COMPARE ALL
Tractor Driving Experience in Glasgow
Glasgow gives you the full current tractor driving range, with all four experience choices available at Bishopton Field.
Start with 30 minutes for your first proper go, spend a full hour at the controls, take the two hour solo experience, or bring somebody else along for Double Trouble.
The venue is out at Bishopton in Renfrewshire rather than in the middle of Glasgow, which is exactly where you would rather find a large agricultural tractor ready and waiting for you.
From Arrival to
Your Turn at the Wheel
You arrive, meet the instructor, go through the safety briefing and get familiar with the tractor before the driving starts. Then it is your turn to take the controls.
Glasgow currently offers 30 minute, 60 minute and two hour solo experiences, plus the option for two people. The amount of time changes; the basic route from briefing to driving does not.
Arrive & Get Briefed
Meet the instructor, get welcomed in and go through the safety briefing before you get anywhere near the controls.
Meet the Tractor
Get shown around the modern agricultural tractor and the controls you will need before you start driving.
Take the Controls
This is the important bit. Once the briefing and familiarisation are done, you get behind the wheel and drive the tractor yourself.
Get Stuck In
Once the basics are covered, the rest of the session is about getting comfortable with the machine and making the most of the tractor time.
This Isn’t a Tractor Ride
You’re not climbing aboard to watch somebody else demonstrate the machinery. After the welcome, safety briefing and familiarisation, you take the controls.
At Bishopton Field, the current experiences use a modern agricultural tractor, with instruction before you start driving. You’ll be shown around the cab and controls first, so you know what does what before it is your turn at the wheel.
And with the full choice available here, you can decide whether 30 minutes will scratch the itch, an hour sounds more like it, or whether you might as well admit now that you want the full two hours. There is also Double Trouble if somebody else wants in on the act.
Which Glasgow Tractor Experience Should You Choose?
Bishopton gives you the full range, so this really comes down to how long you want at the controls and whether you are keeping the tractor to yourself.
“I have no idea what I’m doing, but I’ve always wanted to drive a tractor. What could go wrong?”
“Thirty minutes sounds suspiciously sensible. I want enough time to work those levers and show the world my skills.”
“I have waited long enough. Give me the tractor, point me at the controls and clear the area!”
“We came together. We’re both driving. The tractor will just have to cope. Or not.”
A Surprisingly Easy Gift Decision
If someone in your life has ever stopped mid-conversation because a particularly impressive tractor has gone past, you may already have enough information.
Open-dated vouchers are available, so the recipient can arrange the driving date later. You simply have to decide how much tractor seems appropriate.
