KwaZulu-Natal & Mozambique Honeymoon

KwaZulu-Natal,Southern Mozambique & Bazaruto Archipelago

Starting from between £4,375 to £6,990 per person for 12 days depending on the time of year, type of accomodation and activities

Itinerary Highlights

  • Spot countless wild and wonderful creatures on expertly guided safari drives

  • Toast your new marriage with a South African sundowner on your private deck, with a backdrop of KwaZulu-Natal’s stunning landscapes

  • Relax on the sandy shores of Mozambique after action-packed early starts on safari

  • Enjoy snorkelling and swimming with bottlenose dolphins and other marine life in the nearby reef
After all that wedmin, throw yourself into married life with the perfect 12-day honeymoon in South Africa’s rugged KwaZulu Natal region and on Mozambique’s white sandy beaches. After arriving in Durban, you’ll be transferred to Thanda Safari Reserve in time to hop into a 4x4 and venture out on your first game drive. With thousands of acres to explore and the potential to tick off sightings of all of the Big Five (and more), Thanda never gets old.



After a few days of early mornings and adrenaline fuelled game drives, transfer north to Mozambique with a private driver, where you can sink your toes into the sand while you enjoy a sundowner as the evening sky turns orange. As well as enjoying some good old fashioned R&R, spend your days kayaking, paddle boarding and snorkelling, while looking out for bottlenose dolphins and the other wonderful marine life that call this coastline home.

Itinerary

100% customisable for you

You will land in Durban in the early-morning to be met by one of our friendly local team for the three-hour road transfer to your lodge on Thanda Safari Reserve in time for brunch. Settle in to your vast suite - complete with its own private plunge pool - and catch up on some rest after the journey.

Tea will be served mid-afternoon and, if you are itching to get out on safari then there will be a 4x4 vehicle waiting to take you out straight after tea to introduce you to some of the reserve's resident wildlife.

Sundowner drinks are a hugely enjoyable part of the afternoon safari experience. Returning to the lodge, enjoy a long leisurely dinner to celebrate the first night of your honeymoon, best enjoyed under a blanket of stars.

Say goodbye to your safari home this morning and meet your driver for a private three-hour transfer north to the border with Mozambique. Here you will be assisted through immigration and will then meet another driver on the other side of the border. From here it's just a 45-minute transfer to your beautiful beach base.

After you have checked in and dumped the bags, head to the beach and sink your toes into the sand while you sip on a cool sundowner cocktail in the beach bar. Dinner can then be enjoyed overlooking the ocean.
