These are activities and romantic Valentine's Day ideas that you don't just have to do on Valentine's Day, but that you can surprise your loved one with any time of the year- a romantic twist to a normal day to show that special person how much you care!

Cape Town Romantic Cruise

Why not take that special someone on a sunset cruise? It's something totally out of the ordinary and your partner would give you a big kiss for this original romantic idea!

Cape Town Helicopter Flip

Being surprised by something as extraordinary as a scenic helicopter flip makes this a romantic idea that will last forever in your loved one's memory. Who could ever forget being taken for a ride in a helicopter and being able to admire the Mother City and its surrounds from the sky!

There are three different trips to suit each person's budget. The 12 - 15 minutes Scenic flip is only R500 per person and takes you over the V&A Waterfront, Clifton, Camps Bay, Table Mountain, the City Bowl, and back to the Waterfront again.

Cape Town Limo Hire

Get ready for some admiring glances as you sweep the keeper of your heart off his or her feet! It might not be as thrilling as a flip 10 000 feet above the ground, but it offers a couple romantic transportation on another level.

This is the ultimate in luxury transportation, where you get chauffeur-driven around the Cape, with ice-cold champers in the mini fridge and romantic music playing in the background. Just don't forget the camera to capture the smile on your partner's face as the chauffeur opens the door- revealing the interior of the sleek limo!

Cape Winelands Tour

For those who prefer a romantic idea that's a bit more relaxed- a delightful Winelands tour might just be the thing! This one is ideal for those of you who enjoy the rich aroma and tantalizing taste of locally produced award-winning wines.

There is a range of different Winelands tours available for guests. Tours are priced accordingly.

Cape Town Picnics Galore

Sometimes it's best to do something intimate, where it's only the two of you surrounded by your love, age-old trees, and lush green gardens. A picnic is the perfect romantic idea if you are looking for something easy and affordable to do.

There are quite a few stunning picnic areas in and around Cape Town, such as Kirstenbosch Gardens. However these aren't necessarily limited to botanical gardens.
