Newlyweds JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE and JESSICA BIEL spent their honeymoon in Tanzania after exchanging vows in southern Italy last month (Oct12).

The Hollywood couple wed at the Borgo Egnaza resort on 19 October (12) and the pair jetted off to the African coast two days later to begin a romantic vacation.

During their honeymoon, Timberlake and Biel explored the local wildlife on a safari through the Singita Grumeti, a private reserve in Serengeti Park, and enjoyed a hot air balloon ride.

Biel is no stranger to Tanzania - she successfully climbed to the peak of Mount Kilimanjaro during a charity trek in 2010 with fellow actors Emile Hirsch and Isabel Lucas, and rapper Lupe Fiasco.
