Romantic getaways in Johannesburg
If you're looking for a uniquely romantic destination that mixes fascinating history, lively culture and a spectacular natural setting, Johannesburg may be the perfect spot for your next couples' vacation. South Africa's largest city is a hotbed of urban renewal, with a trendy dining scene, nightlife, and shopping to rival any international city. Culture vultures will be more than entertained, with a choice of theaters and galleries and an eclectic selection of museums covering everything from apartheid to beer and the city's gold rush days. It's also an ideal starting point to experience the romance of the African landscape, and get up close to some big game on a wildlife safari in a nearby national park – and its southern hemisphere location makes it perfect for a winter honeymoon in the sun.
Escape to Hong Kong
Offering an intoxicating blend of ultra-modern architecture and rich, traditional culture, Hong Kong is a city that's constantly on the move – with a cosmopolitan romance all its own. From ornate Buddhist temples and colonial-era buildings, to some of the world's best restaurants and an outstanding selection of museums and galleries, there is plenty to explore during a couples' break. Ride the tram to the top of Victoria Peak for amazing views of the city, or take a boat ride on the harbor and discover its picturesque islands, complete with quaint fishing villages and peaceful beaches. Shop in luxury boutiques and colorful street markets, or catch a performance of traditional Chinese opera. And of course, when the sun goes down you can experience the city's eclectic nightlife – the perfect way to round off a honeymoon or romantic vacation in this kaleidoscopic destination.

Beachside romance in Tel Aviv
Amazing beaches, colorful nightlife, and a city with no shortage of historical sites and cultural attractions, Tel Aviv is a great couples destination. Take a stroll on the Tayelet, a 3 mile beachside boardwalk that runs along the Mediterranenan or explore the Nahalat Binyamin Market with over 200 outdoor stalls that sell everything from jewelry to handmade arts and crafts. With 16 beaches, Tel Aviv has miles of waterfront to relax on and plenty of resorts that offer sophistication and tranquility right on the Mediterranean sea. Fly to Tel Aviv via London Heathrow from our US gateways and enjoy a romantic getaway like no other.
Romantic things to do in London
For a romantic getaway with a rich dose of history, culture and fabulous urban style, few destinations can beat London. Pose for photos in front of world-famous tourist attractions such as Big Ben, Piccadilly Circus and Tower Bridge, and enjoy the thriving theater scene and outstanding museums and galleries. Plus, there's nothing more romantic than strolling along the banks of the Thames in a light mist, or through Regent’s Park in the summer sunshine, hand in hand with your beloved. Experience the thrill of shopping on Oxford Street or browsing Portobello Road Market, dine in one of London's most romantic restaurants, then check out the vibrant bar and club scene at night – there's never a dull moment in the energetic British capital.
