An Unforgettable Honeymoon with Relish of Africa
For our honeymoon and first-ever safari, we initially considered companies with a large online presence, but choosing a small, family-owned business turned out to be one of the best decisions of our entire trip. For our first time in Tanzania, we chose Relish of Africa, and it easily became one of the most meaningful experiences of our lives.
From the moment we arrived, we felt genuinely cared for and celebrated. Every detail was thoughtfully handled, from airport pickup to our drop-off in Arusha for our Zanzibar extension. The personal touches were incredible, especially the “Just Married” sign on the spare tire and the beautiful visit to a Maasai village, which made our honeymoon feel deeply special and unforgettable.
Andrew Amos was wonderful to work with from the very beginning. He was patient, attentive, and genuinely invested in creating the perfect experience for us. After thoughtfully walking us through different options, we booked the five-day Private Luxury Safari through Tarangire, Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater, and it exceeded every dream we had imagined. Andrew and our safari guide, Meck, quickly felt like family. Long game drives were filled with laughter, Swahili lessons, and stories about Tanzania’s history and culture that made the landscapes and wildlife even more meaningful.
Andrew’s professionalism and Meck’s deep knowledge and calm patience allowed us to fully relax and be present with each other and the magic around us. Because of them, we experienced three breathtaking regions and were lucky enough to see and photograph the Big Four. While spotting a rhino would have completed the Big Five and is incredibly rare in December, we were still incredibly fortunate to encounter both leopards and cheetahs, making the experience even more extraordinary.
The accommodations, safari vehicle, and daily lunches were all beyond our expectations. Everything was luxurious, comfortable, and perfectly suited for a honeymoon adventure. If you are looking for a private, romantic, educational, and once-in-a-lifetime safari experience, we cannot recommend Relish of Africa highly enough. It will stay with you long after the journey ends.
