2 for 1 Woodland Walk and Owl Flying Experience at Lee Valley Park 11856836

Good experience

From start to finish this gift was great. Communication with the company was first class all through email. They tried to accommodate our wanted date for the experience even though it was short notice. The experience itself was great! Not only are the staff very friendly and knowledgeable, you get to hold the owl several times throughout the walk. They clearly care very much for the animals that they have at the farm.

Our guide was very accomodating and welcoming of us, taught us lots about the owls and was extremely friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience. Was more than we hoped for.

Unique, amazing experience with warm and friendly staff!

A mutual friend bought us the Coda Falconry Woodland Owl Walk for Christmas. I'll be honest with you, we've given and received a number of "experiences" from sites like BuyAGift over the years - most have been disappointing - this wasn’t! To say our expectations were surpassed is a total understatement. The staff from Coda Falconry greeted our small group like old friends, and after collecting a leather glove and hearing the usual dos and don'ts, we were off, into the woods, with Dizzy the Barn Owl in her travel box. I've always been slightly uncomfortable with the idea of birds of prey being kept in captivity, but within minutes it became clear that not only are the staff at Coda Falconry potty about birds (in a good way), but the birds are equally potty about them. Once out of the box Dizzy would have been free to fly away should she have so wished - but she didn't. Apart from occasionally taking a rest in the upper branches of a tree, she happily flew back and forth as the people in the group took turns in "flying" her. I was charmed. As one of the Handlers said as we arrived, "prepare to discover that everything you know about owls... is wrong." An excellent day out for all ages.

We have been on other hawk/owl flying experiences but the woodland location made this different and better.

Brilliant day, well organised and lovely being so close to owls and having them fly to and land on you.

Considering the coronavirus restrictions imposed on all of us and the fact that the adjoining farm was closed, the Woodland Walk and Owl Flying Experience was all that we hoped it would be. All safety precautions were in place and observed by all. Luke gave us well-informed instructions and background information which allowed us to enjoy Dizzy's performance to the full.

The most amazing owl experience. Walking through the woods with a beautiful barn owl and have it land on your glove was fantastic. The staff were very informative, friendly and fun.

Great time walking with owl and seeing him fly Emily and Dave were really knowledgeable, would very highly recommend to everyone to do this experience
