If you love tanks this one's for you!
Saracen 6x6 APC, FV432 tracked APC, Centurion main battle tank AND T-55 main battle tank drives
An armoured extravaganza!
All our biggest, meanest, armoured monsters are included in this premier package.
Drive both our huge Armoured Personnel Carriers - the Saracen and FV432 and then move on to both our massive Main Battle Tanks - the Centurion and T-55. Lots of wheels, lots of tracks, lots of noise, lots of power but mostly lots and lots of grinning fun.
This is Tanker's Heaven!
All driving experiences start with a guided tour of our vehicle fleet, where we'll explain the history and mechanical specifications of the vehicles, the design features and their service records. We'll also let you get inside for a really close look - this includes moving the gun on the tank. You can bring up to 4 guests on this tour for no extra charge. This tour generally takes about 45-60 minutes.
Then its time to put on your camo overalls and helmet and head out to your tank. After an initial safety briefing, one of our instructors will familiarise you with the vehicle you are going to drive. Under their supervision you will then take control of the vehicle(s) on our purpose built track. This driving part generally takes about 20-30 minutes per vehicle driven (with about 10-15 minutes actual driving time).
