We have searched the globe for five of the most romantic getaways that will either spark the romance or rekindle the flame.These are our top five romantic destinations around the world.

Paris, France

Paris, the city of lights

Who can resist that velvety accent, fine wine, and abundance of history, art, and sites? The Eiffel Tower and Arc de Triomphe are only two such sites that set the scene for a romantic backdrop. It is difficult not to find romantic things to do in Paris; whether it is fine dining, site seeing, massages or being immersed in the city’s art, music, and performances. You are sure to find something to see or do.

Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe

Victoria falls in ZimbabweAfrica is not just about Safaris, there are romantic destinations too. One such destination is the World Heritage Site, the Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. It is a popular wedding venue and understandably so. Its Shona name translates to “the smoke that thunders” – how poetic! The falls get their English name from David Livingston, a Scottish explorer, who named it after Queen Victoria in 1855. To give you an idea of how big this waterfall is, it is about twice the height of America’s Niagara Falls. Rather than making a suicide pact with your partner like they do in the movies, why not brave Devil’s Pool? It is a naturally formed pool at the waterfall’s edge that makes it seem like you could easily slip off the ledge. There is a slight risk, but it makes for good pictures!
