Have you ever wondered what it is like to drive a Military Vehicle? Well now is your chance! For the ages 12 and upwards, your young history buffs now have the opportunity to drive a real, heavy, Green NATO vehicle in this 25 minute obstacle course. During the war, the Volvo BV202 was specially designed to conquer ANY terrain it may endure and is fully tracked to pretty much go anywhere. This wartime necessity was originally designed in Sweden for the Swedish army in the 1960’s and was built incredibly light to help transport goods. During your 20-25 minute period in the driver's seat, you will face many different tasks, including manoeuvring the 4.5 tonne beast around multiple obstacles. You will have your concentration, precision and nerve tested, but instructors will be on hand the entire session to ensure you will have an amazing time! With this experience, there is also the opportunity to take an additional 8 passengers for an extra charge, so those who are spectating can choose to enjoy the ride too!
