For 22 years - and counting - Trackdays has been proud to provide the most exciting and exhilarating Driving Experience days around. And if you're thinking of booking one to surprise somebody for a special occasion, then this guide blog we've put together will offer all the insight you need into ordering a driving experience or gift voucher with us.

Can I purchase a driving experience as a gift?

Yes, you can purchase a driving experience as a gift with Trackdays. In fact, it's the ideal gift for just about any celebration - Birthdays, Christmas, Valentine's Day, Father's Day - for so many reasons.

Firstly, it's offering the chance to drive something totally out of the ordinary for a day. Whether that's a turbocharged supercar, a rear-wheel drive drift car, hitting the race track in a Formula 1 single seater, or even going hell for leather in a rally spec car, it's the opportunity to make a driving dream come true.

And it also offers something that will have a lasting impact way beyond their special day, rather than something hastily bought that's shoved away and forgotten in a drawer or cupboard, and create memories that they'll look back on fondly for years to come.

Some driving vouchers we have available even offer extras such as a media package, so you've got professionally taken images or even videos to take home from the day to look back on.

Can I book a dated voucher for a driving experience?

Yes, you can book a dated voucher for a driving experience on Trackdays. We're proud to work with a wide selection of suppliers who host our incredible experiences at venues covering the length and breadth of the country.

And because we're in regular contact with them, it means that we are able to offer real-time date availability sourced directly from our suppliers, on our Driving Experience Calendar pages, which offer complete listings of all forthcoming event dates at venues across the UK, offering you the most up to date information on availability of any online agency.

On these pages, we also have search filters that you can use to help you find the date of your choice, which will sort these by weekday or weekend slots, by adult and junior experiences, and also by dates within a given range up to 12 months in advance. Then it's as easy as clicking or tapping to buy a voucher for the experience on the event date of your choice!

Can I buy open gift vouchers for a driving experience?

Yes, Trackdays also offers open Gift Vouchers that can be redeemed and used for driving experiences. These are a great and flexible option, particularly if you'd prefer to give the lucky recipient the freedom to choose the driving adventure they want to go on.

You can load an open Gift Voucher up with either a predetermined value up to £400, or you can load it up with the value of your choice, meaning that if there's a particular experience or experiences that they want to go on, you can add on the exact amount to the card as required, and then click or tap to buy.

Plus, because the open gift voucher isn't tied to one specific event, it means it can be redeemed and used for the event of their choice at a date and time that will suit them best - so that means they'll get more enjoyment out of the experience!

Can I get a Trackdays gift voucher gift wrapped?

Yes! Whilst all Trackdays gift voucher orders come with free email delivery as standard, you can, for an additional fee, also opt in for us to take care of gift wrapping for you as well.

We have two options that you can book. There's a presentation pack, which has all the essential gift information and redemption details, a unique gift voucher card and the option to add a personalised message inside.

Or you can buy one of our Premium Gift Boxes, which has all the essential gift and redemption information, a unique gift voucher card, a personalised message, and an exclusive Trackdays keyring.

Whichever option you go for, all are available to be delivered either through Royal Mail Tracked 48, or APC Tracked Next Working Day Delivery, and if ordered before 11am Monday - Friday, will be dispatched the same day (excluding Bank Holidays).

What else should I consider when ordering a driving experience gift?

Before you make your purchase of a driving experience gift with Trackdays, there's also a few things to consider. You will, in most cases, be able to change the date of your booking if you go for a dated driving voucher, although bear in mind that these may be subject to notice periods and applicable handling fees.

It's also worth noting that all driving experiences, including vehicle and date availability at specific venues, may vary between locations, so we recommend that you always check and read through carefully before you make your booking.

Certain venues also only have a limited amount of dates available to book each year, or may be busier at certain times of the year than others. It's therefore advised that you redeem and use your voucher as early as possible to book onto an event.

All gift vouchers are available to redeem and use within 10 months of purchase as standard, but if you want more time to redeem and use it, you can extend the validity of the voucher to 14 months at checkout for an additional fee.

Don't forget that you're always welcome to contact our Customer Service team either on our Live Chat facility or over the phone if you need help. They have a wealth of experience and knowledge, as well as good contact with our network of suppliers, and they will always be happy to assist you so you can make the right choice.
