While many people celebrate their anniversaries over dinner, with flowers, and occasionally with a small trip, we think there is another great way to do it; a dream trip! What better way to celebrate a milestone than by taking the vacation of a lifetime?
Whether it's a city you've always dreamed of exploring or a country you visited together long ago, an anniversary is a perfect reason to head out on an adventure.
Booking a guided vacation means you don’t have to worry about anything else once you pack your bags. You’re left free to explore the world with your partner, your best friend, and the one you love. Here’s a look at our top vacations that are simply perfect for celebrating an anniversary.
10 Most Romantic Cities in Europe
Italy has so much to offer that it's almost overwhelming. From the ancient ruins of Rome and the iconic Colosseum to the charming canals of Venice and the picturesque rolling hills of Tuscany, every corner of this country exudes romance and history.
An anniversary trip to Italy means that you’ll be creating memories in an infinite number of ways. Imagine strolling hand-in-hand through the cobblestone streets of Florence, savoring a gelato while gazing at the magnificent Duomo, or taking a serenaded gondola ride through the Venetian canals.
Whether you're exploring historic sites, indulging in the world-renowned cuisine, or simply soaking in the beautiful landscapes, Italy provides the perfect backdrop for a romantic getaway that will be cherished for a lifetime.
There’s "all-inclusive," and then there’s the unmatched level of included luxurious amenities that you'll only find on a Uniworld river cruise. For truly carefree and effortless travel, Uniworld goes above and beyond and included it all, so the only thing you have to do is sit back, relax and enjoy your vacation.
Imagine UNLIMITED premium spirits and wines, delicious, FIVE-STAR, farm-to-table cuisine, ultra-luxurious accommodations, and an array of thoughtful, personal touches, ensuring a truly indulgent and unforgettable voyage. Like your Manhattans a certain way? They'll remember it. Want surprises of chocolates and champagne? Easily done. If you're looking to really go all out and do something incredibly special to celebrate a big milestone, we think a river cruise is the way to go.
Locally-based destination experts will take you well beyond the “must-sees” of each region, offering fresh takes on classic sites, insider knowledge of delightful under-the-radar locales, and VIP access to places only a privileged few will ever experience—such as a private early-morning viewing of the acclaimed art collection of the Kunstkammer Vienna. Or exploring a castle rarely open to the public, accompanied by a local wine expert, sampling wines in different locations.
"Overall, we had an awesome vacation. The River Beatrice staff made our second Uniworld river cruise another truly exceptional travel experience. Our first river cruise on the River Queen was awesome also. Our recent cruise fromPassau to Budapest was perfect in almost every way. Our cabin was very comfortable and like the River Beatrice, was beautifully furnished. The food was delicious with lots of variety and healthy choices. The ship provided a wide variety of complimentary beverages including wines from the areas we were traveling through. However, it is the crew of the River Beatrice that made our cruise so special. Every crew member was extremely responsive to all passengers and they just could not do enough for us it seemed. Like after our first Uniworld river cruise, we cannot wait until our next Uniworld river cruise."
When you get right down to it, France is the gold standard when it comes to romance. In Paris, the City of Lights, it's incredibly difficult to ignore the romance surrounding you. The iconic Eiffel Tower, which lights up the night sky, serves as a timeless symbol of love and a perfect backdrop for unforgettable moments. Stroll along the Seine River, crossing charming bridges like the Pont des Arts, where couples leave padlocks as a symbol of their unbreakable bond (much to the chagrin of the local government).
Paris is also a treasure trove of artistic and cultural experiences. The Louvre Museum, home to the enigmatic Mona Lisa, and the Musée d'Orsay, with its stunning collection of Impressionist masterpieces, invite you to immerse yourselves in the beauty and history of art. The streets of Montmartre, with its bohemian atmosphere, are perfect for a leisurely walk, discovering hidden cafes and local artists at every turn.
The French know how to do romance beyond the capital city. Head to the enchanting region of Provence, where lavender fields stretch as far as the eye can see, and charming villages like Arles that offer idyllic settings for intimate escapes. In the Loire Valley, you can explore fairytale-like châteaux, each with its own unique story and gardens that seem straight out of a dream.
For wine enthusiasts, a trip to Bordeaux or Burgundy provides the opportunity to indulge in some of the world's finest wines. Tour the vineyards, enjoy tastings, and savor gourmet meals that perfectly complement the local vintages. The Champagne region, known for its sparkling wine, is another must-visit, offering luxurious experiences that celebrate the art of winemaking.
An indulgent adventure in France wouldn't be complete without experiencing the country's culinary delights. From flaky croissants and delicate pastries at a Parisian patisserie to multi-course dinners at Michelin-starred restaurants, French cuisine is a feast for the senses. Enjoy a romantic dinner at a bistro, savoring dishes like coq au vin and crème brûlée, or have a picnic with a fresh baguette, artisanal cheese, and a bottle of wine in a beautiful park.
France's diverse landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and unparalleled commitment to the art of living make it the perfect destination for a romantic and indulgent adventure. Whether you're exploring bustling cities, picturesque countryside, or coastal retreats, every moment in France promises to be filled with passion, beauty, and unforgettable memories.
