If you’re getting married soon and are in the process of booking your honeymoon, you might feel there are so many choices it’s all a bit overwhelming. Perhaps you’ve been flicking through travel sites and all you’ve come across is beach breaks with white sand and crystal waters, but it all feels a bit boring? If so, you’re not alone! In fact, more and more people are turning their sights to alternative honeymoon ideas in the search for a bit of culture, better food and exciting things to do. In this article we take a look at some alternative honeymoon ideas that are sure to tick all your boxes and make for a truly fantastic start to married life. 

A Cultural Exploration of Japan

Japan is one of the most stunning countries in the world and offers the perfect blend of majestic romance and culture for your honeymoon. We recommend booking your trip during the Cherry Blossom season so you can fully appreciate the beauty of the color of the blooms, but it’s also a stunning place to go all year round. There is so much to do depending on where you go, from Onsen’s, gaming cafes and sushi, to wild camping and luxury hotels to stay in.

A City Trip To Bangkok

If you are someone who loves the city, Bangkok is a fantastic place to go. With a rich cultural heritage, Bangkok is a city with a difference. You can have a traditional Thai massage, visit the beautiful Grand Palace and you have to make time to just wander the street markets. Here you can pick up local wares, including food, drinks and hand-made trinkets which make ideal souvenirs for those back home. We recommend booking a hotel near icon siam,  which puts you in a convenient location and means you can relax in the lap of luxury for your honeymoon. After all, if you don’t deserve a treat when you’ve just got married, when do you! 

A Snowy Alpine Escape

If you’re not so much about the snow, but instead prefer the idea of a cosy winter getaway, why not head to the mountains in the Alps? Stay in a chalet complete with a roaring fireplace and white, snowy views just beyond the windows. You can spend your days on the slopes and your evenings relaxing with a cheese fondue and hot chocolate before hitting the Apres Ski parties if that’s your thing! Be sure to book a spa treatment or two while you’re here too!
