Yes. We know doing an activity as a family can be expensive if you need to kit out everyone, so all the gear you need is included in the cost of the family gift voucher.

We can do that! It could be something fancy like an exclusive helicopter charter, or a hot air balloon ride. We’ve also got unusual weekends away for parents and offspring to enjoy, daredevil antics and more.

• Could these family experiences turn into a new hobby for us all?
Quite possibly!. Lots of families enjoy giving new sports like archery, clay pigeon shooting and karting a go, so much so that they continue after their experience. Who knows, you could be nurturing a future Olympic star or F1 champ?

• Are there any hidden extras to cover in the cost of our family day out?
Any extra costs that are payable locally will be clearly shown on each experience page. It could be for things like coveralls that can be bought for a couple of pounds, or photos and videos of your activity that are available to purchase, which are optional add-ons.

• Can extended family/friends come and watch us?
It depends on the nature of the activity you’ve chosen as a family, but in general, yes Gran and Grandad and your family friends can watch at least part of your activity (for example, wave you off on a sightseeing flight, watch you from the pit lane on your drive and so on).

• Can the family dog come along too?
We know your dog is an integral part of the family, but you won’t be able to share you family day out with your four-legged friend. Just make sure you take plenty of photos and videos to show Fido when you get back home!
