Any honeymoon in Tanzania should include a visit to the famous Serengeti National Park. It is regarded as the oldest national park in Tanzania, and the flagship of the country’s tourism industry. The park is famous for the annual Great Migration which sees more than 1.5 million wildebeest and zebras trekking up to 1,000km across the dry terrain in search of water and greener grazing ground. The enormous stretch of rolling savannahs dotted with beautiful lakes is known across the globe for its abundance of wildlife. Considering the varieties of wildlife on the open plains of the region, the Serengeti is the perfect adventure for honeymooners who want to blend their romance with unforgettable adventures in the wild.
Best Features of the Serengeti National Park for Honeymooners:
The list of endless possibilities the Serengeti offers honeymooners is unrivaled. The stunning views of the uncharted Serengeti territory along with the many fascinating animals offer honeymooners a romantic adventure and many cherished memories that will stand the test of time. The Serengeti National Park offers an array of wild splendor for newlyweds, including;
Game Drives
The game drive fills you and your spouse in with a close-up experience with the wonders of the wild. This is one sure moment honeymooners get intimate emotionally just by sharing this view of the Serengeti, seeing how the animals live in their natural habitat. Sights of the wild are guaranteed to give you goosebumps and also show just how beautiful our world looks.
Experience ‘The Great Migration’
This is undoubtedly one of the epic moments of a lifetime that honeymooners can share together. The Great Migration is often regarded as ‘the world cup’ of wildlife and is the highlight of a honeymoon in Tanzania. You can experience the Great Migration at any time during the year but especially between June and October is popular due to the so-called river crossing where you get the rare opportunity of witnessing millions of wildebeest together with thousands of zebras and antelopes crossing the big Mara River with crocodiles and lions waiting for a chance. Another great time to visit is during the first quarter of the year where you can witness thousands of young wildebeest being born. Perfect for a romantic experience in the wild.
Exclusive Bush breakfast
A romantic bush breakfast can be orchestrated for honeymooners in the Serengeti wild. On waking up with your spouse, an amazing table with fine linen, fresh African bloom, and a scenic view is organized to ensure honeymooners kick start their daily routine with a touch of ‘wild class’. The chef prepares tasty dishes with a choice of eggs, bacon, bread, sausages, jam, marmalade, milk, assorted juices, and various pastries to delight the taste buds of the couple. A bottle of champagne accompanies the breakfast as a gift to the newlyweds.
Lunch picnic
Lunch picnics are usually arranged during the game drives in the Serengeti. Since couples mostly don’t get a chance to have lunch at the lodge, they carry their lunch with them and get to stop at some strategic spots to have a nice romantic picnic in the wild. This allows couples to have a different feel outside the lodge as they share this moment together.
Hot Air Ballooning
A ‘birds-eye’ view of the Serengeti plains is an enchanting experience honeymooners at the Serengeti will definitely want to cross off their bucket list. A hot air balloon ride allows couples to get a different view of the wild enjoying the fresh breeze on your skin. A hot air balloon safari is an experience of a lifetime. It is usually done in the early morning so couples can watch the magical sunrise over the Serengeti plains.
Photoshoot in the Wild
Honeymooners do not only get to enjoy the serene scenic views of the vast Serengeti plains but also get the chance to carry along with them a souvenir as a reminder of their experience which will not only live their memory but replicated through amazing pictures of their time in Africa. While some couples arrange for backdrops for the shoot, others prefer to have a raw view of the wild which will need little or no editing.
Private Romantic Dinners
Private romantic dinners in the Serengeti differs from the type that couples are accustomed to in the western setting. Here, it is an infusion of the breathtaking wilderness and bright beautiful stars overhead with a sumptuous meal that the couple will relish. A high-end selection of dinnerware and cutlery are made available with a banquet team to ensure a high-end and exclusive experience.
