Meet, cuddle & bond with our curiously cute Alpacas!
Sarah, what an amazing photo - Patrick is often so messy with hay all over him!! We are delighted you enjoyed your tour with us and found the presentation from our tour guides informative. The alpaca certainly do have their own personalities and quirks which just makes them more adorable. Thanks for the 5 star reveiw.
This experience is absolutely amazing! The tour guide was so knowledgeable. You can’t have this experience anywhere else and especially with that sort of view as well. You also get tea and coffee and biscuits at the end. Highly highly recommend as you get to pet and feed the alpacas.
Thanks Emma for sharing your experience of your recent tour of our farm. Our guides deliver their knowledge with such passion - we are delighted you enjoyed your time with us. We appreciate the 5 star review.
it was a great experience and the view was beautiful
Thank you for the 5 star review. We are pleased you enjoyed our stunning views over the Akaroa Harbour alongside the informative tour our guides provide.
Our family had a fantastic experience at Shamarra Alpaca Farm! Seeing and feeding the cute alpacas up close was a highlight, and Jean was a great guide—knowledgeable, engaging, and happy to answer questions. A great experience for the whole family and bonus of such a beautiful view from the farm!
Thank you for the amazing review. We are delighted you enjoyed the views, our adorable alpaca and the tour conducted by Jean. Being able to share our farm life with people is a daily highlight for us.
We loved the alpacca farm. Especially my daughter, what an incredible experience and what a stunning location in Akaroa
We are pleased you enjoyed your visit at our alpaca farm. We feel very privileged to be able to share our stunning location with people, alongside our cute alpaca. Thanks for the 5 star review Vivek.

Well worth it!
Great location and not only did we get to experience the alphas we learnt alot about them with the guides who are super friendly and knowledgeable. Not just a quick experience we got to know them and find out their quirks. Highly recommended. Bit of drive from Christchurch but beautiful!
