Dig This!

"Driving Big Machines at Dig This How much fun can it possibly be to maneuver excavators, dig holes in dirt and carry heavy stuff around? It turns that this having your hands on the controls of heavy machinery is a lot of fun! Dig This is essentially an adult's playground (ages 14+) where you get to sit in the seat and control bulldozers, excavators and other massive construction vehicles. The Dig This experience includes a safety briefing and lots of one-on-one coaching as you learn how to handle these giants moving through the dirt in an off-Strip location. Once you have a general feel for how things work, instructors help guide you through a series of exercises so you can dig trenches, drive over huge mounds and perfect the finer details of operation by placing basketballs on top of cones. There is a lot of power at your fingertips when you participate in Dig This, and it's fun to discover just how much one of these seemingly average construction vehicles can actually do! A quick note: While it's true that lots of guys are attracted to Dig This, don't let this detract you, ladies! Plenty of women put on neon-colored vests, roll up their sleeves and dominate the exercises every day! By AFAR Traveler , AFAR Local Expert"
