A Shamarra Alpaca Farm Tour is an unparalleled opportunity to get up close and personal with alpacas, learn about this loving animal, and create some memories with friends and family in a stunning location.
You’ll find your new furry friends here at Shamarra Alpacas, home to a herd of 170 alpacas in a beautiful harbour on the slopes of an extinct volcano and overlooked by craggy volcanic hills.
Shamarra Alpacas is only an hour’s drive from Christchurch, and a scenic 20 minute trip from the historic seaside village of Akaroa.
Our panoramic views of Akaroa harbour and the rolling hills and peaks of the surrounding valleys are breath-taking, and will make every one of your selfies with an alpaca post-worthy. This is no ordinary trip to an alpaca farm.
Itinerary
- Your tour starts with a brief introduction & a quick safety briefing.
- Next feel the incredible cashmere-like softness of superfine alpaca whilst simultaneously learning about its amazing qualities.
- Then you will get to interact with the Alpacas, see our sustainable farming practices first hand, and learn about how we keep our adorable alpacas safe, healthy and happy.
- Feed the mothers with their young by their side.
- At the end of your tour, enjoy a beverage and one of our famous home-baked cookies.
- You’ll then be able to browse the Shamarra Alpaca Shop. It’s a boutique collection of luxurious, natural and 100% dye-free alpaca knitwear made in New Zealand!

超級可愛的羊駝們！絕對不虛此行
🦙 意外的Private Tour私人包場行程～和超級可愛的羊駝們相見歡啦～～～超開心！！！ 🦙 這家Shamarra Alpacas羊駝牧場位在基督城右下方班克斯半島上的Akaroa阿卡羅阿小鎮上，開車過來會經過漂亮的海港，最吸引我的就是他這片放牧地超大！可以俯瞰海港和半島對面，整個心曠神怡❤️ 🦙 很多介紹說自行開車上去需要經過很陡又窄的小路，不過我們自己開上來覺得很ok 🦙 雖然一路上天氣不佳，還下了小雨，不過我們也很幸運，一抵達就告知我們，因為天氣不好下午這場只有我們兩人～～太誇張了吧直接變private tour 私人包場行程～～ 🦙 因為包場所以和I聊了很多，對羊駝認識也大大增加！一開始先摸羊駝毛，真的好軟好細緻而且沒有味道。今年牧場剛誕生了一隻全黑的羊駝，真的超黑！好可愛，跟黑炭一樣。 🦙 在最後我們被羊駝們包圍啦，而且有點放晴又出了彩虹，會不會太幸運！真的好好玩呀（手比愛心） 🦙 結束參觀我們吃了牧場老闆娘親手做的手工餅乾，還有茶和鮮奶等等～ 一邊和我們聊天，真的收穫滿滿！

好的體驗，完美
一開始講解羊駝的特點，後面可以和公母羊駝近距離互動，同時有問題也都可以問他~是個台灣的員工，所以中文也可以通

Fluffy alpacas and the best cookies ever
It started raining slightly in the first half an hour and the staff provided us with raincoats. Loved that they explained the personalities of the alpacas we were interacting with. The cookies towards the end of the tour was to die for. Remember to ask for the recipe!

牧場實在是太棒了，值得一去
羊駝很多很親人，可以抱著羊駝、撫摸羊駝；而且導覽人員介紹的很仔細，非常推薦前往參加
