Men can be tricky to buy gifts for; do you go for a pair of socks again or something a bit more exciting? We're here to help, with a gift guide packed full of unique ideas for every type of man, and every budget. Read on for some Christmas inspiration!

For High Fliers

Man has long since dreamed of becoming airborne, and with our range of flying experiences, you can treat an aviation enthusiast to a true aerial adventure! You could go Paragliding in Cape Town, Microlight Flying in Durban, or learn to fly a 1942 US Army Cub in Johannesburg, plus many more. Whether you're after an adrenaline-pumping once-in-a-lifetime thrill or a relaxing and scenic flying experience, we've got you covered.

For The Sensitive Soul

Men are often unfairly expected to be tough and thick-skinned throughout their lives, but here at Experience Days we think everyone deserves a little TLC and the opportunity to be pampered. For Joburg dwellers, there's a wonderful treatment package designed specifically for men, complete with manicure, sports pedicure, facial, haircut and shave - you won't recognise him after! If you call Cape Town home, then head to the V&A Waterfront for the 'Time For Him' spa day, a luxurious experience with three treatments and use of the quality facilities.

For Foodies

We all know the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, so treat him to a gourmet experience day and have yourself a very happy chappy! Of course this wouldn't be South Africa without a whole range of wine tasting excursions, covering everything from hop-on hop-off tram journeys to Segway Tours with wine tastings. There's also a decadent Cake Decorating Workshop in Cape Town, and an informative Food Tour in Johannesburg to choose from - plenty of ways to enjoy your hometown's best offerings!

For Petrol Heads

Last but not least, the ultimate gifts for high-octane power-hungry adventure-hunting thrill seekers! Our top seller this year was the 2 Supercar Driving Experience, available at Zwartkops Raceway in Johannesburg and Killarney Racing Circuit in Cape Town, but there are plenty more driving days to pick from. Hit the bright white sands of Atlantis for a sand dune quad biking trek, or explore the Moses Mabhida Stadium on an exciting Segway Tour, plus loads more.

LATEST RATINGS

Lovely Start to the Weekend.

I recently got given this amazing Spa day as a gift. I made my booking for the Friday as I thought it would be a lovely early start to my weekend, and LOVELY it was. I got there around 10am where I was greeted with some tea and muffins, Changed into my Comfy Robe and slippers and went to my first treatment. I had a 2 hours Swedish Full Body Massage and Facial. OH my Goodness, It was amazing, especially the heated gloves and slippers. The products left my skin feeling great and refreshed. After that I went and sat down with a lovely lady that gave me a hot stone Mani and Pedi, Super professional. I then went for a steam in the steam room Followed by a dip in the pool. This is a whole day experience, so make sure you don't have anywhere to go. Next time I go I will book it for around 11 so there is enough time to spend in the pool and steam room before any of the treatments as All my nails got smudged. Highly Recommend gift for either male or females. read more >

First time in a helicopter

A friend treated me to this experience as I'd never flown in a helicopter before, and what an experience it was! Definitely a great one for a first-timer, as you get to experience all the best bits without throwing yourself in the deep end. Take-off was amazing, the views were great (despite the cloud), and the pilot gave excellent commentary. A great budget helicopter flight in Cape Town! read more >

Mouille Point

A personal experience

Had a fantastic time at Life Day Spa, the attention to detail is flawless and the day went so smoothly! Favourite part was the facial as it was personal to my skin type, not just a generic treatment. Staff were amazing and the facilities are very relaxing. Highly recommend! read more >

Unique view of the Mother City

This exhilarating experience is an absolute MUST for visitors to Cape Town for a never-before-seen angle of the city. Flying out towards the Twelve Apostles we took in some of the major sights of Cape Town and learned a bit about the landmarks. Even though we went up on a cloudy day it was totally worth it and lots of fun. read more >

Great food and great people!

My mum bought me this dining experience as a gift for my travels, and it was so much fun! Even though I'm not vegan I didn't feel unwelcome at all, quite the opposite, Patrick and Karen are fantastic hosts and the food was to die for - plus I met loads of amazing people who I hope to stay in touch with! read more >
