So you’ve decided to tie the knot. Congratulations – may you and your love have many happy years ahead of you together!
While the wedding itself – be it a large or intimate affair – is usually the main event attached to a marriage, the best part arguably comes after. That’s right: I’m referring to
the honeymoon.
This is when you and your paramour get to relax and spend some quality time together, shaking off the inevitable stress of the big day and indulging in all things amorous. And even if you usually shy away from the overly sentimental, this is the one time when a bit of cheese is not only acceptable, but encouraged!
With their breathtaking panoramas and promises of adventure, safaris, by their very nature, are romantic, but a honeymoon safari is when you can truly take advantage of the dreamy couple experiences on offer.
Think sipping sundowners in exotic locations, having private dinners under the stars, staying in treehouse dwellings overlooking waterholes, sleeping on star beds, cruising on classic dhows and playing castaway on deserted islands. And not to mention clutching your beloved during dramatic and thrilling wildlife encounters!
We’ve rounded up some of these pursuits – plus a few teasing itineraries – in this edition of Art of Safari Magazine; we’re hoping they’ll feed your honeymoon dream, and inspire you to book the best holiday of your life.
Yours in safari,
