Overview
This superb military themed driving experience puts you in control of a selection of real ex-services vehicles. You'll start in a 432 Armoured Personnel Carrier before taking the controls of a Supercat, a go anywhere, all-wheel-drive vehicle. You'll also get to go into the Armoury, where an ex-British Army sniper and mercenary will talk you through hardware like AK47s, MP5 machine guns and handheld grenade launchers, plus how to field strip a WW2 Bren gun. Then it's onto the big stuff! Take the chance to drive the Gvozdika, a fully amphibious tank that has played an important role in military history. As if that wasn't enough, the best driver of the day will also get to park a Chieftain Main Battle Tank on top of a saloon car! Have you got what it takes?

The actual driving was good fun and well organised. The additional activities (Bren Gun dismantle and rebuild, and a talk in the Armoury) were interesting bonuses. However, there was a lot of standing about and waiting.

All the staff were very friendly and welcoming and family and friends were included in all activities. Driving the vehicles was so much fun (even in the mud!) and I would recommend it to everyone!

Bought this experience for my husband as a Christmas present.
The staff at Tanks a Lot made you feel very welcome and it was well supervised. I went as a spectator and we both thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon.

Brilliant Experience

Getting to drivie the Russian tank was amazing, up close to a real war machine. Even driving the Personnel Carrier was good fun as well as being a passenger in one, now I know what soliders go through in the back of one of them. The Survival talk with John Sullivan was really good, meeting someone who has experienced so much in life and how to survive on your own was interesting and a learning experience. The staff at Tanks A Lot were very welcoming and knowledgable.

This is an experience that every bloke should go on - it wasn't just about tanks although driving a tank was damn good fun! We got to drive all sorts of military vehicles and even play at being SAS for a bit! Felt like a proper action hero and got some great pics in the army get up with camouflage gear!
