Travel to two chic French cities in style this spring, with a deluxe coach offer for $28 (£19) each way. The deal from iDBUS saves up to 62% on the usual cost.

The routes on offer are:

• London to Paris... $28 (£19)
• London to Lyon... $44 (£29)

This offer is valid for departure from March 18-27 and April 2-11, 2013.

Worn and cramped old coaches are now a thing of the past, as the iDBUS vehicles are built with fewer seats to create more space for passengers -- there's a minimum of 84 cm between each row of seats. The seats not only recline, but also come with a laterally adjustable foot rest, a personal reading shelf and an integrated cup holder. Free wifi is included, each seat has its own electrical outlet and there's a real-time journey tracker on the iDBUS information screens.

About the destinations: Top Paris attractions -- the Louvre, the Arc de Triomphe and the Eiffel Tower -- have been tempting tourists for years, but we'd also recommend an afternoon of taste-testing macarons at Ladurée and a wander around artsy Montmartre at dusk.

Lyon is often referred to as the food capital of France, even the world, by food critics across the globe. While the city is undoubtedly "famed for its Michelin-starred restaurants" (according to The Daily Telegraph), this gastronomic hub also offers renaissance-era architecture, a lively culture scene and plentiful boutique shopping -- especially for silk goods.
