You will soon be feeling like an expert as the instructor shows you the basics of driving off-road.

What happens on the day?
On arrival at the centre you will normally be asked to sign an indemnity form which will also require parental/guardian signature for under 18s. Your session will usually be shared with other drivers, with each of you taking it in turns at driving and riding as a passenger.
You will be given an initial briefing, followed by detailed training before being allowed to drive the vehicle yourself under guidance of the instructor once you are judged to be safe enough behind the wheel. After your experience driving the 4x4 you will receive a certificate marking your achievement.

4 X 4 Junior off road experience
This was a Christmas present we bought for our 15 year old son. Booking with the actual venue was efficient and the staff friendly. Both my son and his dad went, (although you could take a further two passengers), son did all the driving, car being an automatic. The instructor was very knowledgeable and patient, my son had a brilliant time as did his dad, but with it being off road you do get "thrown" about a bit in the car. I will definitely be getting this experience again.
