Fun and interesting experience
The alpacas were absolutely adorable, especially the fawn-colored one — it was so gentle. While the others would eagerly compete for food, this one stayed calm and didn’t push in. Overall, it was a fun and interesting experience. However, the ground was covered in sheep and alpaca droppings, making it easy to accidentally step in some. Wearing rain boots turned out to be a very wise decision.
From Lake Tekapo Petting Zoo
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We're so glad you enjoyed spending time with our alpacas! 😊 And yes, great call on the rain boots—we appreciate your feedback and will keep working to improve the experience. Hope to see you again soon! 🦙💛

such a unique petting zoo experience
Had such a fun time getting up close with the animals and feeding them. The alpacas (especially Chewbacca) and pigs (Gin and Tonic) are so gentle and we found it cool that the pigs could sit on command. The sheeps on the other hand were chasing us for food which was hilarious and extremely adorable. Got a chance to see a calf too and she's the sweetest.

Average experience
My fiancé and I didn’t enjoy this as much as we hoped, we thought it was more of a self guided tour and we were mainly there to see the alpacas. The tour leader was very “up her self” with her getting photos down of herself. It was just a very bizarre experience. However for the price it was okay, and the drive there was beautiful.

Lovely experience
The tour guide was kind and lovely. The animals are so cute and we, especially my son, really enjoyed the experience. One of his favorite experiences. So cool to pet and feed them.
