Details for the One Day Tractor Driving Course For Two - Wiltshire

Product ID: 18044

You and a fellow agricultural vehicle enthusiast could be learning how to drive a tractor on this exclusive and fully immersive one day driving course voucher for two at Rowdefield Farm in Devizes in Wiltshire! And it's not just learning how to drive a tractor, but also how to operate it whilst using many of the tools and attachments that are part of modern farming practices and agriculture. The day will begin with you both driving a versatile and commonly used tractor - the Massey Ferguson 3635 - whilst navigating around a dedicated course with a trailer attached. From there, you'll move onto the daddy of all farm tractors - a John Deere - best known for its high power and suitability for heavy duty agricultural use. And you won't just be driving it, you'll also be operating the clever in-built three point linkage system, which enables it to be plugged into various implements, and you'll be able to operate its three heavy duty arms to hoist, control and pull the various attachments. The course is run by an expert instructor in a safe and controlled environment, and for tractor lovers this is one experience you won't want to miss out on!
