This is the perfect way to try out rock climbing, even if you're currently a complete stranger to crampons. Using a state-of-the-art indoor climbing wall, you'll learn the ropes (pun intended) without any chance of your climb being ruined by downpours or midge attacks. First off you'll be briefed on safety and basic climbing techniques - all necessary stuff, though it won't make much sense while your feet are still firmly on the ground. So then it's time to put theory into practice on the instruction bay. You'll learn the basics of climbing and abseiling, including how to tie in, belay, and the moves you need to scale the aretes, slabs, overhangs and grooves on your way to the top - all with constant encouragement and supervision from your expert instructors. You're in for a challenging, exciting and fun time - and you'll be amazed at what you can achieve. All the climbing equipment is included, and after your climb you'll receive a photograph and a certificate to take home.

Experience the glamorous world of international espionage by indulging the fantasy with this great day playing at secret agents. After a full briefing you and the other spies learn some of the skills employed by secret agents all over the world. Heading to the firing ranges, you'll learn how to shoot automatic pistols and sniper rifles. Then move onto axe throwing (for goodness' sake don't try this at home), unarmed combat and covert surveillance, using cameras and bugs. Then try evasive driving - including J turns, handbrake turns and anti-ambush drills. Finish off at the 'drive in' pistol range, firing at targets from a moving vehicle, before screeching to a halt, jumping out of the car for more shooting and then speeding off again. Throughout the day you'll be supervised by instructors who have first-hand experience of carrying out surveillance operations.
Throwing yourself out of a plane at 10,000 feet might be considered utter madness. But if close friends start wondering aloud about your sanity (or the contents of your will), you can reassure them that you'll be attached (literally) to an expert instructor and that, frankly, you're in for an experience so exhilarating that you'll probably never stop talking about it. It begins with around an hour of instruction on skydiving and landing techniques, before you go up in the plane. You'll be securely harnessed to your instructor, who will help you jump from the plane (or at least help you fall with style). You'll get about 30 seconds of freefall, which is so completely incredible there's no point in us trying to describe it. Then your instructor will open the parachute and control your descent while you admire the view and try to come to terms with the adrenaline rush. Mind blowing.
21st century living is all about comfort and cosiness - often our idea of adventure is ordering a different takeaway. But we were designed to be capable of much more! Leave the mod-cons at home and rediscover your survival instincts with a weekend in the wild. Say hello to your fellow survivors as you sort out equipment preparation and get some initial instruction. You'll then set off together across a 500 acre site on an awareness walk using a map and compass, with training in all sorts of survival techniques - learn about edible plants, survival medicine, firelighting, skinning food (oh yes, this is proper survival), food preparation, collecting water and navigation. You'll build your own shelter - make it a good one, you'll be spending the night in it - before preparing your meal and cooking it over an open fire. Then bed down in your shelter for the night in the wilderness. Learn more survival techniques on Sunday and enjoy a survival-style Sunday lunch to wrap up your weekend.
Imagine crashing through the undergrowth, dodging exploding paintballs, hiding in bunkers, or spying on your enemies from on high. On arrival, you will be kitted out with freshly laundered combat coveralls, full face protection paintball goggles and a top of the range semi-automatic paintball gun with an impressive 500 paintballs each. You will be given a full safety briefing by an experienced marshal before commencing play. This is a real chance to shake off your day-to-day responsibilities and rekindle your spirit of adventure. There are between four and six games included, played out within differently themed areas and zones, set up to test your skills of strategy, leadership, navigation and teamwork.
