Anyone can find a white-sand beach and book candlelit dinners. But consider the unexpected for your anniversary getaway – think frozen icescapes and wilderness stalked by wildlife, crumbling temples steeped in history, or even a honeymoon safari. Enjoy precious time for the two of you on one of these TRIPS by Culture Trip adult getaways for couples.
1. Chase the Northern Lights and soak in hot springs in Iceland’s Frozen Wilderness
If you’re hoping for a fun getaway for couples in Europe, with bags of wow factor, Iceland won’t disappoint. There’ll be plenty of chance to snuggle up together as you head away from Reykjavik to the Borgarfjordur region to soak in hot springs and (hopefully) spot the Northern Lights, then continue to the Golden Circle to tour a snowmobile on a glacier and walk behind a waterfall. You’ll be reliving this one together for years.

2. Make cocktails and local dishes on Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula
With its icing sugar beaches and clear waters, Mexico is one of the best anniversary getaway destinations. If you’re willing to leave the lounger behind on this tour, you’ll be floored by the famous Mayan ruins, sample the tequila alternative, known as “pox”, and even join classes in Mexican cooking and cocktail making. A sunset catamaran tour will up the romance factor, too.

3. Get up close to elephants and leopards in Sri Lanka
Safaris don’t have to mean heading to Africa. Head to Sri Lanka on the 12-day trip and spy wild elephants, leopards and crocodiles. Fancy whale-watching? An optional tour from Kosgoda makes an unforgettable extra. Throw in white-water rafting, climbing an ancient fortress and abseiling down the Sandun Ella waterfall, and this off-the-beaten-path anniversary will feel like a dream come true.

4. Ride a camel across the Moroccan Sahara
Anniversary itineraries don’t come much more magical than mystical Morocco, with its noisy markets, untouched expanses of desert and snow-dusted mountain ranges. From classy Casablanca to frenzied Marrakech, this tour will take you and your partner to the oceanfront city of Tangier, the wildflower-studded Rif Mountains sand and even the sands of the Sahara, where you’ll ride a camel then bed down under the stars in a Berber-style tent.
