Luxury Honeymoons in Botswana & Zambia

Luxury honeymoons in Botswana – a wild and wonderful country – boast myriad opportunities for superb safaris. From the Okavango Delta to the Moremi Game Reserve, Botswana is a haven for wildlife – including the Big Five. Whichever of its lesser-travelled national parks and game reserves you choose to explore as newlyweds, you’ll likely be among just a handful of vehicles on safari. Promising a real feeling of exclusivity, Botswana honeymoons are perfect for nature-loving romantics. The perfect addition to a luxury honeymoon in Botswana is a visit to Zambia to witness the might and majesty of Victoria Falls. It’s an unmissable spectacle.

Chobe National Park

One of the country’s finest, this national park is bursting with wildlife, much of which is drawn to the life-giving river making it a sensational safari destination. Stay at the Sanctuary Chobe Chilwero, perfectly placed to overlook the hippo-filled waterway, the teeming flood plains and the endless wilderness beyond. An epic vista to start your romantic adventure.

You can explore Chobe in all its moods. Head out early in an open-sided vehicle to see the rising sun set the park aglow and catch the animals at their most active. Chobe is famous for its large concentrations of elephants – around 50,000 roam here – as well as herds of buffalo and plenty more besides. In the late afternoon hop aboard a double-decker boat to float amid crocodile, hippo and a startling range of birds, and sip a sundowner with your partner looking out over the bustling multi-hued waterways.

Moremi Game Reserve

Gazing down on the drama of the Delta as you fly into the heart of the Okavango to the Moremi Game Reserve is an experience in itself. Known as the ‘predator capital of Africa’, this reserve protects a lush jumble of lagoons, flooded pans and sweeping grasslands in an unparalleled wildlife haven. For easy access to the reserve, stay in luxury at Sanctuary Chief’s Camp, enjoying your own spacious deck complete with plunge pool overlooking the bush. Perhaps the finest game-viewing spot of all is Chief’s Island, seasonally surrounded by either flittering waters or grassy plains. Animal life is abundant, including rarer species such as cheetah, leopard and even wild dog. Morning and evening game drives and – if the water’s high – trips by traditional mokoro canoe, will reveal Botswana at its best.

The perfect addition: Victoria Falls

An ideal add-on to luxury honeymoons in Botswana is a visit to Zambia to witness the mighty Victoria Falls. Lying on the banks of the Zambezi, a short drive from the waterfall, is Sanctuary Sussi & Chuma. During your stay, sit together on the river’s edge, listening to the chortling hippo in the distance. For something special, head out on foot with a guide and a herd of semi-habituated elephants, gaining unprecedented insight into the lives of these African giants.
