10 best couple getaways if on a budget
Want to get away on a romantic trip for two, but your funds are limited? Don’t worry. There are still great places you can visit even on a tight budget. All it takes is planning, research and creativity.

Instead, a weekend jaunt to a local winery in the Napa Valley region may be more affordable for you. However, that might be one wine tasting that’s too expensive for a couple from Florida to enjoy. The good news is that there are wineries all over the United States including New York, and Michigan, so you might be able to find one close to you.
