Honeymoon help!

Hiya,

I’m hoping one of you lovely people will be able to help us. :D

We are getting married in May and we are trying to book our honeymoon, We would like to go to the USA and Mexico/Cuba. Ideally we would like to go to San Francisco for 5-7 nights and then either Mexico City or Cuba for another 5-7 nights. :j

We aren’t really lounge around the beach/pool type of people so we want to have plenty to do. We don’t drive so unfortunately a fly drive is out of the question.

Does anybody know a good multi centre place? Also, to make things a bit more awkward we are asking for our honeymoon as our gift, so we need to book with one agent so that guests can pay into the account. :confused:

Any help or ideas would be gratefully received.

    We got married in May 2003 and it was in Mauritius on the beach. I know it is not Cuba and the States but perhaps it would be an idea.

    We stayed at the Belle Mare Plage and it was fantastic. Lots of free watersports and golf if you want to keep active. Lots of people staying there did a two centre holiday with Safari in South Africa and then 7 to 10 days in Mauritius. Alternatively if you like to visit cities you could combine a stay in Cape Town with Mauritius. Cape Town is amazing and so is South Africa one of my favorite places in the world.

    The weather was about 25 - 30 degrees in mid May not too hot but just right. Another advantage is there is no jetlag it is just an 11 hour flight with 1 hours time difference.

    Hope this help and have a fabulous time.
