Do these honeymoon packages include flights?

Flight inclusion depends on the package. The Maldives, Seychelles, Mauritius and UK packages include return economy airfare. The two Greece tours and the two Zanzibar resorts are land-only — the resort or tour, transfers and any meal plan are included, but international flights are arranged separately. On the land-only trips the team can quote and book flights, including any Maldives or Seychelles transfer, alongside the package so the whole honeymoon is organised in one place.

What's included in a Travelwings honeymoon package?

Inclusions vary by resort, but most romantic and honeymoon packages cover a consistent core:

✅ Resort, hotel or tour accommodation for the nights shown

✅ Daily breakfast, with half-board, full-board or all-inclusive plans on several island resorts

✅ Airport, speedboat or seaplane transfers as the destination requires

✅ Return economy airfare on the flights-included packages above

✅ Meet-and-greet and on-trip assistance

❌ International flights on the land-only Greece and Zanzibar packages

❌ Visa fees, unless the package states assistance is included

❌ Lunches and dinners where only breakfast is specified

❌ Honeymoon extras, spa treatments and personal expenses unless stated

The exact inclusions and exclusions are listed on each package, so check the detail before booking — and tell the team it is a honeymoon, as some resorts offer complimentary touches for couples.

Do South African travellers need a visa for these honeymoon destinations?

Entry rules depend on the destination and your nationality. South African passport holders may enter the Maldives, Seychelles and Mauritius visa-free or with a visa on arrival, while Greece (within the Schengen area), the UK and Zanzibar (Tanzania) each have their own rules. If keeping entry as simple as possible matters to you, our visa-free and visa-on-arrival destinations from South Africa gather the destinations that may ask least of a South African passport. As always, confirm the current requirements before you travel.

When is the best time for a honeymoon from South Africa?

The ideal months differ by destination. The Maldives is at its best from about November to April, while the Seychelles, Mauritius and Zanzibar are warm year-round with drier, sunnier windows. Greece is most beautiful from late spring to early autumn, and the UK is mildest in summer. Because every package is privately arranged, you can travel on the dates that suit your wedding, and the team will flag any peak-season surcharges before you book.

Which of these honeymoons are the most luxurious?

If you want to step up to the top tier, the flagship island resorts lead the way — Grand Park Kodhipparu and the Hard Rock in the Maldives, and Story Seychelles among the five-star island stays. For travellers who want that level across an entire trip, our five-star luxury escapes from South Africa bring together Travelwings' most indulgent hotels and experiences, and any honeymoon can be upgraded to match.
