Honeymoon vacations 2024 & 2025

We don’t put any badge on honeymoons other than they should be as individual as the two of you. Tailor-made luxury at one of our hand-picked beach resorts might be just what you've been dreaming of. But if you want to mix time away from it all with a dash of adventure, you can tailor your honeymoon to include a couple of days exploring before your beach stay, on safari, picking up the pace in a city or visiting your destination's cultural heirlooms. And if lounging around just isn't your thing, how about wine tasting in South Africa or trekking in Nepal's Roof of the World?

Our specialists are the common thread through all our honeymoons, making sure everything's just right, down to the last little detail.
