The Main Event

Get ready to roll, rumble, and fire! The Scorpion Firing Tank Driving Experience is the kind of adventure that turns a regular driving experience out into a full-blown action movie. Taking place at the Gatwick Aviation Museum, this is your chance to climb inside a real British Army Scorpion Tank and see what it’s like to take the wheel, or the gun!

This epic experience is for two people, so grab your favourite co-pilot (or partner-in-chaos). One of you will take command of the driver’s seat, tackling rough terrain and mastering control of this mighty machine. The other gets the thrilling task of taking aim and firing the tank’s a76mm gun at the target, three shots to hit the mark, so make them count!

Fancy both of you having a go at everything? There’s a voucher option that lets you swap roles, so each of you gets to drive and fire. You’ll both get about 30 minutes of action-packed tank time to show off your skills. It’s teamwork, competition, and pure adrenaline all rolled into one.

And because no great day out is complete without a bit of bonus fun, your experience includes free entry to the Gatwick Aviation Museum. Wander among historic aircraft, learn a bit about aviation history, and maybe brag to onlookers about your impressive tank target practice.

Perfect as a birthday gift, anniversary surprise, or an unforgettable present for anyone who loves adventure. Forget the same old socks or gift cards, this is your chance to give a story they’ll still be telling years from now.
