Pros and cons
Adrenaline USA
Pros
- Gift certificates are flexible, so the balance can be exchanged towards another Adrenaline product or adventure.
- The catalogue runs to 1,452 to 1,700 experiences, from driving days to attraction tickets.
- Adrenaline USA sells experience days, driving, adventure and more, so the same voucher can cover several kinds of day out.
Cons
- Refunds on gift certificates sit inside a 14 day change of mind window from the purchase date.
- The starting price of $14.75 is quoted for scenic cruises, so it is a poor guide to a driving or adventure day.
- The experiences are sold in the United States, so a gift for someone living in another country is a poor bet.
Buyagift
Pros
- The catalogue covers experience days, spa and driving, so one brand can cover a calm day out and an active one.
- 5,000 experiences let the recipient pick something specific rather than settling for a generic voucher.
- Vouchers are exchangeable, so a mismatched choice can be swapped for another experience instead of being lost.
Cons
- Support runs on help centre only, so a question about a particular booking is worked through in writing rather than spoken to anyone.
- The entry point of £18.40 is higher than the €5.90 at Jochen Schweizer and the €5.90 at mydays.
- A voucher runs 12 months, which matches the 12 across the site and sits under the 19.5 some brands allow.
Who each suits
Adrenaline USA
Who it suits
- Anyone buying a birthday or anniversary gift for someone who would rather pick the day than be given a fixed plan.
- People who enjoy driving days and adventure activities, with 1,452 to 1,700 experiences to browse.
- Gift givers who buy well ahead of the occasion, since the voucher stays valid for 60 months after purchase.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone who needs to change their mind long after buying, since a certificate refund has to be requested within a 14 day window.
- Buyers on a tight budget who read $14.75 as a typical price, since that figure is quoted for scenic cruises.
- Anyone set on a booked day rather than a gift they can exchange can look at Turbopass instead.
Buyagift
Who it suits
- Buyers who want one gift brand to cover several kinds of day out, from spa to driving to attractions.
- Presenters who are unsure of a recipient's plans, given exchangeable vouchers and a return window of 30 days.
- Shoppers buying for the UK or Ireland, where GB and IE is where the catalogue is built to run.
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers who want the lowest outlay for a day out: mydays starts at €5.90 and Jochen Schweizer at €5.90.
- People who prefer a slimmer, more mainstream range, such as DealToday with experience days, spa and food and drink, and would find a wider catalogue harder to browse.

Questions about each
Adrenaline USA
How much does an Adrenaline USA experience cost?+
Scenic cruises are quoted from $14.75. That figure belongs to scenic cruises, which makes it a useful entry point for a gift but a poor guide to a driving day or an adventure activity. Each experience carries its own price, and a gift certificate lets the recipient decide which one to book.
How long does an Adrenaline USA gift certificate last?+
A voucher stays valid for 60 months from the purchase date, which suits a present bought well ahead of the occasion. If the recipient never gets around to it, the balance can be exchanged towards another Adrenaline product or adventure rather than simply lapsing.
Buyagift
How much does an experience cost?+
The cheapest experience is listed from £18.40. That is the entry-level voucher rather than a typical spend, so a basket of several experiences will sit above it. On the same comparison Jochen Schweizer starts at €5.90 and mydays at €5.90, which is the gap this entry price leaves.
How long does a voucher stay valid?+
Vouchers run for 12 months, the same window the median brand in the comparison gives, and shorter than the 19.5 some longer-running brands allow. Planning a gift around a fixed date works well, while a gift aimed at next season is where the window starts to matter.
