50 Best Honeymoon Destinations 2019 – Top Places to Go for Honeymoons

The idea is that you’ll only do it once, thus your honeymoon is one of those high-stakes trips to plan. “Nowadays, with more couples marrying later in life, often after years of already living together, the honeymoon is a great time to make a shared check off of the bucket list destination trip, and do something bigger, bolder, or over a longer period of time than usual. The honeymoon is about making memories and stories to last a lifetime,” says Joan Roca, founder of the bespoke travel site the Essentialist. Roca, who has planned honeymoons to everywhere from the Seychelles (his recommended place to stay is the Raffles hotel in Praslin) to Kyoto, says his advice, while common sense, often gets overlooked in the planning: give yourselves a few days to readjust to the new time zone and remember that shared discovery is important, so try and go some place neither of you have been.

Now we break down our 50 TC approved honeymoon destinations, plus where you should stay in each place. We’ve got all types of travelers covered—from a trek across the Serengeti to private islands, one of which only allows 400 people at a time, to food and wine destinations to urban escapes.
