ECO TRAVEL

Sustainable honeymoon specialists, Purpose Travel, highlight their top five eco-friendly destinations

Indonesia

Indonesia offers a dazzling array of experiences to offer a honeymoon with a difference. Between temples and rice paddies in the glittering countryside to the white sand beaches of the islands and watersports, you can have both a relaxing and adventurous honeymoon.

There are many eco resorts and flight free travel cross country itineraries to choose from, making this a Purpose Travel favourite for romantic getaways. From £4,000 per couple for 10 nights in a luxury eco resort.

New Zealand

Couples looking for a bucket list destination which is off-grid but also offers luxurious resorts, New Zealand is a great choice. The stunning scenery and seclusion makes this country naturally sustainable and with lots of eco-accommodation available, there is plenty to choose from.

New Zealand is also very much catered to those couples wanting adventure too. Honeymooners can go zip lining, horseback riding, take part in watersports and much more to really experience the trip of a lifetime.

From £6,000 per couple for 10 nights in a luxury eco resort.

Costa Rica

Translating to ‘rich coast’, Costa Rica certainly lives up to its name. This Central American country has more than 300 idyllic beaches between its Pacific and Caribbean coasts. Not only that, but this unique destination has an astounding variety of wildlife, national parks, and conservation areas.

As if that wasn’t enough, Costa Rica was one of the first countries to promote responsible ecotourism so you can relax, safe in the knowledge you are honeymooning with purpose.

From £4,000 per couple for 10 nights in a luxury eco resort.

Botswana

Botswana is the most eco friendly country in Africa with almost 40% of its land officially protected for its incredible wildlife including the Big Five. Honeymoons here are all about luxury safari lodges and travelling through secluded national parks and game reserves.

Couples can even combine the stunning Botswana landscapes with Zambia to see the famous Victoria Falls for a true itinerary of a lifetime.

From £7,000 per couple for 10 nights in a luxury safari lodge.

Slovenia

Slovenia is the go-to destination in Europe at the moment, and for good reason. This small country has been declared a Green Destination of the World and offers enough beautiful landscapes and diverse attractions for a stunning honeymoon.

You can easily hop between magical lakes and mountains and the bustling cities. Slovenia’s location between Italy, Austria, Hungary, and Croatia makes it ideal for tasting different food and wine too. Why not travel by rail and relax as you take in the surroundings as you go, or pair it with a trip to Venice for a twin centre honeymoon?

From £3,000 per couple for 10 nights in a luxury eco resort.
