This family-run operation has clearly won hearts with its well-cared-for alpacas and knowledgeable hosts. Jim and Tish lead the tours with genuine passion, patiently introducing visitors to each alpaca's unique personality and backstory while providing bags of carrots for feeding. Guests consistently praise how informative the experience is, noting the owners' flexibility with booking changes and their ability to adjust tours for families with young children. The alpacas themselves get rave reviews for being soft, charming, and interactive. The gift shop deserves special mention, stocked with high-quality alpaca products including blankets, clothes, and scarves that visitors love taking home. Tours typically last about an hour and make an excellent alternative to beach activities in the Cape May and Wildwood area. Multiple families mention returning for repeat visits, which speaks volumes about the experience. Whether you're six years old or bringing the whole extended family, this seems to be one of those rare attractions that delivers on its stellar reputation.
My family has gone here a few times and the alpaca are truly charming! Those big beautiful eyes and so much personality. It’s fun to learn some of their stories and feed them carrots. They do wonderful work here. You can tell it’s a labor of love. Truly wonderful family outing! Don’t miss the gift store. My husband and I went a year ago just to get some special alpaca goods. They were so kind and accommodating. We purchased several items, but my favorite would be the blankets. So soft and warm and beautifully crafted! Highly recommend!
