Traveling with your spouse is a unique and delightful experience. One of the most amazing elements of getting married is having a personal travel companion, someone you can share incredible experiences with and with who you are totally in sync.

Traveling with your partner is also a fantastic way to spend quality time with each other, as well as exploring exotic destinations and far-flung parts of the world. You’ll be able to make amazing memories together, try new things and see new sights, and maybe even learn something new about your husband or wife!

So if you’ve just tied the knot and are thinking about your vacation plans for the coming year, there are a few things to consider. It’s important to work out what sort of couple’s vacation you want, and find an adventure that suits you both. You might want to spend your entire time decompressing and relaxing on a beach, or taking on exhilarating challenges on a more adrenaline-fuelled adventure. Here are a few suggestions for the perfect travel options for newlyweds.

A European cruise

A European cruise is a superb way to combine multiple different types of vacation into one amazing trip. You’ll get gorgeous sun and crystal-clear blue waters in Greece or on a Greek Isles cruise, as well as all the culture and sophistication you can handle by visiting elegant European capitals like Rome, Vienna, Prague, and London. More active couples might enjoy a quick ski trip to the Alps, or even a desert trek on the other side of the Med in Morocco!

A Caribbean beach getaway

With golden sandy beaches fringed with palms and warm, shallow, turquoise water, there is a lot to love about a romantic Caribbean getaway. Simply doing nothing other than laying on the beach, soaking up the sun with your loved one by your side can be a pretty wonderful way to spend your time, and for this there are few better places in the world than the islands of the Caribbean. But a Caribbean getaway isn’t just about lying on a lounger with a cocktail in your hand. Each island has a unique and fascinating culture and character well worth exploring in more detail, with individual cuisines, histories, and cultural highlights. There are also loads of opportunities for more energetic activities, with plenty of hiking trails in the jungly, mountainous interiors of many Caribbean islands. 

A rugged mountain adventure

If you are the kind of couple who likes adventure and excitement, who get up at the crack of dawn to run up hills or regularly set off with rucksacks on your backs to hike-through the nearest National Park, then a mountain trek vacation might be your ideal couple’s vacation. Whether you choose to stay closer to home and hike the Rockies, or head to the Pyrenees, the Dolomites, or even the Himalayas for a guided ascent, a mountain adventure might provide everything you need!

A California road trip

If you are looking for fun and excitement without having to go too far from home, why not discover the joy of the open road with a road trip down California’s gorgeous Pacific Coastal Highway. This remarkable road twists and turns down the length of the Golden State, with the glittering ocean on one side and rugged mountains and awe-inspiring redwood forests on the other. There are a whole bunch of amazing places to stop off at and explore along the way, from the picturesque Mediterranean-style white stucco architecture of sleepy Santa Barbara to elegant sophistication and stylish party atmosphere of San Francisco.
