Luxury Honeymoons

A honeymoon should feel different from any other holiday…

Not simply because the hotel is beautiful or the flight is upgraded, but because the honeymoon feels considered from beginning to end.

At Willow & Bird, we create luxury honeymoons around the two people taking them. We get to know how you like to travel, what matters most, where you’re happy to invest and the moments you want to remember long after you have returned home.

Two people. Two ideas of the perfect honeymoon.

One of you wants a beach, but the other will get bored after three days.

One of you wants restaurants, culture and somewhere to explore. The other just wants an overwater villa.

That doesn’t mean one of you has to compromise.

Some of our favourite tailor-made honeymoons combine completely different experiences - safari to beach, city to island, adventure to complete stillness.

Where could your honeymoon take you?

  • South Africa & Mozambique

    Wild beginnings. Barefoot endings.

    Start with Cape Town and the Winelands, disappear into the bush for a few days on safari, then swap game drives for empty beaches and warm Indian Ocean waters in Mozambique.

    For couples who can’t decide between adventure and doing absolutely nothing, this is one of our favourite answers: do both.

  • Japan

    For couples who want a story to tell.

    Tokyo after dark. Tiny restaurants hidden behind unmarked doors. Bullet trains, ryokans, temples and mornings that feel completely removed from home.

    A Japan honeymoon is for couples who want to come back with hundreds of stories rather than simply a suntan. Add Kyoto, the Japanese Alps or a beautiful island retreat and it becomes something completely your own.

  • Botswana & Seychelles

    Disappear twice.

    First into the extraordinary wilderness of Botswana, where tiny camps, waterways and wildlife make the rest of the world feel very far away.

    Then disappear again — this time to a beautiful Seychelles beach.

    It’s an extraordinary safari and beach honeymoon for couples who want privacy at both ends, just in completely different forms.

  • Argentina

    Wine, wilderness and very good dinners.

    Buenos Aires, Mendoza’s vineyards, Patagonia’s enormous landscapes and perhaps somewhere beautifully remote at the end.

    Argentina makes a brilliant honeymoon for couples whose idea of romance involves exceptional food, great wine and going somewhere that feels like a proper adventure.

  • Peru

    For the honeymoon with a little altitude.

    Lima’s restaurants, the Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu and some extraordinary hotels along the way.

    Peru is perfect for couples who want their honeymoon to feel like a once-in-a-lifetime journey rather than a conventional romantic escape.

    And after all that exploring? We can always find you a beach.

Frequently asked honeymoon questions

  • For long-haul honeymoons we recommend beginning the conversations around 9-12 months before travel, particularly if you have set dates or want certain hotels, premium cabins or popular safari lodges. However, we can also arrange honeymoons at much shorter notice where availability allows.

  • Absolutely. Multi-destination holidays are one of our favourite to create. We can combine different destinations including cities, cultural experiences and beaches into one seamless itinerary.

  • The team at Willow & Bird are here to deal with the logistics and work behind the scenes to ensure that your honeymoon is as stress free and relaxing as possible, as we believe your honeymoon experience begins with booking it.

    Your overall investment is shaped by the hotels, flights and experiences you choose - our role is to make sure those choices are the right ones.

    You’re not paying for the sake of using a travel consultant. You’re getting more from the holiday you choose.

  • Where available, we can request honeymoon benefits, upgrades, special experiences and thoughtful extras. These are always subject to the hotel or supplier’s availability and eligibility.
