Choose between half-day or full-day vouchers that can be redeemed at a variety of locations across the country. Our small group experiences provide ample time to get to know the different birds and their handlers. With falconers from all over the country, you're sure to find a centre that catches your eye! Your experience will begin with an introduction to the birds and the fascinating history of falconry.

It was an amazing day. I held birds of prey from kestrels to a bald eagle. The staff at Hagley were extremely knowledgeable and helpful.

Fantastic. We had a marvellous day. Mike gave us brilliant explanations of all of his birds, their nature, behaviour and abilities. We handled eagles, buzzards, owls, hawks. It was all very friendly, laid back but very informative. If you like birds of prey - visit - you will not be disappointed, nor will you forget the experience. Well done Mike

Very friendly, knowledgeable staff who very obviously love their job and are very passionate about the birds. A great experience had by my Wife and me, will definitely be back with our daughter in tow to look around!

Margaret Parr

This was a birthday gift, and we had a brilliant half day experience at the Hill Top Birds of Prey Centre, Llangarron, Herefordshire. In an idyllic setting, it was hands on, which we loved, fun and very informative. Mike, the owner, has a great rapport with both his clients and his feathered friends! And getting close to these handsome creatures and seeing just how intelligent they are was really special.

Olivia

Great day out would do it again but for the full day this time!

John Hutchinson

I had my falconry day at the Coniston Hotel Falconry Centre . It was really great - so much fun, so much knowledge - I can't recommend it highly enough. The day also includes breakfast and lunch at the hotel where the staff are just fantastic - efficient and really friendly. I've already recommended both the falcony centre and hotel members of my family!

Dean walker

Amazeballs!! Really enjoyed the falconry day, even to the point might get a hawk of my own after the training

Melanie Lax

Our day with Martin at his Dorset venue was amazing. From the moment we arrived Martin made us feel really welcome and relaxed. We had such a lovely day, the birds were magnificent and it was great to be able to fly them in their natural surroundings and see them at their best. I would recommend this Dorset falconry activity to anyone, you won't be disappointed.

Paul Cooper

A truly fantastic experience - one I would highly recommend. We 'fly' about 8 different birds ranging from the 5oz kestral to the 5lb Bateleur eagle. Amazing creatures - and I feel very lucky to have been so close to them.
