Great way for young people to experience driving. All teachers have been friendly and explain after each lesson what they did. A log book is completed to keep track of progress.

Our daughter had loved her session
Our daughter had loved her session. A great start to her life behind the wheel. The booking was easy with lots of time slots to choose from. On the day her instructor clearly explained everything as they went and had the patience of a saint!

Great initiative with great instructors. Signposting to venue (Ingliston) could have been better, but my two Young Drivers had a great time on their lessons. Will definitely be booking again.

Worth every penny
My Grandson is 13 years old and after 19 lessons is well on his way to being a well trained driver. This will benefit both him and other road users once he passes his test in the years to come. Giving him this excellent training at this time is not only fun for him but ensures that he learns correctly. The team are all great and it is worth every penny. Great job and I can highly recommend.
Highly recommended, don’t hesitate to book.
Purchased a block booking of 4 hourly lessons at Church Fenton for my son who starts his road lessons in January. The instructors were great and always reported how he had done, what they had gone through and anything he was struggling with. I was concerned that it would be more of a fun experience than proper instruction, but absolutely not, they taught him all the basic skills and what to expect. Would definitely recommend Young Driver sessions before they hit the road for real to give them the basic skills. Don’t hesitate.
2nd time experience
My daughters 2nd go at young drivers experience - she learnt so much more this time around and Stoneleigh park is a fabulous place to do it at. Plenty of space with lots of things to try such as turn in road, bay parking, reversing turns, so much better than the first small venue we went too.
She had a fantastic instructor called Rachel who gave great direction but also let her figure out minor issues herself which allowed her to learn.
A great experience

Experienced instructors who do a great job teaching the youngsters - informative and engaging. Experience overall is very well organised
Easy to book
Easy to book. Good price and a great experience for my 16 year old who wanted to get some practice before he can start having driving lessons on the road.
Great experience
Purchased an hours driving experience for my son's 12th birthday. The venue at Cribbs Causeway was really easy to find. Check in was quick and my son was allocated his instructor, Ahmed. Ahmed was friendly and made my son feel at ease. He loved his experience and I think it's a great way to introduce kids to safe driving practices long before they get anywhere near a public road.
Excellent experience
Excellent experience, my daughter thoroughly enjoyed it, would recommend to anyone to do it.
Young Driver experience
Booked the Young Driver experience for my 16 year old at Bicester; she thoroughly enjoyed herself! I would definitely recommend this for any young person who is keen to learn how to drive, prior to turning 17.
A great experience and well run.
Some of these types of experiences don't deliver and are often watered down but my 14yr old son was allowed to drive a proper car for a full 30 minutes as advertised and he was over the moon. No time wasting, nothing diluted and we'll be sure to go back again. His instructor was brilliant.
Young Driver Fire Truck driving experience
Hugh was the fire truck driving instructor for my 11 year old Nephew. A wonderfully calm, friendly and patient man who made the experience exactly what it should have been, fun and memorable.
Smiles for miles!!
All staff were friendly, instructions were clear and easy, location (the old Top Gear track) is always going to be a hit for young and older petrol heads alike. Booking online was easy with follow up emails detailing further information and contact info for the company.
This wasn't first time to driving experiences at this venue and it never fails to impress.
