Top Adventure Travel Ideas for Couples

Like the sound of wine, stargazing, sunrise hikes and wild camping? Follow us into Jordan’s desert and that’s what you’ll get, in abundance. You’ll spend nine days trekking through the mountains, stomping across the desert and camping under the stars as you explore Jordan’s coolest sites. Petra, the Dead Sea and Amman are just the highlights; unique experiences like climbing Mount Haron and spending the night with a local Bedouin family will deliver an adventure like no other.

Get off the beaten track on this nine-day adventure to Georgia and the Caucasus Mountains. You and your partner will learn about ancient winemaking techniques in Kakheti, hike in Lagodekhi National Park and trek to Gergeti Trinity Church, high above the town of Stepantsminda. You’ll also drive through the Truso Gorge to the village of Juta, where you have an optional hike to see the Chaukhi Massif, a jagged mountain peak. After all that, it’ll be a relief to spend your penultimate day soaking in the sulphur baths in Tbilisi and experiencing blissful relaxation.

From neon-lit skyscrapers to bamboo forests dotted with ancient temples, there’s nowhere quite like Japan. This 12-day trip will take you from the foodie capital of Osaka, to the city lights of Tokyo and even down to the floating Torii Gate of Miyajima Island, which sits in Hiroshima Bay. Along the way, you’ll get to see geishas in Kyoto, sample sake in Takayama and watch sumo wrestlers train in the capital. You’ll even get the chance to stay in a traditional ryokan-style hotel and sing your heart out at karaoke alongside your fellow travellers. How can we squeeze so much into one itinerary? You have Japan’s incredible train networks to thank.
