Don’t forget to take with you a cool box stuffed with lots of snacks and drinks. Of course, take lots of photos of the trip.

• Hit the Karaoke Bar
  Unleash the singer in you and belt out your favourite songs. Happily in love? Sing! Resentfully single? Sing! No matter how great or terrible of a singer your companion is, hitting the Karaoke bar will surely put a smile on your face this Valentine’s Day.
