Full description
If you were a bird, you would be aneagle.
Meet your guide animal by taking part in this exclusive experience in Gessate, a few kilometres outside Milan. In the company of a falconer, you will visit the aviaries housing around 30 species of birds of prey and learn more about these fascinating birds. You will then experience the unique thrill of calling an eagle to your fist!
A1-hour activity, discovering the magical world of birds of prey.
What we will do
The appointment is 5 minutes before the selected time at the meeting point in Gessate (MI). You will be welcomed by your falconer guide who will accompany you on this adventure!
The experience will begin with a visit to the aviaries, which are home to around 30 species of birds of prey from all over the world. The guide will introduce you to the world of falconry, passing on all his passion and knowledge about these animals: what species they belong to, what their unique characteristics are and other curiosities. This first part devoted to the theory of falconry will last about 30 minutes.
It will then be time to put on your falconer's glove and the small bag containing food, for your encounter with the eagle. Thanks to the support of two operators, one of whom will remain at your side at all times, you will experience the unique thrill of calling an eagle to your fist: this majestic bird will land right on your arm, like a real falconer! You will have no less than four calls at your disposal.
If you bring companions with you, they will be able to take part in the visit of the aviaries and photograph you during the eagle activity, which will last approximately 30 minutes.
The exclusive experience will last a total of 1 hour.
