Whether you're celebrating your first days of marriage, or simply in need of breaking away from the boring routine of modern life with your partner, Africa will provide the perfect setting for a romantic holiday.

A large part of Africa's romantic allure is the diversity of people, cultures and landscapes. The continent is full of spectacularly mesmerising locations and unforgettable experiences, from the Maasai of the Mara to the spice traders of Zanzibar.

Our vast and diverse continent has the ability to cater for a huge variety of interest and activities, so whatever it is you and your partner enjoy most you'll find a destination to suit you.

On South Africa's Garden Route, for instance, it's whales, oysters, wildlife, and adventure galore. This coastal route will take you through a variety of charming small towns and is perfect for couples looking to self-drive and explore without the hassle of fixed itineraries.

East Africa has all Africa's biggest attractions - from mammals to mountains - while Namibia has the world's oldest desert and all the romance of splendid solitude. Then there's the timeless beauty of Botswana's Okavango Delta - a sight that is sure to mesmerise.

Whether you're a bush-baby, beach bum or have your heart set on a specific African adventure, we offer a variety of romantic destinations to suit even the most eclectic of romantic travellers.

You can enjoy a lavish candlelit dinner in the middle of the Serengeti under a starry African night; soak up the sun on deserted white beaches of tropical islands; explore mountains, lakes or wilderness reserves on foot.

Whatever you choose, we can make your fantasy African holiday a completely memorable reality.
