Romantic does not have to mean doing nothing
Some couples want beach and spa. Some want safari, wine, hiking, boating, or a place that feels hard to repeat later. The best romantic trip is the one that fits both people going.

How I build romantic trips
I start with pace. Then I look at season, flights, room category, restaurant and experience planning, and how much activity you actually want. A great honeymoon or anniversary trip should feel special without feeling overbuilt.
