Tank Driving Taster in Leicestershire for One

£130

About the experience

Never felt the raw power of driving a tank? Don't let this opportunity roll by. Learn to commandeer one of these iconic behemoths on land formerly used by the RAF. Upon arrival, change into the provided uniform and helmet. Once dressed for the part, meet the instructor and crew, before being taken to a mighty turreted FV432 tank. Tune in to a briefing, then climb inside and take the controls. It's time to go on a drive through the Leicestershire countryside. Have a go at driving with the hatch open, then try using the periscope instead for a different perspective. When the instructor takes over the driving, get comfy in the turret and relish the ride.
