A cruise is a very popular choice for a honeymoon vacation. Some of the more popular honeymoon cruise destinations are Hawaii, Tahiti, the Caribbean, Mexican Riviera and Europe (especially the Mediterranean). Being that a honeymoon is such a special once in a lifetime event, most honeymooners prefer to purchase a stateroom with a balcony, or a suite, for their honeymoon cruise. However, being able to purchase a cruise in an interior or ocean view stateroom is a great option for those looking to take a honeymoon on a budget.

Besides the cruise itself, we can arrange for many special amenities and events for your honeymoon (depending on the particular cruise you choose). Such arrangements may include special gift baskets, exclusive meals, guaranteed dining room seats for two, roses, flowers, bathrobes, portraits and much more. Most of these services are available at an additional cost, but are well worth the memories and enjoyment that they'll add to your honeymoon.

Among the most popular cruise lines for honeymoon cruises are:
