Get creative on the day of lovers!

This year, surprise your partner with an activity that both of you are going to remember for a long time, such as a romantic weekend getaway. Lacking ideas? Let us help! 

Wherever you are in the journey of your relationship, all activities that you do together will bring you closer to each other. Here’s a few tips that will most likely make your partner break into a smile.

Ship out together

Have you ever been drawn to the idea of having a fancy dinner on a boat while cruising down the Danube, under the city lights? Now you may get to try it out with Mahart’s thematic boat trip dubbed Romance on the Danube, departing on 14 February 2025 at 5 and 8 PM. After boarding, you will be invited to enjoy snack plates, taste wines, listen to soft music and see the sights of Budapest from the river. Places are limited. Make a reservation now!

Following the trail of light on a rendezvous

You cannot go wrong with mystical lights when on a date. Consider organising your time together on Valentine's Day around the theme of light! Several locations in Budapest offer relevant activities, such as the Light Art Museum, the Garden of Lights, the Cinema Mystica or the Lumina Park

Go skating and hold hands

Take advantage of the fact that quite a few skating rinks are still open in the capital and around the country, and seal the day together on the ice. Whether you are real pros or just muddling through together, this will surely be a memorable day, with lots of laughter and hot drinks.

Explore the secrets of the city

Get up close and personal with the city by walking – and, along the way, with your partner too. Countless thematic city walks are available for you to choose. Be prepared for the February cold, and perhaps even some cuddling to warm yourselves! Find a topic that your partner will like, be it history, gastronomy, art, literature or anything else, for a great adventure that will reveal a face of the city you may have never seen. 

A toast at sunset

If your time is limited, celebrate Valentine's Day with a toast at a beautiful spot. Discover and book a table at a romantic rooftop bar with a majestic view. It would be best to get there by sunset. Have a relaxed chat over drinks, forget about your phones and take your time listening to each other. Even if Valentine's Day is over, this could be a perfect follow-up for the weekend after.
