Are you someone who can't walk past a jewellers without stopping to admire the gorgeous pieces displayed in the window? Emeralds, rubies, sapphires... and top of the list, a girl's best friend - the sparkle and shine of a diamond. But have you ever wondered what goes into creating such beautiful pieces? With this experience you'll get the opportunity to watch master craftsmen in their working environment and learn about the clarity and colour of different stones. With your new-found knowledge, you'll each choose your own 0.12ct diamond and a 9ct yellow or white gold band to create your own diamond ring. You'll take part in the whole journey, from bending and soldering to filing and buffing. There'll even be the chance to have your rings engraved before the diamonds are set and they receive a final finish. Your finished rings will have an approximate financial value of £250, but these unique pieces are, of course, priceless! Breakfast, lunch, soft drinks and all materials are included.

London's West End is the best place in the country to see a musical, but if you don't happen to live close by then getting to and from the shows can be a chore to say the least. This experience makes the whole thing hassle-free, leaving you to relax and enjoy the show, and maybe a bit of shopping too. You'll get two top-price tickets to your choice from the following list of West End shows (subject to availability): 39 Steps, Blood Brothers, Chicago, We Will Rock You, Buddy (to 6 Feb 2009), Woman in Black, Grease (matinees only) and Sound of Music (to 28 Feb 2009). You'll be in the best seats available on the night in either the stalls or the dress circle, so you'll have a fantastic view of the action. Then after the show, spend the night at a centrally located three star hotel (within London's zone one). All hotel rooms are en-suite and offer a choice of twin or double bedroom. Breakfast is also included.

Should you go on a sight-seeing cruise on the Thames? Are the views better from the London Eye? Or should you just cut to the chase and have a nice dinner somewhere? With this experience you can do all three. You may have to queue a bit but it'll certainly be worth it when you climb aboard your air-conditioned capsule of the London Eye. The Eye slowly turns, giving you sensational panoramic views across London from 135 metres up. Then later, board Bateaux London's river cruiser from the glass pontoon at Embankment Pier for a welcome cocktail. There's cabaret entertainment during your four course a la carte meal before after-dinner dancing. But don't let the great food distract you from the fabulous views, as you cruise past the Houses of Parliament, the Tower of London and many more iconic landmarks. Depending on the season you'll cruise at dusk or in darkness, with the city lit up along the river. This is a wonderful way to see the city from two unique perspectives.
