Get primal and throw axes

Picture
You read that sentence right, there’s a place in Auckland’s CBD that’ll let you release some tension while enjoying time with your loved one. You’ll be taught by one of their axe-perts how to throw an axe like a champion all the while being entertained by their witty banter.  They even have a valentine’s day special where you can book a private lane for 45 minutes for you and your partner for only $180. Each lane has its own designated area in the venue so you’ll be socially distanced from any other group inside plus the extra large garage doors at the entry are always open for a boost of excellent air flow!

Price: $180 for 45 minute private lane hire for 2

​Get your game on at Game Over! Just a wee ride up Highway 1, you’ll find yourself at the ultimate fun spot with go-karting, mini golf, laser tag, and more. A romantic getaway for two or bring your whole crew in for some “lols”, Game Over is great as something a little alternative for  this Valentine’s Day. Being Open during red means that they’re taking extra measures to ensure all guests are kept safe during their experience including mask wearing and regular sanitation to keep things clean.  

Price: $69pp for their Adult “All experience”

Ride my pony- no digidy!

(C) Ti Tree Hills 2022
Is there anything more romantic than a horse back riding journey? The folks at Ti Tree Hills don’t think so! Offering guided tours,( including a special “engagement tour” for those perhaps contemplating something extra special for Valentine’s Day ;) ) They’ve got both the experience and the horses to make your day extra unique. They keep their guided tour groups small which helps limit bubble merging. Additionally, you can even book in for a private tour if you’re feeling extra precautious. Go check them out and see what the buzz is all about!

Price: $60pp for 1 hour Horse Trekking

(C) Soul Bar 2022
A soulful meal under a canopy of flowers, overlooking the peaceful waters of Auckland's Viaduct? It doesn't get much more romantic than that! The open-air dining of Soul Bar is well ventilated whether you’re seated indoors or out, you can breathe easy! They also keep tables and chairs generously distanced to help maintain proper bubbles for our red light setting. Soul Bar's selection of seafood, and poultry is to die for; we've started getting hungry just thinking about it! So take your valentines on a special dinner by heading over to Soul Bar.

Price: Approx.$30- $40 per main but varies based on selection
