Father’s Day is fast approaching, which means it’s time to find the perfect gift for Dad. Coming up with the perfect Father’s Day present can be a challenge, especially if Dad is someone who just goes out and buys what he wants when he wants it. What do you get him?
This year think outside the gift box and get Dad a gift that involves creating memories and having fun together. Breakaway Experiences can help you choose the perfect experience. Working with companies from coast to coast across Canada, Breakaway Experiences has experiences ranging from stock car racing and flying lessons to winery, brewery tours and unique, tasty food tours. They are sure to have something that Dad can check off his bucket list.
“People are looking at their cluttered homes and realizing they have enough stuff. More and more people want to get out, have new adventures and work on their “bucket list”, says Dan Brennan, Chief Experience Office for Breakaway Experiences. “We are all about changing people’s gifting habits and bringing the happiness that memorable experiences create into people’s lives.”
Here’s how it works: Simply go to Breakaway Experiences’ website, select the area of Canada they live in or choose an experience type, and browse their list of experiences. You can choose from various locations across the country and there are experiences to fit almost every budget. If you’re still not sure what to get that difficult to shop for person, you can purchase a Breakaway
Experiences Gift Certificate which will allow the recipient to choose their dream experience.
Here’s a few of the many bucket list experiences to choose from:
Stock Car Racing
Tell Dad to strap in, hold on tight for the most exhilarating ride of his life. These NASCAR style driving experiences are the real deal. With 8 tracks across Canada to choose from, this is definitely an experience to check off the bucket list!

I love love love this gift idea, and Breakaway Experiences further makes it easier by guaranteeing the value of all the gift certificates. That means that means that if a certificate is not redeemed within a year of purchase and the cost of the experience increases, the certificate holder will only have to pay the difference between the original value and the new price. They also have a hassle-free exchange policy should dad not think your idea is as awesome as you did (WHAT?!) You can just exchange the value of the original certificate for something else.
