Choices of a lifetime: The perfect honeymoon spot

ROMANCE + ADVENTURE + SELF DRIVE + FINE DINE = GREAT FUN

REGION: Australasia

For those of you who are pondering over the reference of Australasia, here’s a quick definition. Australasia is a region of Oceania comprising Australia, New Zealand, the island of New Guinea, and neighbouring islands in the Pacific Ocean. The term was coined by Charles de Brosses and he derived it from the Latin for ‘South of Asia’ to differentiate the area from Polynesia (to the east) and Micronesia (to the northeast). Australasia sits on the Indo-Australian Plate, together with India. All set, now read ahead.

QUIT THE OLD HONEYMOONING STYLE: Gone are the days when a honeymoon was in a land of surprises. Today, the new couple comes well-researched about their honeymoon hotspot and wants to indulge in each activity they would wait a lifetime for. This new concept’s called ‘Active Honeymoon’. Self drive honeymooning holidays are gaining steady popularity, so are culinary trails where a cook-off session by the couple sounds very inviting. Defy gravity and challenge your guts by rafting, skydiving and bungey jumping in tandem as a couple, the adrenaline rush is unbeatable.

A honeymoon with amazing activities done together can further a new bond, making the couple understand what their partner truly likes to indulge in. Indians are increasingly travelling far and beyond to explore new horizons. On your honeymoon, go the smart way by planning the destination yourselves and gift an album of a lifetime of memories with ET-Travel in tow.
