Birds of Prey Royal Tunbridge Wells Raptor Experience
£49.99pp
This package can cater for group sizes from 1 to 4 people.
Birds of prey have a sense of power around them, they are perfectly adapted predators and it is a real privilege to be able to handle such creatures. On this 90-minute experience, you will have the opportunity to handle and fly species such as a Harris' Hawk, Verreaux's Eagle Owl, Barn Owl and the largest bird of prey on our team, a Steppe Eagle. This experience is for those who wish to fly other species of birds rather than just owls.
Please select the number of participants, when booking. Per person price changes depending on group size
REMEMBER : Adventure Cards are not just awesome for Birds of Prey, they can be redeemed against any of our adventures at nearly 2000 locations across the UK & Ireland! Literally giving the lucky recipient access to over ten thousand action packed experience days nationwide.

An amazing experience! A thoroughly enjoyable morning with a friendly, knowledgable and enthusiastic trainer. Beautiful birds! Thanks Liam…. we’ll be back!
Paul
Don’t know what to expect. The grounds were a little bit tumbleweed but to be fair I understand they are going through renovations. But 10 out of 10 for the Owls and the Instructors. They made it an absolutely magical amazing experience , one which we will never forget. Thank you Liam and Sam and your beautiful awe inspiring owls for a wonderful day

100% recommend this experience! Liam was a passionate and knowledgeable leader. His interactions with the group were perfectly matched to our knowledge and he answered all our questions and more! He clearly loves the birds and his job! We got to fly a buzzard, Harris Hawk, Steppe Eagle and Black Kites. A wonderful day and memories that will stay with me for a very long time! We had a great mix of flying the birds and observing their behaviour so a great opportunity for photos. The habitat around meant we also saw wild kestrel, red kite & buzzard overhead! We will definitely book again next year. Liam and Dan - keep up the good work!

I organised this experience as a gift for my husband's birthday. I'm not quite sure what I was expecting but we couldn't have been more delighted with the whole experience. Our 'birdman' for the day was Dan who added so much information and depth of understanding to our day with his amazing birds. He has a huge amount of knowledge and connection with these magnificent birds and we left our time him with a deeper appreciation and respect for these wild creatures and our need to protect them. Couldn't have been happier with the whole experience and would hightly recommend it. It will lift your spirits on so many levels. Thanks Dan.
