Show him how much he means to you on this special occasion with the top experiences chosen by our in-house experts.
These handpicked adventures are tried and tested by hundreds of gift-givers like you who’ve shared their honest reviews to help you decide. Read, shop and surprise your partner with what you think your partner will love.
Top Driving Experiences
Treat your husband to an adrenaline-pumping Valentine’s Day gift with the top driving experiences available on Red Letter Days. Perfect for thrill-seekers and car enthusiasts, these experiences promise unforgettable moments behind the wheel of some of the world’s most iconic vehicles.
If he’s a fan of speed, a supercar driving experience is the ultimate choice. Let him take control of legendary marques like Ferrari, Lamborghini, or Aston Martin on a professional track. He’ll feel the rush of high-performance engineering as he navigates corners and accelerates down straights. For something unique, consider a rally driving day, where he can master the art of drifting and power slides on off-road terrain. It’s the perfect opportunity to unleash his inner rally champion.
Is he a sucker for classic cars? A vintage car driving experience allows him to get behind the wheel of timeless beauties like the Jaguar E-Type or AC Cobra, reliving the golden era of motoring. For Formula 1 enthusiasts, a single-seater experience offers the chance to channel his inner Lewis Hamilton, feeling the raw power and precision of a race car.
Best Outdoor Adventures
For adrenaline seekers, a skydiving experience at iFLY offers the rush of freefall in a safe, controlled indoor environment, simulating the thrill of jumping from a plane without the need to leap from great heights. A tactical flying lesson adds another layer of excitement, combining stunning aerial views with the unforgettable experience of piloting an aircraft under expert guidance.
Zip-lining and treetop challenges at Go Ape deliver high-energy fun for those who enjoy active pursuits. Your husband can navigate a series of obstacles high above the forest floor, testing his balance and bravery as he zips through the trees on thrilling wire courses. If he prefers honing his skills, consider archery or clay pigeon shooting sessions. These experiences combine focus and precision, offering a day of friendly competition and entertainment.
If you’re in search of a more relaxed adventure, a countryside escape is ideal. Exploring scenic trails provides the opportunity to enjoy nature together, creating lasting memories without the need for high-speed thrills. Each of these outdoor adventures is designed to suit different interests, making Valentine’s Day truly unforgettable.
Relaxing Date Ideas
A spa day at Bannatyne Spa offers a serene escape with access to saunas, steam rooms, and swimming pools. Treat yourselves to a rejuvenating massage or facial, then unwind in the tranquil relaxation lounge. For a truly unique experience, the Lush Spa delivers a sensory journey with bespoke treatments inspired by music, storytelling, and natural ingredients, ensuring a one-of-a-kind way to de-stress.
After a day of pampering, elevate the romance with an intimate dinner at a world-class restaurant. Gordon Ramsay’s fine dining establishments promise unforgettable meals crafted with precision and creativity, paired with exceptional service. Choose from tasting menus, classic dishes, and sophisticated wine pairings in a luxurious atmosphere. Alternatively, experience the culinary brilliance of Marco Pierre White. His restaurants offer a relaxed yet elegant setting, perfect for savouring hearty, flavourful dishes prepared with the finest ingredients.
Whether you choose spa bliss, gourmet dining, or both, these ideas are designed to create meaningful moments you and your husband will cherish forever.
Unique Intimate Gifts
Comedy shows are an excellent choice for a light-hearted evening filled with laughter. Whether it’s an intimate comedy club or a high-profile stand-up performance, these experiences provide a perfect way to enjoy quality time together while sharing a memorable laugh.
For the adventurous husband, a tank driving experience is an exhilarating option. Climb aboard a real tank, learn to navigate the controls, and take on off-road tracks designed for thrilling challenges. It’s a truly unique gift that offers a sense of adventure like no other.
Food lovers will relish a private steak dinner. Imagine an elegant setting where you enjoy premium cuts of steak expertly prepared to perfection. Paired with fine wine or cocktails, this intimate dining experience promises to impress and create lasting memories.
For sports enthusiasts, stadium tours offer a behind-the-scenes look at iconic venues. Walk through the players’ tunnel, explore the locker rooms, and stand pitch-side at your husband’s favourite team’s grounds. These tours combine history and excitement, making them a dream come true for any fan.
