For a milestone birthday celebration, I want to plan a memorable trip for my wife. The only issue is the proximity of her b-day to Christmas, as that also coincides well with the part of the year we can take the most time off - between 14-17 days.
I'm looking for ideas for locations we can visit that meet some of the following criteria:
I'm looking for ideas for locations we can visit that meet some of the following criteria:
- Many things (restaurants, hotels, attractions) open on Christmas
- Generally pleasant climate
- Affordability (price and/or currency)
- Things to do (sights, museums, history)
- Nothing to do (beach, relax, strolls, leisurely pace)
- Good food, and variety if possible
- Not mobbed by tourists (at that particular time of year)
- Language flexibility (she's got the Romance languages down)
- Trip of a lifetime qualities - things you may only be able to do once
- Something that may not be easy when we have kids in the future
- Maldives
- Thailand
Istanbul + Greece- Morocco
- Australia
