They arent bad but they are more expensive than booking direct.

I did one of these a couple of years ago.

Very enjoyable, reasonable value, and I came close to booking a course to get a gliding liecence. I might still do it when I stop spending money on bikes, - well no chance of that then!

i got a spa day experience for my birthday. I was so sore the next day that I could hardly move and had to take pain killers - all from a massage !!!

Bought one for my gf's birthday at the beginning of the year, but will be looking to get a refund on it methinks ... the dates available for the activities are a bit too restrictive for us :(

My girlfriend and her friend alway buy each other Spa days and they seem to enjoy it.

She once bought me a ferrari day at bruntingthorpe which I also enjoyed.

It started off with 4 laps in an old subaru impreza. The last car was the ferrari which was meant to be a 355 race car, but ended up being a 360 Spyder which was just as good. I got 6 laps in this and they pretty much after 2 laps let you drive how you like providing your not crunching gears etc. I topped 175 on the main straight.

Its defo a good day, my day was just a cheap one, I think it was £105 but it was still decent.

Did a rallying day at Brands Hatch about 8 years ago in a Cosworth Escort, great fun, expensive for what it was, but it was a birthday present so...!!

I did a Ferrari + Formula Ford day at Donington, which was a hell of a buzz - it just hurt like hell the day after, fighting with the single seater for half a dozen laps
