A special two for one offer on high-speed RIB boat tours of London

A special two for one offer on high-speed RIB boat tours of London

If whizzing up and down the Thames seeing the sights from the unusual vantage point of a high-speed Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) floats your boat, then this special two for one deal from Into the Blue is the perfect way to offer a great gift that not just one, but two people can enjoy.

The RIBs set off from the jetty right next to the London Eye on the South Embankment, so even as you’re climbing aboard the boat you’ll be right amongst some of the best-known London landmarks with County Hall, the Houses of Parliament and Portcullis House all within sight. For this tour you’ll head down river to see the skyscrapers of Canary Wharf, with plenty of sights to see in between, from St Paul’s Cathedral and Somerset House to the OXO Tower, the Globe Theatre and Tower Bridge.

And it’s not just seeing the sights of our Capital that’ll entertain you, at certain points in the ride the boat driver will be putting his foot down so you get the thrill of feeling the acceleration of these highly manoeuverable boats, complete with a good dose of waterspray as you take on a few tight turns on the Thames!

As we said, this two for one RIB tour offer is for a limited period only and is organised on Wednesdays for adults only. However, as with all Into the Blue vouchers, your two for one RIB voucher will be valid for a full 12 months, so you should have plenty of time to redeem your voucher.

Limited offer : two for one deal on kayaking

Two can learn to kayak for the price of one

Dubbed in the office as ‘paddling for pairs’, Into the Blue has a neat little springtime offer on kayaking, at lake Tilgate near Crawley in West Sussex, to get you into the great outdoors this spring.

As it stands, you’ll be able to buy this two for one voucher until the end of May, but you still have to the end of October 2009 to actually use your voucher, giving you plenty of time to book you and your intrepid partner in for this kayak adventure.

Lake Tilgate is the perfect spot for learning how to kayak on the calm waters of the lake set in a 400 acre nature reserve. The fully qualified canoe instructors will teach you a few of the basic strokes (we were thinking Hawaii Five-O stylee, but apparently that’s not the same thing!) and there’ll be plenty of games out on the water to test your balance and paddling prowess.

Don’t forget, this offer is only available at the West Sussex kayak centre and you must buy your two for one vouchers before the end of May, but you have all summer long to use them.

Don’t forget Mum on Mother’s Day!

Tuesday, March 3rd, 2009

Mum’s are special all year round, but Mother’s Day on the 22nd March 2009 means you can really spoil her. After all, your Mum is the one who probably changed you nappies, wrote sick notes when you wanted to get out of PE at school and somehow (even today) instinctively knows when you’re in trouble and need help, so she really deserves to feel special.

All Mums are different, so we’ve put together a whole host of Mother’s Day gift ideas, with activity vouchers to pamper your Mum, some suggestions for fun activities to try and even a few high thrills ideas if your Mum is a bit of a daredevil type!

A pamper day always goes down well with Mums and we particularly like our Leisure Day Pass voucher, as it’s actually valid for two people, so us daughters can accompany our Mums on a relaxing day out together for just £20. We also like the idea of Mum being able to shoot a few arrows, so we added an Archery Lesson experience also at £20, which appropriately takes place in Nottingham - home of that ace bowman, Robin Hood.

If you want to push the boat out for Mother’s Day and give Mum the chance to prove she doesn’t always drive in a sedately fashion, we’ve got Rally Driving Intro Courses in Northamptonshire for a mere £82 - we reckon that’s a small price to pay to see our Mum screeching tyres and doing powerslides!!
