9/10Overall

One of the best value-for-experience honeymoons in Europe. Island-hopping by ferry through the Aegean, caldera sunsets, walkable towns, exceptional food. 227 inhabited islands give you variety no single-destination honeymoon can match.

Portugal · Europe

8.5/10Overall

Best-value luxury in Western Europe. Lisbon cobblestone charm, Algarve sea caves and golden cliffs, Douro Valley wine terraces, and a food scene where a serious dinner for two with wine rarely exceeds $60.
