If you’re in the planning stages and will soon count yourself among the approximately 2.3 million couples who wed in the U.S. each year, you may also be planning a honeymoon vacation following your nuptials. If you haven’t already got your eye on a specific destination, you may be wondering where to venture to.

No worries! We’ve got some ideas ready for your consideration.

Thanks to Tripadvisor’s Best of the Best Destinations for 2024, we have a glimpse into traveler behavior specifically when it comes to booking trips for the purpose of a honeymoon. According to Tripadvisor, these destinations have earned this designation by being among those who receive a high volume of above-and-beyond reviews and opinions from the Tripadvisor community over a 12-month period. (Apparently out of the website’s eight million listings, fewer than 1% achieve this milestone.)
