More about Leisurely TravelsFrequently asked questions
The things couples ask us most.
When is the best time to go to Santorini for a honeymoon?
May, June, September and October offer warm weather with fewer crowds than July and August, and the sea stays warm into early autumn.
When should we take a babymoon?
Most doctors suggest the second trimester, roughly weeks 14 to 28, when energy is often higher and morning sickness has usually eased. Always check with your own doctor before you travel.
Do we need a passport for Hawaii, Charleston or Savannah?
No. They are in the United States, so US citizens do not need a passport there. You will need a valid passport for Santorini, Rome, Paris and the Maldives.
How long should a passport be valid?
Many countries require your passport to be valid for at least six months beyond your travel dates, so check yours well before you book.
How far ahead should we plan a honeymoon?
Booking 6 to 12 months ahead gives the best choice of hotels and flights, especially for popular months such as May, June and September.
