Virtuoso and BRIDES Magazine partnered to determine the world’s top honeymoon destinations.

Since we opened our Roaming Boomers Travel Services, and were invited to join the prestigious Virtuoso Travel Network, we’ve found that many of our readers have turned to us to help their children plan fabulous honeymoon getaways.

It’s been great fun to help these young lovers find and visit some of the world’s best destinations to celebrate their new marriages.

As you might imagine, the very first question honeymooners have for us revolves around which particular region of the world to visit, and in particular, which specific resort.

In an effort to answer this oft-asked question, BRIDES magazine, in its June/July edition, has published the results of a new survey of Virtuoso travel experts on the world’s top honeymoon destinations.
