To make it even more thrilling, top it off with a stay in a NY Habitat vacation rental.<\/p>\n<p>Lovers\u2019 Leap is a 165-foot bungee jump temporarily set up off of London Bridge. Couples can head headfirst toward the Thames in tandem or singles can make two separate jumps. The experience includes a half-bottle of champagne to celebrate after your successful jump\u2014or perhaps to help calm your nerves beforehand. Best of all, you get a video of your jump to relive the moment all over again (which is especially useful if you had your eyes closed the whole time!). It\u2019s also a great souvenir to show off to friends and family.<\/p>\n<p>This is only the third year that Lovers\u2019 Leap has been running at London Bridge, so it really is still quite special\u2014but no worries! The bungee company has been in business since 1992 and has orchestrated over 100,000 jumps. It has also raised over \u00a31 million for charity.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>What will also have you jumping for joy is the selection of vacation <a title=\"Vacation Rentals in London\" href=\"\/london-apartment\/vacation\">accommodations in London<\/a> that are close to the river.<\/strong><strong> Consider <a title=\"Apartments for rent in Southwark and Bermondsey, London\" href=\"\/london-apartment\/furnished\/southwark-bermondsey\">apartment rentals in Southwark<\/a> and <a title=\"Accommodations in the City, London\" href=\"\/london-apartment\/vacation\/city\">vacation rentals in the City<\/a>.<\/strong> Just a few Tube stops (or a romantic stroll) away from London Bridge is St. George\u2019s Drive, a peaceful street near to <a title=\"Read more about Buckingham Palace\" href=\"\/blog\/2010\/10\/19\/london-attraction-buckingham-palace\/\">Buckingham Palace<\/a>, pretty St. James\u2019s Park and the Houses of Parliament.
