5 Over-the-Top Valentine's Day Dates Extravagant Enough to Be On The Bachelor 

Valentine’s Day is upon us this week, and coincidentally so is the next episode of The Bachelor (tonight at 8 pm ET on ABC). Inspired by some of the ridiculously romantic and extravagant dates that ABC’s hit show sets up for its cast (like bungee jumping off a cliff in New Zealand, to riding elephants into the sunset in South Africa), we’ve compiled a list of over-the-top dates around the globe to show your significant other your unabashed devotion. After all, nothing says love like an $11,000 couples heli-skiing trip complete with customized his and her skiis.
