This honeymoon safari is designed around Botswana's main safari areas – the Chobe National Park and the Okavango Delta. We use three lodges belonging to the luxury safari company &Beyond, due to their 50 per-cent saving for the bride. Superb value.

Your vacation begins at Chobe Under Canvas, in Chobe National Park. This is a fantastic little camp, providing plenty of adventures yet lots of comforts too! It’s a mobile property, moving with the game. Next up is Xaranna Okavango Delta Lodge. Situated at the heart of the Delta, Xaranna specialises in luxury safari, bringing you a real wealth of wildlife from a sumptuous base. Finally, you’ll stay at Nxabega Okavango Tented Camp, located in the Delta’s central southern region. A classic water camp, Nxabega is perfect for appreciating the beauty of the area and simply enjoying some together time. All lodges have a charming romantic ambience.

During your time in Chobe, you’ll enjoy expertly guided game drives, scenic river cruises, and photographic boat cruises. Xaranna offers vehicle safaris too, in addition to guided bush walks, birdwatching, boat trips, mokoro excursions, and fishing.

The final two nights of your honeymoon are spent at Nxabega Camp, in the Delta’s central-southern region. You’ll have a shared road transfer back to Xaranna’s airstrip and fly to Nxabega’s airstrip, before another shared transfer to the camp. The setting of this property is a delight – Nxabega nestles in the shade of ebony and leadwood trees and overlooks a channel of the Bora river. The communal areas include a spacious plunge pool flanked by sunloungers, perfect for watching out for the local giraffe after whom the property is named! Nxabega has nine tented chalets. All are very comfortable, with spectacular views over the surrounding plains. We love the cosy swinging daybed on each private veranda, enticing guests to spend time relaxing together in this beautiful part of the world. Activities include game drives, boating, mokoro, and scenic helicopter flights – however you choose to spend your time here, you are guaranteed great sightings of the resident wildlife!
