FAQs
What is a Namibia Honeymoon Safari?
A Namibia honeymoon safari is a type of Namibia safari holiday tailored specifically for newlyweds. On a safari honeymoon to Namibia you and your partner will get to experience incredible activities such as thrilling game drives and guided bush walks. Newlyweds will also have plenty of opportunity to enjoy romantic time alone, whether it’s snuggling up in your secluded lodge, experiencing a breath-taking balloon ride with a champagne breakfast at sun rise, or sitting down for a candlelit dinner amongst the backdrop of jaw-dropping natural landscapes.
There are three types of honeymoon safaris that each offer their own unique benefits. Self-drive Namibia honeymoon safaris put you in control and enable you to explore this fascinating country at your own pace. Private guided tours allow you to discover Namibia in the presence of a knowledgeable guide, whilst fly-in safari tours of Namibia transport you to different destinations in Namibia via the comfort of a private aircraft.
Honeymoon Activities in Namibia
Namibia offers a huge variety of incredible honeymoon activities to experience, whether you’re looking for an adrenaline-inducing excursion or something a little bit more relaxed and slow-paced. Your safari consultant will be able to run through all the activities available but amongst the most popular for newlyweds are:
Private Game Drives: Namibia is home to an abundance of extraordinary wildlife and there’s no better way to get up close and personal with some fascinating animals than by heading out on a private game drive. Jump in your safari vehicle and you’ll get the chance to see giraffes, rhinos, zebras, lions, elephants, leopards and many more. You’ll also get to see dozens of incredible bird species as you roam through places like the iconic Etosha National Park.
Visit the Skeleton Coast: If you’re looking for an off the beaten path type of experience, this is the perfect thing to do on your Namibia honeymoon. The Skeleton Coast is one of the most remote places in the world, a place scattered with eery shipwrecks and abandoned ghost towns. The area is also home to the famous seal colony at Cape Cross.
Visit Epupa Falls: Nothing screams romance more than standing and admiring a majestic collection of waterfalls in the company of your new bride or groom. Epupa Falls, also known as Monte
Negro Falls, is a must-visit, located on the border between Namibia and Angola. The waterfalls are spread over 2km distance with the highest drop measuring at 37 meters or 121 feet.
When is the best time for a Honeymoon to Namibia?
Namibia is a great place to visit all-year-round. However, arguably the best time to visit for couples on honeymoon is during the dry months, May-October. During these months the wildlife becomes easier to spot as they congregate around the last remaining waterholes. During the warmer months couples can also enjoy al-fresco dining, sundowners, and down time in their private lodge.
Where to Stay in Namibia on Honeymoon
During your Namibia honeymoon, and depending on your itinerary, you will stop over in some of the country’s most incredible destinations including Namibrand, Swakopmund, Damaraland and Etosha.
Each of these destinations are home to stunning accommodation options, including gorgeous tree-top chalets and secluded lodges nestled in the heart of vast national parks. Some of our recommended honeymoon lodges include Little Ongava and Serra Cafema although your safari consultant will work with you to find an accommodation option that suits your style, taste, and budget.
Luxury Honeymoon Safari Namibia
The term safari may conjure up images of days spent in the wild, roughing it in the outdoors with only a small tent to protect you against the elements. However, that couldn’t be further from the truth and here at Secret Namibia we are committed to ensuring you experience luxury at every turn on your honeymoon.
Frist-class hospitality, world-class cuisine and opulent lodges complete with private viewing decks and plunge pools are just some of the things you can expect on your luxury honeymoon escape.
