HIKE THE TREACHEROUS TERRAIN TO HALF DOME IN YOSEMITE

TAKE AN EXHILARATING HELICOPTER RIDE OVER SAN FRANCISCO

Take in the iconic sites, like the Golden Gate Bridge and the Bay Area skyline on a private helicopter tour.  Hopefully you can catch the notoriously grey and foggy area on a clear day.  When all the stars align, the helicopter ride affords some of the most breathtaking views around.  Finish off your date with dinner and drinks at the historic Top of the Mark, on the top floor of the Mark Hopkins Hotel.  The 360-degree views will make you feel like you’re still on the helicopter tour.  Visit http://sfhelicopters.com to reserve your tour.

RIDE THE PALM SPRINGS AERIAL TRAMWAY

Go from the heat of the desert to snowcapped mountains in a matter of minutes, on this one of a kind aerial tram.  Built into the rugged mountain terrain, the glass trams transport you from Palm Springs to a beautiful mountain setting.  Enjoy dinner at the top at the Forest View Restaurant, walk the beautiful trails and take in the Palm Springs landscape from above.  Then when you’re ready, descend back to the warmth and fun that the desert has to offer.  Visit https://pstramway.com for tickets.
