Where are the most popular honeymoon destinations?
The Maldives, Mauritius, Bali, the Caribbean and Thailand are favourites for long-haul, while Italy, Greece and Santorini are popular closer to home.
When should we book our honeymoon?
Ideally as soon as your wedding date is set, often nine to twelve months ahead, so you get the best choice of rooms and flights.
Can a travel agent add honeymoon extras?
Yes. Consultants can ask hotels about honeymoon perks such as room upgrades, champagne or special dinners, and arrange surprises for you.
Can we add a honeymoon to our wedding gift list?
Many couples ask guests to contribute towards their honeymoon. Your consultant can explain the options available.
What is the best time of year for a Maldives honeymoon?
November to April is generally drier and sunnier, but a consultant can advise on value and weather for your chosen dates.
Can you plan a surprise romantic break?
Yes. Share the budget and what your partner enjoys, and your consultant will put together a trip and keep it secret.
Are adults-only hotels a good choice?
Adults-only hotels offer a quieter, more relaxed atmosphere that many couples prefer, especially for honeymoons and anniversaries.
Can we combine a safari with a beach honeymoon?
Yes. Safari and beach combinations, such as Kenya with Zanzibar or South Africa with Mauritius, are very popular and can be planned as one trip.
Do we need our married name on our passports?
Your tickets must match the name on your passport. If you travel straight after the wedding, book in the name currently on your passport.
Can you organise anniversary or birthday trips?
Absolutely. Special occasion trips are planned in the same way, with extras arranged to make the celebration memorable.
