Honeymoon

Greece!

After a day spent soaking in the emotions of our ceremony and reception, we'll hop on a flight to tour the sites of our favorite myths, try new foods and wines, and take in the beautiful landscape, architecture, and culture of the Greek islands. Starting with three days in our own private home in Santorini, we will then make our way to Athens to start an eight-day guided tour of Classical Greece. In Athens, we'll explore Hadrian's Arch, the Temple of Olympian Zeus, the Panathenaic Stadium, the Temple of Athena Nike, the Erechthion, the Parthenon, and the iconic Acropolis. From there, we will visit the Corinth Canal, the Theatre of Epidaurus, the small town of Nafplion, and the Tomb of Agememnon in Mycenae. Then, we will pass through the towns of Tripolis and Megalopolis on our way to Olympia, where we will tour the Sanctuary of Olympian Zeus and the Ancient Stadium of the original Olympic games. From there, we will head across the Corinthian Bay to Delphi, the mythological "navel of the world" and sacred home of the oracle of Apollo. Next, we will spend a night in Kalambaka at the foot of Meteora, where we'll visit a pair of ancient monasteries full of beautiful Byzantine art. Finally, we will head back to Athens on April 28th and fly home on April 29th.
