The Main Event

This Walk An Alpaca Experience with Afternoon Tea is just the thing to make someone smile! Ideal for animal lovers, outdoor enthusiasts, or anyone who simply wants to escape the noise of everyday life, this experience delivers on charm, relaxation, and a fair bit of fluff!

Set in the peaceful countryside, the experience begins with a quick health and safety briefing and some fun alpaca facts, did you know they hum when they’re happy? You’ll then be shown how to lead your alpaca before being paired up with your new four-legged friend. These gentle, curious creatures are full of personality, and there’s plenty of time for selfies and snaps to capture the moment.

With expert guides on hand throughout, you’ll enjoy a relaxed, scenic walk with your alpaca, soaking up the fresh air and laid-back vibes. It’s the perfect way to slow things down and enjoy a slice of nature at a gentler pace.

Once your stroll is done, it’s time to tuck into a well-earned afternoon tea. Sit back and enjoy a delicious selection of sandwiches, sweet treats, and of course, the all-important scones with jam and cream, all served with a hot cup of tea or coffee.

Whether it’s a birthday gift, a fun day out for couples, or a unique idea for friends and family, this alpaca adventure is something truly memorable. It's not every day you get to say you’ve made friends with an alpaca and followed it up with cake.

So if you're after a thoughtful, heart-warming gift that brings together the best of the countryside and a touch of indulgence, this is it. Unusual? Yes. Unforgettable? Absolutely.
