Transport yourself back to the days of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid with this wild west adventure for the cowboy or cowgirl in you. Your experience begins with a welcome and introduction to the Western Paint horses, Boston, Gypsy and friends. You'll meet your own trusty steed, saddle up and head off for a one hour riding lesson in the Western Riding Arena - western style. It's easier to learn and feels more secure than riding English-style, so it's great even for beginners. Next you'll be shown how to try your luck at lassoing the cow-horns, then finally it's time for a well-earned feast of ranch burger and beans. You'll also get certificates to take home to show everyone that you're official Junior Cowboys.

In a nutshell, polo is a game that involves hitting a small ball with a long stick while sitting astride a beautiful polo horse - easy! Don't worry if you don't know how to ride, the horses are very friendly and know exactly what they are doing. You'll start off by being briefed on the basic rules and theory of polo by expert instructors. Then you'll have lots of time to practice ball hitting, polo riding, hooking and riding off (and all the terminology will be explained we promise!). The polo ponies are very well-schooled and there will be an instructor by your side to help and encourage you all the way. After your theory training you'll mount your polo pony, and then it's time to put what you've learnt into practice as you play an instructional chukka or game - a mini polo match! Why not stay and watch the Club chukkas and tournaments being played for the rest of the day? You'll be amazed what you can achieve in just a single lesson, polo is a great sport both to play and to watch.
Despite all attempts by the Germans to infiltrate the franchise, there is and always will be only one car that is quintessentially Bond - the Aston Martin. Here's your chance to drive one of the coolest cars in the world before you've even passed your test, and find out if you've got what it takes to be the next 007. Start off with a welcome and safety briefing from your qualified instructor, then learn basic driving techniques in a Mini Cooper, with you behind the wheel for ten minutes. Your instructor will then demonstrate circuit driving techniques and racing lines in a BMW Alpina D3 on the circuit, with you riding as a passenger. Your time has now come - drive the breathtaking Aston Martin DB9, capable of over 180mph, for another ten whole minutes yourself. The circuit is 1.8 miles long and has been specially designed to put amazing cars like the DB9 through their paces. This experience is guaranteed to leave you shaken and stirred! Concludes with a certificate presentation.
Try out one of the fastest growing water sports and get to grips with paddling a kayak in a group environment. During the session, you can both expect to learn the basics of paddle and boat control as well as general river safety, with instruction taking place in a safe boating area two to three feet deep. Once the basics are mastered, head out into calm sections of the river under the supervision of qualified instructors. Take a trip through the beautiful Jephson Gardens and local nature reserve to explore and participate in games and challenges to put your new skills to the test. Kayaks were originally developed by indigenous people of Arctic regions, who used the boats to hunt on inland lakes, rivers and coastal waters. The first kayaks consisted of stitched animal skins such as seal stretched over a wooden frame. Don't worry, today they are a little more high tech, made from rotomoulded plastic, wood, fabric over wooden or aluminum frame, fiberglass, Kevlar or carbon fibre.
