We thoroughly enjoyed the animals, the weaving demonstration, and seeing the Condor. A family was part of our group and the 2 boys were fully immersed in the animal experience. .
This experience was phenomenal! Our guide Olger was amazing and so knowledgeable!!
I visited the Alpaca and Llama Farm with friends, and we all had a great time. Interacting with the animals was a highlight, and we enjoyed learning about the different types of wool and how they are used. The weaving demo added a cultural touch that made the experience more meaningful. The tour was well organized, and the transfer made it very convenient for our group. It’s a great activity if you’re looking for something relaxed and authentic to do with friends.
This was a must-do!! Amazing experience. We were able to feed and lead about llamas, alpacas, textiles with an awesome tour guide who was super friendly and taught us quite a bit.
The tour not only touches you emotionally, but you also get a lot of information about the animals and the local culture.
My tour guide was awesome: knowledgeable about that is Inca and with perfect English. Learning about the different types of llamas and alpacas was a highlight. After the llamas was a weaving demonstration. They will then show you different types of furs in the hope you will purchase something.

Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and the animals were very adorable and sweet. Good length of time, and a nice break from hiking excursions.
Awesome trip! It was about 2.5 hours. Which was plenty of time. We feed Llamas and Alpacas. They were very sweet and my 12 year old had a blast. After traveling to Ollantaytambo and Machu Picchu, we didn’t see any. So, this was the perfect experience to get up close to them.
This was a fun and interesting tour. Really enjoyed feeding the llamas and alpacas-they were so cute and funny. Molly was an excellent guide and very knowledgeable. I especially liked learning about how the weavers use regular ingredients to dye the yarn.
