Luxury European Honeymoon Review: Greece, Turkey, Mykonos, Istanbul, Santorini Black Sand Beach, Paros Clay Spa, Cooking Class

Overall, I really enjoyed working with this Greece travel company. They were incredibly responsive and super helpful when it came to answering all of my (many!) questions. It felt very comforting to know they were just an email or phone call away in the event we needed anything, both prior to our trip and once we departed.

They provided us with some very helpful tips. For example, my husband and I were questioning if it really made sense to spend the extra money on private transportation to and from the airport as opposed to flagging down a cab. We are from New York so this is second nature to us! The agent we were working with provided us with some strong feedback and encouraged us to splurge on the private transport due to the difficulty and issues we could potentially face without having a reserved car waiting for us upon arrival.

At the same time, I think there were a couple of things here and there that would have been helpful to know. For example, our first stop of the trip was Mykonos, where we learned quickly that there are only about ~40 taxis on the entire island. If we knew this piece of information ahead of time, we would have reserved a rental car or motorbike. Instead, we spent $50-$100 dollars on each VERY SHORT cab ride. Major party fowl.

Our Greece travel agent did a unbelievable job of building our itinerary. It worked out very well as each island we visited in Greece got progressively better and better! Great planning!

My only other comment would be that it would have been nice to see an itemized breakdown of expenses. To be honest, I do not recall if I requested this at any point but it would have been helpful as when I did the calculations in my head and looked up some of the hotels online, it seems we paid a bit more than what was advertised... Unsure where the additional funds went (aside from the very reasonable service fee we paid to the travel company).

Lastly, I think it would have been nice for our travel agent to alert our hotels that it was our honeymoon. Or maybe they did, but none of our hotels really acknowledged it, which would have been nice.

All and all, a great trip and a very pleasant experience.
