Where does she like? Where have you already been? Look g for romantic and quiet or stuff to do to avoid long periods of silence?

Not sure cruises are all inclusive unless you buy a very expensive drinks package...

Anovibe from Anne Summers are pretty good.

However avoid their own brand lube, it's not that good.

Personally I would try the Uberkinky website, better stuff at a decent price.

I can guarantee they would suprise the fuck out of her.

Thread title is so tempting

What time of year are you celebrating, just think that depending on that there could be some great events to visit also?

Agree on Santorini or Lake Garda. Some very nice places in South of France.

But don't forget there are some beautiful places in the UK with no hassle of flying etc.

What time of the year do you want to go? Santorini is saturated with people during high season.

Had a week all inclusive in Daios Cove, Crete earlier this summer - was excellent.

Santorini is lovely but it's tiny, if you're happy sitting on a (black / volcanic) beach or round the pool then it's ideal; if you want to actually do something then the other Greece islands are better.

If it's a romantic week I wouldn't go all inclusive, go somewhere with lots of lovely bars & restaurants with a bit of history, nice architecture and views where you go out into the town for dinner and have a stroll around taking in a few bars and then dinner etc....

Somewhere on the Amalfi coast perhaps?

TUi do all inclusive but you'll be sharing your cruise with the type of adult that thinks a Celtic top is fashion.

As for drinks, we've recently been on a P&O cruise. Food was awesome and included. Drinks were the only exclusion. Drinks were normal pub prices circa £4 /pint, £3.85 spirit and mixer. This may sound a lot but there was plenty of choice and it was premium drinks instead of the 2% local pi55 that TUi provide.

On therses cruises, you tend to get an onboard credit to your account. We had £400 so that covered the first week lol.

I can highly recommend Mykonos.

Some very high quality hotels and very good restaurants and bars. Very pretty town as well.

Very expensive by Greek standards (to be honest any standards) but for your 25th Wedding anniversary and for a week well worth it.

Edinburgh is nice for a visit , although 7 days may be a little too much as once you have done the Castle , Mary Kings Close , The Vaults and a bit of shopping you may struggle to fill your remaining days unless you want to travel out with the city looking for other things to do.

The Principle Hotel on George street is nice as is the Dome for a drink or a meal if you are feeling flush.
