When planning your honeymoon, especially in Europe, it’s important to take note of the season you’re travelling in. This is crucial factor will affect the sights and scenes available during your trip, either limiting or expanding your itinerary. If you’re keen to see flowers in bloom or catch the picturesque countryside, opt to travel during the spring or summer. Insight Vacations’ Grand Spain and Portugal tour is of the same mind as their summer itinerary takes you to the Picos de Europa National Park to admire the sublime natural scenery at the height of its splendour.

In the same way, if you’re considering a winter honeymoon, do note that some attractions may not be open or open for shorter hours in the colder months! On the other hand, winter trips give you the chance to check out the country’s Christmas markets and other winter festivals.
