South Africa HoneymoonSavour an exciting honeymoon adventure on a South African safari. From just a heartbeat away, watch elephants, lions, cheetahs, rhinos and other wildlife move freely through their natural habitat in some of Africa’s best-managed national parks. Things to do and seeBetween the Limpopo River on South Africa’s north-eastern border and the semi-arid west coast and subtropical east coast lie a choice of parks and luxurious private reserves hosting safari adventures through immensely varied terrain. See wildlife interact with each other from an open-topped vehicle, on a specialist safari on foot, from a canoe, atop an elephant or on horseback, all the while accompanied by knowledgeable, armed game rangers. Encounter the ‘big five' – lion, leopard, rhino, elephant and buffalo – at South Africa's famous Kruger National Park. Track down herds of elephant in Addo Elephant National Park and see more rhinos than anywhere else on earth on a foot safari through the subtropical Hluhluwe-Umfolozi Game Reserve in KwaZulu-Natal. Go bird watching on horseback at iSimangaliso Wetland Park and admire ancient rock art amid the rugged peaks of the Drakensberg mountains. Marvel at the antics of jackass penguins at Boulders Beach in Simonstown before climbing up to the lighthouses on the Cape of Good Hope. Along the way discover memorable South African customs and traditions. | |||||||||||
Best time to visit South Africa?The dry winter months between June and October are considered the best times to travel as vegetation is sparse and animals are easier to see because they concentrate around diminishing water holes. However, spring and summer are also a good time to visit as the vegetation is lush and many animals give birth. |
