Should you go on a sight-seeing cruise on the Thames? Are the views best from the London Eye? Or should you just cut to the chase and have a nice lunch somewhere? With this experience you can do all three. You'll board Bateaux London's river cruiser from the glass pontoon at Embankment Pier. Then relax on board and enjoy a three course lunch, followed by tea or coffee. 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. After lunch you'll be dropped off just a few steps from the London Eye. You may have to queue a bit here, but it'll certainly be worth it when you climb aboard your air-conditioned capsule. The Eye slowly turns, giving you sensational panoramic views across London from 135 metres up. This is a fantastic way to enjoy the sights from two unique perspectives. This experience is for one person.

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)
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 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 ring engraved before the diamond is set and it receives a final finish. Your finished ring will have an approximate financial value of £250, but this unique piece is, of course, priceless! Breakfast, lunch, soft drinks and all materials are included.
The Orient-Express British Pullman, hauled by a magnificent steam engine... is there any more glamorous way to travel? On this experience you'll find out just why this iconic train has such a fabulous reputation, and revel in luxury and nostalgia en route to one of a number of historic destinations. Each unique carriage dates from the 1920s or 1930s and is staffed by liveried stewards. Your experience will begin in style, with brunch and a Bellini served on your outward journey. Choose a destination from some of Britain's finest towns, cities and historic attractions. On arrival you'll disembark for a walking tour, usually followed by some free time for exploring. On your return journey, relax and enjoy a glass of champagne and a three or four course meal with wine. The exact itinerary will depend on your choice of destination, but wherever you go we know that you'll fall in love with this romantic train.
Wine is a glorious gift from the gods, but if you can't tell your Pinot Noir from a Pinot Plonk, why not treat yourself and a partner to a delightful weekend of informative indulgence? After travelling to Bordeaux at your leisure (travel not included) check into your centrally located and delightfully family run 18th century hotel, your base for the following three nights. The first evening to ease you into the heady world of French wine, your expert wine guide will host a wine tasting giving a fascinating insight into the wines and region of Bordeaux. After breakfast (included every morning), be whisked away to have your first of two chateaux visits, this time to the Medoc famous for the quality of their wines, before retiring to the hotel. The second day begins where you left off with another chateau, this time on the right bank with more fabulously sumptuous wines. By breakfast and check out on the third morning you will be awash with a new found vigour for wine. C'est magnifique!
