Travel Tip: Honeymoon Planning Mistakes to Avoid - as part of the expert series by GeoBeats. Leslie Koch: Well, the honeymoon is basically the biggest adventure and vacation of your life, so it’s easy to make a couple of mistakes when you’re booking the trip. First of all, don’t believe that you have to pay top dollar for a unique travel experience. A lot of travel agents will try to sell you a luxury package that costs over $10,000, and that’s totally not necessary. In fact, you could even book parts of the trip yourself. Second, you need to temper your expectations a bit and just be willing to have a great time. Don’t be too worried about the food or the quality of the tour. It’s all about you and your partner, and if you have a positive attitude it’s going to be a great experience. Third, I would recommend trying a destination that’s a little bit off the track. So, you don’t necessarily have to go to the Caribbean or Europe to have a great time.
