   An amazing experience for my mums funeral sevice. I thought it would be impossible to fulfill my mums request to have Owls flying at her funeral but after seeing the Kent Owl Academy website I found Charlotte and her team provided just this experience for memorials and funerals. They were amazing at fitting in with our requests. We had a lovley southern white faced owl and a kestrel to greet us all on arriving at the service. We then had a lovely uplifting experience of a barn owl flying demonstration after which gave all our guests time to reflect. The barn owl posed for a photo by guests and the flowers and then a small handling experience for the kids (and adults!) Which brought some smiles back on faces. Thank you so much for giving us all some nice memories. My mum would have loved!

   Absolutely wonderful owl experience and definitely recommend. Clearly very knowledgable staff and I learnt a lot of owl knowledge from the experience as well as handling these beautiful owls. Staff incredibly friendly too. Unforgettable and one I’ll definitely be booking again. Thanks everyone so much!

   Me and my partner had such an amazing time here, handling a number of different owls and being introduced to all of their lovely birds! The staff were so lovely, and ensured we had plenty of pictures together. With the weather being so hot, it was great to know that the staff were super knowledgeable and as such were able to adapt our private experience to prioritise the safety and wellbeing of their animals, whilst also continuing to make our time there well worth while. Highly recommend!

   I purchased the photography workshop as a gift for my dad, whose a twitcher, and he loved it. Me and my mum were allowed to be spectators and also really enjoyed the day with him. The birds were amazing and the staff were all very knowledgeable. It was apparent that they really care for the birds and animals they look after. Josh was able to answer all of our questions (and we asked many!). For his young age of 23 he knows a great deal about all of the birds. As my dad struggles now with energy at his age, Edward and Josh were happy to go at his pace, which he really appreciated. Id highly recommend this experience for bird photographers. The only improvement I believe they could make is to have a private area for the photography workshops, but I think space makes this difficult.

   An unforgettable experience! I had an amazing time at Kent Owl Academy. The staff were incredibly accommodating and went out of their way to make sure everyone felt welcome and comfortable. Their knowledge and passion for the owls really shone through—it was fascinating to learn so much about these beautiful birds. You can tell they truly care about the animals and the experience of each visitor. I left feeling inspired and grateful for such a unique opportunity. Highly recommended!

   My sons and I visited the Kent Owl Academy today for the meet the meerkats experience. It was such a brilliant experience, hand feeding the meerkats, who are all very friendly. We were even lucky enough to meet the baby meerkats who were adorable. The animals were very well looked after and seemed very happy. The volunteers were all very friendly and informative. A very memorable and special experience, thank you!

   Visited Kent Owl Academy 17/2/23, fantastic experience seeing the owls, birds of prey and some of the creepy crawlies. The shows led by Charlotte we factual, funny and it was great getting up close to the various creatures. It was a pleasure to chat to all the volunteers, who were informative and obviously enjoy their work. Ed answered all our questions, was patient and very caring with the animals and the children. Definately recommend a visit. We will return and will book an owl encounter, which looks amazing and hopefully see the baby meerkats.

   Absolutely amazing! The experience was unforgettable, loved flying the owls and meeting all the animals. My niece was brought around by Molly and Sabian; they were both incredible with the birds and reptiles and their knowledge with all of the animals made it seem even more of a personal encounter. All of the volunteers are so lovely, definitely recommend for all ages.
