life.

There are South African hotels and lodges so gorgeous that you may never want to leave. A hotel may wow with its opulence. But in many cases it’s the beautiful setting that does the trick. Such places, especially if exclusive and remote, are rarely inexpensive. But if you want to splurge a little, we know some real treats…

Unlike some classic honeymoon destinations, a South Africa honeymoon doesn’t have to be just lazing on a golden beach. Part of your time could be on safari. South Africa has a number of world class game lodges  to choose from. Why not add on an exhilarating night spent at a treetop sleep-out in the African bush! Or perhaps a walking safari in the game-rich wilderness is more up your alley?

Or you can head to our mountains, verdant valleys and glorious coast for some soft adventure.

South Africa walking safaris Why not try hot air ballooning at dawn? Or swinging through the indigenous rainforest by zipline? South Africa offers a range of exhilarating activities also including shark cage diving or abseiling off Table Mountain.

Your South Africa honeymoon is a personal and subjective matter so talk to us about ideas to capture your imagination … We can save you loads of time, effort and anxiety. Not to mention pennies!

We recommend either a touring holiday enjoying different parts of South Africa, with a focus on romantic hotels. Or a classic 'bush and beach' honeymoon, combining some nights on safari with time relaxing on a tropical beach. Perhaps throw in Cape Town for good measure?

In South Africa, the private game loges by the Kruger are easily combined with Benguerra or Bazaruto islands off the coast of Mozambique. There are direct flights from the Kruger to Vilanculos, so it's a quick and easy combo. Or you can enjoy a safari and beach honeymoon in KwaZulu and southern Mozambique...
