5Well worth the money!!
Our guide was so knowledgeable, not only with the raptors in this region of the US, but also raptors around the world. She gave the visitors a good background and history of each raptor and how they differ from the other types of raptors. The location is a beautiful drive about 30 minutes from Reno in the mountains. 100% worth the money.
5100% worth the time and money!!
If you are Reno I would 100% recommend! Especially if you love nature and if you value the true essence of wildlife!! It was so informative and the staff is amazing and so knowledgeable!
5Best Animal Encounter Ever!
Absolutely hands down the best up close and personal animal encounter I’ve ever experienced. Kathleen is knowledgeable, experienced and adept with her birds. The time flew by (sorry!) during her presentation. 10 out of 10.
5Getting Out of My Comfort Zone
It was a great experience! Kathleen was very knowledgeable, a great teacher. I was a little nervous going in, I was a little fearful of the birds, but thanks to her, I no longer have any fear. It was great from start to finish.
5Awesome Learning Experience
Great learning experience. I didn’t know I knew so little about raptors. Also, a nice outdoor setting with plenty of comfort amenities.
5Incredible experience!!

About Reno

In the high desert of western Nevada, at the foot of the Sierra Nevada, Reno grew up on the Truckee River, which flows down from Lake Tahoe. The city is known for its casinos and for the arched sign over Virginia Street that calls it the Biggest Little City in the World.
