My spouse and I wanted to go on a second honeymoon, which we humorously called our "honeymoon in old age." Along the way, we met wonderful, kind-hearted people, saw beautiful places, and enjoyed delicious meals. The hotels were always comfortable and cozy. We were just as happy and excited on the last day of the tour as we were on the first. Thank you so much for everything!
This was a trip of a lifetime! Every turn on this trip was like a page in my old geography/history books. The food was exceptional throughout the trip. Our tour guide, Savvos, was the best! It is evident he loves his job. However, the activity level of this trip needs to be rated higher, in my opinion. I understand that the nature of the islands means more walking and climbing because of where most attractions were located, but I believe the activity level should be 4 or 5 as a result. I will scrutinize all trips in the future.
