Historical Walking Tour
Take your partner on a self-guided historical walking tour around your city's landmarks. It's a great opportunity to spend time together while learning about your city's historic sites. It's an enriching and affordable date.
- Start with researching historical landmarks in your city online. Choose a few that are close to each other and create a walking route. On the day, visit these landmarks, exploring their significance and history together. Make it fun and interactive too with trivia games about the landmarks. End the day at a small, local cafe, reflecting on what you learnt, sharing photos and admiring the beauty of your city's past.
- This is a great way to stimulate conversation and deepen your relationship. It can also be a fun and engaging journey into the past, stirring an appreciation for your city and its contributions.
- Remember, it's an outdoor activity; dress comfortably and wear proper walking shoes.
Preparation steps:
- Research and create your historical route. Identify essential landmarks and memorise fun facts about them to share during the tour. You can also prepare a small picnic bag with sandwiches or finger food that you can enjoy at a local park.
- Check weather forecast. Plan your date on a good-weather day, ensure you're dressed appropriately for the weather and take along water and SPF if it's sunny.
- Ensure your phone is charged for taking photos and using the map, or if youโre feeling old school, get a paper map of the city.

Some tips:
- Don't be rushed. The beauty of a self-guided tour is that you can take your time and soak in the atmosphere of each landmark, experience the architecture and history.
- If you are planning to have a picnic, check ahead if public parks around those landmarks allow it. And clean up afterwards.
- Try to start your tour early in the day when it's cooler and quieter, you'll have a more enjoyable time.
