Adventure Honeymoons

For the ultimate post-wedding experience, embark on an adventure honeymoon and begin your life together with adrenaline-inducing activities, energetic pursuits and fast paced action.

New Zealand is widely considered the adventure capital of the world – the first ever bungy jump took place just outside Queenstown on the South Island. There are many activities on offer around Queenstown that can be enjoyed as a shared experience including hiking in summer, skiing in winter and white-water rafting. On the North Island, Lake Taupo is widely considered adrenaline central; here you can water-ski, sail or sky-dive over the mesmerising terrain.

Other international adventure honeymoon options may include following in the footsteps of the Egyptian pharaohs by exploring the Pyramids of Giza and the Temple at Karnak, gazing across the famed Serengeti on an African safari or exploring the pristine Antarctic Peninsula. Alternatively, you may prefer to cycle through the French countryside, trek the iconic paths in Nepal or take a camel safari through the Jordanian desert. Then there is always yachting around the Mediterranean Sea, checking out the legacy of the Raj in India and hot-air ballooning over Cappadocia in Turkey.

Closer to home, there are many adventure opportunities to experience in Australia. Consider donning scuba gear and admiring the incredible marine life that call the Great Barrier Reef home, hiring a four-wheel drive and driving along the Gibb River Road through the spectacular Kimberley region or hiking through beautiful forests in Tasmania.
