When I was planning my honeymoon, I knew I wanted something that felt adventurous but still deeply romantic. If you’re dreaming of that perfect mix, I think you’ll fall in love with these Central and South American honeymoon spots. You’ll find lush landscapes, exotic charm, and experiences you’ll both remember forever.
Highlights:
- Relax like I did in Costa Rica—either in an overwater bungalow or a cozy jungle lodge. You can soak in natural hot springs or take rainforest hikes that I still think about.
- Wander the charming colonial streets of Cartagena, Colombia. I recommend booking a sunset sail—I loved watching the sky turn gold over the Caribbean Sea with a glass of wine in hand.
- Explore Patagonia if you’re feeling bold. Whether you head to Chile or Argentina, glacier treks and mountain lodges create an incredible sense of adventure. I’ve done it, and it’s just as magical as it sounds.
- Sip your way through Mendoza, Argentina. I went on a romantic vineyard tour and couldn’t get enough of the wine, the views, and the long, relaxed lunches under the sun. You’ll love the pace here.
- Discover the culture of Peru—it stole my heart. From vibrant markets in Lima to the awe of Machu Picchu, I found something meaningful around every corner. I think you will too.
