Honeymoon packages in Rome

The Eternal City of Rome is one of the leading honeymoon destinations in Europe. Ancient, romantic and beautiful, there is far more to it than the Coliseum crowds and designer shopping. Book a honeymoon package with us at The Co-operative Travel, and you will enjoy the very best this lovely city has to offer.

Rome is the city of Romance – the two words go together. The honeymoon destination for thousands of newlyweds, the backstreets are as enticing as the famous tourist haunts. 

The hotel rooms themselves are often works of art, housed in classical buildings and 18th century palaces - there’s even a converted mediaeval monastery. Tear yourself away from the grandeur of your room, and there are cascading balconies of flowers, public gardens and mediaeval streets to explore – often in quieter backwaters where the tourists don’t go. The Piazza Navona, Pantheon, Coliseum and Campo de' Fiori are eternally popular, but wander beyond and there are dozens of pretty areas where couples can wander in privacy.

Tips on booking your Roman honeymoon

Honeymoon packages are best booked in spring or autumn. During the summer months the city can get overpoweringly hot and crowded, and many shops and restaurants are closed.

Whether you choose a quiet, terraced boutique or an all-inclusive honeymoon package in a modern spa, you are surrounded by shopping opportunities – everything from chocolates to designer fashions - so make sure your luggage is big enough to take it all home. 

If you’ve chosen a combined honeymoon and wedding abroad, there’s no need to worry about crushing a simple linen shift into your suitcase.  Simply buy or hire a bridal gown off the peg when you get there – Rome is famous for its designer bridal fashions.

Romantic walks after dark

In Rome, the emphasis is on unashamed luxury with discretion, making it the ideal honeymoon destination for couples who want to enjoy each other’s company, and wander the streets hand-in-hand.

The city has hundreds of intimate trattorias and bistros. Stroll to the top of the Spanish Steps, and you can enjoy the view of the city from the seclusion of the terrace restaurant. Alternatively, enjoy a picnic in the romantic public rose garden, or sit on the steps of the Forum and watch the world go by. See the Pantheon by moonlight; grip each other tightly in the spooky Catacombs tour, or catch a concert at Petrassi Hall.

Rome is one of Europe’s top honeymoon locations, a city of romance,  beauty and mystique. Book a honeymoon package with us at The Co-operative Travel, and it will stay in your mind forever.
