Planning a November honeymoon? November offers amazing potential for honeymoons, whether you're hunting for sunshine or looking for a head start on the slopes, eager for a shopping fix or have something altogether exotic in mind! We've rounded up our favourite destinations for a honeymoon in November, all you have to do if pick the spot!
Morocco
November in Morocco provides the perfect temperates for strolling the souks in Marrakesh, exploring the Atlas Mountains or camping out in the Sahara Desert. While it's not quite hot enough for Moroccan beach resorts (and there may be the occasional rain shower), it's a great time to fit in activities like hiking or camel riding, plus you'll avail of great rates and smaller crowds! The International Film Festival of Marrakech in late November is a particular highlight you won't want to miss!
Tanzania
While heavy rains hit many safari regions in November, in Northern Tanzania, the Great Migration is into its flow, as vast herds start to cross the Serengeti. Light rain won't dampen your chances of seeing the Big Five, and as it's technically 'off-season' you can avail rates dropping by up to 40% in some of the country's best camps and lodges. For a trip you'll never forget, make sure you leave plenty of time in your itinerary for elephant and rhino-spotting at Ngorongoro Crater.
United States
November in the USA offers up all manner of options for honeymooners. Peak pumpkin spice season, Thanksgiving (and all its trimmings!) gives honeymooners a unique, quintessentially American experience. For avid skiers, the Aspen ski season kicks off with an early opportunity to hit the slopes, or for near perfect sunshine, don your lei and head to Hawaii. November is a great time to take a more temperate road trip too - the South West is our pick for lots of sunshine and plenty of great places to stop; Antelope Canyon, Joshua Tree, Santa Fe and Palm Springs are all topping our bucket list.
Cambodia or Vietnam
The rainy season is over and the temperatures are far more bearable; November is a great time to visit Cambodia, Vietnam, or both! These two stunning South East Asia countries are equally steeped in fascinating history - ancient and modern - and both boast stunning landscapes, captivating temples, beautiful beaches, exciting cities and incredible food. Whether you take in a multi-stop trip, or combine culture with some relaxation, you're in for one spectacular honeymoon.
Australia and New Zealand
November is late spring in Australia and New Zealand and a gorgeous time to explore these vast and varied countries. Both Australia and New Zealand offer up all kinds of adventures; long road trips, glorious coast lines, ambitious hikes, and fabulous wine tasting, and that's before we talk about the cities!
Argentina
November is the start of summer in Argentina, with temperatures in Buenos Aires hitting the mid-twenties daily. As the main throngs of tourists visit in December, it's a great time to explore without the crowds and peak pricing. If nature calls, Patagonia will be in full bloom, head north to the heat at Iguazú Falls or hit wine country and go winery-hopping by horseback in Mendoza.
Seychelles
One of the best months to visit the Seychelles, November sees this popular honeymoon destination go from hot and humid to a little more temperate with a breeze. Calmer conditions on the water make this the perfect time to laze on the beach, or if you're feeling a little more energetic, take to the water for snorkelling, paddle-boarding or diving.
