If you’ve got a date this Valentines then ditch the tube or taxi and get yourself on to an Uber! Why? Well, Uber is running a special service on Valentines Day with Thames Clippers to help you sail off into the sunset in style. As well as ferrying you across the river, the Uber Love Boat is turning the romance right up with performances of classic love songs (apparently us Brits love a bit of Whitney’s ‘I Will Always Love You’) played live by London based string quartets, including String Infusion, Prima Strings, Halo Strings and Giardino Strings.

This is right up my street! Whilst you’re being serenaded, you’ll also be able to order champagne, Valentine’s salted caramel cupcakes and chocolate heart-shaped shortbread biscuits on top of the regular drinks and nibbles on-board menu. You defo don’t get this kind of service or the views on the Central Line!
