Back to blog5 Romantic Activities to Do as a Couple for Valentine's Day
Want to break the routine and bring some fun to your relationship for Valentine’s Day or throughout the year? With these 5 romantic activities to do as a couple, we guarantee you something other than the traditional pizza night. And because the flame is maintained, your couple is only a few months old, whether you are celebrating your 1 year of relationship or 10 years of marriage, it is always good to surprise your partner!
Here are our 5 outing ideas for all budgets for romantic activities to do as a couple:
Do a wine tasting
A romantic weekend in the vineyards or a wine tasting for the afternoon are two good ideas to spend some time with your partner. Guided tour of the cellars, wine tastings and why not a fun oenology workshop to learn more are all good activities to do.
Try the Visit experience and tasting at Vignobles Chatonnet for an hour and a half. Start your guided tour with a magnificent view of the vineyards and the castle while listening to the history of the property and the specificities of the appellation. During your visit, you will discover the technical installations of the castle and the cellar so that the production of wines has no more secrets for you. Finally, you will be introduced to the tasting of four wines from the Lalande-de-Pomerol appellation and one wine from the Saint-Émilion appellation. During the tasting, your guide will give you valuable advice.
Take a walk
Walk in nature with a homemade picnic to reunite with the two of you. Take the car and discover the beaten paths, for a romantic drive in the hinterland.
For a perfect picnic, here are the essentials:
- A gingham tablecloth to sit on
- Reusable plates, cups and cutlery (we think of the planet).
- Trash bags to leave the place clean as it was.
- A bottle opener for the good bottle of wine you bought.
- Naturally: to eat and drink!
Take a pottery class
Have you always wanted to create your own objects, but do not have the talent for? The pottery workshops are made for you and it’s even better when there are two of you. There are many benefits to trying your hand at pottery:
- To clear your mind
- To focus on the present moment
- Develop your creativity
- Decrease stress levels
- Create everyday objects: plates, bowls or salad bowls
- Give handmade gifts: with your partner, give each other the pottery you have made at the end of the session.
Go see the Eiffel Tower
Classic, but timeless, the Eiffel Tower remains a symbol of romanticism all over the world. Day or night, going to see the Eiffel Tower is always a strong emotional moment. You can choose to climb the 674 steps (the Tower has 1665 steps to go from the ground to the top of the Tower) then take the elevator and thus have a breathtaking view of all of Paris. You can also take a break on the first floor, there is everything you need to relax before continuing the climb, bar, shop, toilets.
From the top, you can admire:
- The Seine
- the Arc de Triomphe
- The Basilica of the Sacred Heart if the weather is clear
- Our Lady of Paris
- And many more wonders
Little tips: The Eiffel Tower is open until late evening, so you can go there at sunset to discover Paris from an even more exceptional and magical angle.
But it is also possible to discover the Eiffel Tower from the Seine during a organized dinner cruise. In 2h30, aboard a cruise ship, admire the most beautiful monuments of Paris, while enjoying a glass of champagne in the company of the chosen one of your heart. A romantic moment!
