My son and his girlfriend are going to London, Prague and Vienna next week. It is her birthday and he is looking for something special in one of these three cities to surprise her with. Any ideas on a unique off the beaten track activity that would fit the bill within one of these cities?

What does she like?

And any idea of a budget?

there are lots of special things for big $ - fewer at lower prices.

And telling anything about her would help.

janisj

give us an idea of his budget - there are lots of possibilities . . . . .

Alisonv

His budget would ideally be nothing higher than 300 - 400.

As for likes she is open to a lot of things, theyy both go to a lot of museums and enjoy good restaurants. In London they are already planning on going to see a ton of shows. Sorry I know it isn't much to go off of...

300 or 400 what? US$, Aus$, Can$, €, £ or ???

Thanks for some really interesting ideas. The budget is 300-400 Canadian dollars. I will pass along these ideas and any others you can think of.

Private pod on London Eye with champagne?

janisj

I was going to suggest the Champagne flight in a private Eye pod as well - but it costs over your budget.

There is a regular Champagne flight but where you don't get the pod to yourselves that is quite inexpensive. only £33 pp. Having the private pod is the expensive bit.

I did the regular champagne flight - but there were 9 of us so in effect it became a private pod since they didn't put anyone else in w/ us.

He can book a "cupid's Capsule" for £299

I was looking at the Dinner for Two wagon on the Vienna Ferris Wheel (The cupid cabin on the Eye would be great but just too pricy), has anyone ever taken this? Does the price (198 euros) include the meal or is that added on afterwards? Any other hidden costs we should be aware of?
