2.Great British Classic Car Driving Experience

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 96 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $74

Drive a classic British car, explore 29 vehicles, enjoy museum entry and café credit at this nostalgic East Midlands experience.

“This is a fantastic museum with so many wonderful cars on display, and an audio tour for both adults and children to make it even more interesting. The drive dad's car experience is phenominal, with such knowledgable and enthusiastic instructors. Again, it is great that even children can get involved and drive a classic mini, or have a go in a mini landrover if they are not quite old enough for the Junior Drive. The Delorean experience looks good fun too, but we ran out of time for that!”
