Choosing a honeymoon destination involves
satisfying two people. Narrow down the
options that appeal to both of you.
• Adventure
• beach/resort
• Camping/hiking
• Cruising
• Safari
• Summer sports (golf/tennis)
• Urban/Sightseeing
• Winter sports (skiing, skating)
Budget
You may dream of Paris, Rome and London
but your budget may point closer to home.
If you extend yourself financially, the fun will
soon evaporate and the trip will become all
about saving a few dollars to just get by.
Time
How much time can you allow for a
honeymoon? Don’t try to cram the events
that need a week to properly enjoy into
a weekend. Set aside hours that are not
programmed but are just for relaxing and
doing nothing except enjoying the moment.
These will be the hours you most cherish!
Travel light
Experienced travellers can go around the
world with one carry-on. Don’t over-pack.
Take clothes that do double-duty. (A beach
coverup teamed with pants becomes an
evening outfit.) Take clothes that can be
laundered or hand-washed. Zero in on a
simple wardrobe colour scheme so all of
your separates are easy to coordinate.
