Luxury South Africa Honeymoon, 10 Day Tour

Welcome to South Africa! Our representative will help collect your bags and assist you with checking in for your flight to Sabi Sand Nature Reserve. On arrival you will be met and transferred to Sabi Sabi Earth Lodge.

Over the next two days, craft your own safari activities with the fantastic Sabi Sabi guides. Sabi Sabi’s location on a central plain between two rivers means that the reserve is home to different biomes and habitats that attract a wide variety of wildlife including the Big Five that includes elephant, lion and leopard and the Little Five that includes the elephant shrew, the ant lion and the leopard tortoise. Be sure to ask your guide to show you all ten.

During your stay, enjoy twice-daily game drives in search of the Big Five in the private game reserve. Experienced guides and trackers bring wildlife encounters to life, often just moments from your suite. Then, between African safaris, relax with spa treatments or enjoy candlelit dinners under the stars.

Today it’s time to say farewell to Sabi Sabi and transfer to Skukuza Airport for your flight to Cape Town. On arrival at the airport, you will be met by your driver for a private transfer to Franschhoek and your accommodations, La Cle Lodge.

Meet your guide in the lobby of the hotel this morning for your private Winelands tour. The towns of Stellenbosch, Paarl and Franschhoek, are on the wine tasting agenda. Franschhoek is nestled in the “Valley of the Huguenots”, where the French first settled in 1688. Visit the Huguenot Memorial and Museum and explore this country town with its lovely antique shops and gardens.

Continue to Paarl, home of the Afrikaans Language Monument, then on to Stellenbosch, one of the most popular wine routes in the Cape and the heart of the South African wine industry. The Hottentots‐Holland Mountains preside serenely over Stellenbosch. Walk down the canal-lined avenues, in the shade of giant oak trees and beautifully preserved historic buildings. Coffee shops, galleries, antique shops, and wine bars spill onto the sidewalks. An informative cellar tour and wine tasting provides you with personalized insight into the finer points of winemaking.

Today, you will be met for your transfer to Hermanus, a charming hub that has gained an international reputation through its wonderful location overlooking the spectacular Walker Bay. Birkenhead House, perched high on the cliffs of Hermanus, accommodates guests in the utmost luxury and is the perfect destination for those seeking the romance of seaside living.

After a sumptuous breakfast meet your guide for your private Hemel en Aarde Valley full day wine tour. This is a four-to-five-hour excursion visiting three wine farms in the Hemel en Aarde Valley, starting with Hamilton Russell Vineyards and Bouchard Finlayson, and adding a third wine farm of your choice from a selection including Newton Johnson, Spookfontein, Ataraxia, or Creation.

Finally, romance ignites in Cape Town at the lovely boutique accommodations of Ellerman House. Renowned the world over for its 15,000-bottle-strong wine cellars and impressive Ellerman Contemporary Art Gallery, this exclusive property enhances any South Africa luxury honeymoon.

Enjoy a full-day excursion through Cape Point with your private car and guide. You will travel along what many consider one of the most scenic and beautiful drives in the world, including several stops to take in the views and the fresh coastal breezes. Love is in bloom during your visit to the stunning Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens.

Bid farewell to South Africa and your luxury honeymoon as you transfer back to Cape Town Airport where you will be assisted with the check-in for your international flight.
