Do you want to go on a European honeymoon, but do not think you can afford it? Follow these money saving tips and treat yourself to a five star vacation.
Newly married couples should not have to compromise their honeymoon because of lack of money. Here are some suggestions for some very romantic destinations in Europe that do not have to cost a fortune. These destinations can be reached by low cost airlines from London such as Ryanair and Easyjet and hotels can be booked through websites that discount hotel prices such as Agoda.
It is possible to spend as little as 1100US for a week for two people and this includes flights from London and five star hotels in all destinations except in Paris where the money only stretches to a four star hotel. Make sure to book flights and hotel far in advance to get the best deals.
Venice, Italy
Venice is a beautiful city, but it can also be extremely expensive. However, cheap flights and hotels make the destination more accessible and you can just wander around enjoying the atmosphere. If you cannot afford to pay for your own taxi boat or gondola, buy a ticket and travel around on the ‘floating bus boat’ and if you do not want to spend a fortune on eating out at Marco Square, bring a picnic.
Rome, Italy
Rome is another beautiful Italian city where you can just wander around enjoying the surroundings. You can either use the underground system or walk as most ancient sites can be reached by foot. Do not forget to just relax, enjoy the Italian food or just have a coffee in one of the many cafés.
Paris, France
Paris is one of the most romantic cities any time of the year. Many of the attractions in Paris are free or moderately priced. It is easy to get around by using the Metro system.
Rhodes, Greece
Rhodes is the place to go if you prefer a nice honeymoon on the beach instead of a city break. Enjoy sandy beaches and the lovely Greek food. Rent a moped to get around the island or hop on a bus to go to one of the many beaches.
