Your honeymoon isn’t just a holiday. It’s the first chapter of your new shared story. While Paris has its romance and Bali its beaches, Africa offers something far rarer: wild landscapes, ancient history, and the kind of soul-stirring beauty that will stay with you for a lifetime.

So don’t be too quick to overlook Africa, as there are some real gems. From candlelit safaris to starlit desert camps, here are 12 Africa honeymoon destinations that blend luxury, culture, and adventure.

1. Tanzania: Safari Meets Zanzibar Bliss

Tanzania is special, because if you can’t decide between a safari honeymoon and beach one, then you don’t have to. You can have them both.

Tanzania is safari royalty. Picture yourself on the Serengeti, watching wildebeest thunder across golden plains, before retreating to an intimate tented lodge. Days later, you’re barefoot on Zanzibar’s beaches, sipping cocktails as the sun melts into the Indian Ocean.

Why it’s unforgettable: A Tanzania honeymoon means both bush and beach in one trip. From starry bush dinners to private island escapes, it’s the best of two worlds.

When to visit: If you’re opting for a safari holiday first, it’s best to go in the dry season which is between June and October. You can visit Zanzibar pretty much anytime of the year.

2. Namibia: Desert Romance Under the Stars

Namibia is a raw, otherworldly beauty. Climb the towering red dunes of Sossusvlei, drift over the desert in a hot-air balloon, or spend the night in a star-bed with nothing but the Milky Way for company. In Etosha, wildlife thrives in stark landscapes, while the Skeleton Coast feels like the edge of the world.

Local flavour: Namibians often joke that their country has more sand than people — perfect for couples seeking silence and privacy.

When to visit: The best time to visit Namibia is during the dry season, which is from May to October. There’s minimal rainfall and temperatures are quite moderate as well.

3. Seychelles: Barefoot Royalty

The Seychelles is where honeymoon fantasies become reality. Think villas with infinity pools, deserted beaches, and coral reefs made for snorkelling. It’s no surprise this is where royalty and A-listers escape for privacy.

When to go: April, May, October, and November offer the clearest waters for diving and snorkelling.

4. Zambia: The Smoke That Thunders

At Victoria Falls, the Zambezi River plunges with such force that locals named it Mosi-oa-Tunya — “the Smoke that Thunders.” Couples can take helicopter flights over the spray, toast with sundowners on a Zambezi cruise, or swim together in Devil’s Pool right on the edge of the falls.

When to visit: May to October is the best time to visit Zambia as it is the dry season. But it’s important to note that from June to October it’s the peak season in Zambia, which means prices are likely to sky rocket.

5. Botswana: Wild and Intimate

Botswana is the definition of luxury in the wild. The Okavango Delta’s waterways are perfect for gliding in a mokoro canoe while elephants splash nearby. Many lodges offer just a few suites, giving you total seclusion. Nights in open-air sky beds let you drift to sleep under the Milky Way.

Why go: Botswana sees fewer tourists than some of it’s southern African neighbours which means if you’re looking to enjoy a safari holiday with fewer crowds, then this is the place. Expect unrivalled wildlife, and a safari experience that feels like it’s just for you.

6. Mozambique: Castaway Romance

Mozambique is often overlooked as a beach resort in comparison to the likes of Zanzibar. Mozambique’s Quirimbas Archipelago is a hidden gem. With villas scattered across private islands, it feels like you’ve discovered a secret world. Expect dhow cruises at sunset, barefoot dinners in the sand, and waters so warm you’ll spend hours snorkelling or diving.

The further north up you go, the more special it gets. Inhambane, Vilanculos, and Bazaruto Island boast some of the clearest turquoise waters that are perfect for swimming with dolphins, snorkelling and surfing.

Cultural touch: On Ibo Island, stroll cobbled streets and discover Portuguese-era forts — history woven into paradise.

When to go: May to November sees cooler temperatures, and is also the dry season.

7. South Africa: A World in One Country

South Africa is the honeymooner’s dream buffet. Start in Cape Town with its beaches, Table Mountain views, and fine dining. Add wine tasting in Franschhoek, then head to Kruger’s private reserves for a Big 5 safari. For extra magic, try a night in a luxury treehouse listening to the bush at night.

While Cape Town and the Kruger are no doubt show stoppers, don’t overlook South Africa’s icon Garden Route. This lush green area, boasts quaint towns, magical forests, and wild scenic coastlines with tons of exciting activities. The wild coast also has plenty to offer, so combine your tip to the garden route with the wild coast for an off the beaten path South African adventure.

Value factor: With world-class infrastructure and competitive pricing, South Africa delivers big honeymoon experiences without blowing the budget.

When to visit: You can visit South Africa pretty much any time of the year, but just note that from November to February, it’s peak season.

8. Zimbabwe: Falls and Safari in One Trip

On Zimbabwe’s side of Victoria Falls, the views are arguably the most dramatic. Pair that with romantic riverside lodges and easy access to Hwange National Park for superb game drives, and you’ve got a honeymoon that balances natural wonder with safari adventure.

9. Kenya: Safari Tradition and Beach Bliss

Kenya’s Masai Mara is safari at its most iconic: vast golden plains, acacia trees, and lions lounging in the shade. Visit during the Great Migration for a front-row seat to nature’s greatest show. Afterwards, relax on Kenya’s Indian Ocean coast — Diani Beach is a honeymoon hotspot with turquoise seas and laid-back charm.

Social buzz: Safari jeeps, giraffes at sunset, and Maasai beadwork make Kenya one of the most photogenic honeymoon backdrops.

When to visit: The best time to visit Kenya for a safari is during the dry seasons, from June to October or January to March.

10. Mauritius: Colourful and Romantic

Mauritius is a melting pot of cultures and cuisines, surrounded by coral reefs and golden beaches. Expect couples’ spa treatments, private catamaran cruises, and Creole flavours on your plate. Many resorts are all-inclusive, letting you relax without a care.

Local secret: Don’t miss Chamarel, where the earth forms surreal rainbow-coloured dunes — a natural wonder as vibrant as your new marriage.

When to visit: The best time to visit Mauritius is from May to December, during the dry and cooler winter season, offering pleasant temperatures, low humidity, and minimal rain. But, for fewer crowds and lower prices, consider the shoulder months of May and September.

11. Egypt: Timeless Love Stories

Source: Pinterest

For couples drawn to history, Egypt is a honeymoon like no other. Imagine floating along the Nile on a luxury cruise, exploring ancient temples by day, then dining on the deck under desert stars. In Cairo, marvel at the Pyramids of Giza before heading to the Red Sea for crystal-clear diving and private beach resorts.

Cultural note: Ancient Egyptians believed love was eternal — perhaps why so many couples choose Egypt to begin their forever.

When to visit: The best time to visit Egypt is from October to April if you’re looking for comfortable temperatures for sightseeing. September to November and March to April are great shoulder months for fewer crowds and good weather.

12. Morocco: Romance in the Souks and Sands

Source: Pinterest

Morocco is a feast for the senses. Wander hand-in-hand through Marrakech’s vibrant souks, stay in a riad with rose-petal baths, and then escape to the Sahara Desert for a night in a luxury tent camp beneath the stars. On the coast, Essaouira offers breezy beaches and bohemian charm.

Why couples love it: Morocco combines culture, adventure, and intimacy. Social media is full of honeymooners on camel rides, their silhouettes framed against golden dunes at sunset.

When to visit: The best time to visit Morocco is during the shoulder seasons of spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November). You’ll get pleasant, warm weather ideal for exploring cities, hiking, and visiting the desert

Where Will You Go?

An Africa honeymoon is more than a holiday. It’s a love story written across landscapes — from Morocco’s souks to Namibia’s dunes, from Zanzibar’s beaches to Egypt’s temples. Whether you’re chasing wildlife, culture, or barefoot luxury, these 12 destinations prove that Africa isn’t just a backdrop for romance. It’s the main character.

Are expensive weddings overrated?

June 8, 2022 No Comments

They say that money can’t buy everything (and certainly not love), but often when wedding plan talks are in the works, it’s easy to get caught up in the tale that “expensive is better.”

But is it, actually?

Recently, Reddit users decided to weigh in on the topic.

u/11sam111 kicked off the conversation with the concept that expanding one’s budget to focus money beyond the big day (ie: on honeymoons!) is a better way to go than cashing it all in for a day where “you miss everything because it’s so busy.”

Other Reddit users were quick to share their responses and shed light on what actually makes the day memorable that more often than not, doesn’t come with a price tag.

Here’s what people’s thoughts were:

Stick to what you can afford

“We had a $300 wedding and spent the $20k that would have gone to a bit wedding on a house down payment and medical bills for having our kid. On the other hand my friend had a $35k wedding that was two full days of having a blast with all of her loved ones and that’s okay too! No shame either way as long you stick to what you can afford and don’t hurt anyone.” – ThrowRA_SILspilled

There might be better uses for the budget

“I’ve talked with several people that did a similar thing, they all regret nothing. One took all the wedding money he was gonna spend and used it on a down payment for a house, and another used it to take a month off with his husband to travel.” – Jan_Itor_Md_

If you spend it, don’t regret it

“I have no regrets about spending money for an event that was meaningful to the people I love.” – the_lemon_lobster

Don’t let your wedding put you in debt

“One of my friends spent 30k on his wedding. Then was upset because he and his new wife couldn’t afford to get [an] apartment together because they were in debt for 25k cus they took a loan to pay for it. Just insanity” – keyboardstatic

It’s your money

“I mean honestly, it’s your money and people waste the majority of their money on frivolous stuff anyway so if that’s what you chose to spend your money on and it made you happy, then kudos to you. I’m not really knocking the people who do per se, I just don’t understand it. But I totally don’t need to.” –SonOfSet1

A little first-class travel couldn’t hurt

“I eloped with my now husband in feb of 2020 (pre lockdown) we used the money we save to fly to Thailand first class and spent two weeks travelling for only 8grand total! Waaaay better use of our time.” – MidnaMarbles

What are your thoughts? Are you team “as expensive as possible” or team “save it for something else meaningful”?

5 Reasons we can’t get enough of the Seychelles

April 12, 2022 No Comments

One thing that we love the most about honeymooning in Africa is that there are so many incredible options to choose from. However, there’s nothing more idyllic than soaking up the glorious African sun, drinking cocktails poolside, and enjoying the warm waters of the Indian Ocean.

As travel restrictions continue to ease, more and more newlyweds are looking across the waters to book their honeymoons. The Seychelles has continuously made the list of the top places to visit on your honeymoon, and with good reason.

It’s a breath-taking paradise just off the east coast of Africa and home to incredible culture, activities and sights. With its Insta-perfect beaches, luxurious accommodations and jam-packed itinerary, it’s not difficult to see why South African bridal couples are obsessed.

There’s no visa requirement

For South African citizens, travelling to the gorgeous islands of The Seychelles is a breeze. No visa is required for a maximum stay of 3 months, making it the perfect spot for a honeymoon – with a valid passport of course.

It’s nearby

Just off the coast of East Africa, roughly 1 600 km from Kenya, there won’t be any long and unbearable flights involved when travelling to The Seychelles, making it a quick and easy option. It will take you about 5 hours to get there, and flights leave regularly from Johannesburg or Durban through Air Seychelles.

They have a similar climate

Warm tropical weather covers the island year round, with temperatures rarely hitting extremely hot or cold levels. Being used to our own Mediterranean climate, South Africans migrate towards the warm and sunny island tropics for fun days in the sun and exciting water activities.

It’s a gorgeous island escape

Perhaps one of the most obvious attractions of The Seychelles is its absolute luxury. White sandy beaches and crystal blue waters create a breath-taking backdrop, while the weather conditions are perfectly suited for all sorts of activities. Besides the beaches, The Seychelles also has its own gorgeous mountainous terrains and tropical forests filled with beautiful wildlife to explore.

There’s plenty to do

With perfect day weather and a range of landscapes, there’s no shortage of creativity when it comes to activites and adventure. You can experience the incredible roaming creatures on wildlife tours, go bird-watching, snorkelling, or take part in adventurous endeavours with island hopping, skiing and kayaking.

5 ‘Solomoon’ destinations you can head to before getting married

September 8, 2021 No Comments

You’re about to say your “I dos,” an event that will undoubtedly sweep you up into a love bubble of bliss as you learn to adjust to your new life as Mr and Mrs. But after 18 months of living in close proximately (at least for some of us) with your other half, spending some quality time with the most important person in your life – you – is crucial to stepping into this life of partnership on the right foot.

Indulging in a solomoon is a great way to get some much-needed “me time” before standing at the altar. Whether you choose to enjoy a week-long solo trip or a weekend under the stars, experts are adamant that prioritising some alone time is a must before embarking on your new journey.

What is a Solomoon?

Think of it as a honeymoon, but solo. Basically, it’s an independent trip that’s taken before your wedding day. Marriage is about finding that sweet spot between independence and dependence, learning to build a life with someone while staying authentically you. Taking time out to enjoy your company – alone – is the perfect way to get reacquainted with yourself before getting married.

Sky Villa Boutique Hotel – Plettenberg

Perched on a hilltop, Sky Villa offers incredible views of Plettenberg Bay that will definitely make your soon-to-be-husband a little jealous. It’s only a five-minute drive from the beach, but trust us, you won’t want to leave this sprawling property. They offer a range of accommodation options, but it’s the Sky Villa cottage that you have to take advantage of. The cottage provides comfort and luxury, with a touch of independence if you’re not keen on spending your time in a hotel during your getaway. A gym, restaurant, fynbos garden, swimming pool and their famous Sky bar are all on-site, so you’ll never have to leave (or lift a finger).

Leobo Private Reserve – Vaalwater

Solomoon - Leobo Private Reserve — Lebo Private Game Reserve

The key to an incredible solomoon is peace and quiet, and Leobo Private Reserve is paradise. Nestled within the Waterberg mountains, it’s a three hours drive from Johannesburg and offers everything you can possibly imagine for the nature-loving bride-to-be. Spend your day exploring this 20 000 acre reserve, with bird-watching, safaris, kayaking, game viewing and sky diving all on offer. Or enjoy a quiet time out by relaxing alongside the swimming pool or enjoying the mesmerising views. There’s literally something for everyone

Woodsong Cottage – Dargle, KwaZulu-Natal

Solomoon - Woodsong — Woodsong Cottage Airbnb

Resorts aren’t the only place you can enjoy a solo vacation. If you love spending time on your own, blasting some R&B while cooking up a storm, then self-catering is a great option. Whether you’re exploring the lush landscapes of KwaZulu-Natal or looking for something a little closer to home, Woodsong Cottage is a steal. Nestled in the Dargle Valley and overlooking the Umngeni River, it provides some amazing views for the ideal time alone. Each bedroom leads out onto the deck, where views, views, and more views are on offer. A feast for your eyes for sure, but it’s the minimalist interior design and sense of escape from the bustle of wedding planning that will really leave you screaming with delight.

A Treehouse Stay – Port Elizabeth

Allow your inner child to live vicariously through you before committing yourself to a life of forever with your person by booking a stay at this incredible Port Elizabeth Treehouse. You know it’s great when it’s ranked one of the top treehouse stays in South Africa, with endless views of the valley and sea in the distance right outside your window. Don’t forget to take your Lush bath bomb as you unwind in a bathtub that offers some incredible views of the forest – a nature lover’s dream! Grab a book and enjoy the incredible bird calls, soaking in the magical yet simple architectural design and interior. If it’s not on your solomoon list, then make sure to add it to your travel bucket list.

The perfect designer pieces to rock on your honeymoon

June 1, 2021 No Comments

Over the last year, director and head designer George Stander has dedicated much headspace to his brand, his business and what the future holds. It was during this time that he became very nostalgic about his younger days; a time when he spent most of his days surrounded by his family.

This got George thinking about how important a role his family played in his life, who he is today and, by extension, what his business has become. As an ode to his family, George decided to do something calculated but drastic: he decided to rebrand his business. Geo by George is now Leocé Luxury Couture.

A culmination of names in George’s family, Leocé is truly a brand for women of every age, producing garments that can be dressed up for formal occasions or that all-important business meeting but can also be dressed down for a casual dinner with loved ones.

“My roots are the essence of my whole being. As a family, we may be different in many ways, but we have one thing in common – love,” says George.

“With this big change comes one big promise: I will continue to design and produce luxury garments of the highest quality. This is something that will never change.”

If you’re an LGBTQIA+ couple, there are certain destinations in the world that are beautiful and would make dreamy honeymoon destinations, but are not safe to express your queer love in, as homosexuality is still illegal.

Dreamy destinations such as Zanzibar and Jamaica are among the places where same-sex couples are barred from entering unless their love is kept under wraps, but fret not – here is a list of perfect honeymoon destinations where same-sex couples can enjoy their time together and express their love publically.

Island getaways are one of the most popular honeymoon types, and the Caribbean Islands fit this perfectly with their crystal-blue waters, pure white sand and endless cocktails. While the Caribbean is a tempting destination, queer and same-sex couples should be aware that not all islands are LGBTQIA+ friendly, and these include Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Saint Vincent, Dominica, the Grenadines, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, and the Cayman Islands.

The islands of Puerto Rico, Saint Barts, Sint Maarten, the US Virgin Islands and Saint-Martin are suitable destinations for LGBTQIA+ couples to enjoy in peace and fresh matrimony.

Sin City is the perfect honeymoon destination for couples who are fun-loving, and love a bit of wilder time than a simple island getaway. There are countless activities to choose from, including gambling, clubbing and spending the daytime by the pool. There is a particular area of Vegas that has been called the ‘Fruit Loop’, where there are a number of venues and clubs aimed towards the queer community, and this can be found on Paradise Road near the Hard Rock Hotel.

Honeymoon destinations for: Skiing

August 14, 2019 No Comments

For those that can ski or want to learn, a ski trip is arguably one of the best holidays one can take. Your days are filled with fun activity and at night you can do as you please – go for a nice meal, relax and get cosy.

If this sounds like something you’d be interested in to do on your honeymoon, take a look at these great ski destinations:

Canada

If you’re looking for spectacular terrain, wide and quiet slopes and knee deep powder, then Canada is the place for you.

USA

The US is known for world class skiing as the large variety of resorts means you can find whatever you’re looking for, as well as pistes for every level of skiing.
