My friend and I embarked on a backhoe adventure at Dig This and it was outstanding! From the pre-experience call confirming details to the friendly reception, informative (and amusing) safety video, and thorough demonstration, the staff excelled. The hands-on operation of the backhoe, guided by our patient and expert instructor Mark, was the highlight—engaging, safe, and immersive. Mark’s keen supervision and conversational style made it unforgettable. This was a real hands on experience with a heavy equipment where you get to do real work under watchful eyes. I’m half-joking, but now I want my own backhoe! Highly recommended for any grown-up kid eager for heavy machinery fun.
