Couples have been going on honeymoons to foreign locations since the early 19th century (that we know of)! Whether it’s your first honeymoon, a second honeymoon, or even a babymoon, our destinations are all wonderful places for couples to experience together.
We understand that when it comes to planning your honeymoon, you have a world of options. Literally. Tenon Tours is here to help you find or even create tailor-made trips to fit your ideas and wishes. After all, this is your trip, it should be done your way. Below are our 10 reasons to plan your honeymoon with us:
1. Romantic History & legends
From the glow of the London lights to the rushing waterfalls in Iceland there are numerous romantic sights that you will want to experience with your loved one. We even wrote a blog on the Most Romantic Places to Stay in Ireland! The term ‘Honeymoon’ did originate from Ireland after all… Wait, what?
Legends says, for one month after marrying, the couple would drink mead also known as honey wine. One moon of honey equals honey moon. Not so romantically, they hoped to procreate in that one month’s time so that their family couldn’t tear them apart!
