The Story of Our
ALPACA WONDERLAND

A visit to Shamarra Alpacas gives you a healthy serving of cuddles, learning, exploration and the natural therapy of the great outdoors.

This is a private farm with exclusive access to the world’s most adorable, affectionate and clever creatures (we may be a little biased). Meeting our super stars up close and personal is an immersive experience like no other, in one of the South Island’s most idyllic spots. And seeing the interactions between human visitors and our alpaca family is precisely why we started doing farm tours here at Shamarra Alpacas.
