    Getting ready to book your first surprise date? The process is much easier than you think.

    Step 1: Choose your platform

    Select a platform that offers surprise dates, such as Toudou. Navigate to the homepage and look for the option to book a surprise date.

    Step 2: Select your preferences

    You'll be asked to choose a few basic preferences: your budget, the type (couple, friends, corporate outing), and any preferences (active, romantic, culinary). This helps the platform find the perfect experience for you.

    Step 3: Choose your date

    Select the date you want your surprise date to be. Most platforms show you which dates are available.

    Step 4: Complete your booking

    Add your payment details and complete your booking. You'll receive a confirmation email.

    Step 5: Wait for the reveal

    Now the fun part: waiting for the details. Usually you'll receive this 24 hours beforehand. That's it – you're now ready for an unforgettable surprise date.
