Predator Adventures with the Seabreacher Experience

We at the Amazing Blog sent Simon to explore...

So here’s a question - do you ever watch David Attenborough’s latest watery adventure, and from the relative safety of the living room sectional, thinking ‘hell yeah, I wish I could dive like that?’ Now is your chance, thanks to last year's launch of Predator Adventures and the Seabreacher. The Amazing Blog just loves the fact that you can literally become an 18-foot long killer whale - or perhaps a dolphin in our case, gliding majestically along the River Thames. It is undoubtedly one of the most innovative and exciting options for the metropolitan adrenaline junkie. 

To see for yourself how fun this adventure can be, check out this video. Who doesn't want to give this one a go? Whilst protected by the elements with the F-16 Fighter Grade glass cockpit, you get to live out that Top Gun fantasy. With speeds up to 60 mph above the water, or 40mph below the surface, you will also get to jump 18-feet or dive to 6-feet, it’s one hell of a way to get your heartbeat racing.

Tickets cost from £89.00 (book here) for 20 minutes or £104 for 30 minutes. They also currently have an offer of two people for £189, for 30 minutes.  You can choose your preferred level of adventure: Dare To Conquer, Weekday Blast, or The Ultimate Thrill. However, children have to be over the age of 8-years-old. The demand for a fantastic way to spend 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the level, is going to be huge. So get in there fast and be ready to experience something unique. If you see a BBC camera crew jostling for a picture on the embankment - SMILE! You could be fronting Blue Planet’s opening titles on the new series!

An Inmate Themed Night Out:

If like us at The Amazing Blog you're always looking for a unique way to spend a night out on the town with friends or a loved one. Well, look no further than Alcotraz - London’s own prison-themed cocktail bar. Alcotraz provides guests with an adventurous twist on an average night out in London.

Alcotraz is definitely not your typical bar experience. When you arrive at Alcotraz you
become an inmate
. Inmates change into orange jumpsuits and pose for their mugshots, just like actual prisoners. Individuals must find a way to smuggle their liquor of choice past the
intimidating warden and into the prison. Inside the prison, there are actors stationed as guards, who can assist you in sneaking your alcohol past the warden.

If you successfully make it past the warden with your alcohol, you will arrive at the
prison’s secret bar where other inmates can serve you drinks. To make the prison scene more
realistic, there is no set drink menu at the bar. Rather, guests have to customize their own drinks and work with the ingredients provided at the bar. With prison cells as the perfect backdrop,Alcotraz is sure to be a memorable night out for all guests in attendance.

Alcotraz is open on Wednesday nights from 6:15pm - 10:15pm. On Thursday, Friday and
Saturday nights Alcotraz is open from 5:00pm - 11:15pm. A limited amount of tickets are
available here for £33.99. With the purchase of a ticket to Alcotraz guests are given an hour
and 45 minutes inside the prison and four drinks. We would suggest booking in advance because tickets are selling out fast!

Winterland evenings in London

If the February weather has you feeling down, look no further than an evening at Winterland in Fulham to lift your spirits! We here at The Amazing Blog are always on the hunt for a fun and unique way to spend a night out with friends and loved ones, so when we heard that Winterland was re-opening their doors due to popular demand, we knew we had to book our tickets straight away.

This event is the perfect way to impress someone on a date night by dining in an igloo that overlooks the river or even just another way to gather up all your friends for an unforgettable night out. Step into the enchanted forest and explore a world full of delicious wood-fired pizzas and fondues, while you warm-up with hot toddies or mulled wine. Of course, there is a full bar so you can be sure to find a drink to suit your tastes. 

Once you’ve satisfied your cravings, you can then head on down for a round of mini-golf. If that isn’t your cup of tea, gather up a team for a game of curling or even try out a game of ping-pong and then beer (or Prosecco) pong; perfect for a duo. And what better way to end a night out than singing along to your favorite songs in their new Karaoke booth.

Winterland is open February 2nd – March 10th from 6pm-11pm on Thursday and Friday and 2pm-11pm on Saturday. General entry tickets are available in limited amounts at the door for £5 per person, but we think it’s best to book entry tickets as well as seating and activities, which vary in price, online here in advance to guarantee the best spot!
