Tank Driving Experiences

  What an experience!!! - We did the private tank car crush driving and it was an experience we will remember forever! Nick and the team are super helpful and knowledgable, the tanks are incredible,... read more especially the Sherman which we had the pleasure of riding/crushing a Peugeot. I could not recommend them more, especially for a corporate event or a private day of fun! Awesome place, so glad we found it - We'll be back!!

  Amazing Day  - I got this experience for my son who is 15 and an army cadets. He had the best day, and enjoyed the whole day. He learnt so much and would... read more love to be a volunteer, he enjoyed it that much.
Thank you for a brilliant day!

  Why YOU should visit Tanks-Alot  - I booked the "private crushing" experience as a surprise for my dad’s 70th birthday with two spectators. The process beforehand was very smooth. Vanessa always replied very quickly to... read more all my questions and provided clear explanations. On the day itself we arrived a bit late, because of traffic. We informed the staff at Tanks-Alot and it was not a problem. We were greeted in a friendly way and met our instructor Max. Max told us that the day would be about us and that we were allowed to climb any vehicle we wanted to and we could have as many photo opportunities as we wanted (he wasn't kidding and even after over hundreds of photo's he still was patient enough to wait). We got to drive the 443 and the Abbot SPG ourselves. No clip or photo can show how amazing it is to drive these machines and how much fun it is. Max was patient and clear in his instructions and he really made sure we had a great time driving these machines. We then went to the armory with an enormous collection of deactivated firearms (hundreds), where you get overwhelmed with where to begin looking and asking questions about. Luckily Max gave the suggestion to talk about the history of British weapons from the 16th Century up until modern day (which I can recommend listening to). Of course he filled it with typical British humor which made it fun, even if you don't know much about firearms. We then concluded the experience with my dad driving a Chieftain tank over an actual car, again amazing and difficult to explain how awesome that is. Tanks-alot also has a lot of plans for the future of adding old tanks to their big list of vehicles you can drive. It is expensive, but more than worth the money, considering what you get out of it. I can definitely say I will return in the future to try out these new vehicles. I rate this experience 10/10 and I want to specially thank Vanessa and Max for the good care, the laughs and making it a day me and my dad will never forget.

  Private Car Crush  - This was a present for my wife's 60th birthday. We had a fantastic time learning to drive different the tanks, and the car crush in the Chieftain was the 'icing... read more on the cake'.

  Beaming happy son - Went on the full Monty experience as a spectator with Son as the driver. Experience was for his 21st birthday present. Didn't matter he wasn't in a group just him... read more as driver with me and his sister as spectators. lots of people their on there own or with a spectator or 2. Couple of people in groups of 2 or 3 or couples. John (my son) came of the the 4 vehicles he drove beaming, and John really isn't the beaming type. Even laughing after driving the Springer, this was because they had gone up a bank, Instructor laughing as John had apparently tried to kill him.
Spectators took part in the lighting fire in the wood and had little ride in Armed personal carrier and held a lot of different guns as instructor told us all about them. John had another attempt at trying to kill someone, this time his sister, because at the end of the our day John drove a tank that let on his Spector's me in hole in top of tank and his sister holding on the top the tank she her bottom came of the top of the tank as i think he took the "fun" bumpy track. John also shot a musket , archery and clay pigeon shooting.

  Best day ever 😁  - Booked the full monty tank day for my husband & it did not disappoint. We had the best day, I was a spectator & even though I was following him... read more around it was so inclusive. I got to ride in the top of a huge tank whilst he drove & I got to drive a off road buggy at speed, which I was nervous about but the instructor really encouraged me to put my foot down. My husband LOVED it, he drove a number of different military vehicles, he shot clays, & we learned survival skills. Lots of tea/coffee & a hot lunch provided. All the team/instructors were so friendly & funny, good banter. 5 ⭐ best day ever 😁
