A great start to married life
With the summer wedding season now in full swing, online tour operator Backyard Travel is offering romantic honeymoon trips to Japan and Vietnam.
Encapsulating all that is poetic and romantic about Japan, the eight-day Shinto Shrines and Steaming Onsen: Honeymoon journey begins in Tokyo to take in the ancient amidst the ultra-modern.
Couples will visit the traditional tea house Nakajima No Chaya and soak in an onsen spring in a lovely old ryokan, and wander through the iconic red Shinto gates of Fushimi Inari shrine. That’s followed by a trip to Hakone national park at the foot of Mount Fuji before speeding off to Kyoto on the shinkansen bullet train.
In Kyoto, newlyweds can enjoy walking tours to visit historic shrines, castles and the wooden townhouses of Sannen-zaka.
For couples preferring something more tropical, the 12-day Live, Love and Laugh in Vietnam encompasses urban adventures, breathtaking landscapes and idyllic islands.
From Hanoi to Hoi An and Halong Bay, this honeymoon programme includes unforgettable experiences including cruising between limestone karsts, lazing on the powder-fine sands of Phuc Quoc, scooting around on a Vespa in Saigon and more.
