Travel Review: African Honeymoon, South Africa, Mozambique, Sabi Sands, Cape Town, Wine Tours, Whale Watching

Our overall planning and trip experience was amazing. We started out knowing that we wanted to have a honeymoon that was half active and half relaxing. Jen, from this Africa safari travel company worked with us to make our two week honeymoon exactly what we wanted. We were able to work with Jen to pick the exact hotels and activities we wanted to do all while staying on a budget that we prescribed. Perhaps one of the best parts of the planning process was that as upgrades for flights and hotels came up she notified us. We were very impressed with the professionalism of this company as they were responsive to all questions through email and were willing to set up calls whenever we felt we needed it.

The trip itself was also fantastic. We had a few setbacks with flights which were out of our travel company's control but the contacts that they gave us for our trip were able to help us and accommodate us appropriately in every instance. 

• The person who met us in the airport in Johannesburg was exceptional and was able to help us make our connection with almost no time.
• The hotel in Cape Town was fantastic. The view was exceptional and set the tone for our entire honeymoon. Additionally, the food and the service at our hotel was great as they made us delicious breakfasts and helped us coordinate extra activities we wanted to complete. 
• The tour guide who took us on our wine tour was also very experienced and took us to some of the most beautiful wineries around Cape Town. 
• Our lodge in the Sabi Sands was exceptional. The service there was outstanding and we were able to see animals that many could only hope to see in a lifetime of safaris. 
• On our flight to Mozambique one of our planes did not show up and we were able to get in touch with our contact in South Africa to help us get to a solution where we stayed in a 5-star guest house for a night. 
• Our resort in Mozambique was incredible. We flew in on a helicopter which was a great alternative to the five hour drive, which we heard from another couple was very rough. Our room, the service, and the food were all exceptional.
