Italy is one of the most popular honeymoon destinations in Europe. This incredible country is full of fascinating history, incredible food, beautiful artwork and breathtaking scenery, making it ideal for newlyweds.

Romance

Italy has long been hailed as a romantic country – Italian is even considered one of the Romance languages. There are many experiences which are unique to Italy which dial up the romance such as gondola rides in Venice and sunset strolls in Tuscany.

Many of these moments are picture-worthy, once-in-a-lifetime memories so make sure you capture as many images as you can without taking yourself away from the moment.

Culture & history

There are few places in the world with as much well-preserved history as Italy. From the Colosseum in Rome to the eerily quiet remains of Pompeii, there is something to capture the imagination of every traveller.

Elevate your honeymoon in Italy with a guided tour, where you and your partner can discover the country’s most delightful hidden destinations together. Let the experts handle the details, so you can focus on creating memories.

Food & wine

Italian cuisine is popular across the globe, so why not have an authentic culinary experience in the homeland of pasta?

Take part in some local pasta-making classes and wine tastings to discover the true flavour of the region.

One of the most romantic things as newlyweds is sharing a romantic meal in a quiet Italian bistro and you will be spoiled for choice wherever you go in Italy. Just remember to head away from tourist hotspots and venture into the areas in the suburbs for the most authentic meals.

Variety

Italy is a country of variety. You can choose between bustling, vibrant cities and quiet, scenic towns in the countryside. Don’t forget to consider the picturesque coast towns and mountain escapes too!

If you have the time, you could always combine several stopping points as you travel around, allowing you to experience all the different atmospheres Italy conjures up.

Luxury & indulgence

Honeymoons should be a luxurious and indulgent experience. Make sure you plan well in advance so that you can budget for all the things you want to do.

If you opt to stay in a hotel, choose one that has a higher star rating and lots of extras to take advantage of. Book experiences such as a couples massage. This will be even more romantic if there is an incredible view to soak in whilst your body relaxes.

For honeymooners who are planning to travel around the country, you could spend one night in high-end accommodation with an exclusive butler service to cater to your every whim. After the stress of wedding planning, this is exactly what you’ll need to begin married life.

Heading down to Wildwood this spring or summer? Enjoy outdoor wall murals and/or street art? If so, you’ll want to check out The Living Postcard wall mural in North Wildwood, New Jersey. You’ll find it painted on the back side of the public restroom building located on beach along JFK BLVD in North Wildwood. It’s the only little building with colorful wall murals painted on all 4 sides of it….so you can’t miss it.

You can use your smartphone while you’re there to scan the code to learn all about it. The little wooden postcards attached to the painted mural contain the names & info of local businesses in Wildwood. We saw the names of familiar pizza shops, Irish pubs, candy stores and other businesses as well as attractions. It’s starting to look really “weathered” so I hope they come by soon to help preserve it.

The Wildwoods have hundreds of different wall murals, statues, memorials and street art pieces all around the island. If you enjoy this type of art…you’ll love visiting there!
