Want the thrill of driving a tank, but the introductory experiences are too short, you want to drive more than one and you can’t spare a whole day for a tank driving experience? Then a half day tank driving experience is the answer.
The best half day tank driving experience
There are loads available, but don’t worry – here at tank driving experiences we’ve found them all and checked them out. Our recommended half day tank driving experience is also the cheapest and the best value by far.
It’s the Ultimate Tank Driving Experience from Extreme Elements, famous for their adrenalin rush activity experiences. If you can get to Winchester, this tank driving experience is tanktastic – So what’s so good about this experience?
Drive the legendary Chieftain tank
Set on Salisbury Plain near Winchester (the Wembley Stadium of Tank Driving Experiences!), this fantastic experience is the only one where you’re guaranteed to take the controls of the legendary Chieftain Tank. This 55 ton monster is not called the Chieftain for nothing, and was one of the most advanced and feared tanks well into the 1990’s. None of the other half day tank driving experiences have this as a selling point – check carefully on the others – you’ll get the great FV432, but no Chieftain, a believe me, till you’ve driven a Chieftain, you’ve not been in a tank.
Drive lots of other tanks too
But that’s far from all. As well as the mighty 700 horsepower Chieftain tank, in your half day experience you’ll also take control of the Abbot SPG, the FV432 tank – all 17 tons of it, and even get to try out a quad bike for good measure. No wonder it’s called the Ultimate tank driving experience – the wonder is how they fit it all into half a day.
Cheapest half day tank driving experience
This half day tank driving experience, where you actually get to drive the Chieftain tank and other great military machines, costs only £169.00 from Extreme Elements, one of the country’s biggest experience day providers.
