Far East
Calling all foodies, we’ve found you the perfect holiday destination. The Far East provides a flavoursome experience for couples that love their food, with distinctive delicacies and local dishes across every border. Think spicy chilli crab in Singapore, bowls of steaming pho in Vietnam and the traditional Pad Thai stir-fry in Thailand. If you’re still unconvinced, remember that the Far East is home to some of the most breathtaking beaches in the world.
Indian Ocean
Experience the ultimate romantic getaway in the paradisal settings of the Indian Ocean. World-famous beach destinations such as the Maldives and Mauritius meet cultural wonders like those of Sri Lanka, meaning you’re soaking up the sun one moment, and roaming temples and tea plantations the next.
Things to do
Cycle the Golden Gate Bridge
Renting bikes and cycling across the iconic Golden Gate Bridge is one of the most adventurous experiences you can have together in San Francisco. With spectacular views along the entire route, it’s a great opportunity to see one of the world’s most popular landmarks ‘up, close and personal’ and take a photo while you are there. Pick up a bike at Fisherman’s Wharf and set off on your scenic route.
Learn to cook the perfect Thai Green Curry in Koh Samui
Why not leave Thailand with a new skill by learning to cook at one of Koh Samui’s top cookery schools? Chefs from around the world will happily teach you and your special someone the art of making the perfect Thai Green Curry and get you both trying a variety of new tastes and textures all in an afternoon. Ideal for when you return home and want to surprise your dinner party guests!
Enjoy a private sunset cruise
What could be more romantic than a private cruise on the South Pacific to watch the sunset – in Tahiti, Bora Bora, or the Cook Islands? Sail along the coast with a loved one in a private catamaran, while enjoying a selection of nibbles and cocktails. Relax and watch the everchanging colours of the night sky. Sail through the sunset or ask your captain to anchor somewhere picturesque for that special moment – cameras at the ready. The crew will make the experience extra special with tales of the island and its fascinating history and natural highlights.
Take a hot air balloon flight
Take a magical hot air balloon flight over some of the most magical sights in the world. Myanmar is a beautiful, untouched country with temples rising from the mist. Step back in time to explore this magical destination. Discover more from up high in a sunset balloon ride over Bagan to see the stunning landscapes and pagodas strewn beneath. Alternatively, choose the Masai Mara in Kenya, for the ultimate hot air balloon experience and the chance to spot the Big 5 from up high. Once on ground, you can continue your experience with a lavish breakfast, served out in the bush.
Watch the sun rise or set at the Taj Mahal
Take a trip of a lifetime to see one of the most breathtaking landmarks ever built, the Taj Mahal. Visit at dawn or dusk to see this magical masterpiece turn a soft shade of pink, as if from a mirage, as you take a romantic wander hand-in-hand around its reflective grounds. Built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his third wife, you cannot help but feel spellbound by its beauty.
Feel the sand between your toes in Zanzibar
Relax on some of Africa’s most exclusive and remote beaches, on one of the fifty picture-perfect islands in the Zanzibar archipelago. With powdery white sands and shaded by luscious palm trees, you can enjoy a refreshing cocktail or two together on your own beach or take a private snorkelling lesson in the sparkling, turquoise waters, before a candlelit evening meal.
