Planning your honeymoon can be a lot of fun—and if there was ever a time when you could use the promise of some much needed relaxation, it’s in the midst of putting together a wedding! Take a break from all the hectic activity and explore our top 5 out of the box South American honeymoon ideas.
Chile’s Lake District:
Deep blue mountain lakes, spectacular snow capped volcanoes, lush forests, year round outdoor sports and activities, and four star resorts make Chile’s Lake District one of the most pristine and beautiful getaway spots in South America. Perfect for spring and summer honeymoons, don’t miss out on Chile’s world class wine and seafood while you’re there.
Iguazo Falls:
On the Argentina/Brazil border are the Iguazo falls—a horseshoe shaped collection of 275 cascades spread over two miles of the Iguazo River. Taller (and twice as wide) as Niagara, the falls are hands down one of the most amazing sights you will ever see.
Los Roques National Park:
Los Roques Archipelago National Park in Venezuela is home to mangroves, coral reefs, and amazing sea-grass beds. If you and your honey are nature lovers, you’d be hard pressed to find a better suited honeymoon spot.
Buenos Aires:
If you’re looking for more sophistication in a honeymoon destination, consider Buenos Aires, Argentina. Chic and cosmopolitan, it’s the perfect combination of culture, nightlife, and relaxation for an urban luna de miel.
Machu Picchu:
In Peru’s Cuzco is Machu Picchu, the lost city of the Incas. While not a glamorous honeymoon destination, this historical and natural wonder is an amazing site. And what better way to get close to your new husband than by exploring one of South America’s greatest treasures?
