Description

Good to Know

The Private Picnic Experience is a great way to unplug, relax, and learn a little about the Queen City. It is the perfect addition to a stay or a wonderful way to explore what's right in your own backyard. We cordially invite you to spend a relaxing afternoon or evening at the park with breathtaking views of Uptown Charlotte while indulging in refreshing beverages. We also provide a variety of couples activities to help you relax and reconnect. This is a private experience. Only guests in your party will participate.

You are also welcome to bring your own food.

Everything you need for the perfect picnic date! Picnic Basket, Picnic Blanket, Picnic Accessories (Tableware, Cutlery, etc...), Chairs, Beverages, Conversation Starters, & Games

Your Private Picnic Experience includes bottled water & sparkling cider.

Food is not included in your Experience unless the Picnic w/Charcuterie option is booked.

This Private Picnic is the perfect opportunity for couples to learn about Charlotte while spending time together. Couples will be given a guided introduction through First Ward Park (or designated back up park) highlighting the history of Charlotte as well as the First Ward area. Then couples will be led to their picnic which includes beverages and breathtaking views of the Uptown Charlotte skyline. Once your experience is booked, you will receive a text with suggested times and logistics. The day before your picnic, you will receive a text confirming the location, time, and parking instructions.

You will be the center of attention in the park, but you'll have your privacy. Park security didn't allow umbrellas to block the sun, but it was fine, just stay hydrated.

Wonderful Picnic Vibes

Danielle was such a pleasure and her set up was beautiful and romantic! Just what we needed to enjoy our time in such a lovely park! Her attention to detail was spot on, and this was definitely worth the price and a very enjoyable experience!

Amazing experience!

I was so surprised by the picnic set up, organized by my boyfriend. Danielle had everything we needed, from hand wipes to games and even romantic question cards. I had a lovely time. Danielle was so professional, helpful and kind.

Wonderful Experience and Even Better Person

I set up this Private Experience for my girlfriend’s 30th birthday and she was super excited. Danielle was super personable and wonderful person. The location was great, you are able to have a beautiful scenery of Uptown and she was prepared with everything in mind. Will definitely use her again in the future. I definitely recommend you add this to your things to do list in Charlotte!

Response from ViatorJune 20, 2024

WOW!! Thank you so much for such a glowing review! It was absolutely my pleasure!! You guys were just the cutest and sweetest couple! I look forward to working with you both again!
