What We Left Out

We intentionally skipped these popular options:

✗Party boat cruises — 50 people, loud music, not romantic at all
✗Overcrowded Oia restaurants — Tourist traps with mediocre food and inflated prices
✗Rush-hour volcano tours — Crammed boats with 200 people all going to the same spots
✗Generic "romantic" packages — Rose petals and champagne don't make up for poor planning
