Your group will get to give operating a bulldozer, digger or skid steer a crack
-
Everybody will receive an on-site safety briefing prior to their experience, and you’ll be fully instructed by a member of our friendly team throughout

Our friendly Dig This team is always on hand and happy to help. If you would like to chat, please contact 0800 151 252 (ext. 3) or reach out via our digital chat assistant below.
It’s fun for everyone! We can accommodate between 5 – 20 guests on the field at any one time. However, if your group is bigger, get in touch with our friendly team to chat through your requirements. Spectators can get in on the fun too. We can host up to 100 people on-site at a time.
Dig This group booking participants will get a turn behind the controls of either a bulldozer, digger, or skid steer. Machines will be selected by a random draw completed by the Dig This team.
All participants must be aged 12 years or older to get amongst the fun. However, little kids will have a ball too – our sandpit is the perfect place for wee digger fans to watch all the action. We also breathalyse everybody before they get out on the field – sorry, if you’ve been drinking you’ll have to sit this one out. We pride ourselves on offering a guest experience that those with disabilities can take part in too – just talk to us about how everybody can get involved.
Dig This group booking experiences start at $189pp for groups of nine people or less. If you’ve got 10 or more people heading along, a discount will be applied.
Heck yeah it is! In fact, it’s so easy-peasy you don’t even need a driver’s licence. Everybody receives an on-site safety briefing before they jump into the cabs of our machines and our expert team are there to guide you throughout your fully-instructed experience.
This depends on a number of factors including the size of your group. However, our friendly team is more than happy to cater to your requirements: talk to us about how we can make your experience awesome.
Let’s be honest: you’re going to work up an appetite. Talk to us about our delicious, fresh catering packages available to feed your crew on-site.
Dig This is an outdoor experience – so please wear closed-toe shoes. Our cabs do have heating, though, so we advise wearing light layers that you can take off and on as needed. We’ll hook you up with some high-vis to complete your look.
This is a hard yes. We want to make sure your experience with us is as smooth as possible, and it’s important we have enough staff available on-site to get you through the paperwork, safety briefing, and experience out in the gravel pit.
Dig This is part of southern tourism hub Transport World: which is also home to Bill Richardson Transport World (the largest private automotive museum of its type in the world), Classic Motorcycle Mecca (the leading classic motorcycle collection in the Southern Hemisphere), on-site cafes, and TW Events & Incentives (our events team). We can make your group experience as amazing as you want! Talk to us about adding visits to our museums, cafes, or hosting a function to your Dig This experience.
