Know before you go...

Best time to go on a honeymoon?

Getting there & Getting Around

International flights and airport transfers are included in most packages. We’ll help with car hire, shuttles, or drivers where needed.

Do South Africans need a visa?

Not always! Mauritius, Maldives, Thailand, and many African destinations offer visa-free or visa-on-arrival for SA passport holders. We’ll check for you.

Smart tips to make sure you have your dream honeymoon!

Planning your dream honeymoon? Here are some smart tips to help you get the most out of your honeymoon holiday package – including a few that many couples don’t think about until it’s too late:

Start planning early
Booking 6 to 12 months ahead gives you access to the best rates, flight availability, and first pick of top honeymoon destinations.
Be clear about your budget
Whether you’re after luxury honeymoon holidays or looking for cheap honeymoon destinations, our team can help you find romantic, comfortable, and great-value options.
Think about the kind of experience you want
Are you dreaming of beach bliss, a cultural adventure, scenic road trips, or a mix of it all? We’ll help you pick destinations that match your mood and travel style.
Pack smart
Light layers, comfortable shoes, sun protection, swimwear, and a good waterproof action camera are must-haves – especially in tropical honeymoon destinations.
Let us know it’s your honeymoon
We’ll notify your hotel or resort. Many offer complimentary extras like bubbly on arrival, romantic room setups, couple spa treatments, or surprise gifts.
Get travel insurance
It’s an essential part of every honeymoon vacation package – protecting you both in case of unexpected hiccups like delays, cancellations, or medical emergencies.
Don’t overbook your itinerary
Leave time for lazy mornings, spontaneous adventures, and afternoon naps. Your honeymoon should be a relaxing celebration, not a packed schedule.
Book through a trusted travel partner
Thompsons Holidays makes planning easy and stress-free. We’ll tailor your honeymoon to your needs, handle the admin, and be there if anything goes off track.
Plan a buffer day at the start and end
Allow yourselves time to settle in and recover from travel. A relaxed start and end to your trip helps everything feel smoother.
Split your valuables between your bags
If one suitcase goes missing or is delayed, you’ll still have essentials like clothes, toiletries, and travel documents.
Keep digital and paper copies of your documents
Save scanned copies of your passports, bookings, and travel insurance in a shared folder you can both access on the go.
