Useful Tips To Help You Plan A Romantic Break In London For Your Lady

As a cultured gentleman, you might already know a little about the great city of London. If you are hoping to surprise your special lady with a trip, you might want to choose this city. There are many romantic things you can do in the area, and so you and your girlfriend will never tire of it. While the city is full of tourists, they are all there for a good reason.

The best way to enjoy your weekend break in London is with solid accommodation, theatre tickets, top meals, and special tour to visit the city’s top attractions. TripAdvisor lists many companies that can handle this but another one especially worthwhile to check is London Theatre Breaks. One reason I suggest them over others is that you can even obtain a membership for the famous Phoenix Artists Club under the Phoenix Theatre where you can take your lady to a pre theatre dinner or a post theatre drink. The membership is exclusively free to London Theatre Breaks guests.

Book a hotel

New fads like apartment rentals can be chaotic and expensive, especially in the center of a capital city. Rather than renting someone else’s apartment, you may want to stick to hotels for the most consistent results with a private place for you and your lady. There are loads of London hotels that you can book up for a short period. If you want to enjoy your getaway, this tip might make all the difference. Look for a hotel with a view over the city so that the two of you can spend an evening gazing at the skyline.

Travel by rickshaw

Of course, the easiest way to travel around London is by underground. The underground system in the city is one of the best and most efficient in the entire world. What if you want to try something different? If you walk the streets of London, you will see plenty of people peddling rickshaws around the area. You can flag a rickshaw down, just as you would a taxi, and ask them for a ride. Because the bike is much slower than a cab or train, you and your partner will get a chance to enjoy the sights around you.

Eat dinner in the dark

Dans Le Noir is one of the few restaurants in the world that offer a dining experience in the dark. If you want to have a romantic meal with a difference, this could be the restaurant for you. When you first visit the venue, you can sit in a lit area and enjoy a drink while you wait. Then, the waiter will take you through to a room with no light at all, where you can order and enjoy a freshly cooked meal. This is an experience like no other.

Take a boat up the river

Most people enjoy walking along the riverside, but you might want to take things one step further than that. At various points up the river, there are places where you can book boat trips and even hire a boat for just the two of you. If the weather is nice at the time, this activity can be a lot of fun. The river passes many of the main tourists points, and so you can enjoy them from a distance.

Have champagne on a rooftop

Rooftop bars have become popular across Europe over the last couple of years. In fact, there are now quite a few bars opening up in and around London that you might want to try. Can you picture yourself sipping champagne on the rooftop while looking out onto the streets? Have a look at some of the best rooftop bars in the city before you get there. You can surprise your girlfriend with a night she will never want to forget.

Taking a trip with someone who you care about is always a great way to spend some time. If you want to show your partner how much she means to you, there is no better way to do so than to whisk her away for a spur of the moment getaway.
