How Do You Find The Best European Honeymoon Spots?

The Old Continent retains its popularity, and even more so when we’re considering honeymoons. Europe is a truly lively place that includes a large variety of cultures, languages and unique features. Following are several locations that combine the romantic aspect with exciting surroundings.

Paris, France
This European icon has always been the favorite honeymoon spot on the globe, and rightfully so: Lively streets, monuments, tradition, lots of lively diversions and let’s not forget the outstanding cooking. This European icon is so diverse. Couples delight in guided tours on a “bateau-mouche” along the Seine, perfect at sunset, to witness the awe-inspiring construction marvels Paris is famous for.

Montmartre, a northern area of the old town, is a very authentic neighborhood where you and your partner will love to get lost in and taste the delicious food its hundreds of bistros and restaurants can provide. Night life is also very vibrant in this part of town, as we are reminded by the 1999 movie “Amelie”. Culture is everywhere, and don’t forget that the Louvre and Orsay offer a wealth of artistic works in a romantic atmosphere.

Venice, Italy
Venice is most certainly the earth’s most popular honeymoon destination: The bridges and waterways and the buildings especially, which have enjoyed extensive coverage in Hollywood movies are often enough to entice you to go for a romantic trip. There are, of course, many more ways to enjoy this Italian jewel and the whole region, especially for newlyweds.

The excellent food is one of the main attractions, especially in awe-inspiring places like the Piazza di San Marco. Cultural beauty, whether it is art or history, is ever present in romantic place, and you can either leisurely walks or a gondola tour around the city’s countless landmarks, or venture for a serious sojourn into several of the city’s exhaustive selection of art galleries. Include a tour of the markets and you and your mate will enjoy the ideal honeymoon place.

The Santorini Volcano, Greece
This island chain embodies the awe-inspiring views and cultural pull that is generally associated with Greece. The Santorini volcano, which was once thought to conceal the remains of Atlantis, is located amidst romantic Mediterranean sceneries and little Greek settlements. Opportunities for relaxation and cultural immersions alike are readily available in Santorini and make it perfect for a honeymoon.

A variety of beaches are within a reasonable distance for a walk or are stops for public transport; don’t forget to linger at least once so you don’t miss the awe-inspiring sunset on the beach or from a restaurant’s deck. Archeological sites are also very popular, not to forget the volcano’s crater, which is still active and accessible to tourists. It is the ultimate Greek experience, and potentially the most romantic place in the Mediterranean.

Prague, Czech Republic
Centrally located in the Czech Republic, Prague commonly counts as Eastern Europe’s most beautiful citiy, both for its cultural history and its energetic lifestyle. The Old Town is uncontested as the city’s most popular section of the city; it has survived many eras of changing history and is saturated with must-see places like the Old Town Square and the Old Synagogue.

Many museums (such as the National Museum and the Museum of Decorative Arts) and play houses comprise the very sought-after cultural aura the city is famous for. What also sets Prague apart is a seldom found display of old gothic and contemporary buildings, a very distinct setting that is very popular with visitors as a group and honeymooners in particular.
