As Christmas looms, let the holiday specialists at AITO (www.aito.co.uk) help you with gift ideas.
If 2008 brings a special celebration, how about a spring weekend in Champagne tasting no fewer than 25 different bottles of fizz? Guided by experts, it's a great way to celebrate - and it's (just) under £300 a person.
Prefer to stay UK-based? For those interested in history and who like walking, try a weekend at Stonehenge and Avebury, in Wiltshire, with an expert guide. You'll see the sun rise over the stones, while inside the stone circle, and then set off on a walk, visiting prehistoric burial barrows. It's a fascinating experience that your gift recipient will always remember. That is also just under £300 pp, including one dinner and two nights' b&b.
Lunch in Paris via Eurostar's new high-speed service from St Pancras? Now that's a stylish gift! Several AITO members offer a wide range of restaurants, from glitzy to bohemian, and will send you a gift certificate for the lucky recipient to open on Christmas Day. Pop it inside a guide book to Paris for a great surprise!
What about carbon offsetting a holiday as a gift for someone who's environmentally aware? It's easy to do via www.aito.co.uk and an unusual and thoughtful gift.
Finally, AITO can arrange gift vouchers of any value - just email info@aito.co.uk or call 020 8744 9280.
What about travel vouchers as a wedding gift, for example? Great gift ideas and great holiday ideas all come with full financial protection when you buy from AITO.
