Are you thinking about a romantic getaway and have you chosen London?
In this post we give you a thousand ideas of plans and things you can do on your trip to London as a couple, from romantic plans to plans to take advantage of if you come with your better half to visit this famous European capital.
1. ROMANTIC DINNER AT A RESTAURANT. A classic, obviously, but there are thousands of great places to dine and take your date. However, many require a reservation in advance, so remember to plan your evening in advance to ensure success.
Do you want some original ideas to impress?
- Clos Magiore, one of the most romantic restaurants in London, in Covent Garden, beautiful decoration, candles and good food.
- Ave Mario, or any restaurant in the Big Mamma chain, are perfect for winning over your loved one's stomach with delicious Italian food and original cocktails.
- Sushi Samba, sushi restaurant in the heights.
- In the Black. If you have seen the film “About time”, you will be familiar with it. A restaurant where you eat in complete darkness. A sensory experience, ideal for enjoying with your partner.
2. WATCH A MUSICAL. This plan can always be done, but in this case it is the ideal one. Have a romantic dinner, watch a musical and go for a cocktail afterwards. You can end your evening by strolling at night in front of Big Ben and you already have the ideal date.
Remember that there are several places where you can get tickets for musicals in London at good prices, such as BoxOffice or TodayTixx.
You have many romantic works that will rekindle the flame of the date, such as The Lion King, Hello Dolly, Mamma Mia, The Phantom of the Opera, Anna and the King, or even Cabaret.
3. CANDELIGHT CONCERTS. Concerts lit by hundreds of candles. If this isn't the ideal plan, it's because we don't know anything about successful dates. There are several, and in fact, they are becoming more and more popular. If instead of musicals you want a romantic concert for your evening, this is a great idea. You can find everything from concerts with movie soundtracks to concerts with songs adapted from artists like Coldplay or Taylor Swift. If you find out what your date's favorite movie or singer is and give them this concert, they might declare their eternal love for you at the end of the date, we warn you.
4. SUNSET WALK. London has some of the best sunsets. You can book an hour at Sky Garden, walk from St. Paul's, have a snack at Borough Market (strawberries with chocolate) and finish by watching the sunset from one of the highest places in London.
You can also choose to stroll through Camden and end the day watching the sunset from Primrose Hill, a small park with an ideal hill, overlooking London. A very romantic place to watch the night fall.
5. NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM. Some museums have special plans for a certain night. It is the perfect plan to visit a museum in an original way and help you bring up interesting topics on your date. You make sure that, whether it is successful or not, they will remember it fondly.
6. ROYAL OBSERVATORY FOR STAR SIGHTING. If there's anything romantic, it's stars and planets, so if you're not into theatre or concerts or if you want to play it safe and do something different, you can buy your tickets to the Royal Observatory in Greenwich. A truly romantic experience. Remember to tell your date that we're a speck of dust in the universe and that tonight won't be repeated (Should I write a post with quotes to get a good date?).
7. THAMES RIVER CRUISE. In fact, you could do this right after finishing the previous plan. From Greenwich to Westminster with a cruise on the River Thames, passing by Tower Bridge. Save yourself a movie-worthy kiss when you arrive in front of Big Ben. Your date is going to become a filmmaker so he can tell the story of the evening in a film.
You can book a cruise or travel with an Uberboat, a service that is considered public transportation.
8. LONDON EYE. I don't know if you knew that you can book a capsule of the London Eye for yourselves, with cava and chocolate truffles. We'll just tell you that the plan is called "Cupid's Capsule". If Shakespeare had known about this, Romeo would have declared his love to Juliet in a capsule of the London Eye.
9. GO TO A JUMPING PARK. If you like adrenaline and strong emotions, book a day at Gripped London. A park with up to 6 types of challenges for jumping into the void with a harness. Show your date that you are not afraid of anything, but make sure that they are as into adrenaline as you are.
10. BIKE RIDE AND PICNIC. There is perhaps no better sign of affection than cooking for your loved one. Prepare a bag of food (or buy it, it's the thought that matters). You can rent two Santander bikes if you don't have your own, ride your bike through Hyde Park and then sit down to enjoy a picnic. If you plan your romantic trip in the summer, you can watch the sunset and cuddle up on the grass until well after 10pm. You're welcome.
11. ROMANTIC PHOTO SHOOT. If you fancy having a photo shoot with your partner and visiting your favourite spot in London, we can help you with this.
