LR Experience - Honiton - What to do with wives.

Hello,
I am booked on an LRE 1/2 day tomorrow afternoon in the West Country venue near Honiton .
I am taking a friend and both our wives. Can someone advise on the following?
1) Will My friend and I be driving at different times or together. We are hoping to able to take some photos. Will there be viewing paths/areas where the non driver can do this?
2) What can our wives do while we are driving? Is there a seating/viewing area?
3) Does anyone have links to YouTube videos for this particular venue?

All comments appreciated this evening thanks (should have thought of this before)
Thanks MY13 SD HSE LUX Ipanema Sand

I have done the off-road experience previously with my husband. We both did the driving experience taking it in turns. Your wives can go in the car with you if they don,t want to try the driving experience. You can take photos during the experience. We did ours at Peckforton Castle in Cheshire. There probably will be a room they can sit in if they don't want to go out in the cars. It is a fantastic experience. Freelander 2 Metropolis 64 in Loire Blue with Ivory Windsor Leather. Previously Range Rover Evoque PureTech for 3weeks. Freelander2 XS and Freelander2 S.

Thanks

I have been to this venue on several occasions and the max no of people in the car is four including instructor,not really any viewing places as you head of into the woods and the start is a little way from the centre,you take it in turns for driving unless you have two half day tickets,the best thing to do with your wife's is to drop them of in honiton for some retail therapy should keep them happy for a number of hours.

Thanks to both of you for your replies.
I have now been on the LRE course at Honiton and it was fantastic. We went around in a Discovery Sport, not too different from my Freelander.
It was a very worthwhile afternoon. MY13 SD HSE LUX Ipanema Sand

My son went on the Honiton LRE a couple of years ago as a guest of a neighbour. On the day they drove an Evoque and reckoned that 90% of it could have been done in his old Renault Megane (which he used to drive around farms a lot so he knew what he was taking about).
Another point to be aware of, Honiton is not exactly a retail metropolis. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
5 x FL2 4 manual + 1 auto

I had no idea the Megane was so capable, but I will take your word for it since my wife confirms your comment ref Honiton. MY13 SD HSE LUX Ipanema Sand
