Blessed with its perfect climate, myriad of scenic landscapes, and known for its laid-back, fun-loving spirit, California is a sure-fire winner for the trip of your lifetime.
The best thing about this state is you can pretty much see every landscape and enjoy every experience you could possibly desire from a luxurious honeymoon. From All-American road trips zig-zagging your way through the state to relaxing on beaches cocktails in hand, there is something to entice all.
The Big Sur road trip is a must for adventurous honeymooners. Meander your way along coastal roads from San Francisco to LA, passing wild rugged scenery and sparsely populated beaches. Cruise along at your own pace stopping off at one of the hundreds of viewpoints to explore by foot and take in the stunning panoramic views. Arriving in LA, enjoy everything from sunset strolls along the beaches to morning yoga by the ocean.
You can't get more romantic than a few days wine tasting in the beautiful Napa Valley, or sister Sonoma Valley. Stroll through the valleys of vineyards sipping your way through a few of the many magnificent wineries. After a stint in the wine region, burn off the excess in the stunning Yosemite National Park.
An abundance of romantic hotels make this state perfect for honeymoon territory and our team are on hand to help you find the perfect hotels to relax in between adventures.
