9 romantic African destinations for you two πŸ’•

This month blog published on Valentine’s day can only be about romance. I cannot imagine a more romantic place than Africa to be shared and experienced with your love one.  Just google 'romantic African safaris' and a long list of itineraries will be displayed before your eyes. The truth is that any African safaris can be romantic, it is a matter of choosing the right lodges, experiences and make sure you have privacy, all of which can be organised by your favourite personal travel agent: me! 

Whether it is a romantic holiday, a proposal, your wedding or honeymoon, you are sure to create some the most magical memories of your couple life.

I feel that the best way to show what you could be experiencing is to let you imagine the two of you in those breathtaking lodges and places that I selected, soaking up the beauty that nature puts on show, just for you two πŸ’–.

9 questions to ask yourself before planning a safari

  Thinking of going on an African safari?

What destinations can I go to based on Covid-19 vaccination requirements? Some countries like Kenya require a proof of full cover course of vaccination, others currently don’t.

An African safari can be tiring especially when it goes over 4 days and it is sometimes a good idea to unwind on white sand beaches afterwards before heading back home. What level of luxury do I want for my lodges?

Like all travel agents, I am spending most of my time helping clients to rebook or obtain a refund for their recent and upcoming holidays. I am very much hoping that all departures to safari destinations this summer will be possible, and when it comes to new bookings, I would suggest to look at departures from September o...
