Adventure days out for a family

[Bellenden Belle]

Hello there,

A couple of good friends are getting married. They have three boys and as an alternative to a traditional wedding pressie I wanted to buy the family an outdoor adventure day.

The boys are seven and nine.

They are super adventurous - already taking diving lessons for example.

Any suggestions of a day out near London and something hair-raising they can all try as a a family.

Maximum of ?200 budget- preferably less!

Go Ape in tunbridge wells?!

They did that a few months ago - but yes, along those lines.....

Indoor sky-diving?

I was thinking maybe the Lee Valley Whitewater Centre, but it looks like most of the really fun stuff is only for age 12 and up. If the 7 year old is nearly 8 then they could do kayaking there, but I think that's only on the lake, not on white water.

Boat charter out of Southampton?

Saw videos on Facebook the other day of friends who'd taken their 5yr & 8yr indoor sky diving (the adults had a go too) and it looked fab - def in my list of future activities 😃

Today's time out has a top 10 of 'wild' activities for kids including ice climbing and walking over the dome/O2. They are age dependent though
