Here are a few of our most romantic safari adventures for a wonderful East African honeymoon:  

1. Romantic Bush Dinners 

Nothing is more romantic than dining under the stars with your significant other in the heart of the bush. During your honeymoon safari adventure in East Africa, you can enjoy a candlelit dinner in the wild, complete with special touches such as lit torches, comfortable chairs, and white tablecloths. You’ll also get to indulge in delicious local cuisine as you savor the unique sights and sounds of the African savannah. 

2. Bush Picnics and Champagne Breakfasts 

Imagine starting your day with a champagne breakfast as you take in the splendor of an African sunrise. This is precisely what you can expect as part of your honeymoon safari adventure in East Africa. Enjoy a romantic bush picnic as you take a break from your game drives and explore nature at its best. Your guide will find a beautiful spot, usually under an acacia tree in the middle of the savannah and set up a special picnic for two. 

3. Hot Air Ballooning 

For something more adventurous, you can embark on a hot air balloon ride during your honeymoon safari adventure in East Africa. Soar over the savannah as you take in panoramic views of the landscape; we recommend enjoying this in either the Masai Mara in Kenya or the Serengeti in Tanzania. You can also request an exclusive hot air balloon ride with just your partner if you’re looking for some alone time in the sky. 

4. Guided Safari Walks 

East Africa is renowned for its guided safari walking experiences. Take a leisurely walk with a knowledgeable ranger or Maasai, who’ll guide you through the savannah while pointing out flora and fauna, teaching you survival skills, and sharing exciting stories about the culture and history of the region. It’s a great way for couples to bond and reconnect with each other as well as with nature. 

5. Spa Treatments 

After long days out in the wild, there’s nothing like coming back to indulge in a luxurious spa treatment with your beloved. Most luxury safari camps and lodges offer indulgent spa treatments for couples, such as hot rock massages, aromatherapy, and much more. With treatments designed to detox and rejuvenate the body, this is an excellent way to relax and unwind during your honeymoon safari adventure in East Africa.
