For many couples, a small group tour might not be the first to come to mind when it comes to planning the perfect honeymoon.

With a little exploring, you just might discover the honeymoon of a lifetime! In no particular order, here are our top ten reasons to choose an adventure honeymoon tour. Of course, if you think of reasons of your own, leave them in the comments section!

You only get to honeymoon once, so why not make it special and unique? Once the celebrations are over and married life really begins, many couples become too busy to find enough time to take another big trip. That means your honeymoon should be as memorable as possible, and while there’s nothing wrong with lazing on the beach, an adventure honeymoon tour will be an experience you’ll never forget, and one you may never have another chance to treat yourselves to.

After your honeymoon, your family and friends will want to hear all about it, and someday you may even have kids who you’ll regale with stories of your incredible honeymoon. Who wants to tell (or hear) a generic story? An adventure honeymoon tour is a safe way to take a romantic trip that will make you the envy of cocktail parties and PTA meetings for years to come.

World travelers agree: There is no better way to grow along with someone you love than by immersing yourselves in the magic and mystery of foreign cultures. Not only will you grow individually as you learn about our incredible planet and its diverse people, but by sharing these inspirational experiences, you’ll have a surefire way to tighten your bonds and leave your love stronger than ever.

Sure, there are lots of romantic resort restaurants. But exposing yourselves to true local cuisine will not only introduce you to wonderful new foods and customs, but will take you on a journey of culinary discovery that will help shape your identity as a world-wise married couple. Enjoying delicious, unique local cuisine isn’t just about food – it’s  a new experience you can add to your list, and every unique experience you share is a memory you’ll treasure forever.

With the stress of wedding planning, honeymoon planning can start to feel like a real headache. With an adventure honeymoon tour, you don’t need to worry about running around booking hotels, restaurant reservations and activities.

A reputable tour operator will also be completely clear about anything that isn’t included so you can plan ahead, erase the honeymoon stress and let them take care of everything.

A “typical” honeymoon could be an incredible romantic getaway, but other than the newlywed glow, champagne and roses, will it really be that different from any other vacation? You want your honeymoon to stand out in your minds as a journey as exciting as your love. The best way to make it truly memorable is by doing something different and making it an adventure! Active couples will especially love an adventure honeymoon, but “adventure” means something different for everyone. Whatever adventure means to you, there’s an unforgettable honeymoon just waiting to be experienced.
