    If you had an unlimited honeymoon budget, but only 10 days, where would you go?

    We don't have an unlimited budget, but just wanted to get some dream ideas!

    We're going to Hawaii, because that's where FH & I agreed on.

    But if it was solely my choice? Greece. I've wanted to go there since sixth grade.

    Hm the time is limiting because you don't want to lose too much time traveling. If budget was unlimited and I could pay to get ideal flight times, I think I'd go to Europe. Probably Greece, or maybe Italy.

    This is fun - Below are my top 3 trip choices. I don't want to visit all of them in one trip, LOL

    1. Scandanavia; Norway, Sweden, Finland
    2. Turkey and Greece
    3. Spain and Portugal

    More than 1 country in Europe:)

    either that or French Polynesia! It's so expensive there! It's like where they film the Corona commercials...haha.

    With only 10 days, you might have an unlimited budget money-wise, but certainly not time-wise!

    I have always wnted to go to the Galapagos Islands. It is very expensive, and 10 days would work.

    Otherwise, I'd do a cruise and stay in a first class suite on the ship! Cruises rock.

    A Safari in South Africa!  Can we also just be magically transported there instead of fly?

    We're actually doing what's long been my dream honeymoon in June 2011 . . . the Greek Isles!

    French Polynesia... which we did. :) Ten days in Tahiti and Moorea, definitely a once in a lifetime trip - because you can never afford to go there again!

    I would go to iceland, and do a self-drive trip where I stayed in super fancy hotels half the time, and camped out with amazing equipment the other half. And i'd use some of the money to upgrade my camera lenses before I went :-)

    I think I would need more than 10 days but I would go to Paris, London and Italy!  But if it were truly unlimited, I would go to Bora Bora and stay in the private huts over the water.

    We are doing one of our dream locations--South Africa! But I think 10 days isn't enough, since it's practically one whole day just to get there! I would do two countries in Europe, like Greece and Turkey as someone mentioned, or Morocco, or Spain and Portugal, or France and Italy. So many options!

    I think I would probably still do what we're doing! Portugal and France.

    I'd go to the Seychelles or Madagascar. I'd lay around on the beach and eat grapes all day. I'd just be a lazy lazy fat mess and forget all about Brooklyn!

    Maldives... it won't be there in next 50 years (I was told and that's why we are going ;).  For 10 days, I'll do Bali and Maldives... private jet.

    New Zealand...even though I would probably need a sedative to handle the loooong flight.

    If I had an unlimited budget but only 10 days for a honeymoon, I'd want to go somewhere relatively close in order to maximize the time away.  A good honeymoon trip, I think, would be to somewhere like Belize or St. Lucia.  With an unlimited budget, I'd stay in luxurious hotels, take chartered boat rides, snorkel, get nice spa treatments, and eat lots of food.  Oh--and read in a hammock on the beach.

    Bora Bora - for sure. I'd want to stay at the resort they filmed Couples Retreat at - St. Regis Bora Bora - and be in one of the huts :)

    I would want to go on a European Crusie, it goes to several different countries. I've looked at it for an option but I think we will only have money for a mini-moon.

    Otherwise Bora Bora would be awesome too!

    Ooh, it's such fun reading everyone's ideas!  For ten days, I would head down to South America!  As someone suggested, the Galapagos would be amazing!  Otherwise, I'd head to Buenos Aires and then travel through Patagonia to end up in Santiago, Chile.  Amazing.... 

    FI and I are heading to New Zealand for our honeymoon but as I'm now thinking about South America, I'm reconsidering....  :-)

    @deathbydesign - hah! you cannot see "europe" in ten days! - do u know how big europe is?"

    i would go to italy, rome first and then relax near to the coast , so maybe 5 days in each place - u dont want to visit too many places or u will spend your whole honeymoon at the airport or on a plane.
