EXCELLENT Based on 331 reviews Joan F2025-05-20Verified A wonderful experience An amazing morning at Surrey Hills Falconry, where Laurie introduced us to five of his beautiful birds, especially Dennis the owl and especially Vinny the vulture! Laurie was so knowledgable and friendly, he really loves and cares for his birds. Holding the birds and seeing them in such detail, was just incredible. Then later seeing them fly to my hand - wonderful! It was a brilliant experience and I hope to be able to do it again. Thanks Laurie, it was superb. charles v2025-05-18Verified Fantastic falconry experience We had a wonderful time this morning with Laurie learning about and holding some amazing birds, especially Dennis the Spectacled Owl! Couldn’t recommend the falconry experience highly enough. Sharon B2025-05-15Verified Fantastic experience What an marvellous experience and privilege to be able to get so close to these amazing birds. Laurie has such a passion and his knowledge is fantastic. He clearly cares so much for these birds and it’s obvious they have total trust in him. We booked the VIP experience which last about 90 minutes and you get to interact with the birds and also have some of them fly to you. Star of the show in our opinion was Dennis, what a character. The stories about him are hilarious. Would thoroughly recommend this experience to anyone. Richard E2025-05-14Verified One of the best ways to experience birds of prey up close and personal Having loved birds of prey for many years my wife bought me a voucher for Surrey Hills Falconry. What fantastic time we had. The experience lasted about 90 minutes where were introduced to the birds and were taught so many interesting facts about them as well as their personalities. We held a number of birds on the glove and we flew 3 birds during the visit. My wife and I were the only people there so it felt like a really special experience which is the way Laurie (the falconer) likes to keep it. Laurie was fascinating and you could see just how much he cares for his birds. If you are a bird lover or are just looking for a really fun experience I would highly recommend going, the surroundings are beautiful and you will not be disappointed. I will be going again very soon. Paula P2025-05-13Verified Highly recommend I bought this falconry experience as a present for my husband. We had an amazing time. From the start it was very clear that Laurie is an experienced and knowledgeable falconer and passionate about his bird family. He was happy to answer our questions and share his stories of life with his birds . It was such a treat to have the birds perch on a glove & see them so close and fly them with supervision from Laurie. My husband has wanted to do a falconry experience for a long time and I have to say we both felt our time with Laurie and his birds exceeded our expectations. We would definitely recommend this experience. The venue is easy to find and parking is plentiful. Lewis G2025-05-12Verified Falconry experiance surrey Surrey hills falconry was a great first time experience for me and the family. Laurie is well experienced and very knowledgeable in falconry it was great to learn about his flock of well trained birds and to have a great experience handling each bird and to learn about each breed. The facility is very well spaced out and situated away from road noise so no chance of the birds being stressed from traffic or passers-by. It's a great experience for the while family. Jill H2025-05-06Verified Wonderful experience I booked a family experience for two of our grandchildren (aged 10 and 12) and my husband and I. It was excellent. Laurie is friendly, passionate about his birds and very informative. He is and very happy to answer a great number of questions about his birds and falconry. each of us experienced the five different birds of prey sitting on the falconry gloves Laurie provided, and then he flew them landing on our gloved hands. Very nice open location, plenty of parking and easy to find. Thoroughly recommended both for adults and for families. We will rebook for our other grandchildren.
