How long will it last, and how much drive time will I get?
This completely private experience (just for you and your group) lasts around 1 Hour from your chosen start time to finish. The driving time will vary depending on your chosen option during booking, choosing between a 2km off-road Tank Trek providing around 15+ Minutes of Tank Driving, a longer 4km route Tank Tour with 30+ Minutes of driving, or the Ultimate, 45+ Minute Tank Trailblazer which incorporates a longer route with some even more adventurous exploration of our huge site.
To book, simply contact us with your voucher number, and we’ll arrange a date and time that suits you. When you arrive on the day, and before you drive each vehicle, we’ll provide some basic knowledge of the vehicle, including guidance on its safe operation. If you bring guests, they will need to wait in the safety of the compound, or you can upgrade your experience, and we take them out in a chase vehicle to follow your fun in an exciting off-road Military Safari – ideal for them to take photos or video from a safe and advantages viewing position throughout the experience, if you upgrade your drive with a Military Safari and if you wish some of your drive time can be exchanged for an instructor-led ride in the Tank for everyone to experience it.
Throughout the private driving experience, you will have plenty of time to drive. You will always be under the supervision of our expert instructor, ready to answer questions and provide guidance. After your session, we will return you to the base for photos with our other Military Machines and some well-earned Tea and Cake.

I went for a bit of Airsoft at the Imperium site near Canterbury and left a tank commander! Loved the quad bikes and the 4x4 experience of driving military vehicles on rough terrain. Great fun and a day well spent with friends and family.
Visiting family in Canterbury for "Family time", another dull weekend!:/ Not this time, they had arranged an awesome day with Imperium down the road in Faversham.. Best day ever!! Quad bikes were so much fun, super powerful, the course was both fun and challenging.. All the Team are friendly and put us all at ease - Some of us have only ridden a push bike!! Who would of thought Quad biking could be so much fun. The instructor made learning a new skill extremely enjoyable.. Tank drive next time for sure.. Thanks again to Jim and the Imperium Team. See you soon. The A Team:)
I was looking for quad biking near Canterbury and found Imperium adventures.We went as a group and we were met with a welcoming atmosphere.The location is great and easy to get to .The staff were friendly and very helpful, they were patient with the amateurs and the experienced amongst our group and we could all follow their instructions easily.While it was thrilling to ride all the vehicles and our excitement levels were high, we felt safe at all times and all our needs and questions were met with professionalism.Highly recommended, can't wait to go back !
Bought the go kart experience as a gift for my partner for his bday. We went together in January. Couldn't recommend it enough, we had so much fun, the instructor was great and we haven't stopped talking about it since!
What a fantastic day!!!Jim and his team could not be more welcoming, going above and beyond for our group.The APC and Unimog were my particular favourites although the G-Wagon took a lot of finesse and a bit more technical to drive through the deep ruts, wading through the deeper water and climbing the slippery steeper undulation!Highly recommended for a good laugh, great experience and come away having learnt something new!
excellent afternoon!! I had the tank driving experience for my 40th birthday surprise, it was great I cannot recommend this enough 10/10
My son Craig bought me a full experience for my 70th birthday, what a present fantastic, the instructors were very knowledgeable and patient. What a bucket list gift. A massive thank you!
The tank driving experience was a 70th birthday gift. Paul and Sam were very friendly and welcoming. Great tuition and the actual driving was fantastic fun. The rest of the family enjoyed the safari truck to watch and take photos.We all had a great day, 10 out of 10.
Absolutely fab afternoon - I drove the G wagon, the Unimog and the tank and it was so much fun. Jim is very patient and even took me to and from the station. Highly recommended.
Totally awesome session in the Unimog - can't recommend the guys highly enough. Thanks Paul for great instruction, & it comes with a good upper body workout too! 😅
Absolutely brilliant day. I got to drive the tank and the unimog as a birthday present. Clive was so good and welcoming. He was really reassuring and made the experience fun and exciting. Highly recommend as this is a must do experience. The course is great with lots of obstacles to navigate
Thank you so much for an amazing day! I bought the tank driving experience for my partner and he totally loved it 🪖❤️ he has said he wants to go back already hahaReally lovely guys and super helpful. They even let me follow around in the back of a mog and take photos 📸Would highly recommend 👌 💯💯💯
I wanted to book a military experience for my military mad son for his 10th Birthday, and having looked all over came across Tanks’N’Trucks. I can honestly say they really delivered and the end experience was something I never imagined he could be part of. From my initial enquiry trying to see if it would be possible for him to have an experience, to his end party with 5 friends, the team continued to impress. Anyone looking for a party with a difference for your child, I strongly recommend one here.The level of professionalism from everyone involved throughout, and the organisation and energised experience on the day was second to none.The team ensured no time was wasted and the children experienced a good length of ride in a range of vehicles, including a tank and they also got to experience shooting with different weapons. All of the children were constantly praised and hearing the excitement in their voices throughout was lovely.The whole experience was amazing, but for me being able to ride alongside my son as he drove the Unimog completed it. Jim’s calm and patient nature, (mine less so) made sure he remained confident throughout and had the biggest smile.Throughout the afternoon all I kept hearing from children and parents alike was, that it was the best party they had ever been to. So Thank You to an amazing and passionate team, for making a little boy, his mum and his friends very happy. We look forward to coming again for another driving experience soon!
I received the tank driving experience as a Birthday present from my husband, and it definitely was one of the best things I’ve ever done. A tank is probably the coolest and most fun thing I’ve ever thought of driving (for now). It is surprisingly responsive to steering! Loved every minute of it.The way everything was organised was very thorough: first, we both got to ride in the back of the tank as passengers, to get a feel for it. I was given a noise-cancelling headset with a mic so I could hear and speak with Paul over the noise of the tank, and protective glasses. The instruction from Paul was clear and thorough. I knew what I was doing and why.My husband was in a Pinzgauer truck with Jim driving, and they went chasing after the tank, stopping to take pictures, so he had a great time too.The site is quite big and it is a proper off-road course.Jim and Paul are very passionate about what they do; it was great to have a chat with them over a tea after the drive.Before this review gets too long - an unforgettable experience. Super happy and hoping to coming back!
