Ever dreamt of driving a massive truck? Now's your chance with our exhilarating DAF Lorry Driving Experience! You don’t need a special license to hop into the driver's seat of one of these impressive DAF lorries. Just climb aboard, grab a snack, and get ready for an unforgettable journey!
The DAF XF, known for its huge 480bhp and remarkable torque, stands out as a powerhouse in the trucking world. Built in the UK, this lorry was even named the International Lorry of the Year in 2007. Picture yourself maneuvering a 55ft giant equipped with a trailer designed for transporting cars on our specially designed off-road circuit.
Inside the snug cab, you'll be delighted by the air-suspended driver's seat, air conditioning, and even a sleeper berth. Your elevated view will make you feel like a true road warrior. With a wraparound console dashboard, everything you need is right at your fingertips, making this driving experience so much more than just hopping in a car.
Under the guidance of a professional lorry driver, you'll navigate courses and tackle tricky reversing maneuvers using only your side mirrors,there’s no rear-view mirror here! This unique challenge means you’ll truly learn the art of truck driving.
And if you feel like extending the adventure, consider trying a tank driving activity afterward for another unforgettable experience. Browse our main gift ideas section for even more memorable gifts for the action enthusiast in your life!
