Your Perfect Honeymoon in Tanzania

Your Perfect Tanzania Honeymoon Safari

Epic love deserves an epic honeymoon.

All travel is special, and all trips we plan come with big expectations. But honeymoons, rightfully so, take these expectations and dial them up to eleven! This is because your honeymoon is your first trip with your spouse – it is your first adventure as a married couple and it comes with pretty hefty expectations.

Tanzania can exceed these expectations! We are extremely lucky here at Sababu to live and work in one of the most incredible countries in the world. Not only do we get to explore our beautiful country with wide-eyed guests, it is also relatively easy to convince potential honeymooners to come here once we start describing everything you can do and see in Tanzania. There’s no sales pitch and no angle — just our enthusiastic description of Tanzania as the ultimate honeymoon destination! If anything we write here today inspires you and you’d like to know more, take a look at our Tanzania Honeymoon Safaris and feel free to get in touch if you have any questions.

Why Should Your Honeymoon be a Tanzanian Safari?

Because you have [probably] never experienced an adventure like this before! In a sense, marriage is the greatest adventure, and there’s something undeniably symbolic and powerful about starting out as a married couple with an epic adventure. As we said: epic love deserves an epic honeymoon.

Novelty is another reason why our Tanzania Safaris are ideal for honeymooners. Well, a safari is packed full of novelty for 99% of travellers, and new moments stay in our memories for our entire lives. With the love of your life beside you, you might see a herd of elephants for the first time, or you might see a pride of lions, or a troop of chimpanzees — all for the first time. We have the most wonderful job in the world as we get to see guests’ jaws drop and sometimes even tears of joy as they access true wonder and true novelty again. This kind of magic, and these kinds of memories, make for an incredible honeymoon!

Tanzania is the Backdrop for the Best Honeymoon Photos

No photograph will ever be a substitute for being in Tanzania in person, taking in the incredible landscapes, the majestic animals, and meeting the charming people who call it home. However, beyond the vivid memories, most of us expect to come home with one hell of a honeymoon photo album. Some of these photos are for your home, and some are for your family, but all of them help you tell the story of your first adventure together as a married couple. Well… Tanzania is one of the most photogenic countries in the world!

While you can opt for our specialist Tanzania Photo Safari Tours, almost every moment on every safari is a potential photo-op. Bring your best camera or camera phone and plenty of spar SD cards, and we’ll send you back home with some incredible photos. Epic sunsets over the savannah, giraffes feeding their young, endless herds of wildebeest trundling along on their great migration across this ancient land… Capture all of this and more as the backdrop to your honeymoon. Whether you want to pose for photos or you’re looking for candid shots, it’s extremely difficult to take a bad photo in Tanzania! So, if honeymoon photos are a big part of the equation, Tanzania is ideal!

Romantic Meals in Tanzania

Would you like a table for two in the Serengeti, or in the incomparable Ngorongoro Crater? Not only will you visit these incredible places; you will also have some of the most memorable meals of your life. Food on safari is all made to an extremely high standard – whether it’s luxury dishes cooked by chefs or authentic Tanzanian cuisine cooked by locals.

Food is such an important part of travel, and there are few things more romantic than a candlelit meal. Put both of these things together in Tanzania and you have a recipe for some of the greatest meals of your life, all with a backdrop of some of the most beautiful vistas in all of Africa. If we sound hyperbolic in our enthusiasm, it’s only because there’s a lot to get excited about!

Accommodation to Match Your Honeymoon Aspirations

As all of our safari holidays are tailor-made, we can craft an experience that perfectly fits your dreams and expectations. For many, their dream honeymoon is clear and brilliant in their imagination; for others, it’s a little more vague. If you need help imagining your accommodations, we can send you more information, but if you pretty much know what you’re looking for, please tell us and we’ll make all the arrangements!

Whether your dream honeymoon takes place in luxurious lodges or camps surrounded by nature, we can make your dreams come true. What kind of accommodation seems most romantic to you? If you’re not sure, we can incorporate several different locations into one trip, offering you a wonderful combination of experiences. And this leads perfectly to the last section of this guide…

Honeymoon in Zanzibar!

There is more than enough on mainland Tanzania for Sababu Safaris to create an unforgettable honeymoon safari for you. But we have one last ace up our sleeve: the incomparable Zanzibar Archipelago! While most think of the main island as Zanzibar, there are smaller islands around it that all make up the archipelago. Zanzibar’s history as a hub for the world’s spice trade for centuries makes it one of the most decadent honeymoon spots in the world. Luxurious hotels, delicious food, beautiful beaches, and azure-blue waters stretching out in every direction.

There are private islands to explore on Zanzibar, and you can get out on the water, snorkelling or scuba diving. Or you can simply chill out on the beach as a newly married couple. A beach holiday in Zanzibar is often the best way to finish up your Tanzanian honeymoon as you can rest up after days of adventuring out on safari.

We hope we’ve conveyed at least 10% of our excitement and passion for Tanzania and why it is the perfect destination for your dream honeymoon. Get in touch if you have any questions whatsoever, and you can ask us to create a sample honeymoon itinerary for you before you book with us. This way you know exactly what you’re booking from us and we can pepper the itinerary with little personal touches right from the very start!
