This week we’re in Liverpool – a city so extraordinary it was recently awarded the European Capital City of Culture. There’s so much to see and do here (even if you’re not a Beatles fan). So be a day tripper, come together, because all you need is love…

Daytime

You’ve heard the song – now bring your sea-legs and your date on a ferry across the Mersey. Crossing the expanse of the famous river, you’ll be treated to a unique view of the city and the docks. Sadly we’ve checked and there does not seem to be any yellow submarines available. We recommend the next best thing, the River Explorer Cruise. It provides a 50-minute journey of fascinating historical insight, unlimited sea-air and spectacular views of Liverpool and Merseyside’s UNESCO heritage waterfront. Hop on and off to your heart’s content and discover all of Liverpool’s waterside attractions. Try the Wheel of Liverpool, the iconic Royal Liver building or discuss weird and wonderful art at the Tate Liverpool.

Evening

No bar or restaurant in Liverpool can hold a candle to the Alma De Cuba. This converted Catholic church is a perfect first date venue. Dine on a menu of mixed Cuban, Hispanic and Latin American influence, surrounded by spectacular original architecture. For a relaxed and chilled out date – aim to meet on a Sunday, where you can both be serenaded by a live Gospel choir. However if you’re planning to really let yourselves go- check out Alma De Cuba’s Petal Shower nights. Every Friday and Saturday night the church comes alive with Samba, Salsa and South American carnival spirit.

Something Different…

For a date truly out of this world, try Liverpool’s answer to NASA space-station – Spaceport. Impress your date with your intergalactic knowledge in the Space museum, then wow them with your excellent hand-eye coordination skills in the interactive zone. Blow them away in the hurricane simulator, and witness the power of a vortex. After all that excitement, relax under the stars in the Spaceport’s planetarium- a 360 degree dome.
