The Great Tate Date for some Culture Vulture Romance!
Expense: £-£££
Best Time to Go: Mid-Morning to Mid-Afternoon.
Arrive at Tate Britain for phase one of your culture vulture romancing. Tate now provides themed pamphlets that will lead you directly to artwork to get you in the mood for multiple doey-eyed moments. This means you will avoid the usual art gallery fatigue that usually hits us all when overloaded with so much artistic ocular candy!
Onto Phase Two. Leave Tate Britain and head to the Tate To Tate Boat where starting from as little as £2.85 you can hop on a boat and head up to Tate Modern, taking in the sights of Houses of Parliament, London Eye, South Bank and Tower Bridge along the way. While on board you can have a little tipple and toast the stunning views while secretly shrieking inside at how well the date is going so far and how cool you appear to be!
Hop off at Tate Modern for Phase Three. If you are artistically pooped by this point you can head straight to one of the cafes or restaurants in the Tate and take in the view. Alternatively, take a stroll along the South Bank or across the bridge to St. Paul’s Cathedral.
Top tip…If you go in the summertime on a scorcher of a day, it’s worth stopping outside the Hayward Gallery and playing in the fountain! But only for the spontaneous, carefree types…if you’re jimmy chooed up and your face has been sponsored by MAC, you won’t want to end up looking like a drowned pantomime dame over late afternoon cocktails.

this peaks my happy-o-meter everytime, for romance, with the family or with friends. total winner!
