London is a bustling city that has so much to offer if you know where to look. Of course, there are the usual sights that people want to see when visiting London such as Buckingham Palace and the London Eye, however if you are on a romantic break in London then thinking outside the box can be the difference between a fantastic weekend and a very ordinary one. Here are some unique romantic break ideas whilst in London.
Romance on the Thames in London
Many people may have looked into having dinner on a boat on the Thames, which is a truly romantic idea and is bound to have your partner leaping into your arms in thanks. However, for a different adventure on this London River what about a tour on a high-speed boat? The thrill will have your lover clinging onto you with exhilaration much like that of new lust and when stepping off the boat, legs like jelly, it will feel like falling in love with each other all over again.
Flowers for the loved one in Kew Gardens, London
Instead of buying your partner a solitary single rose in London, why not show them hundreds of different stunning flowers instead at Kew Gardens? Take a stroll around this beautiful place and even feed the ducks together. If you want to put on a truly romantic show then take your partner in the beginning of Spring to see over 100,000 daffodils in blossom, which is something neither of you will forget in a hurry.

With a ton of different parks in London, it can be difficult to decide which one would be the best to visit and will have the most romantic things to do. Take a trip to Richmond where you can ride a horse through this beautiful park, as long as you can ride a horse, of course.
This is a truly unique idea and reminiscent of many classic romance novels written in Britain. If your partner is not a fan of horses then take a posh British picnic of cucumber sandwiches and strawberries to enjoy while you are there instead.
