When you're planning a vacation with your special one, you want the destination to be made for romance. Here are AskMen.com's choices for the most romantic getaways in the world. Whether you're trying to find the perfect honeymoon destination or you just want a starry-eyed adventure with your loved one, these places are guaranteed to bring more love and excitement into your relationship than ever before.
Number 10
Greek Islands
Perfect for the bachelor, the family or the couple wanting to visit something different, the beautiful clear waters, delicious food, and mesmerizing sunsets(especially in Oia) are all part of the charm.
Number 9
Malta
A friend of mine went to the Maltese Islands for his honeymoon and never stopped ranting about it. Embrace the tranquility and charm of these islands and soak up over 6,000 years of civilization.
Number 8
Vienna, Austria
Mozart may have been born in Salzburg, but there is a reason he died in Vienna. One of the most historic cities in the Old Continent, Vienna is rich in culture and the arts and offers a perfect setting for bringing your relationship to the next level.
Number 7
Algarve, Portugal
For a change, visit Spain's neighbor and enjoy great beaches, wonderful travel resorts, and spectacular golf courses -- all perhaps, for the best bang for your buck. Portugal is a truly undiscovered European jewel.
Number 6
Paris, France
Some may say the destination is overrated, but Paris makes the list of romantic getaways based on its reputation as the City of Lights alone. While definitely an expensive choice, the city's rich history, arts and culture -- not to mention the food -- will make your woman love you for taking her on this getaway. The Eiffel Tower and Louvre are a must, and make sure to head to Versailles. Just don't let her run off with your credit card to go shopping on Les Champs Elysees.
Number 5
Venice, Italy
Make sure you get to Venice before the city goes under water -- seriously. There is a reason the city has served as the backdrop to numerous romantic operas and date flicks, and where else can you take a gondola ride with your loved one?
Number 4
Turkey
Europe meets Asia in the first of our romantic getaways. Thousands of years of history and a rich, diverse cultural background as displayed by breathtaking art and scenic architecture make Turkey a must-see vacation spot. The area has beautiful coasts, amazing landscapes and food that will leave you wanting more.
Number 3
Argentina
While any trip to South America promises to be memorable, Argentina is definitely a must. Taste a bit of Europe in lovely Buenos Aires; if you're lucky enough, maybe you'll have a chance to visit Ushuaia -- the most southern tip of the continent.
Number 2
Casablanca, Morocco
There's something about North Africa; maybe it's the desert, maybe it's the fact that Humphrey Bogart starred in a movie named after the spot... Whatever it is, take a journey to Casablanca and we guarantee that you will find numerous ways to warm up on those cold nights.
Number 1
Bora Bora, French Polynesia
Toping the list of romantic getaways, Bora Bora features a spectacular crystal blue lagoon, white sand beaches and grandiose waterways... what more could you possibly ask for?
We hope these 10 romantic getaways have inspired you in planning your starry-eyed adventure. We guarantee that these places will give you and your special one an incredible time together that will stay in your minds and in your hearts for a lifetime.
