Nothing screams romance more than a sunset stroll down the beach with your loved one, don’t you think? Bali and Phuket are widely known to offer some of the best island experiences in the world, so if you agree with our statement – these two destinations should be up the top of you list.

 

Although it’s tempting to spend your entire stay inside your villa, there’s a whole world to explore in Bali from the Tukad Cepung Waterfalls to the Tegalalang Rice Fields! So once you’ve conquered Bali’s best “honeymoon” attractions, then you can enjoy your pool float rental as much as your heart desires!

 

Phuket’s islands are a top destinations for honeymooners – and we can’t blame them! From Phi Phi Island’s turquoise waters to Coral Island’s spectacular underwater experience, how can you possibly say no to a paradise getaway like this?

If your loved one is a fan of elaborate declarations, a surprise getaway to Dubai and Abu Dhabi will definitely take their breath away! With Dubai’s extravagant structures and Abu Dhabi’s architectural wonders, this will be a Valentine’s date they’ll have a hard time forgetting.

 

First thing’s first – take a trip up the tallest tower in the world, the Burj Khalifa, for sights you can’t get anywhere else in the world. Afterwards, sweep them off their feet with a Desert Safari dinner complete with a camel and dune bashing experience! How’s that for a dinner date?

The easiest way to get to Abu Dhabi is by joining in on a full day tour, with a convenient accommodation pick up and drop off. Remember to have your UAE visa on hand.

Cambodia and Vietnam aren’t exactly on the top of everyone’s list when it comes to romantic destinations, but we wonder – why not?

 

Siem Reap is home to a magnificent set of century-old ruins that instantly take you back in time. The temples of Angkor are a magical thing to behold – and fortunately for you, Klook’s got a sunrise tour that will make your experience unforgettable. After hours of temple running, treat yourselves to a couples massage at Origins Spa Siem Reap to cap off your adventure!

 

From Hanoi, surprise your partner with a cruise through Halong Bay’s emerald waters and limestone islands. Apart from the stellar views, the deluxe cruise offers kayaking activities, cooking classes, and a visit to some private beaches! If that isn’t honeymoon material, we don’t know what is!

You can opt to take a bus service from Siem Reap to Hanoi, or book a flight which will take up to 2 hours.

 

If road trips and hikes are a favorite past time for you and your partner, then a trip to Oz and NZ will surely be hard to beat. Not only are these destinations blessed with the most scenic locations, but they both also happen to be a thrill seeker’s paradise!

 

Kickoff the love fest at the outskirts of Melbourne – say a roadtrip to the Great Ocean Road or a sunrise hike at the Grampians Canyons?

 

Afterwards, trade in your car rental for a harness and do a massive trust test at the Nevis Bungy in Queenstown!

You will need to book a flight from Melbourne to Queenstown, in which duration should be around 3 to 3 and a half hours. Remember to have both Australian and New Zealand visas on hand.

 

A trip to London and Paris is a no-fail combo that will have your hearts leaping out of your chests. Let’s face it – anything you do in Paris can classify as romantic, while London’s links to literary classics fill the air with undeniable romance, so a visit to these iconic cities are sure to leave a mark in your hearts forever.

 

If you get an opportunity to do a private photo shoot in London – take it! While the city is filled with stunning sights, having a photographer follow you as you enjoy afternoon tea, or take a romantic stroll through the Kensington Garden, will help immortalize some of your best memories with your partner.

 

A trip to Paris on its own is a romantic gesture, but if you want to up the ante, take your partner on a wine and champagne tour or Seine River cruise at night. But when in Paris, the most romantic thing you can do is treat your mon amour to a romantic dinner at the top of the Eiffel Tower – albeit expensive, we think it’s a small price to pay for love (especially in the City of Love)!

You can book a straight flight, or a scenic train ride from London to Paris via the Eurostar through Klook. Remember to have both UK visa and Schengen visa on hand.
