Bushcraft is all about Mother Nature. It's using what nature gives you to eat, drink, shelter and survive in the great outdoors. It can include everything from hunting for food, sleeping under the stars and navigating your way around your environment. In essence, it's going off-grid for a while in the great outdoors!

We offer some specific bushcraft courses that have been specifically devised for families to enjoy together. Whether you go into the wild for one day or a weekend, it's going to be loads more fun than the usual camping trip. Kids just love the foraging, shelter building and camp fire tasks.

No, thankfully not. It's not about z-list celebs taking part in staged tasks involving thousands of insects. You'll be learning proper outdoor skills so you can survive in the forest, jungle or wherever!

While nothing can be as extreme as Bear climbing inside a dead camel to sleep overnight in the desert, we do have some quite gnarly survival weekends and experiences on offer. In fact, they have been designed and curated by the great man himself, so you can see if you've got what it takes to survive in the wild just like Bear Grylls.

There's certainly an element of this for some of these experiences. You definitely need to be in the right frame of mind for these courses. Whilst some are more physical, others need you to think laterally. When it comes to actual requirements, each product page lists any restrictions for that particular activity, so make sure you read through the full details.

Yep! Shock, horror, you might actually find yourself somewhere with no wifi coverage! There won't be any Egyptian cotton sheets, electric kettles, takeaway delivery services or TV, it's all about surviving with what Mother Nature provides.

Yes - and you'll have to lie in it too! In all seriousness, one of the main parts of the overnight bushcraft courses is working with your fellow outdoor survivalists to build a suitable shelter for the night. Called a bivouac, it might not be a 5* hotel, but it will keep you warm and dry!

Once you've bought your voucher and booked your date with the supplier, they will let you what you can and can't bring to the day with you. It's always advisable to leave valuables at home and remember, you won't need any specialist or technical gear - if needed this will be provided for you. If you're unsure of anything, don't hesitate to contact us via the online chat, email or 'phone.

It depends entirely on what you're doing, but we've got one top tip for you. Make sure your footwear is suitable and comfortable! There's nothing worse than soggy feet or blisters. Other than that, it's generally sports or outdoor clothing that you'll need to wear.

On some of the overnight courses you might be required to bring a sleeping bag with you and a set of camping-style eating utensils, like an unbreakable mug, plate and cutlery. The suppliers will give detailed guidance on what you should pack. More details can be found on each individual product page.

This is what nearly everyone on a bushcraft course is most excited about doing! For those experiences where fire lighting is part of the programme, you will indeed be shown how to make a campfire, light it and keep it going.

If meals are included in your course, you may be hunting for the food yourself! On the more extreme survival courses you'll be setting traps for rabbits, skinning them and cooking them - but only if you want to. On other courses it's more of a camping affair, with your instructors providing the rations. On shorter taster experiences meals are usually not part of the programme.

Foraging is searching for and gathering wild food sources. It could include picking wild mushrooms, berries, nuts, fruits, plants and leaves. Anything which is edible. It's quite a skill to know what you can and can't eat, so best left to the experts to show you during your experience. We have in-depth foraging courses too if it's something you really want to get into.

Some of the courses do have hunting on the programme. You're not obliged to take part or even watch though. Most of the courses use more foraging techniques to provide food to be cooked with food brought in by the instructing team.

On our popular spy experiences you will learn typical spy skills. From hand to hand combat and sniper skills, to laser beam avoidance and listening devices, you'll delve into the sometimes murky world of espionage. Brilliant fun and we have courses specifically aimed at kids too.

Yes, it can be, but without the sharp suits and the Aston Martin cars. If you do fancy whizzing around in a fancy Bond-style motor, you can book that over in the  Aston Martin experiences listings  over in our supercars section.

These are really popular right now in the UK. It's a modern take on an army obstacle course. It involves running, climbing, sliding, crawling and jumping your way across a gruelling outdoor obstacle course where you will, of course, get very muddy. There are no big prizes at the end of it, it's all about the honour of having survived all that mud and water!

Yes we do. We've got mud runs and obstacles races that will test your mettle to the max. Why not get a group of you together to take part? You'll need guts and enthusiasm for these experiences, but you'll feel exhilarated when you cross that finish line!
