You can take a cruise down Zambezi River, join a guided tour of the Falls and dine at the Batoka Gorge overlooking the waterfall.
Combining nature with the cosmopolitan energy of Cape Town and the fine wines of Franschhoek ticks all the boxes, and makes South Africa one of the best honeymoon destinations.
Sadly, the crime rates are very high. You shouldn’t wander around at night, nor should you wear clothes that signal wealth (leave the Rolex at home). It’s advisable to ask for cabs at your hotel and avoid no-go areas.
Peak season runs from December to February when it’s hottest. The most popular months for food and wine tours are June To August.
