Beginner Falconry Class
This was an amazing experience! I would highly recommend this falconry class to anyone who is planning to visit Colorado. The instructor Deanna was extremely knowledgeable, and very passionate about what she does. I am very impressed and will be back one day!

Do the Falconry! Best experience ever!
We had a fantastic adventure during our back to back beginner + intermediate falconry experience in September 2026! We ended up being the only three people in our group. We were introduced to and handled many different birds, both inside and outside at the base of the mountains. Both our trainer and driver were fantastic! But most of all the birds are majestic, beautiful and such spectacular animals! It's an experience we will treasure and hope to repeat! This experience is such a gift to yourself! I highly recommend, over and over!

Thrilling experience
It was thrilling to be in the presence of these remarkable raptors…owls, hawks, falcons. Our Falconer teacher told us many fascinating things about the extraordinary powers of these birds.

A lifetime dream experience
A lifelong dream experience, met all expectations! Very knowledgable and friendly staff, I would highly recommend this experience (beginner and intermediate). Learned fascinating history of falconry and learned a lot about a wide array of birds of prey. The hands on experience with the birds was exceptional.

Colorado Springs Hands-On Falconry Class and Demonstration: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Colorado Springs.
How much does Colorado Springs Hands-On Falconry Class and Demonstration cost?
+
Prices start at $217 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Colorado Springs usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Colorado Springs Hands-On Falconry Class and Demonstration take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Colorado Springs is not rushed.
Is Colorado Springs Hands-On Falconry Class and Demonstration worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 79 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 348 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Colorado Springs, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Colorado Springs Hands-On Falconry Class and Demonstration?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Colorado Springs Hands-On Falconry Class and Demonstration suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Colorado Springs Hands-On Falconry Class and Demonstration?
+
Around 122 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Colorado Springs can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Colorado Springs and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Colorado Springs Hands-On Falconry Class and Demonstration start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Colorado Springs within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Colorado Springs?
+
Colorado Springs runs Pikes Peak cog railway and jeep tours, Garden of the Gods drives and climbs, Manitou Springs walks, zip lines and Royal Gorge day trips. On Outty we rank every Colorado Springs experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pikes Peak Jeep Tour, Classic Food Tour in Colorado Springs, Signature Fins Course Scenic Zipline Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Colorado Springs?
+
May to September, with cog railway seats selling out in July and August. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Colorado Springs?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Colorado Springs Hands-On Falconry Class and Demonstration?
+
Included: Bottled water; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Colorado Springs Hands-On Falconry Class and Demonstration?
+
Please meet us at our reservations booth at 6 Lake Ave, across from the Golden Bee, 15 minutes prior to the tour time. Parking is available in the lot adjacent to our location and is included. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Colorado Springs Hands-On Falconry Class and Demonstration offered in?
+
