Family Amphibious Vehicle Tour of London
Get your binoculars out and prepare yourself for this unique perspective of London with an amphibious tour around the sights of the capital. These fascinating DUKWS vehicles were originally used in World War Two and the Korean War, transporting troops and cargo across the waters straight onto the land - exactly what you'll be doing! Famous sights you'll see include Big Ben, Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace and The Ritz. Your guide will give you an entertaining commentary, providing an alternative view of London's history, as well as including some fascinating facts and figures about the DUKW (known as Duck) vehicle. Then after passing The Tate Gallery, you'll dive into the Thames and swim up and down the river, before climbing up onto the streets of London towards Lambeth Palace and back to your starting point near the famous London Eye.

Your experience starts when you meet Bath, England and British Lions legend Gareth Chilcott. After a tea or coffee, Gareth will take you on a tour of Twickenham, including the England team dressing room, the Royal Box, the players' tunnel and even the hallowed turf from the pitch side (we challenge you not to imagine you're running out to the roar of the home crowd!). Then visit the interactive Museum of Rugby, which houses the most extensive collection of rugby memorabilia in the world. Along the way, you'll have plenty of time to get playing tips from Gareth, as well as some insider gossip - Gareth is full of funny stories and anecdotes. Dare you to call him Cooch.

'Les Miserables' Kids' Club for Eight
This is great way to try out acting and learn all about the theatre at one of the most successful shows in the world. First of all, before the day, you'll be sent a synopsis of the show on CD (read by Sir Ian McKellan) so that you're familiar with the story. The big day starts off with a fantastic three-hour kids' workshop. This includes a backstage tour of the theatre and a drama workshop based on improvisational games that will bring out your inner star. The workshop ends which a re-enactment of a scene from the show, using real costumes and props, plus a chance to quiz a real member of the Les Mis cast and a certificate to take home. A packed lunch with a sandwich, crisps, apple and juice is included (sorry but special dietary needs can't be catered for, so bring your own lunch if you prefer). Then in the afternoon, you'll watch a matinee performance of the hit musical and can also relax in the private bar area.

Western Horse Riding Experience for Two
Discover your inner cowboy (or cowgirl) on this great day out in the New Forest, England's answer to the Wild West (okay there's lots of trees and not many cacti, but bear with us). You'll start off with coffee, bacon rolls and a briefing from your ranch hand. Then head up to the field to meet and catch your horse, before learning how to groom and tack him up Western style. Then you'll have a Western riding lesson in the arena - it's easier to learn and feels more secure than riding English-style, so it's great even for beginners. And those cowboys had to spend all day in the saddle, so they made damn sure it was comfortable! Take a break for a barbecue lunch and then head off on the Western Trail into the forest. You'll finish up back at the ranch, to untack, rub down and feed your horse, and turn him out to pasture before you settle down to a well-earned coffee. Rawhide!
