Itinerary

Yes, it is an absolute truth. Now you can see how it is to ride a tank in Riga. It is one of the craziest activities to do while visiting Riga and the Baltics.

During the experience, you will have a chance to take a ride accompanied by the instructor with this nightly beast along the roads, meadows, and shrubs. And over the period fully experience the vehicle’s technical features, as well as learn more about its history. Please note the driving the tank itself by yourself is not supported by this activity, due to the safety reasons, however, you will have a chance to sit by the steering wheel in the driver’s cabin and feel the vibe and feeling of being in charge of this vehicle.

For the duration of the tour, you will be fully equipped with proper safety equipment and military attributes like helmets, armour vests, etc.

Additionally, after the tour, you can go for a variety of other great on-site activities like a Laser-tag, Location Orientation Game, etc.
