If you have an existing travel insurance policy in place with another provider such as your bank but it does not include cover for falconry, we can provide a bolt-on style of protection for your trip.

Why do you need Falconry Insurance?
Although the birds are trained to a high standard, the risk of injury or accident is still apparent, so ensuring that you have personal protection in place to safeguard yourself against any potential risk is highly advised.
Incidents such as minor scratches or bites from birds of prey have been reported as well as occasional illnesses when handling birds of prey via their food. Our Falconry Insurance provides cover against those medical costs as well as Liability protection against any property damage sustained from birds of prey.
