Most people have found romance taking the back seat in their trip possibly because they are busy planning their trip, sticking to a budget, or are unfamiliar with the place.

You can easily spice up your trip after your working days with inexpensive and unique ways of adding more romance. Here are activities that can make your trip more romantic.
Avoid the Crowds as Much As Possible
The truth is that most of the “so-called” romantic places in the world aren’t as romantic as they appear in movies or photographs. For instance, the Eiffel Tower is never as quiet as it normally appears to be in a photograph. You would never think of having a romantic experience at the foot of the tower, where there are lots of pushy and noisy tourists taking pictures.
But if you want to make your trip more romantic, look beyond paying high entrance fees and joining a boring queue. Try look-out for solitary places, they offer more romantic experiences. For example, Hobart, Tasmania is known for their romantic getaway hotels which provides you with a peaceful and a serene environment to enjoy some quality time with your partner. Additionally, these hotels in Hobart are known for their fine dining experience. Something to satiate that connoisseur nature of yours and your partner which you’ve never explored before during your busy work schedules.

So, if you want a more romantic trip, consider less-known places or schedule your romantic trip during an early-morning weekday to those famous places that attract crowds.
Book a Self-Catered Apartment
To enjoy a more romantic trip, book a self-catered apartment.

Plan a Suitcase Surprise
Another less expensive but significant way to make your trip more romantic is to plan a suitcase surprise. How do you go about this? Buy an item that your partner would surely use during your trip together. Then hide that item in your partner’s suitcase and let him or her discover the item while unloading. You don’t need to be too practical, simply get your partner items like candy, spectacle, guidebooks, a new sweater, or a novel by favourite authors. Socks, tweezers, and deodorant may not be good enough.
It is important to note that the TSA’s airport security rules for gels and liquid still hold. So, when planning your romantic surprise, you may need to think twice before you put that bottle of champagne into your partner’s suitcase.
