St Valentine’s Day, February 14th, is an opportunity to show loved ones how much you care for them, be it in the form of a bunch of red roses, breakfast in bed, a candlelit dinner or any number of romantic gestures that spring to mind. We have trawled the hidden depths of our imagination, and the worldwide web, to present some suggestions of how to spend this Valentine’s Day in London doting over that special someone…
Lover’s Leap Bungee Jump
Set your partners heart racing this Valentines with a tandem bungee jump from 165 feet! It is the perfect gift packed with excitement that you will both benefit from, and to celebrate, you will be greeted at the end with a half bottle of champagne to share. The Lover’s Leap Valentines bungee jump is a popular Valentines Day gift experience applicable to a range of bungee sites around the UK, including a jump site located near London Bridge, and costs just £97.00.
Wine Tasting at Vinopolis London
What can be more romantic than a wine tasting experience with your partner? At Vinopolis (located near London Bridge) enter the World of Wine tour where you can expect to discover wine cultures from around the world and the origins of the art of winemaking at your own pace. Accompanied by an audio guide (featuring Oz Clarke) and a Vinopolis wine tasting notebook, you will have the opportunity to taste five of the specialist wines as well as a Bombay Sapphire cocktail.
The Vinopolis wine tasting experience costs £33 for two and is suitable for couples of all ages, but participants for wine tasting must be aged 18 or over.
Chocolate Making Classes
Instead of buying your loved one a box of chocolates, why not take them on a course to make your very own Belgian chocolates?! Chocolate making courses, held in Bournemouth and London, are tremendous value, highly professional and educational, and at the end of the two and a half hour course you will take home your batch of 40 – 50 fine Belgian chocolates, all wrapped, designed and made by you.
London Eye Champagne Flight
This is the perfect Valentines treat to romance and impress a loved one! The great value London Eye Champagne flight is ideal for couples as well as small groups, and includes fast track entrance, priority boarding, a glass of Laurent-Perrier Champagne per person and a souvenir guidebook (but does not include your own capsule). Booking early is essential to avoid disappointment and the special price of £34 is applicable to London Eye Champagne Flights before 6pm. A non-alcoholic alternative to Champagne is also available on the London Eye Champagne flight and children are given an in flight kids pack containing a mini guide and Eye spy binoculars.
