You will meet your expert guide at the departure point and set out towards the Thames Bridge. Your RIB has the advantage of being able to access points that larger boats cannot. The tour may include seeing such landmarks as the London Eye, Shakespeare’s Globe, the House of Parliament, Paul’s Cathedral, the Tower of London and the famous Canary Wharf. This is a perfect trip for a family, and will give you a whole new perspective of London.

The daytime tours consist of a paddle upstream to a pub or restaurant for some nosh, then downstream for the return journey. If you crave to see the quieter side of London then consider the sunrise / sunset paddle which will take you past Hampton Court or Regent’s Canal. You will see a variety of sights, including wildlife as you take in London away from the hustle and bustle.

Your instructor will meet you at the beach, and will help to outfit you and your guest (or just you) with a wetsuit and surfboard that suits your abilities. True beginners will start on the sand – learning the basics of how to surf before taking it out to the waves. Your instructor will assist at all times, giving tips, offering advice and keeping you encouraged until you finally get the hang of it.

In the morning you’ll be taken through basic exercises on a wooden horse or a real pony – depending on your experience. Before the end of the morning you’ll be out on your pony and swinging your stick like a pro! After lunch you’ll be taken through some more training so by the end of the day you and your mates can participate in a real live polo match!

When you arrive you’ll be briefed on safety and how to handle your land yacht. Initially you will sail at a low speed so you can get the hang of steering and stopping your yacht, and then your instructor will let you take a few turns on the figure-eight course. If you show an aptitude of handling you may be permitted to take the yacht out for a gybe turn – an advanced manoeuvre. Each time you handle the yacht you will be able to increase the speeds you reach, making this a fun and exhilarating experience.

While some may be content to admire the Lamborghini from afar, you are not that person. Which is why you need a Lamborghini Gallardo experience. Finally you can get behind the wheel of this coveted supercar and see just what you can get it to do. With a V10, 5L engine and a top speed of 200 mph you will certainly have your work cut out for you!

Please ensure you allow 1½ hours for your Lamborghini experience. When you arrive you’ll meet with your race driving instructor who will take you through a safety briefing and talk about the handling of the car. After picking up a helmet you’ll take a few test laps in the car with your instructor at the wheel, before you get to try yourself. For 3-5 amazing laps you will have the incomparable Lamborghini Gallardo at your mercy! At the end of the experience  you will be presented with a certificate to commemorate your fantastic racing day.

When you arrive you’ll need to sign an indemnity form (parental signature required for over 18) and then you’ll be given a helmet for protection and be introduced to the flag and light signal system for safety. Next you’ll be assigned to a cart and can pull out onto the track. Bring some friends and see just who  has the ‘cahones’ to go the fastest – or challenge yourself to go as fast as you dare.

On your tour you’ll get to see parts of the stadium that are normally off-limits to the public, including the home player’s changing room, player’s tunnels and the dug out.

This is a tour that every Man U fan should take at least once!

When you arrive at your chosen health club you’ll be given a brief tour of the facilities and will be asked to fill out a brief medical questionnaire.
