Luxury Romantic Getaways in South Africa
Best for: ROMANCE, FINE WINE, ADVENTURE, BIG FIVE, WHITE LIONS
Your remarkable honeymoon begins in Cape Town, with its pristine beaches, vibrant restaurants, historic vineyards, and adorable African penguins. Cape Town is a honeymoon destination in its own right. Harmoniously surrounded by glorious mountain ranges, spend two days falling in love with the Cape Winelands, known for its local fine wines, decadent food, and award-winning restaurants.
Your Big Five safari is at the all-inclusive Ngala Tented Camp, positioned within a private concession of the world-famous Kruger National Park. With no crowds and ethical off-roading allowed, search for the Big Five and the famous white lions of Ngala Private Game Reserve, mystical animals woven into the folklore of the local Shangaan people.
Finally, experience luxury under a blanket of stars at the Ngala Treehouse, a four-story hideaway offering private panoramic views over untamed wilderness. This is a South African safari worth toasting to… best wishes from us!

What will you experience on this Honeymoon Safari?
Cape Town
Your honeymoon begins in Cape Town, the vibrant city where mountains meet the sea. A global favorite, it’s known for stunning beaches, award-winning cuisine, and rich cultural history. Unwind on the sand or take a day trip to meet African penguins at Boulders Beach.
For active adventurers, hike up Table Mountain for panoramic views, explore Cape Point on foot in search of ostrich, eland, and shipwrecks, or kayak alongside resident pods of Heaviside’s dolphins off Sea Point.
Afterwards, raise a glass at the oldest winery in South Africa…
Cape Winelands | Delaire Graff Estate
Just under an hour from Cape Town, the Cape Winelands offers the countryside escape you never knew you needed.
This charming collection of towns and vineyards feels like stepping back to simpler times, where mornings start with birdsong and evenings end with a glass of bubbles at sunset. Explore world-class wine estates and some of South Africa’s most celebrated restaurants.
At Delaire Graff Estate, sweeping mountain and vineyard views set the tone for ultimate privacy and indulgence. Expect heated plunge pools, natural surroundings, and curated experiences — all paired with the region’s most exquisite wines.
Ngala Tented Camp | Kruger National Park
Spend four romantic and intimate nights nestled along the dry Timbavati River at andBeyond Ngala Tented Camp. As the first private reserve incorporated into Kruger National Park, Ngala offers exclusive access to over 36,000 acres of rich, unspoiled wilderness.
With your private guide and tracker, search for the mystical white lions of the Birmingham Pride, and watch prides of lions, leopards, hyenas (and perhaps even wild dogs) roam this extraordinary landscape. All with no crowds, ethical off-roading, and limited vehicles at sightings for a truly intimate safari experience.
Top it off with a night in elevated comfort at the remote Ngala Treehouse — a four-level hideaway with panoramic views over the reserve. All while enjoying a chilled glass of bubbles.
Benguerra Island | Mozambique
After four adventurous days on safari, it’s completely natural to feel like you need a vacation after your vacation. Fortunately, your honeymoon can seamlessly continue with an island escape in the warm waters of the Indian Ocean, just off the coast of Mozambique.
Situated within a protected marine reserve, Benguerra Island offers a romantic and peaceful retreat. Spend a few days relaxing in luxury, reliving your safari memories by the fire, and falling asleep to the gentle sound of the ocean.
For those who like to rest actively, explore the island on horseback, scuba dive or snorkel vibrant reefs, enjoy scenic helicopter flips, or sail into the sunset on a traditional dhow.
