Plan your own tripQuestions about Romance trips
What is a Romance trip?
Two people, one unhurried evening at a time. Slow starts, quiet corners and one evening that is the point of the trip. The feeling word for it is "Cherish". It describes how the trip is meant to feel, not a promise about how you will feel.
What does Archie aim for on a Romance trip?
slow mornings, quiet evenings, one special dinner, easy pace. Some of this, like the pace, one big thing a day and open afternoons, changes which places are picked. The rest is guidance for the planner, not a guarantee.
Which places have a Romance itinerary?
Venice, Santorini, Charleston, Budapest, Dubrovnik, Paris, Rome, Edinburgh, Amalfi Coast, Quebec City, Seville, Hakone, Rhine and Moselle, San Miguel de Allende, Sintra, Salzburg, Cesky Krumlov, Reykjavik, Hoi An, Chiang Mai, Santa Fe, Bar Harbor, Savannah, Finger Lakes, Kailua-Kona, Palm Springs, Key West, Sturgeon Bay, Interlaken and Siena. Each one has a day-by-day plan, a map with the route and the best months to go from real weather.
Can I plan my own Romance trip somewhere else?
Yes. Tell Archie where you want to go and how you want it to feel. Archie leans the plan that way, and you can change any day.
How a trip idea works
Each trip idea is a short itinerary: a few places a day that sit close together, in the order that saves walking, with an estimate of the time between stops. Open one to see it on a map and to see the best months to go, worked out from average weather. Then plan your own dates in the Archie app.
