What kind of honeymoon suits you?
Before deciding, think about the kind of experience you want to have. Do you prefer beaches and relaxation with long days in the sun? Vibrant cities, culture and fine cuisine? Nature, adventure and unique landscapes? Or a trip that mixes it all up? The answer will guide you to the honeymoon destinations best suited to your profile as a couple.
Honeymoon destinations for those who dream of the beach
Maldives
Crystal clear waters, bungalows over the sea and a rhythm designed to completely disconnect you from the world. It's the ideal destination for those who want a honeymoon focused on absolute relaxation and intimate moments for two, far away from everything.
Caribbean
An archipelago of islands with paradisiacal beaches, a constant tropical climate and resorts designed for couples. Expect dinners on the sand, boat trips at sunset and perfect days to relax.
Zanzibar
Combines exotic white sand beaches with a rich cultural heritage, spices, history and Swahili architecture. Perfect for those who want something different without giving up the romantic seaside atmosphere.
Honeymoon destinations with cities and culture
Italy
From Rome to Florence, Venice or the Amalfi Coast, Italy combines ancient history, sublime cuisine and naturally romantic settings. Every corner looks like it's straight out of a postcard.
France
Paris retains its classic status, but Provence with its lavender fields or the Côte d'Azur offer a quieter and equally memorable honeymoon.
Japan
A growing choice for couples looking for a contrast between ancient tradition and futuristic modernity. Vibrant cities like Kyoto and Tokyo coexist with serene landscapes and private onsen.
Honeymoon destinations for nature lovers
Costa Rica
Tropical jungles, wild beaches, active volcanoes and lodges immersed in nature. Ideal for adventurous couples who want to explore zip-lines, wildlife watching and remote beaches.
New Zealand
Otherworldly landscapes, scenic roads and constant contact with nature. A honeymoon on the move, perfect for those who love road trips and outdoor sports.
South Africa
Combines thrilling safaris in the Kruger Reserve, the Cape Winelands, coastal cities like Cape Town and the Garden Route. Nature in its purest state with touches of luxury.
How do you choose between so many honeymoon destinations?
First define the overall budget for the trip and the duration available. Assess the desired level of comfort and tolerance for travel. Think about the balance between rest and activities. The most exotic destination is not always the most memorable, the important thing is that the trip makes sense for the couple and creates authentic memories.
