Relish each other's company in a private space unlike any other while also enjoying the quality personal attention of attentive staff on the periphery of your experience.

FAQ

Will our honeymoon be entirely guided?
You determine the amount of guided and private time on your honeymoon. Some couples like to pack their days full of activities and tours, while others relish alone time to unwind in each other's company.
Can activities be added to our honeymoon?
Indeed, while most of our honeymoon packages have minimal activities included, to begin with, this is mainly to maintain a preferred balance between private time and guided time. As every couple has unique preferences, we would be happy to add or substitute any activities for you.
Which is the best destination for a honeymoon safari?
The Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve hosts the finest collection of luxury safari lodges in South Africa, each with its own inherently romantic touches. However, be sure to explore every option before making your decision - the rare sand forests of Phinda may also appeal to your romantic nature or the dramatic cliff faces surrounding Marataba.
When should we visit if we'd like to enjoy the beach during our honeymoon?
If you'd like to enjoy some beach time in South Africa, it is best to visit in late spring and summer (September - March), as Cape Town and the Garden Route get relatively cool and wet in the winter. South Africa's East Coast, however, may be enjoyed year-round.
Are any honeymoon discounts applicable?
Some lodges offer honeymoon discounts - typically half price for the bride's stay. However, this is the exception rather than the norm - be sure to check beforehand.
Will the properties that we stay at be informed about our honeymoon?
Yes - we ensure that all properties are aware of our honeymoon couples' special occasion and most properties will enhance your stay with extras like a romantic turndown or bubbly on arrival.
What is the most romantic honeymoon experience available in South Africa?
While the answer to this question may always be largely subjective, the luxury tree houses in the Lion Sands Private Game Reserve (Greater Kruger National Park) have become the stuff of honeymoon legend. Spend your night alone with your significant other surrounded by the wilderness, enjoying fine dining and a sumptuous bed under the stars.
How long in advance should we plan our honeymoon?
If you have very particular accommodations or destinations in mind, we would recommend a year in advance to avoid disappointment.
Can we combine South Africa with other countries for our honeymoon?
Yes, but keep in mind that this will make your honeymoon significantly more expensive. Popular honeymoon destinations in bordering countries include Sossusvlei in Namibia, the Okavango Delta in Botswana, Victoria Falls (from either Zambia or Zimbabwe) and the remote archipelagos of Mozambique.
Is there a time limit as to how long after our wedding we can make use of your honeymoon packages?
Not at all - we understand that 'life happens' and sometimes trips need to be postponed until a more convenient time frame. A handful of lodges do have a limit if you'd like to take advantage of honeymoon discounts, but should you forgo this you will nevertheless enjoy special honeymoon touches.
