Full Monty Tank Driving for Two
You've got to hand it the army - they've definitely got the best wheels. You can't beat a day driving around in military vehicles and shooting at stuff. All the fun of being a soldier with none of the risks. You'll be kitted out in a camouflage suit and helmet and given a full safety briefing. During the course of the day you'll drive a Russian Grozdilka tank, a fully amphibious Hagglund tracked carrier, an FV 432 armoured personnel carrier and a Rapier rocket carrier. You'll get a ride in a Lance missile carrier, spend an hour in the armoury and there are other military-themed activities too - learn how to fire a range of classic weapons like mortars and muskets (mind your eyebrows!), go on an SAS woodland patrol and try clay-pigeon shooting. At the end of the day, the best driver will get to crush a car with a 56 ton Chieftain tank! Lunch is included, and you even get to keep your camo suit. So leave the tv behind and come and get in touch with your rough and ready side!
More Information... | Arctic Adventure and Ice Hotel for Two
Explore the exquisite beauty of the Arctic on a three day adventure trip, 100 miles north of the Arctic Circle. You'll start by meeting your guide for a welcome drink, before heading to Musher's lodge. There you'll be kitted out in Arctic clothes and meet your team of dogs, before a short tour of the area and dinner under the Northern Lights. Then snuggle down for the night, because in the morning you'll be dogsledding across the frozen wilderness, stopping off for lunch at a lodge next to a frozen lake. Your destination is the astonishing Ice Hotel: a chic hotel built from the ice each year, which melts away every spring. Relax in the Ice Bar, go for a sauna and then curl up in your thermal sleeping bags for a night in a bedroom made completely of ice. The experience also includes a fabulous snowmobile tour - part of everyday life up here in the Arctic but fantastic fun nonetheless! Accommodation, equipment and some meals are included. Flights to and from Kiruna are not included.
More Information... | North Pole Fly In
Journey over sparkling ice and snow to one of the last true frontiers left on the planet - the geographic North Pole. After reaching Svalbard, Norway's northernmost outpost, you'll board a jet to Camp Borneo, followed by a flight in a polar-proven helicopter over the Arctic Circle, home of polar bears, walruses and seals. You'll land as close to the geographic North Pole as possible, where you'll enjoy champagne and the unique opportunity to run around the world. From here it's all south, returning to Svalbard for a snowmobile day exploring the icy wilderness and the majestic Tempelfjord. Return flights from Svalbard to Camp Borneo, a snowmobile tour, some of your meals, three nights' accommodation and specialist equipment are all included.
More Information... | Canyoning for Eight
Rediscover your sense of adventure - and what it's like to be soaked to the skin! Canyoning is a truly all-round adventure experience, following a natural water course through a precipitous canyon. To start off with you'll have a safety briefing with your instructor and get kitted out with the right equipment. Then after a short walk to the top of the beautiful Allt' a Bhealaich Gorge, you'll follow the natural water course down through the gorge, descending waterfalls, sliding down natural water flumes, scrambling down gorges and jumping into deep, clear rock pools. In some sections you'll use harnesses and ropes to get down, all safely controlled by your instructor. This is a challenging, exciting and very physical experience and you might get a few bumps along the way, but there's a path running along the length of the canyon, so no part of the descent is compulsory - you can always take the path instead.
