Featured trips for two
We've gathered some of our most suited itineraries for the adventurous couples!
Pick destinations that suit couples, not crowds
Some places are great destinations, but they’re busy, noisy, and set up for families or big tour groups. As a couple, that can get old fast.
Destinations with a strong focus on nature, long distances, or travel by car tend to work better. You move around more, spend less time in crowded hotspots, and end your days somewhere calm. It’s less about seeing everything and more about actually enjoying where you are, together.

Safari, trekking and tropical aventures
Our advice? Don't get too caught up in ticking off destinations. The trips you remember most are usually the ones here you experinces omething new, and somtimes unexpected. That might be spotting wildlife at sunrise, learning to dive, tackling a hike together or trying something completely outside your comfort zone. Those are the stories that tend to stick with you, because they're shared and because they feel different from everyday life!

For LGBTQ couples: travel openly, but travel aware
Many destinations are safe and welcoming for LGBTQ travelers, while others are more conservative. In some places, you may need to be more discreet, adjust how openly you show affection, or rethink expectations around hotels and public spaces.
That doesn’t mean these destinations are off-limits. In fact, some of them offer incredible nature, unique stays, and genuinely special experiences for couples as long as you travel with a bit of awareness. Being flexible about how you travel often opens up far more options than ruling places out completely.
With the right advice, you can choose destinations and experiences where you feel comfortable, respected, and free to enjoy your time togethe. Whether that’s somewhere openly LGBTQ-friendly or somewhere that simply requires a more low-key approach.

If you're heading to Australia or New Zealand, the summer months from December to February are popular for road trips, beach time and outdoor activities. For South Africa, the dry season between May and September is often preferred for safari, while the summer months are great for exploring the Cape region.
In Southeast Asia, destinations like Thailand and Vietnam are generally most popular between November and April, when rainfall is lower and temperatures are more comfortable. Indonesia, including Bali, is often best visited during the dry season from around April to October. Ask us and we'll guide you to the rigth destination!
