Instead of taking your loved one on a European city break this Valentine's Day, one firm has suggested a more exotic alternative that will still not break the bank.
Journey Latin America points out that a week-long stay in Argentina could cost as little as half the price of seven days in Paris and offers a more off the beaten track holiday at the same time.
The travel company suggests Atacama in Chile, where star crossed lovers can spend the evenings stargazing, soaking in hot springs or horse riding over the sand dunes.
Another possibility is Cuba, famed for Havana's historical streets and the revolutions of the late 20th century.
"Cuba is home to some of the most romantic destinations in Latin America," a spokesperson for Journey Latin America remarked.
Which? reported earlier this month that dancing holidays, including those in Argentina, are becoming increasingly popular as people seek to emulate their Strictly Come Dancing idols.
