Just the kind of insight I was looking for. We have traveled 13-15 weeks at a stretch--but always just us. We tend to be pretty independent.

I agree, separate spaces will be a must with perhaps even a few times when we go separate ways for a few days and then meet back up and share experiences and photos.
There are some things that we can whole heartedly say---"Don't miss out on this or that"--but it doesn't mean we want to do it a second or third time. On the other hand, we can be a good resource as to what is available to do and see in any given area. We would be more than happy to make suggestions and recommendations---as we can always discover something else new to do on our "free" time.
We look forward to sharing some of our favorite spots, but we want each couple to feel free to say "No" to going out to eat, sharing a meal, or visiting a specific attraction with no explanations needed and no hurt feelings. To each their own.
More than anything else, I want to be sure we are still friends when we get home.
