Face‑to‑face with curious alpacas
The core of the offering is direct observation of the animals: the session explains how alpacas behave and communicate while giving you time to photograph and appreciate their distinctive features up close.
Guided feeding and Q&A
After the talk about diet and behaviour, staff provide alpaca feed so visitors may hand‑feed the animals and ask questions — a structured moment for learning and gentle interaction.
See the animals’ wool and care products
The visit closes with a look at the stall and alpaca‑derived products such as fiber and soap, giving a practical coda to the encounter and a glimpse of local craftsmanship.
