A few really romantic honeymoon destinations in India

All set to tie the knot in a couple of months? Wondering where to head out for your honeymoon in India?

It is never too early to start planning for your honeymoon. The ideal time to start booking the tickets and making the hotel reservations would be around 3-4 months before the wedding if you are planning to leave for a honeymoon right after your marriage ceremony. You can also plan your honeymoon, a couple of months after the wedding when the entire situation has settled down. Whatever you decide, you need to keep a venue in mind and plan accordingly.

There are actually a lot of romantic places in India, which are perfect for honeymooning. You just need to know the right season to visit the place!

Let’s check out some of the very romantic honeymoon destinations in India:

  1. Agra: How can you miss out the city with the monument of love when you are on your honeymoon? Agra, the home of the Taj Mahal, truly makes one of the best honeymoon destinations in India. In fact, to make the trip all the more romantic, you should try out the night tour of the Taj Mahal. It is really a wonderful sight to see this architectural wonder in the light of the moon. It is best if you plan your trip in such a way so that you can go for a night trip of the Taj on a full moon night, ideally during the month of October. There is no dearth of places to put up in Agra, but if you do go during the peak season, make sure that you book your tickets beforehand.

However, most of the beachside shacks remain closed during this time of the year.

 

  1. Pondicherry: If you want to visit a beachside in South India for your honeymoon, this is the best place to go to! This city was once under the French when the rest of the country was reeling under the British. The various French-styled houses’ streets bear testimony to this fact. The food is simply marvellous out here, and so is the beach. There are a lot of hotels that line the entire expanse of the beach, and it is best if you book a room there. Do not forget to visit the Aurobindo Ashram as well as Auroville, which are just a few kilometres away from the main city area.

  1. Alleppey: Another great honeymoon destination in South India is Alleppey in Kerala. This place is known for its backwater. This is actually the perfect place to enjoy a relaxed time on a houseboat on the backwaters.
