Many of our honeymoon clients are keen on a safari and beach honeymoon.

They choose a honeymoon in Africa for the unsurpassed safari experience. But of course they still want some R&R at the end! This is a brilliant solution if one of you is more of an outdoorsy, nature-oriented type and one of you prefers the 'tried and trusted' appeal of a really great oceanside getaway. But it works just as well if both of you need some 'down time'.

We give you all the details to help you choose in our latest blog:

A ‘thousand miles from anywhere’ is the catchphrase. The Seychelles archipelago of 109 islets and six larger islands lies 4º south of the Equator. This means it's outside the cyclone belt, plus it is malaria free.

The Seychelles is as close to a natural visual paradise as you can ever hope to get and a well-known spot for romantics to enjoy its crystal clear waters and sandy beaches.

The ultimate honeymoon destination!

Singita continues to maintain its worldwide reputation as one of the world's finest and most exclusive safari companies and has two lodges in the Sabi Sands: Singita Boulders and Singita Ebony, both decorated and run to the same immaculate standards but very different in feel.

Both are famous for their luxury and personalized service. We take a closer look at what we love about Boulders:

Singita Boulders has a contemporary African ambience with strong Eastern influences and extensive use of glass. The public areas are open to the bush and showcase the best in modern African décor. A lavishly decorated dining room leads to a hidden surprise downstairs: a well-stocked wine cellar of over 12,000 bottles of the best South African and international vintages, with informal wine-tasting presentations offered by Singita's resident sommelier.

Inspiring the name Boulders was an enormous boulder that sat right in the middle of the place where the wine cellar was to be built. A simple decision was made to build the cellar around the boulder.

Game Parks in Zimbabwe: Part 2

Zimbabwe's safari gems continue—today's feature is Mana Pools National Park

Part 2: Mana Pools National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the four pools along the Zambezi River are home to an abundance of wildlife, perfect for photography, canoeing, and unforgettable walking safaris.

Mana Pools is famous for its large numbers of elephants, buffalo, hippo, crocodiles, and eland. They concentrate along the river when the inland waterholes dry up, especially in the dry winter months of June to October. Leopard and lion are here, but not seen as regularly.

This World Heritage Site is one of the least developed national parks in Zimbabwe. Indeed this overwhelming sense of wilderness offers much of the attraction, alongside its wildlife.

Every city has its own special secrets. And where to enjoy the best artisanal food and drink is usually quite high on that list.

The now famous Oranjezicht food market at the historic V&A Waterfront in Cape Town has been highlighted in the Financial Times as one of the best food markets in the world! It is well worth a visit for both locals and visitors—and bring your appetite!

Crafted from a desire to showcase local producers and purveyor's talents, this market has become an institution and is open year-round. We particularly love the night market, where the twinkling lights lend a magical atmosphere to an already wonderful experience.
