    For me it either would be Venice, Italy or Santorini, Greece :smile:

    We honeymooned in Italy last May. LOTS of walking around Rome - did tours of the Colosseum etc, and loved it. We never wished we had a car, and our travel agent booked us black car transfers to/from their airports, so that was painless. We booked day trips to the coast (Portofino) and Pompeii, and took the train to Florence for the second half of the trip (super easy and a beautiful ride), and got in lots more walking, museums, and good food there. We also did a tour of wine country because we love sampling local wine at home. We did a train day trip to Cinque Terre, but I have friends who honeymooned just there and hiked between the various towns that make up that part of the coast. It's apparently a lovely series of hikes. And the seafood is out of this world.
    Our travel agent made it so painless, and set us up in hotels we otherwise would not have been able to afford. In turn, those hotels recommended AMAZING places to eat. And there were no fees, so I can now highly recommend using an agent for large-scale, important trips like this.

    That sounds like an AMAZING trip! We have actually found and starting working with a travel agent so I hope ours will be as good as yours was! We have already determined Italy doesn't fit easily into our budget- but maybe for 15 or 20 year Anniversary? :smiley:
