1. Introductory Flight Lessons
If he’s an avid aviation enthusiast, he’s sure to appreciate finding an introductory flying lesson under the Christmas tree. After a year he’s been inevitably stuck with two feet on the ground, let him live out his childhood dreams of being a pilot. Whether airplanes, helicopters or gliders are his speed, he can take the prime spot in the pilot’s seat and head for the skies. With expert guidance from an instructor throughout the flight, he’ll be in full control and flying into the wild blue yonder.
2. Race a Lamborghini
This holiday season, if you want to be on the podium of gifting, all you have to do is treat the gearhead in your life to a driving day, where he’ll race a Lamborghini. Notorious for wild styling, world-renowned for exquisite performance, Lamborghini doesn’t cut corners when it comes to motors, and he can experience it all. He’ll put the pedal to metal racing a Lamborghini down the straightaway and around the apexes of a real racetrack. With circuits awaiting across the country, he’s sure to end the day feeling like a real race car driver.
Pro tip: Beyond Lamborghinis, we also offer bucket-list-worthy driving experiences in Ferraris, Porsches, Corvettes, Aston Martins, NASCAR-style stock cars, dragsters, and more.
3. Indoor Skydiving
Is your boyfriend always on the hunt for his next adrenaline fix? If so, you’ll really sweep him off his feet when he unwraps an indoor skydiving experience. A sure-fire way to get his heart racing, he’ll step inside the state-of-the-art vertical wind tunnel as he flies, free-falls and plummets through the air. With a variety of locations across the US on offer, this is a great gift he won’t be rushing to forget.
