Fantastic experience!!! - My family and I (5 adults) spent Easter day in the company of Roberto and his crew. In the morning he accompanied us, together with his competent son Pietro, to visit the wonderful village of Civita, telling us with patience and in great detail the history of the town, since its geological foundation, passing through the Arbereshe settlement and the unification of the rites Christians, immersing us in all the history and tradition of the place. We got to explore the devil's bridge and come into contact with the local flora. For lunch we changed location and had lunch with Roberto's wonderful family who didn't let us miss anything! The cuisine of Mrs. Loreta and the kind Roberta made us feel at home, for the typical Easter lunch like family. After lunch we immersed ourselves in the highlight of the experience: the encounter with the birds of prey. Roberto and Pietro presented us with several wonderful specimens, explaining how they live in nature and making us become familiar with them. The feeling was of being immersed in a documentary but live! But the most positive thing about the experience was the fact that Roberto not only gave us interesting information about the world of birds of prey, but he gave us all his passion and respect for these splendid animals. Highly recommended experience, also suitable (perhaps even more so) for children.

Great experience - A wonderful experience! Roberto involved us in a fascinating world of legends, history, botany and much more. It fascinated us adults and especially our 8 and 10 year old girls. After a beautiful excursion to Civita and the devil's bridge we had the pleasure of enjoying an exquisite lunch prepared by his very kind wife Loretta. We felt at home, a simple and truly relaxing experience... Which prepared us for the real surprise of the day... THE PRETTY!!!! Roberto introduced us to a fascinating and wonderful world. Co made us understand how extraordinary these animals are. All with great respect for these animals. It's not a theater show or a circus. It is truly a journey of knowledge... Entering silently and with great respect into a special world. We liked everything. An extraordinary experience for adults and children.. With a big project as the end. If you pass through Pollino you MUST spend a day with this family. Worth every minute spent together. Above all to teach children how important nature is and how much respect we owe it. We will definitely be back in May with a group of friends... We are already planning!!!!!

...let's not forget that we are the most varied, beautiful and rich country in the world!! - Civita and Pollino Park. Delightful to walk through the streets of the ancient village. The Church: splendid example of Byzantine art that captivates you with its vivid colours. Along the streets you meet friendly people who offer you useful advice... The Devil's Bridge: suggestive, with a fascinating history.... The Raganello gorges: " .... why go all the way to America when we have the canyons in Italy?!?"

Unique experience - We experienced a wonderful day led by Roberto in the charming village of Civita to discover traditions, stories and legends that come to life in the centuries-old stones and in the beautiful natural landscapes. We were welcomed into his family for an excellent lunch and then spent the afternoon in the company of wonderful owls, barn owls, eagles and falcons whose every secret we learned. Thank you for everything and we hope to renew this unique adventure.

A fantastic experience - An unforgettable day spent with a special guide: Roberto. His stories and explanations of the legends and history of the city of Civita fascinated us. The second part of the day with the birds of prey is even more interesting and unique. I attended with my 13, 11 and 8 year old children and I recommend it.

Unforgettable - Unique and unforgettable experience. The day passed quickly among the detailed stories of Roberto, a cultured, helpful and extremely respectful man of nature and its birds of prey. Delicious lunch, lovingly prepared by his wife for us and consumed in a naturalistic context with a splendid view of the Raganello and Civita gorges. Recommended for adults and children.
