The Valentine's Tour was the tenth tour of Mario Kart Tour, which began on January 29, 2020 and ended on February 11, 2020. It was the first tour to introduce only one spotlight driver: Baby Peach in a Cupid-like cherub outfit, reflecting the tour's theme of Valentine's Day; while both Peach (Vacation) and Shy Guy (Pastry Chef) returned from the 2019 Paris Tour as the spotlight drivers for the second week. Paris Promenade was once again the featured course of the tour through the new course Paris Promenade 2, a reference to Paris being commonly known as the "City of Love". The menu's background featured the Eiffel Tower as the landmark for this tour, which was reused from the 2019 Paris Tour. This is the first tour, and also the only one, where in 2 week pipe is only 2 spotlights.
