5 Romantic Destinations for Couples' Getaway
For a vast array of romantic choices, we recommend you visit the following five countries for a romantic trip. For each country a stay of 5 days to 2 weeks is suggested.
1. Thailand
Best time to visit: November to early April
As the Land of Smiles, Thailand offers a happy atmosphere for a romantic trip. Meet the smiling people, immerse yourself in the Buddhist culture, and lie peacefully on the sunny beaches.
When travelling to Thailand, Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and Ko Samui are on most romantic travelers' bucket lists. Take a tuk-tuk car to discover the bustling nightlife in Bangkok, visit an elephant rescue station in Chiang Mai, and enjoy private, quality hours at a relaxing resort on Samui.

2. Vietnam
Best time to visit: October to April
In Vietnam, a romantic getaway can't miss out Halong Bay. Hop on a luxury cruise, visit the special floating villages, and spend a night among peaceful seascapes with stunning sunset and sunrise potential. All will create a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
A world of lanterns, Hoi An is a perfect backdrop for a romantic trip. You'll see newly-weds taking wedding photos everywhere. If you like, wear Vietnam's traditional ao dai costume and capture memorable pictures. Taking a lantern boat ride will make your night special as well.
Quite different from the bustling modern life in nearby Ho Chi Min City, the Mekong Delta shows you Vietnam's traditional lifestyle at the floating markets.

3. Myanmar
Best time to visit: November to February
Sunrises and sunsets in Bagan are iconic spectacles that appeal to honeymoon travelers. At sunrise, a hot air balloon ride over 2,000 pagodas and temples offers unrivaled scenery and creates a lifetime-high experience!
Inle Lake is another must-see in Myanmar for its villages over the water and its traditional floating markets. At sunset, encounter local fishermen and see their remarkable "leg-casting" fishing techniques.
4. Bali
Best time to visit: April–October
Romance is the trademark of Bali. It's a hot spot for weddings and honeymoons.
Beyond the stunning beaches, Ubud is a bonus reason to visit Bali for its exotic Indonesian temples, peaceful jungles, active volcanoes, and emerald rice terraces.
A candlelit dinner is a perfect way to make a little surprise and say "I love you". You could have a private candlelit dinner in various settings: a hidden cave, a private beach, a bird-nest-shaped cabana over the jungle, among the rice terraces...

5. India
Best time to visit: December to February
India is packed with romantic choices for sweet moments. Wander around the Taj Mahal — a symbol of true love, rickshaw through the pink city, enjoy a candlelit dinner like a king and queen in Amber Fort, camp in the Thar Desert on a starry night...
When planning a romantic trip to India, the golden triangle is a must for first-timers. With more time, you could extend to Goa and Kerala for sandy beaches, Varanasi for a pilgrimage to the Ganges River or Rajasthan for historic castles, desert, and wildlife.

Thailand, Singapore, Bali
In Thailand, Tanny and Nori(Suparp), were both incredible! They were both fun, funny, and full of knowledge and made sure we got the full experience. They went the extra mile and always made sure we had cold bottled water and towels to cleanse our hands. In Singapore, Nicole was an absolute gem. She was so kind and knowledgeable and guided us in the right direction to make our day as enjoyable as possible. She helped us choose a top notch local lunch and coffee spot in China Town and taught us so much about the country! In Bali, Emon was an absolute joy. He was very knowledgeable and kind and absolutely made sure we were feeling comfortable and was willing to be flexible with us. He was fun to converse with and made our time traveling between destinations so enjoyable! I cannot recommend Asia Highlights enough! Accommodations, travel arrangements and guided tours were all a breeze. More

Large multi-generational holiday in Thailand
The holiday was wonderful. Our guides, Mr Monchai (Bangkok), and Ms Tipagorn (Tippy) (Chiang Mai) were exceptional. Travelling in a large multigenerational group with many children requires patience and our guides truly understood that. Mr Monchai and Ms Tippy shared their extensive knowledge of the many wonderful places we visited, and were flexible to take us to additional places along the way based on discussions. While everyday was busy, having them greet us with patience and a smile truly made this a memorable holiday. The hotels we stayed at were equally wonderful and went above and beyond to celebrate not only my parents 50th anniversary but also celebrate 2 milestone birthdays that occurred. We will cherish this holiday for many years to come. We hope to use Asia Highlights again. More

Wonderful Guides and Experience
Our large group arrived in Bangkok with Tanni as our guide. She was wonderful! An absolute joy to spend time with. She is knowledgeable, kind, and extremely funny. I don’t know what we would have done without her! After Bangkok, we traveled to Chang Mai, where Indy was our tour guide. She was a delight! She is kind, knowledgeable, and so patient. Our trip to Thailand was an adventure of a lifetime and these two women helped make it memorable. I would definitely use Asia Highlights for any future travel in Asia. More

Guide - Chai
We travelled from Vietnam to Bangkok and were blessed to have a guide named Chai. He was a superb guide and it is a pity we couldn't bottle him and take him home. He was very knowledgeable and an absolute gentleman. He could not have done enough to facilitate us and imparted so much knowledge about the Temples, Buddism and the History of Thailand in general. Not only did he give us a great overview of the past and current ways of living in Thailand but I also feel I came away a much better person having interacting with him. I will carry many of his teachings with me for the rest of my life and know that having met him was a very special blessing in my life. More

We are only on day 5 of our 15 day trip…
Our first stop so far was in Hanoi where our guide Trong was just so awesome! He shared about his culture and family life which showing us sites through a city tour. He was so funny making lots of jokes and always made sure we were having fun while learning about everything! He checked on us frequently even when we were no longer with him since we then went on a cruise in Halong Bay! Halong Bay and the cruise on Paradise Elegance went way above anything I expected. The scenery was breathtaking, the ship was so beautiful and clean with such fresh, good food! And I can’t sing enough praise for the staff who took care of us- especially Anna and Belle! They went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed every aspect from eating meals with Anna to every other detail with Belle! I highly recommend Asian Highlights to help plan these extraordinary trips! This already has been a trip of a lifetime and we still have so much more to see all thanks to Cathy!! More

Tanni was amazing! She did all the thinking for us, so we all could just be present and enjoy the moment. I can’t recommend this company, and especially Tanni enough. More

Popular Itineraries for Romantic Escapes
If you prefer a relaxing pace but only have 7–10 days, just focus on one country. Thailand and Bali are the top choices for you. You can select one of them according to your travel date. From October to March, Thailand has dry weather when Bali is in its rainy season. For more cultural adventures, India is a third option.
With 2+ weeks, you could easily visit 2–3 countries for more discoveries in Asia. The best combos are based on similar good weather seasons, variety of features, and convenient transportation.
The popular combos are:
- Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia
- Singapore and Bali
- India, Nepal, and Bhutan
Can't decide? Contact us: we are here to help. We will help you select the best travel combinations based on your interests, schedule, budget, preferences, and other requirements.
Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia: The Most Characteristic View of Southeast Asia (Most Popular)

You'll see some of the most iconic highlights in Asia, such as Halong Bay in Vietnam, the Mekong River, and the amazing Angkor Wat in Cambodia.
You are suggested to travel for 3 weeks and in the sequence of Vietnam, Cambodia, then Thailand. You can shorten it to 2 weeks as well.
If you have more time, travel to Laos for Luang Prabang and Myanmar for Bagan and Phnom Penh.
You can see the following sample itinerary. For any other interests / customizations, you're warmly welcomed to contact us for a tailor-made itinerary.
Days 1–8: Vietnam

Arriving in Hanoi, explore the historic old quarter and taste delicious pho (noodle soup), then on to Halong Bay for an overnight cruise. Travel to central Hoi An for its old town, cooking class, and colorful lanterns. And finally, take three days to explore Ho Chi Minh City with an excursion to the Mekong Delta.
Days 9–11: Siem Reap in Cambodia

Fly to Cambodia's Siem Reap and get lost in the crumbling world of the lost Khmer Empire — Angkor Wat. Cycling around the temple complex or taking a sunrise balloon ride are incredible ways to admire it.
Days 12–19: Thailand
Fly to Thailand's capital Bangkok from Siem Reap.
Enjoy a day trip in Bangkok for the city highlights, like the Grand Palace. Then stay 2 nights in Chiang Mai for rural life, temples, mountains, and an elephant experience. To wind down, relax on an island (Phuket or Koh Samui) for 4 days.
Singapore and Bali: Relaxing Getaway

Singapore is known for its urban life, high skyline buildings, shopping paradise, and for being a cultural hub. As an air hub in Asia, you should have a rich choice of flights and can enjoy the first-class service of Singapore Airport/Airlines.
Bali is a paradise for beach lovers, foodies and adventurers.
These two countries are good alternatives if your schedule meets the rainy season (May to October) in other Asian countries.
Check out the following 2-week itinerary for inspiration:
Days 1–6: Singapore
Staying 6 days in Singapore is suggested. Although it is not a big country, you still have a lot to explore.
You can soak up the cultural diversity in China Town, Kampong Glam, and Little India. For a food adventure, just go to Old Airport Road Food Centre and sip a Singapore Sling at a rooftop bar. Cycling around rustic Pulau Ubin Island deserves an unhurried few hours.
Days 7–13 Bali

Flying to Bali, head to Ubud, the artistic center of Bali, and stay at a jungle hotel for 3 nights. You have options to get blessed in sacred Balinese temples, do yoga in the lush jungle, and hike among emerald rice terraces at Jatiluwih.
Then transfer to one of southern beaches (Uluwatu, Nusa Dua, or Seminyak) for the last 3 nights. The fine dining and boutique hotels with infinity pools will amaze you.

Fly to Kathmandu and discover history-filled Kathmandu Valley. You'll encounter magnificent royal palaces and holy pilgrimage sites like Swayambhunath and Pashupatinath.
