3. Go on a Honeymoon Cruise

Cruises combine luxury and exploration like no other form of travel can. Cruising provides an incredible opportunity to visit multiple bucket-list destinations and world-class historic sites in one trip; on a Mediterranean cruise for instance, you could walk through Athens’ Acropolis before playing out your Game of Thrones fantasies exploring old town Dubrovnik the next day.

Cruise lines make it easy to find activities that will suit both of you, from full-service spas and celebrity chef restaurants to Broadway-worthy shows, lounges with DJ music playing 24/7 and land excursions; everything can be found under one roof on a cruise.

If you prefer not to fight the buffet lines for breakfast and lunch, room service is usually available for a nominal fee on most cruise lines. And for the truly luxurious traveler there are suite cabins with balconies or even private hot tubs!

No romance beats gazing upon the night skies while cuddling close to your beloved. Cruise lines recognize this, which is why many offer romantic glamping and stargazing experiences on certain itineraries – for instance Celebrity’s 10-night Papeete and Islands of French Polynesia itinerary offers couples glamping dinner followed by naturalist-guided stargazing under an igloo deckside on deck!
