“Honeymoons are evolving into more than just relaxing on a beach,” says travel counsellor, Sarah Roberts. “In the last twelve months, an increasing number of couples have been approaching us looking for far-flung active adventures with multi-centre, touring and ‘flashpacker’ vibes,” she continues. Sarah has seen a huge rise in demand for honeymoons in Asia, due to the exceptional value for money it offers, as well as its agreeable year-round climate. 

Matching long haul adventuring with our eco responsibilities can be difficult, but Travel Counsellors’ operator in Asia, EXO Travel, has been offsetting carbon from flights to their destinations for some time. Starting in 2020, they’re now able to calculate the average carbon footprint for each itinerary, offering you the opportunity to offset your entire trip for a small additional cost of $1.50 per person per day. This money goes towards supporting a range of projects that positively impact the climate along with tree planting programmes across the whole continent.
