Ever fancied booking a private helicopter flight? These exclusive helicopter charters over Kent might sound over-extravagant but they are actually great value if there are four of you. & if you do want to make the ultimate gesture for a loved one you can book it for just the two of you making for a pretty cool way to go top-notch on the romance! You can charter a helicopter out of Manston or Rochester airports. Both are in Kent & both boast a plethora of sightseeing all around them. Manston is of course famous for having been RAF Manston & is where you'll see a Spitfire & Hurricane Memorial & RAF Museum still on site today. Chartering a private helicopter from Manston means you're in the heart of Thanet surrounded by Kentish coastline & country. If you choose Rochester as your private hire base you're right next to the River Medway & just south of historic Chatham & the estuary which are both steeped in history. It's also on the cusp of Greater London as we know... ...

Take time out for a day of traditional Thames river fishing! Far from the hustle & bustle of city life you'll find the ultimate in tranquility in these private fishing experiences on the Thames in Berkshire. Your host will be expert angler Steve Roberts who knows these waters well. In fact as a six year old boy he caught his first fish from the Thames. It's still his favourite place to go fishing in particular the weir pools at Pangbourne. What makes these Thames fishing experiences so unique is that they are in homage to the Thames Professional fishermen of years gone by who took their gentleman anglers fishing. Everything is authentic right down to the split cane rods & centrepin reels Steve favours. You'll even be sat on a traditional wicker seat basket too in the very punt owned by the previous 'last Thames Professional' fisherman. Steve is a superb host. He certainly knows his stuff & is an Angling Trust qualified fishing coach & associate member of the Game Angling Instructors Association. He's a friendly & softly-spoken chap who loves nothing more than to show you the delights of 'old school' fishing using equipment that could be up to 100 years old which 'still works as well as it's always done' as Steve will show you. There are some great fishing places on this part of the Thames. Steve will take you to a part only accessible by boat & secluded by picturesque islands. He'll row you into a private weir pool & using over 30 years of local knowledge have you fishing for the chub pike perch & roach that abound there. With a skilled guide you'll fish the deeps & shallows the rushing streams & the quiet corners your boatman knows so well. As you'll be spending all day fishing the Thames with Steve lunch is included. & it's a 'jolly good lunch' as Steve would say. Made with produce from his own kitchen garden you'll tuck into pork pies cheeses cured meats sandwiches & pickles in the fishing punt under the shade of the overhanging willow trees. If this Thames river fishing day sounds idyllic that's because it is. As soon as you're out on the boat time somehow seems to slow down with Steve at the oars relax with Steve's calm & patient manner which is the perfect atmosphere for getting you in a laid back fishing mood! ...

And there really is nothing quite like the thrill of that freefall feeling as the force of the air distorts your face so much so you think you'll stick like it

- & both will get your nerves buzzing! Whether you're new to off-roading or you've been handling these powerhouse machines for years there is something to challenge everyone at this amazing Somerset venue which is actually on the Bath & West showground site. At this centre you can choose between a 4x 4 Safari & the 4x 4 Trials session both of which will demand concentration & determination from any driver to succeed. If you go for the safari you will be driving a standard Land Rover 4x 4 vehicle one of the many that make up this impressive Somerset fleet. The obstacle safari is a tight twisting course packed with tricky things like seesaws low-lying branches large rocks & deep gullies for you to explore not to mention the 100ft mud run & the 40ft tunnel! And much like ski resorts there are green red & black routes here with the aim of having a run to suit all levels of cross-country competency. Of course your instructor is there to guide you & give advice & tips on how to overcome those bumps & drops but fundamentally it's up to you to get your 4x 4 to the end of this demanding Somerset course. If you fancy trying the off road discipline of trials 4x 4ing this Somerset team is offering experiences in modified Land Rover trucks to tackle the gruelling woodland trials course. We are talking competition-prepared V8 Landys that are usually reserved for the pros with full roll cage & upgraded suspension to name but two of the mods on these mud-munching beasts. As you'll soon learn trial 4x 4 driving is all about throttle control & vehicle positioning as you head straight up wooded banks in the fastest time possible whilst making sure you don't hit any course markers
- or trees for that matter. It's challenging stuff & makes for a unique twist on the usual 4x 4 drive. However you decide to take on your off-roading exploration we're sure you & anyone else interested in dirt-track driving will love our 4x 4 Somerset packages where you'll be getting seriously stuck into a pedal-pounding chassis-crunching driving expedition in a proper off roading Landy!
