Diana’s spent time in Cuba, Nigeria, France, Egypt, to name a few. I’ve been in Hungary, Austria, Ireland... Alaska... we’re both comfortable abroad and in youth hostel type accommodations. We’re looking for beautiful and warm, adventureish but it’s a honeymoon, so nothing too sketchy. A relaxing bike tour. Like Robert Persig said “We are trying make good time, with the emphasis on good, rather than time.”



If you want to spend the big bucks and travel abroad then consider southern Italy. Should be warm enough in winter.

But again that is a really big investment for someone hat has never toured. Italy was my very first tour and I really regret I did not do something shorter and local first. It would have been a MUCH better tour.

While a bicycler tour honeymoon might sound romantic, a successful tour is not a simple thing to pull off. There is a LOT to learn. Camping and credit card touring both have their challenges. A lot of little things you learn from a short tour that are really hard to learn about in a book or in a forum. The good news is that you will learn a lot in your first tour or two making future tours that much more successful.

Any tour can be a bit stressful at times. Your first tour especially You do want to come back from your honeymoon still married correct?
