After a bumpy start as Peter forgot we had one booked but he soon got sorted. I had to stand on seat to navigate and do hand signals to navigate junctions, I eventually found the safety goggles which I probably should have received at start but all in all it was a good experience and the new forest is amazing.

Gift for my son who thoroughly enjoyed it. Drove 2 very different vehicles for an hour. Should have been 3 but one was broken. Owner very friendly and informative. Paid extra to get a more personal experience and time. Definitely recommend.

A very enjoyable day with a knowledgeable instructor. The only disappointment was with one of the vehicles not being roadworthy but still managed to drive two vehicles. Highly recommended.

I bought this for my dads 80th birthday, as he lives in Dorset we found it easily, there were only 2 vehicles available to drive but having said that my dad really enjoyed it. He was the only participant that day so he had extra time, my dad and Peter got on famously as they had a similar military background being in the Guards, they had a lot to talk about. Peter was a very good instructor clear and concise. I was able to ride in the back of the vehicles for £10 extra. All in all a great time was had by all.
