Traveling makes you more understanding and open to new ideas. It also offers you the opportunity to unearth unique experiences. And couples who explore new places together are most likely to keep the romance alive in their relationship. If you are a couple who has just started dating, travel together to places where you can get to know more about each other and make the bud of love bloom in your relationship. Next time, you can travel to a picturesque, remote location to propose to your partner, making it memorable for both of you. And, before the big date, look for the best vacation spots for couples so that you two can spend some quiet time together before experiencing the chaos of planning a wedding. Vacation spots are also the best places for pre-wedding photoshoots. After your wedding, you can visit one of the best places for couples for your honeymoon. And, every year, you two can travel to remote destinations to celebrate your anniversaries and other important events. 

Couples married for years should also travel often, to places where they can unwind and deepen their bond. And if you are a couple who is going through a rough patch in your relationship, traveling is the best way to connect again with each other and clear all differences. When you travel together, you work as a team, navigating an unknown place and dealing with unexpected challenges. That may make you trust each other again, reignite the romantic spark, and deepen intimacy in your relationship. Whatever stage of relationship you are in, traveling with your significant other is the best way to discover each other, along with exploring stunning locations of a new place.

Travel has “long-term benefits for couples,” according to a U.S. Travel Association’s survey report. Couples who travel together are more likely to have healthier and happier relationship than those who do not, the survey report notes. Respondents of this survey say that traveling makes them more satisfied in their relationships. When they travel together, they get to spend more quality time with each other, which allows them to enjoy more romance and better sex life. Also, during their travel, they learn to communicate more and better with their partners. It is because they are dependent on each other and have no one else to talk to. And, it is no secret that communication is the key to a long-lasting relationship.

What are the best vacation spots for couples? The best destination is where both of you can have fun. It should also offer plenty of opportunities to experience new things together. Here are the 12 best places for couples to travel. You can choose one of them and then book your tickets and travel together.

If you plan to land in Uvita in September, you and your partner must attend the two-week Whale and Dolphin Festival. It celebrates the arrival of humpback whales. And, not only them, you can also see dolphins during the festival. And if you two love sports, you can take part in cycling and beach volleyball.

If you plan to travel to Costa Rica in February, you must attend the Envision Festival, which is held inside a jungle. The electrifying atmosphere of the festival will enrapture you and encourage you two to discover your bohemian spirits. You can also join others and dance under the canopy, meditate and express yourself in myriad ways. The festival may also make you trust each other more.

Tanzania’s northern region has the most celebrated safari trail in Africa – the well-established Northern Circuit safari. It is an ideal itinerary for couples who want to immerse themselves in a natural world, where the most rare and endangered wildlife species dwell. National parks, conservation areas, and game reserves are the highlights of this safari circuit. And Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire National Park, and Lake Manyara National Park are the star attractions of this region, not only just Tanzania.    

The iconic Serengeti National Park hosts one of the most spectacular wildlife events in the world. It is the Great Migration. Every July and August, millions of wildebeests, followed by zebras and antelopes, make the trek from this park to Masai Mara in Kenya to feed on the lush green grass. And, later in October and November, these animals take a U-turn to return to Serengeti. The park is also home to Africa’s Big Five: Lions, Black rhinos, leopards, buffaloes, and elephants. You two can get your fill of wildlife here.  

And there cannot be anything more romantic than floating through the air on a hot air balloon safari in Serengeti. From above, you will get mesmerized by the wild beauty of the diverse plains below. And, both of you can also share some of your wild secrets with each other in the open sky.

The long, thin Tarangire National Park runs along the Tarangire River. Dotted with scenic baobab trees, the park is a wonderful birding destination. And its low-lying, rolling hills, interspersed by swamps, make it the perfect natural habitat for animals. In the dry season especially, this park is teeming with animals, as then, the river remains the only water source in the region. You can observe herds of elephants, zebras, lions, gazelles, hartebeest, buffaloes and other wild animals from a close quarter.

Ngorongoro Crater, sitting inside the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, is one of the highly visited attractions in Africa. Often called the “Garden of Eden” because of its scintillating beauty, this crater is a geological marvel – the world’s largest inactive, unbroken, and unfilled volcanic caldera. Here, you two will find it difficult to decide whether to gawp at the dazzling scenery or focus your attention on the majestic lions, elephants, giraffes, black rhinos, and leopards lazing around.  

And in the Northern Safari Circuit, Lake Manyara National Park is another spot that offers the opportunity to unearth unique experiences. More than 400 species of birds inhabit this remarkably striking national park. And its soda ash lake acts as a magnet for pink flamingos, drawing thousands of them toward it. Lake Manyara National Park is also famous for its tree-climbing lions, and herds and herds of African elephants can also be seen in plain sight.         

At every turn on this safari trail, a wild surprise waits for you. And there is no limit to the number of activities you can do as a couple – watch the sunset and sunrise, climb hills, go bird watching, see wild animals chasing their prey or yawning, meet the Masai tribe, or just stroll around.   

‘Northern Circuit’ safari is for those couples who are wild about wildlife adventures.

Italy’s most romantic city Venice, spread over 118 small islands, is a UNESCO World Heritage property. Famous for its architectural masterpieces, winding canals, and cozy bridges, the city has plenty of incredible sights to behold. And you will see the works of some of the most influential Renaissance artists across the city, including Giovanni, Giorgione, Tiziano, Tintoretto, and Paolo Veronese.   

The city feels like a live painting, picturesque and exuding a laidback feeling. And, for couples, it has an uncountable number of picture-perfect spots to romance and become intimate.

Molokai is a Friendly Isle, often cited as the “most Hawaiian” of the islands. It is the place to visit if you two want to take a break from your chaotic and busy lives in the city. Molokai is almost untouched from the brush of commercialization, as there is a strong anti-development sentiment in the area. About half of Molokai’s population claim to have Native Hawaiian ancestry. And you can feel the Aloha spirit here. Natives are friendly and welcoming. 

Kalaupapa National Historical Park is one of the most talked-about places on Molokai. Today, it is a place of preservation and education, but once upon a time, it served as the quarantine site for people suffering from Hansen’s disease, or leprosy. You will have to ride mules to visit this park. And you will be riding down 1,700 feet of high sea cliffs.

Along with learning about the leper colony and visiting sites of historical importance, you can also have your lunch at a scenic place, which overlooks the sea cliffs and waterfalls.

Papohaku Beach Park, the longest white sand beach in Hawaii, is another spot to explore as a couple in Molokai. It is rarely crowded, except during the annual Hula festival. You can sit on the sand here and gawp at the breathtaking sight in front of you, in complete silence. And if you love water sports, you can go swimming, snorkeling or diving. Sunbathing is the best option for you if you just want to laze around and talk. Every year in the spring, the Hula festival is held in Papohaku Beach Park.

The park is also home to the 18th-century military ruins – when English and the French were battling each other. And if you want to get a clear view of the ocean and Rodney Bay, hike up to the cannons of Fort Rodney. After that, you can relax on one of the two beaches located inside the park and then have lunch at a restaurant. Pigeon Island National Park also hosts the annual St. Lucia Jazz & Arts Festival every May.

Travel Guide for Couples

One of the best parts of being in a relationship is: you do not have to look for a travel companion. You have your partner as your travel buddy. And if you both are travel enthusiasts, there cannot be anything more perfect than that. And the world is dotted with vacation spots for couples. So an unlimited number of options are available for you. But, you have to be choosy when deciding on a destination. It is because you are not traveling solo. You have to take into consideration your partner’s interests and what he or she loves to do. If you fail to do that, you might have to change your status to “single” after returning from one of the best places for couples to travel. You must plan a trip that you both can enjoy. Here are some tips that you need to follow to have the most memorable travel experience of your lives.   

Ask Your Partner

Once you are on the same page that you both want to travel in order to explore new destinations, discover new things about each other, and to strengthen the bond, the next step is deciding the destination. And, often, one half of the couple ends up doing all the planning and choosing without asking the other half where he or she would like to go. This solo decision-making can cause a lot of friction in your relationship. If you want to avoid ugly arguments and silent treatment, ask your partner about the destinations he or she wants to visit.          

Read Travel Magazines, Travelogues

You both may have a list of your dream destinations. But, it is unlikely that you will know everything about them. So you must do your research before deciding to visit a place. Read a lot of travel magazines, travelogues, and online articles. You can then make an informed decision. 

During your research on a place, you need to find out the popular spots for couples, its hidden gems, challenges that you two may face there, transportation, and the types of accommodations available. And, if you want to propose or celebrate a special occasion, you need to check whether you can access everything that is needed to make the moment beautiful and memorable. Also, you need to find out the best time to visit a destination, what all you need to carry, and the estimated cost of the trip. 

Choose the Destination

After your research, it is time to choose the destination. You both need to sit down and discuss why and why not you should travel to one of the vacation spots for couples. Also, when you are picking a destination, you need to consider your budget, how long you plan to stay, whether the weather of that place will suit you both, and if it offers activities that both of you can do together. Select the destination where you two can have the most romantic and memorable time of your lives. 

Book Tickets and Accommodation

Decided on the destination? Well, it is time to books your flight tickets. It is best to do it in advance so that you do not have to encounter late-minute hiccups that can spoil your and your partner’s mood. And by doing so, you also save money on your tickets. There are huge discounts available when you book tickets in advance.         

As you now know when you are going, what all places you intend to visit, and how long you plan to stay, you need to book a room in hotels and resorts, and in other couple-friendly accommodations. The accommodation you pick depends on your budget and the reason why you are traveling. For example, if you are visiting a place for your honeymoon, you need to book a honeymoon suite.

And if you two have just started dating, you should ask your partner whether he or she is comfortable staying in the same room with you. You will have book two rooms if the answer is “no.” 

Things to Pack

After booking your tickets, you need to start packing your things. First, you both needed to determine what all things you need to carry on the trip. After that, you will have to shop for a few things, and then start your packing. And you will also have to decide how many bags you two would like to carry during the trip. It is best to travel light. If you do not, you will be constantly worrying about your bags. 

Some of the things that you may need during the trip:

  • Passport/Visa
  • Insurance papers
  • Map
  • Dictionary
  • Chargers/Powerbanks
  • Notebooks and pens
  • Medicine Kit 
  • Sunscreen
  • Travel Hygiene Kit
  • Weather and activities appropriate clothes
  • Gorgeous pajamas
  • Appropriate Shoes
  • Masks and hand sanitizer 
  • A surprise gift for your partner
  • And an idea to surprise your partner     

During the Trip

When you are traveling together, do not try to be the boss and make all decisions alone. As you may be a couple with different interests, you will have to ensure that your partner does not get bored because of your activities selection. You must have a talk with him or her and then choose the activities, and always do them together. Do not fight or do anything that may disappoint or embarrass your partner. Remember that you are visiting a place, far away from your home, to make beautiful memories together.  Also during the trip, always try to eat healthy and try local cuisine.               

Talk a Lot

You need to keep the conversation going during your trip. It will help your bond to become stronger. You should open up, share your secrets, your desires, likes and dislikes, and everything that may help the other person know you better. And do not pressurize your partner to do something that he or she is not comfortable doing.
