How to Plan a Honeymoon in Africa

To plan a honeymoon in Africa, start by choosing your ideal balance between adventure and relaxation. Combine wildlife safaris with leisure destinations such as the Kenyan coast, Zanzibar, or the Cape Winelands in South Africa.

The best time to travel is during Africa’s dry season (June–October) when wildlife viewing is at its peak.

Follow these key steps:

1. Pick destinations – Kenya and Tanzania for safari; Seychelles or Zanzibar for beaches.
2. Set a budget – luxury honeymoons range from USD 4,000–10,000 per couple.
3. Book early – reserve lodges and flights at least six months ahead.
4. Plan for variety – include cultural tours, spa days, and sunset dinners.
5. Use a trusted operator – local expertise ensures safety and seamless logistics.
