10 Best Experiences

Experiencing something new on your holiday can bring something life changing, a new skill or simply a great deal of fun. No matter what your aim or how you tackle something new Maidstone has some unique experiences to offer, together with great places to stay and some lovely places to eat. From soaring in the air, diving into the water or keeping your feet firmly on the ground, look below for some inspiration for your next adventure.

Air - Headcorn Aerodrome offers a variety of experiences that are difficult to come by elsewhere.  Flying a Spitfire is an incredible investment but flying alongside and photographing one over the White Cliffs of Dover is also an affordable alternative. Flights in the open air in a Tiger Moth cockpit, pleasure flights, skydiving and wing walking are all also available at Headcorn.

Water - Sailing, canoeing and paddle boarding are available in the sheltered waters of Mote Park. Additionally, canoe safaris and trips can be experienced along the River Medway.

Land - Take to the trees or high wires, explore on a segway or take a tour of a vineyard, with a spot of wine tasting of course! Or you can have a go at pottery or jewellery making to creating something uniquely yours at a workshop alongside enthusiastic professionals. If you are feeling especially adventurous, you can become a ranger for the day at The Big Cat Sanctuary and get up close and personal with some incredible endangered cats.
