Whats up with Rising Sun
I’m a bit of celebrity around the farm and on social media. My fleece is super soft and luxurious, but even more than that, I’m apparently a one-of-a-kind, perfect specimen of an alpaca! I’m also as lovable as I am handsome, so pop into Shamarra Alpacas for a tour and a pat.
Whats up with Harlequin
A glamorous damsel through and through, I’m a big fan of being groomed well ahead of a photo op (your next selfie on a farm tour). My big eyes look even better when my fleece is on fleek. And I’ve been known to wear the odd denim jacket or hat, depending on the season.
But don’t be intimidated by my flair for fashion; I’m always up for a solid cuddle like my other friends.

“The reviews speak for themselves. This is a must visit place if you intent to visit the South Island. I can’t recommend this place enough! They have wonderful and cute alpacas. They look so happy! It’s refreshing to see such passionate care the owners take for their alpacas. The clothes you can buy are very well made and excellent gifts. Please come here! ”

“A fantastic experience at Shamarra Alpacas, especially for families with children. The alpacas are very calm, gentle, and clearly happy, which makes it a relaxed and enjoyable visit for kids of all ages. You can see how well cared for the animals are, and the whole place has a peaceful, welcoming feel. The hosts are friendly and knowledgeable, taking the time to explain things and make everyone feel comfortable. A great hands‑on experience and well worth the visit.”

“I loved this place! The tour was fantastic with an extremely knowledgeable guide and plenty of time to hang out with the alpacas and feed them. It was very educational, therapeutic, and fun. It even ends with snacks and refreshments courtesy of the staff! I purchased 2 lovely alpaca wool blankets too. These alpacas are some of the calmest animals you’ll find, relatively speaking. Look up the tour times so you don’t show up and have to wait too long.”

“Absolutely recommend visiting! Having never heard of Shamarra Alpacas, we were a little unsure of what to expect, we thoroughly enjoyed meeting and feeding the alpacas, the staff were all lovely and friendly, and clearly very passionate about their work. I cannot recommend Shamarra Alpacas highly enough! Thank you again for a wonderful experience.”
