ATHENS
Your honeymoon adventure begins in Athens, the city where past and present intersect with vibrant energy. Arrive and settle into the rhythm of this ancient city with a leisurely evening. Perhaps start with a romantic dinner overlooking the city from Lycabettus Hill, where the panorama stretches from the sparkling Aegean Sea to the shadow of the Acropolis. The following day, immerse yourselves in history with a guided tour of the Acropolis, where stories of gods and heroes echo through the marbled ruins. As the sun sets, stroll hand in hand through the Plaka’s labyrinthine streets, enjoying the quaint shops and local eateries, soaking up the Athenian ambiance under the glow of the Parthenon.
MYKONOS
Transition from the historic charms of Athens to the sun-kissed beaches of Mykonos. This island blends its cosmopolitan flair with traditional Greek charm seamlessly. Upon arrival, breathe in the salty air and let the rhythm of the Aegean set a leisurely pace. Spend your days exploring the island’s iconic features from its windmills to the idyllic Little Venice, where colorful balconies hang over the sea. Embrace the island life with a sailing cruise, discovering hidden coves and snorkeling in crystal-clear waters. As night falls, experience Mykonos’ renowned nightlife with a cocktail at a beachfront bar, dancing beneath the stars.
SANTORINI
Santorini awaits with its stunning vistas and romantic sunsets, often touted as the best in the world. Check into a cliffside hotel where your room opens up to views of the caldera—a perfect spot for morning coffees and evening toasts. Wander the cobblestone streets of Oia, snapping photos of the famous blue-domed churches as you meander through this picturesque village. Join a culinary walking tour to taste the island’s volcanic wines and fresh, sun-kissed produce. Opt for a leisurely hike along the caldera edge from Fira to Oia, where every turn offers a postcard-worthy view. Consider a sunset catamaran cruise, basking in the golden glow as you sail the azure waters.

Arrive in Chania, where a tapestry of Venetian, Ottoman, and Greek history colors the Old Town. Explore the romantic alleys lined with bougainvillea and open-air cafes. Venture out to the Balos Lagoon, where you can swim in the vibrant turquoise waters or sunbathe on pink sand beaches.
