Llama/Alpaca Hike and Farm Tour

Overview
Your visit will begin with a brief tour of our farm and introductions to some of our smaller friends (i.e pygora goats, sheep and overly friendly barn cats ) with a short story of our 1850 homestead located in The Historic Hudson Valley on 25 bucolic acres . Followed by Llama/Alpaca 101 and why these soft and fluffy critters are the new Unicorn of animals. We will cover basic safety rules and answer any questions before we begin our trek.

We will guide your Llama/Alpaca trek through gentle pastures, paddocks, past a stocked Bass pond and encourage Llama/Alpaca Selfies along the way.

You will experience a walking and working Fiber Farm tour amongst our 25 bucolic pastured acres. Our hope is that this tour will allow you to reconnect with a quieter side of life, one that allows for relaxation, warm and welcoming animal encounters and a country stroll through our pastures allowing a reconnection to nature.

Today my boyfriend and I attended a alpaca and llama hike here at the farm. I am grateful for the experience we had during this crazy pandemic although was slightly disappointed today. I do want to address both the pros and cons to my experience. To start with the cons : we were not greeted upon arrival which I felt a little weird that we were not checked in or said hello too. We walked up to the farm stand and sorta awkwardly waited. The girl who never told us her name or could not figure out who was going to do the tour. Finally she said we had to wait a bit for the others to show. (So we figured out who was doing the tour at this point) Anyways, it felt very rushed. Online it says it is an hour and a half. We were only there for 45 mins including the entire experience. The intern rushed through telling us the names of the animals and information without being clear. (I think for some people who do not know a lot about the animals I was more interested in learning about them but that did not happen). We asked a few questions and the intern did not know a few that I felt were basic questions. I do not want to bash the girl who hosted the tour but she did not really seem enthusiastic or passionate about talking about them. (Perhaps she isn't getting paid ? And didn't feel to put the effort into talking about it.? Not quite sure. My last con is that way expensive for 2 people. $86 for 45 mins alittle disappointing. - I think it should have been taken alittle more seriously for that price, or professionally ? Pros: I definitely enjoyed walking with the Llamas / alpacas. It was something to do in the Hudson Valley that is very different and something to do in the pandemic. I only am 45 mins away. Would I travel more then 45 mins , no. But if you are a local then I would go. I have heard great things about the owner Andrea, perhaps having her as the tour guide would have changed the experience? Maybe, and I would hope so. Seeing the Animals made me smile and the hike was good exercise too! I give it a 3 star fairly not to bash their farm or anything like that , just an honest review.

Thank You Sarah for your review and will take into consideration your comments to make sure everyones experience at the farm is the best. We are a teaching farm for young people looking to learn about Agricultural Practices and Agritourism and at times we need to refresh their skill sets with proper methods when running a successful tour.

This was a perfect pandemic activity! We had so much fun outside hiking with the llamas and alpacas, getting to know their unique personalities, and learning more about them. We got a ton of great photos with our new furry friends and have been telling everyone we know to come take a tour. Highly recommended.
