Opting For A Honeymoon Safari

By Stacey Burt


Today more and more couples are opting for safaris as a way to celebrate after their wedding. With the bewildering array of information on offer in the media and on various websites, it can be quite daunting to choose a honeymoon safari. Rather than choosing a destination first, it is often better to first consider the type of experience desired. There are a number of factors to take into account, with budget often being the most important consideration.

It is also a good idea to consider type of travel and whether simple camps, luxury tented camps or traditional lodges are preferred. The couple may be quite happy about joining a group or they may prefer to customize their own tour. Fortunately, there are many companies prepared to help with planning.

Most couples want some luxury when it comes to accommodation and they will not be disappointed. Many of the lodges are extremely luxurious and even the tented camps have a high standard of accommodation. Beautifully designed and decorated private suites are available for the special couple. Of course those with a more limited budget have simpler options available to them.

There is no shortage of romance with moonlit baths, candlelit private dinners and champagne breakfasts in the bush, all creating memories that will never be forgotten. Couples are often made to feel very special by the managers of lodges and camps with complimentary bottles of champagne on arrival and other thoughtful gestures.

Many of the countries in Africa like Kenya, Tanzania and Zambia are favorite locations. The destination chosen will depend largely on the type of experience the couple is looking for. Tanzania, for example, offers the option of game viewing for a couple of days, followed by time relaxing on the beach.

Great care is taken to ensure that meals on safaris are inviting. They are usually prepared by well trained chefs. Of course, the type of food available depends on what option has been chosen but in most cases it is plentiful and enticing with plenty of fresh ingredients being used. Of course the lodges are often well known for their enticing restaurants.

For couples who are fearful about the idea of sleeping in tents, going on game drives in open-sided vehicles or being bitten by poisonous snakes and insects, they are soon reassured when given all the relevant information regarding their safety. The best companies make use of expert guides, well trained to avoid any real danger and every possible measure is taken to ensure the safety of individuals at all times.

A company with many years of experience and a good reputation knows exactly how to offer the most rewarding experience, customizing a trip to get the most out of what has been budgeted. Planning can be complex and confusing so relying on such expertise makes a big difference. A couple can enjoy quality time together and creating memories they will treasure for many years to come.
