Want to know the difference between le champagne and La Champagne? Or just want a good excuse to drink bubbly at breakfast? Then you'll love this champagne weekend for two. You'll visit the French region of La Champagne, home to the world-famous tipple and find out all about the traditions and dedication that go into making some of the finest wines in the world. You'll stay for two nights in a three-star hotel with a bottle of champagne in the room to greet you on your arrival. Get your days off to a satisfying start; a wonderful champagne buffet breakfast to share each morning. Join your tour guide and pick up some tasting tips before you visit some of the great champagne houses for a tour and tasting. You also enjoy a tasty lunch at a champagne cellar to further tantalise your tastebuds. You'll travel by luxury coach to and from Reims, crossing then by ferry or shuttle which means an eco-friendly trip, as well as lots more boot space to take your favourite champagne home with you.

London's West End is the best place to see a musical or a quality play, 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 so make it 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 a West End show from the following (subject to availability); 39 Steps, Blood Brothers, Chicago, Woman in Black (Mon-Fri eve and Sat mat); Sound of Music, Spamalot, We Will Rock You, Les Miserables or Wicked (Mon-Fri eve); Stomp (Mon/Thurs/Fri eve and Sat mat); Grease (Mon-Thurs eve and Fri mat) and Zorro (Mon-Thurs eve). You'll sit in the best seats available in either the stalls or the dress circle, so you'll have a fantastic view of the action. Then after the show, stay the night at a centrally located (within London's zone one) four star hotel. All hotel rooms are en-suite and offer a choice of twin or double bedroom. A full English breakfast is also included.
Step out together on a glitzy night out in the West End. Enjoy a delicious dinner and then settle into your top-price seats to see a great show. Start with a two-course pre-theatre meal from the table d'hote menu at one of a selection of restaurants. Each offer fine European cuisine, and they're located in Covent Garden, Soho or Holborn - all within easy walking distance of theatreland. Then get the show on the road with top price tickets to see one of a selection of West End shows from our range. There's something to suit every taste so choose from the star-studded, jazz-vibed Chicago; the Queen rock spectacular We Will Rock You; the moving social commentary of Willy Russell's Blood Brothers, The Woman in Black or even the Sound of Music (which is closing in February 2009)
