Ultimate South Africa and Seychelles Honeymoon

Summary Of The Route and Costs

If you are looking for something totally special for your honeymoon, a Big 5 safari followed by a two-centre stay in Seychelles, ending on deserted island in the middle of the ocean accessible only by air, then this honeymoon may well be just perfect for you.

Your Big 5 safari takes place in the exclusive Sabi Sand Game Reserve - and you fly directly into the reserve's airstrip to get here and away. 

Well known as one of Africa's finest safari destinations, the exclusive Sabi Sand Game Reserve shares a common 50 km unfenced boundary with the Kruger National Park to the east. With no boundary fences between the Sabi Sand and the Kruger National Park, a great diversity of wildlife is found here, including the Big Five, but it is the big cat game viewing - in particular phenomenal close up leopard sightings - which set this reserve aside from any other. Game drives traverse the area every morning and afternoon and strict vehicle limits at sightings ensure the exclusivity of your game viewing experience. Off-road driving enables the best possible view of any exceptional sighting and rangers are constantly in touch with each other to keep track of animal movements.

After a night in Johannesburg to catch your breath, you then fly to Seychelles. Your first 4 nights are at Hilton Northolme on the island of Mahé, a sleepy slice of paradise. It’s a brilliant base for all kinds of ocean-based activities such as snorkelling, fishing or glass bottomed boat trips, or island-hopping day tours. Whatever you choose to do make sure you leave plenty of time for swinging in a hammock and snoozing by the pool.

You then end in true Robinson Crusoe style with 4 nights on Denis Island - a tiny tropical drop in the Indian ocean, measuring just 1.3 km in length and 1.75 km in width. It’s a coral island filled with lush forest and framed by bright white beaches. Coconut palms lean over its powdery sands, casting long shadows and providing perfect shady nooks for an exotic afternoon nap. It’s somewhere to take lingering sunset strolls, explore jungle trails and feel the cool, silky sand between your toes. In other words, it’s a little piece of heaven on earth. Barefoot escapism doesn’t get better than this.
