According to CNN anyways, but I find it strange Thailand isn't on the list as it's a huge destination and certainly romantic.

I had my honeymoon in Switzerland - it was great.

The food wasn't up to much though compared with France, Italy, or the U.K.

Must be a quiet day at CNN, trawling up a year-old article as "news", conveniently "losing" one of the list along the way.

And it's not exactly a glowing reference, is it?

	1. Switzerland Straight-laced Switzerland might not be a sultry or exotic destination, but honeymooning couples shouldn't need much extra romantic inspiration. Switzerland is stunningly beautiful, safe and orderly. Couples can simply enjoy each other -- which is really the whole point of the trip.

As Douglas Adams would have said, albeit rather more concisely, "Mostly harmless."

The best place no doubt. Lovely place.

Cheers,

I suppose it's ideal if neither the bride nor the groom are screamers and don't yodel after 10pm.

Seriously, I don't know that Switzerland would have ever entered my head for the idea of a Honeymoon. Then again, I eloped to LV, married Elvis in the drive-thru and got loaded on the best bloodies I've ever had....so maybe my future isn't as a wedding planner.

I think it depends on where you come from. For me Switzerland wouldnt be exotic enough...
