How well do you know the person you're dating? Is it an established relationship or blind dates? What kind of stimming opportunities are you looking for and how hard/easy are they to disguise as something else?
I had similar qualifications for date ideas when I was dating using the apps, but with the added criteria of that I didn't want it to cost them/me anything more than transportation and it needed to be a place I felt relatively safe in just in case something went south. I also wanted to make sure it had adequate parking and was relatively easy to find.
My go-to blind date ideas:
Visiting a local point of interest/hiking trail (ours is an old race track with old cars on display)
Visiting a garden/arboretum
Wandering around a mall (favorite blind date, he info-dumped about shoes for 3 hours, I loved it)
For dates with my boyfriend I don't have to worry about the cost (though we usually fight over who gets to pay haha) and I don't have to worry about safety. Because I know and I trust him. He also knows my interests as well as my limitations and will suggest places he thinks are neat and that won't overwhelm or overstimulate me.
Dates I've been on that met your criteria:
Old manor houses
Castles/Fortifications
Monument park
Museums
Fossil hunting beach
Aquarium (off-peak)
Zoo/Animal park (off-peak)
