A romantic getaway in Whistler

by Caliope Sage Posted on

Are you planning on having another night of Netflix and chilling on the couch with your other half? If you answered ‘yes’ to that, then it’s time to plan a romantic getaway that does not involve cheesy movies and unhealthy snacks. The snow-capped mountains and some dope slopes in Whistler mountains are the perfect destinations to check out!

Explore by floatplane

The best way to discover beautiful Whistler is via floatplane. This unforgettable ride is scary, exciting and memorable for sure. You can capture unparalleled views of the countless lakes and the surrounding landscapes. However, this doesn’t come cheap. You can get a 30 min flight around Whistler for around CAD 200; if you can splurge a bit more, you can enjoy an alpine lake landing with lunch.

Brandywine Falls

You must visit Brandywine Falls when you’re here. It’s located on the outskirts of the main town just 15 mins away from Whistler ski area hotels such as the luxurious Pan Pacific Whistler Mountainside. The waterfall is amazing on its own but the site is also a stunning lookout spot over the valley below. If you’re on your way to Vancouver or heading to Whistler from that way, you must stop here and take in the scenic views.

Joffre Lakes

Located just outside of Whistler, the Joffre Lakes is a sight to behold with stunning mountain peaks and glistening blue water everywhere your eye meets. This is one of the most popular hiking trails in British Colombia. The hike itself is quite rewarding with scenic views that will take your breath away but the real prize is the three lakes at the end of the main trail surrounded by a beautiful pine forest.

The River of Golden Dreams

The River of Golden Dreams sounds like the perfect honeymoon couple’s destination. You can take a romantic, relaxing kayak ride down the river with your loved one for a unique experience. You can explore the beautiful surroundings with your better half, starting from Alta Lake.

Plan your Romantic Getaway in Namibia

by CatalinaC Forbes Posted on

Have you ever imagined experiencing a romantic getaway in the wilds of Africa? Well, if you have, few destinations on the continent can match what Namibia has to offer. Here’s a closer look at how you can plan an amorous adventure in this fascinating country.

When to Visit

Before you pack up everything and head off to Africa with your partner, it’s a good idea to look up what the best timings are for visiting Namibia. Here the land is primarily covered in desert, meaning it’s hot and dry for the most part. When the rains do come down though – usually around October – they come down hard, so you might want to stick to the dry months.

Getting to Namibia

So, just how are you planning to visit Namibia? Of course, you can always fly into the country – flights from Europe for example will cost around 650 to over 1000 pounds. That being said, if you initially travel to South Africa or Botswana, you can simply rent out a car and drive to the desert.

Where to Stay

Namibia offers plenty of options when it comes to accommodations, particularly for travelling couples. Hotels in Namibia range from simple boutique options to luxurious options like the Avani Windhoek Hotel & Casino. There’s always the option to camp out in the desert too.

Planning Your Itinerary

There are a great many options when it comes to a couple’s itinerary in Namibia. Spending a night or two in the desert wilderness can be a once in a lifetime experience – so don’t pass it up. Just as well, a cruise along the Zambezi River or a safari at the Kalahari are great choices.

by Lavinia Woolf Posted on

Outdoor Excursions

Of course, Koh Samui isn’t just about beaches and resorts – if you and your partner like to explore and break a sweat, there’s plenty to do here! One of the best outdoor activities to try out is a trek to the Namuang Waterfalls.

Where to Stay

Being a resort destination, you won’t have too much trouble finding a place to stay here in Koh Samui. For starters, there’s plenty of Chaweng Beach resorts to choose from – like the Anantara Lawana Koh Samui Resort. Most of these also come with exclusives couples’ packages and deals.

Planning

It is essential that you’ve drawn up your own plan for the event before you start on any of the arrangements. Think about your theme, hotel, guest list, food, and entertainment. This will also help you make your budget. Also, consulting a wedding planner when planning your wedding in Thailand is a must.

The backdrop

Do you visualise yourself exchanging rings in the setting of a garden by the beach? Hotels like Chatrium Residence Riverside Bangkok is ideal for a wedding by the riverside. However, have a clear picture in your mind before going ahead and reserving a hotel.

Logistics

When selecting your location in Thailand, you have a wide variety of options from a wedding in the mountains to a wedding by the beach or just at the ballroom of a luxurious hotel. However, if the place is hard to get to, the cost is said to be most likely to increase by 30%.

A bit of Thai

Since your wedding is in Thailand, why not make it unique by adding a touch of Thai culture? Event facilities in Bangkok hotels offer a bit of a Thai twist to your wedding. Still, it is your option whether you’ll go along with it or not.
