BOOK YOUR OWN PRIVATE ALPACA FARM TOUR (Private group):  1 hour 

Is a private tour for one-two carloads (up to 9) people from same group.  This generally consists of a walk through our lane-way to visit the alpacas, allowing you and your friends/family time to get comfortable around them.  During this time we educate you about these marvelous animals.  Then, if we are all comfortable with you getting closer, you can come into their paddock to hang out with them a bit. 

Each tour event is unique, as the alpacas and events going on around us, creates a dynamic organic  experience together.

Selfies are welcome of course.

The tour ends in our farm store gift-shop, allowing you some time to see if you find any special alpaca souvenirs or gifts you want to take home.  Many items are made from our alpacas, and made here, or by local fiber artist.  

Cost is $40 for up to 4-5 people in one vehicle.  We say 4-5 people as small children are welcome, and often one vehicle can seat up to 5 people safely. If 5-9 people arriving in your group, (2 vehicles) Cost is $80.  Allow about 1 hour for this visit.

Fiber Art Tour Extension 15 min

This extension can be added to your tour.  This is an additional 15 minutes of learning more about alpaca fiber, demonstrations on what we do with it to turn it into some of the lovely products we sell in our Farm Store.  Some hands on for you to feel the alpaca difference, with safe COVID-19 guidelines in place, of course. 

The  Extension Costs $20.  Allow up to 15 minutes for this tour.
