What do you buy the man who has everything? Some guys literally have it all; the latest iPhone, all the car gadgets, a Rolex watch, and just about every device one could wish for. Well, even the man who has it all is missing certain things, namely experiences, and in this short article, we take a look at some amazing experience gifts that are available here in Australia.
- Racing car experience – If your man loves raw speed and power, the V8 Experience is for him; after some classroom theory, he suits up and gets behind the wheel of a top V8 race car. Classic V8 Australian race cars are waiting to give the driver an unforgettable experience, pushing the beast to her limits on those straights, bedding in on the curves, and managing huge amounts of horsepower. He might prefer a few laps in a Lamborghini or Ferrari; a fleet of jaw-dropping supercars is ready and waiting. Click here for tips on maintaining your car.
- Tandem skydive – A mind-blowing leap from a light aircraft at 12,000 ft, which gives you a few minutes of total freefall; don’t worry, your man will be harnessed to a skydiving instructor who is in complete control. Who knows, this could be the start of something new in his life! Many become obsessed with jumping out of planes at high altitudes; all it takes is a taste!
- Deep sea fishing – Most guys love to fish and who wouldn’t want a chance to hook a monster marlin? A day trip is an all-inclusive gig; all he needs is the right gear for the weather and the boat provides the rest. The fishing equipment, the bait, and even snacks are provided and should you hook a big fish, you get strapped into the chair and engage in an awesome fight with a huge fish. There are fishing tour operators out of Brisbane and Melbourne and they can easily be located with a Google search.
- Flying lessons – If he loves driving, the chances are he is into flying, and with very little instruction, your man can take the controls of a light aircraft; an introductory flight is an ideal way to discover whether flying is for you. The entire experience would cover 3-4 hours and would include a walk around the aircraft for orientation, a short classroom session, and then off you go! The instructor takes off, reaches a certain altitude, then hands you the controls and you get to fly for a while. Depending on your progress, a few maneuvers might also be included.
- Surfing lessons – If he is a watersports guy, why not buy him a basic surfing course; a day on the surf at Bondi would be a wonderful gift that every man would love. Once you master the balance, surfing is a breeze!
Birthdays are special times and we hope that the above ideas help you to surprise your guy with an experience gift he will never forget!
