The Main Event

Ever wondered, how hard can it really be to drive a truck? Well now its your chance to find out!

Its time for you to saddle up behind a monster of a vehicle and reign it in to take control.

With their expert truck drivers navigating you through the experience you’ll be led through a specifically designed track where you’ll have to slalom through obstacles and go through a series of challenges – Including reverse parking!

Think you’ve got what it takes to reign the beast? This day is perfect for the competitive type! Please note that the 20 minute session includes all time in the cab including a quick talk through the controls and also any of your own photo taking opportunities.

What about Insurance?

The centres contracted with us hold public liability insurance. We also hold contingency liability cover.

Some operators require customers to complete an indemnity/damage waiver form prior to taking the experience. This may state the driver is liable for a fixed amount of costs should they damage the vehicle whilst driving. Most operators are able to provide additional insurance to cover this at a small additional fee, payable on site. The purchase of this is optional and is in addition to the public liability insurance held by all venues. The full details of any indemnity or damage waiver and additional insurance will be provided by the activity operator. WonderDays is unable to advise or comment on the content or suitability of any such waiver or additional insurance.

How it Works

All you have to do is pay for the experience you wish to purchase and we’ll send a voucher and booking information to you or directly to the recipient, then you just need to check the info and book your experience.

What do I need to wear?

Drivers should wear sensible shoes or trainers for driving and comfy trousers. 

Do all events run in the rain?
Yes, events are run in all weathers unless it is deemed so extreme that is unsafe to be on track.

Do I have to drive quickly?

What happens on the day?
Trucks - There are three truck drivers booked in per hourly session - each with a 20 minute slot. Please note that the 20 minute session includes all time in the cab including a quick talk through the controls and also any of your own photo taking opportunities. For example, if you are booked in for the 10.30am session, please make sure you are signed in by this time, and your unique drive time slot will be between 11am and 12pm. Please do still allow 2-3 hours at the venue in case of any delays.

Photograph and video packages are available on the day, ranging from £25-£60 dependant on the package chosen and footage available.

Are the trucks insured?

Yes but there is a £5,000 damage excess that is payable by the driver if any damage is caused whilst they are behind the wheel. You can cover yourself against the excess with an optional £29 damage waiver (available upon booking or on the day). This is a non-refundable payment. Please ensure you bring a credit card on the day if you are opting out of the damage waiver. This must be a card with a minimum £5000 limit.
