Catie travelled with Far & Wild to South Africa to enjoy a Kruger safari on her honeymoon with new husband Sion in February 2019. They enjoyed 3 nights at Little Garonga as part of their honeymoon.
One of our most popular places to visit on honeymoon is South Africa. Take a read of this review to see why!
Fantastic!
We came home yesterday!! Had an absolutely fantastic honeymoon! Little Garonga was very good, thanks so much for booking. All the transfers, flights etc were perfect and it all ran super smoothly so thank you!
Exclusivity
The accommodation was lovely, was nice being in such a small camp. There were only two rooms booked for the first two days; us and another couple on honeymoon who we got on really well with. They were in the larger Hambledon Suite with a private pool, so during the day it felt like we had the entire camp to ourselves which was amazing. Also made use of the massage and bush bath which were amazing experiences.
Garonga Safari
The game drives were the best part and we saw loads of animals; all the big 5 except leopards. The drivers were absolutely amazing and it was nice having such a small group (only 4 of us most of the time). All the staff were really nice, couldn't do enough for us and food and drink were in abundance!!
In Sickness & In Health...
Unfortunately, I had sickness on the last day so was in bed all day and missed both safaris that day, plus the one the following day. So, the last few days were a bit spoilt, but the first two were fab!
Had a great time overall, despite missing half the safari drives!!
