Your day starts at 10.30 when you will be met by our team of falconers and introduced to the equipment and how to handle the eagles safely, you are then introduced to our eagle lawn to meet the stars of your experience

Throughout the experience, emphasis is “hands on” and you will be given the chance to handle and fly different eagles. We start with a smaller bird to ensure you are comfortable with the experience, we then start flying a selection of eagles from around the world, working are way up to the magnificent Bald Eagle. (some birds may be upgraded due to weather conditions and the centres commitments)
