  • Half Day Falconry Experience Cheshire

    Bird Of Prey Experience Days: Experience the unrivaled majesty and power of
    beautiful birds of prey, with this half day falconry course in
    Cheshire. There is something supremely mysterious about these
    highly-evolved creatures, but after 3 hours in close contact with
    them while you learn falconry skills, you will definitely have a
    deeper insight into their characteristics. While you get to grips
    with handling birds of prey (or rather, while they get to grips
    with you!), you will learn about their hunting habits, speed and
    power, and you’ll see how man and bird have made such an unlikely
    but successful duo for so many thousands of years.

    Based in Cheshire, just a short drive from both Liverpool and
    Manchester, this experience is perfect for anyone that loves birds
    and nature, spends hours in front of Attenborough, or wants to try
    something completely different and truly memorable!
    Once you have arrived at the location you will
    be welcomed by your guide, who will begin your experience with a
    fascinating talk about the ancient art of falconry. You will go for
    a guided tour of the aviary where your expert handler will
    introduce a spectacular selection of birds of prey that you will be
    getting close to during the course of the day. The guides really
    know their stuff, so feel free to ask any questions you can think
    of! At this point you will get to learn falconry skills, and handle
    a variety of birds of prey, ranging from beautiful tiny owls
    through to the more sinister looking falcons and buzzards!

    Once you have learned how to handle the birds ‘on the glove’, you
    will get to experience some of them fly in to land on your arm –
    even one of the centre’s wonderful vultures! On top of all this,
    you will take in one of the daily displays run by the centre, and
    finish a superb experience with a ‘hawk walk’ – half an hour
    walking through surrounding fields with a team of Harris Hawks!

  • Wakeboarding Devon Experience

    Wakeboarding Experience Days: A wakeboarding experience in Devon is a perfect
    gift, whether for beginner-boarders or seasoned addicts! The beauty
    of wakeboarding is that you can go at your own pace, and push your
    limits at the same time.

    And it’s very, very cool.

    Let a powerful speedboat pull you around the beautiful and
    perfectly glassy waters of the Exmouth Estuary, while expert
    instructors watch your form and assess your abilities, giving you
    tailor-made tuition to improve your skills quickly and naturally.
    Go at a speed you are comfortable with, but with a learning curve
    as steep as this, progression is quick and it’s often a case of
    ‘scream if you wanna go faster’! .
    Our Wakeboarding Devon Experience consists of a
    1hr session, however you should arrive 15-30 minutes before your
    booked time, and make time for drying off and winding down
    afterwards!

    Once you have been fitted for your buoyancy aid and wetsuit, one of
    your two expert instructors will brief you on wakeboarding
    techniques and relevant safety issues. During the session,
    participants get two 15-minute ‘sets’ (two turns being pulled).

    This may not seem like a very long time, but there are few arms
    that can still hang on to the back of a speedboat for more than 15
    minutes! The learning curve is also very steep, in 15 minutes you
    can go from complete novice to being comfortable crossing the wake.
    Instruction and advise is given throughout your pull and hour long
    session, and even afterwards – the instructors love to see people
    progressing and becoming as passionate about wakeboarding as they
    are!

    Allow yourself time to dry off – and time for your hands to stop
    shaking – after your session.Your arms may be a little sore the day
    after wakeboarding but don’t worry, it’s really worth it.
