The magic of birds of prey - My partner and I chose to do this activity to try something different, immediately driven by curiosity to know a new world. Once we agreed on the time we reached the place very easily and arrived at the place Mr. Roberto and his son Pietro were waiting for us. Roberto has immediately immersed us in this magnificent world of birds of prey, telling us a thousand curiosities about the species he cares for with passion and objective competence. The path is not boring at all because Roberto has continuously stimulated our attention by involving us in every word. After a bit of sound theory, it’s time to get to know these beautiful animals up close and personal and you can’t help but be enchanted by such beauty. The highest moment is reached during the acquaintance of Abel, magnificent specimen of Golden Eagle. It is an experience that I would absolutely recommend because in addition to the fact that the location is surrounded by nature and offers a breathtaking view, everything you learn during Roberto’s passionate and qualified explanations will enrich you as a person. Last but not least, thanks to your contribution you will be able to make concrete the realization of Roberto's project to preserve and protect these endangered species.

Wonderful experience - This wonderful experience will always remain in our hearts and we would recommend it to anyone. It's been three hours without even realizing it. Being in front of these fascinating and magical creatures and being able to have some of them on your arm was exciting and unforgettable. The guide is so in love and passionate that he involves you and totally immerses you in the visit and the world of birds of prey. All this happens in a beautiful naturalistic setting. In short, we advise from the heart. Thank you for everything ❤️

An unforgettable experience - Our much abused Calabrian Earth holds us incredible, unexpected, wonderful surprises. It is necessary to discover their existence, thanks to enlightened people, who work in almost total invisibility; observe them with eyes full of wonder, as children can do; and, if possible, support them. In Civita there are the Falconers of the Seven Winds. And there is Roberto, a visionary, who dreams of leaving his grandchildren a better world than the one he "had" inherited. Through his knowledge, passion and skillful skills as an effective storyteller he accompanied us, together with his birds of prey, on an unforgettable experience. To experience firsthand. Highly recommended for educational agencies, children and teenagers... But not only that.

Amazing place - Great place and great initiative. It is not every day that you have the opportunity to interact with these beautiful predators. Roberto and Pietro introduced me to their world with complete professionalism and introduced me to their mentees, sharing a lot of information about the specimen. There was also a lot of commitment, despite the language barrier (we communicated with the help of a translator). We need more of such places and such people. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in nature - just remember that this place is not a zoo, but a habitat, and you should respect this place - those looking for ordinary entertainment, will not find what they are looking for here.

Beautiful and mysterious birds of prey - I was visiting the center with my two children aged 23 and 17. The visit lasted 3 hours but I assure you that time flew, Roberto made us immerse ourselves in the world of birds of prey in an interactive way, the boys were involved in first person and were fascinated by the birds of prey that they saw concluding the meeting with "His Majesty" the golden eagle. Recommendation to visit everyone, especially the boys. Those arriving by car must pay a little attention because the entrance is hardly visible

Experience to do! - Great experience, Roberto is a trained falconer and loves what he does. In addition to activity with birds of prey, attention must be paid to his teachings, which we should all treasure. The well-being of nature is also ours.
