South Africa Couples Holidays

To set off on a South Africa couples holiday is to find yourselves like Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, where - hold your breath! - you can walk right up close to those great wild beasts: lions and elephants, giraffes and rhinoceros. The landscapes here are the stuff of legend, and deservedly so. One day you’ll climb sheer cliffs for a spectacular view of the ocean, and the next you’ll hike across Savannah which seems endlessly flat. Immerse yourselves in Zulu culture, run wild in the national parks, and sleep in bijou cabins suspended in the wilderness, where time, too, feels suspended, and where you watch the light change, almost imperceptibly, as the animals move peacefully around you. Travel to South Africa is back, in a big way, especially for lovers of infinite space.

"We were kept in the loop at every stage of our journey and felt supported throughout. Seeing a baby kudu that had just been born was an extraordinary moment, and a real highlight of our time at Kwandwe!"

"The choice of lodges to stay in were brilliant. The settings were amazing as was the food! We were very well looked after. The guides were great too. So knowledgeable. We saw so much. It was good to have the Concierge always available in the background, though everything was so well organised beforehand we didn't really need to use them."

"Our honeymoon was absolutely incredible. The booking process was excellent, our consultant showed a great deal of expertise, listened to what we wanted and reassured us. The wraparound services you provide are superb, the whole honeymoon was easy and relaxed. The Original Travel app is extremely clear, as was the itinerary, and it was really useful and exciting to be able to refer back to this. The Concierges were AMAZING. They were so kind, kept in regular communication and were really helpful with recommendations."
