Who says you have to get out of town to be a tourist? This date idea is perfect for couples who can’t take a vacation, but who want to spend some quality time improving their relationship.
With this date idea, let your city surprise you this weekend!
There are many ways to make this date idea a success. First, experience the sights, tastes, and sounds that your city is known for. Make a list of the biggest tourist attractions in your hometown and complete as many on the list as you and your beau can do in one day. If you live in a big city, pick a new neighborhood to explore. Does this area have a walking tour, a museum, or any historical or famous spots to visit? Afterward, head to a popular spot for lunch. If you’re lucky, maybe a local band will be playing. You’ll be surprised by how much goes on right under your nose!
