In one week, it will be Valentine’s Day - the most romantic day of the year, and a chance for people of all creeds, codes and sexes to come together and celebrate mankind’s greatest accomplishment - the power of love.

Here at London Bicycle Tour Company, It also just happens to be one of our favourite dates in the calendar. Our bicycle tours are a great novel idea for couples, no matter what day of the year - we regular have people on first dates riding with us, as well as older couples who have been together for years.

This Valentine’s Day, though, we thought we’d do something extra special for all our loved-up friends and followers out there. That’s why, for the first time in the company’s 28 year history, we are running a special Valentine’s Day themed Tandem Bicycle Ride for couples.

On Valentine’s Day, we’re offering two special, bespoke tours specifically for couples, where five pairs will each jump on a tandem and take to the most romantic, artistic, and romance-inducing spots London has to offer.

Accompanied by one of our most knowledgeable and entertaining guides, they’ll spend  three hours experiencing the unique hilarity that comes with riding a tandem, while taking in the gorgeous splendour of Westminster Abbey, Horse Guard's Parade, and the luxurious green expanses of Hyde and St James' Park.

They’ll have a chance to flex their artistic muscles with a foray into Banksy Tunnel, and brush shoulders with the rich and famous while pedaling through the polished neighbourhoods of Mayfair, Soho, and Covent Garden.

Along the way, they’ll get the unique and rare experience of getting to grips with one of the most hilarious and ingenious inventions known to the world of cycling - the tandem bike.
