According to Pop Sugar, most royal honeymoons are not as fancy as you think. Over the years, they opted for a relatively low-key trip after their wedding day.

Here's a look at some of the honeymoon places chosen by the royal couples.

1. Queen Victoria and Prince Albert

The royal couple spent their honeymoon at Windsor Castle for just three days because the young queen didn't want to miss her duties.
