7 gifts for the mother who already has everything

Mother's Day gifts

It is almost Mother's Day again. Time to look for a nice present. And then you realise that she already has everything. In terms of things, that is. And of course your unconditional love. So how nice is it to give her an experience? Stuff is temporary, experiences are permanent! We have listed some of the nicest things to do.
1. Taking to the skies with the family!

Mother behind the controls and the kids in the back. During the Cessna flying lesson, you get to fly yourself almost all the time, accompanied by an experienced instructor. You take off from Lelystad, Breda, Teuge, Den Helder or Aachen. You might even be able to fly over your own house!

2. Jumping out of a plane. With parachute!

Is your mum a real daredevil? Then she really must have done this once. Jump from a height of 3 or 4km at the locations Texel, Ameland, Breda, Spa or Zeeland. The first 2 km is a free fall. It goes at a sloppy 200 km/h. Then she gently whirls further down on a parachute. She jumps together with an experienced 'tandem master'. An absolute bucket-list item!

3. Piloting a plane yourself. Ready for take off?

The Basic flying lesson: this is one of our most popular flying lessons, and for a reason! Your mum will fly with an instructor in a two-seater sports plane. This is a super fun plane to fly in with great value for money. This flying lesson is available in as many as 13 locations.

4. Does she prefer to stay on the ground?

During this simulator flying lesson, your mum will keep both feet on the ground. But you wouldn't say that! This Boeing 737 simulator is so realistic that it looks like you are really flying. Experience what it takes to fly the most popular airliner.

5. Helicopter flying lesson

This is something different, a flying lesson in a helicopter! With this helicopter, two passengers can fly alongside the instructor and your mother. An ideal gift, give your mother a flying lesson and invite yourself to fly with her. That way you can immediately see how she does.

6. Flying lessons Lelystad - Texel

Want to fly your mother extra long? Let your mother fly from Lelystad to Texel and back again. And when she doesn't feel like steering for a while, the instructor can always take over completely from his or her seat. Would you like to fly along yourself? You can! You choose whether you fly in a two- or four-seater plane.
