With the hard part out of the way, I’ve compiled a list of the top 7 romantic destinations for you to choose from:

1. Paris.

The city of love. Europe boasts a wealth of romance filled cities to visit for those who have the time and visas to travel abroad,. What could be more romantic than a moonlit picnic at the foot of the Eiffel tower? In the evenings, the Eiffel tower lights up every hour on the hour, making for the perfect time to pop the question or just cuddle close with your lover.

2. Florence.

This small Italian town has a uniquely magical feel about it. In spite of its size, there is much to do ranging from visiting museums and churches to shopping to just watching the world go by from a tiny cafe, glass of wine in hand. Of course if there is one thing you HAVE to experience it is the cuisine. Pasta, pizza, cannoli and then some, you need to experience them all and if you are brave, try to share. Now is the perfect time to visit because the weather is great and there are likely to be less tourists, giving you more of the city to yourselves.

3. Prague.

Known as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. With all of the historic buildings still intact after the war, there is so much to do and see. Charles Bridge is gorgeous at sunset because you can get a clear view of the water and the cityscape painted in gorgeous dusk colours before heading out for a candle lit dinner.

4. Victoria Falls.

This bucket list destination is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the world. So if getting a visa is too much but you still want to use your passport then Zimbabwe is just a stone’s throw away and with our special packages, you can make it a quick weekend getaway to The Kingdom Hotel starting from just R7076 per person sharing.

A unique paradise filled with pristine beaches and wonderful culture, Zanzibar is an archipelago that can be found off the coasts of Tanzania. The perfect coastline is an ideal spot to rekindle romance. This tropical African paradise is only an approximately 3 and a half hour flight away which poses the question of why you haven’t already booked your tickets?

6. Stellenbosch.

Cape Town is a stunning city, especially with the spectacular views from and of Table Mountain but if you are looking to start the wine route then you may want to visit Stellenbosch. There is nothing like a wine tour to get those loving feelings going and in Stellenbosch, wine tastings and tours are a plenty. This beautiful old town offers stunning hilly views and great summer weather, perfect to get your drink on. Just make sure that you use Uber once your drinking begins.
