Serengeti, Tanzania & Seychelles
Safari & Seychelles Honeymoon
Overview
The perfect honeymoon pairs adventure with romance — and nothing delivers both like a Serengeti safari followed by the Seychelles. This twelve-day journey begins with four nights in Tanzania's Serengeti, where you will track the Great Migration, encounter lion prides at dawn, and dine under candelabras of stars at Singita Sabora Tented Camp — 1940s explorer elegance in a private 350,000-acre concession. When your safari hearts are full, fly east across the Indian Ocean to the Seychelles — an archipelago of 115 granite and coral islands where prehistoric boulders frame powder-white beaches and the water is an impossible shade of turquoise. Spend three nights at Four Seasons Mahé, where your hillside villa has a private infinity pool overlooking Petite Anse bay. Continue to Praslin for three nights at Raffles Seychelles, exploring the UNESCO-listed Vallée de Mai where the legendary Coco de Mer palm grows wild, and island-hopping to La Digue's Anse Source d'Argent — consistently voted the world's most beautiful beach. Snorkel, dive, sail, or simply float. This is where safari adventure meets island romance.
