Travelzoo.com's Top 5 Most Romantic Ways to Pop the Question
From the "top of the world"
Skydive in New Zealand, dine at the top of the Eiffel Tower or
climb 2000 feet to the breathtaking Corcovado statue overlooking
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Getting down on one knee anywhere with a
great view can be magical. If you've seen "Sleepless in
Seattle," you know how romantic confessing your love 102 floors
above New York City on top of the Empire State Building can be.
On the beach at sunset
If you and your sweetheart enjoy the sun, surf and sand, a sunset
walk on the beach might be the perfect place to pull that little
box out of your pocket. Consider an all-inclusive luxury beach
vacation for a pressure-free experience. You won't have to worry
about accommodations, meals, tips or activities, so you'll be
able to focus on the matter at hand. Destinations like the
Caribbean, Mexico and Hawaii are great hotspots for your romantic
winter escape.
Next to a fireplace at a cozy ski lodge
Ask those four words in front of a crackling fire at a mountain
lodge with a glass of champagne or hot chocolate. Or, if you're
a lover of the outdoors, a proposal at a beautiful mountain hot
springs can be unforgettable. Check out destinations like
Colorado, Utah, Vermont, Lake Tahoe, Whistler or the Swiss Alps.
While enjoying a winery picnic
Take a trip to Northern California's Wine Country, where you can
enjoy a romantic vineyard picnic and some of the country's best
known wine tasting. There's nothing like a glass of good
Cabernet to calm your nerves before popping the question.
In a city hotspot
Bundle up and take a carriage ride in New York's Central Park, a
gondola ride in Venice, Italy, a limousine ride down the Las
Vegas Strip or get comfortable in a luxury hotel room overlooking
the water in Chicago. All these cities offer their own unique
settings for your romantic moment, while presenting a multitude
of venues to celebrate your new engagement.
