A honeymoon in South Africa can be one of the most romantic and memorable experiences of a lifetime. Beautiful scenery, unbeatable game viewing, exquisite accommodation and highly personal service make Kings Camp the perfect choice for a honeymoon destination.

Take a look at just a few of the reasons we think you should book your romantic adventure to the Timbavati.

The Unmatched Wildlife

One of the highlights of a honeymoon at Kings Camp is the unmatched wildlife experiences that await. Our team of highly experienced and passionate guides bring the Timbavati to life, offering unparalleled insights into the flora and fauna of this unique ecosystem. With their expertise, you’ll have front-row seats to nature’s most thrilling scenes, from watching a pride of lions lazing in the sunshine to spotting a leopard lounging in a tree.

Located within the Timbavati Private Nature Reserve, which shares unfenced borders with the Kruger National Park, Kings Camp offers exclusive access to some of the most pristine wilderness in South Africa. This means fewer vehicles, more intimate encounters with wildlife, and the freedom to venture off the beaten path.

The Timbavati is renowned for its diverse species, including the iconic Big Five, as well as cheetahs, wild dogs, and white lions. For couples seeking an unforgettable safari adventure, Kings Camp promises close-up wildlife experiences that are as thrilling as they are exclusive.
