What a lovely way to spend an afternoon, walking these special animals along a long and beautiful beach. The kids just loved it. Pav and Mark are the loveliest people and you can tell how much they care for their animals. We also stayed at their place for the night - accommodation and hospitality was exceptional. Mark and Pav are incredibly gracious hosts. Rescued me when my breakfast plans went awry with fresh honey and Pav's beautiful homemade bread. Will definitely be back.

What a fantastic experience. Sure, you can visit a farm, or many zoo’s to see Alpaca’s, but there is nothing like the close up experience of walking Alpaca’s on a beautiful beach like Bream Bay in Waipu, Northland. We arranged to have three Alpaca’s to walk, and by walk, you actually take them yourself and lead them on a one hour walk along the beach (Pav and Mark have other Alpaca’s so you can arrange to walk with more than three). The Alpaca’s are effortless to handle and will happily wade into the sea up to knee depth. Pav and Mark are the owners of the Alpaca’s, and are both great people. Pav escorts you on the walk giving full instruction and advice while leaving the Alpaca’s totally in your control. While walking along, we had many people stop and take photos, and ask questions. Funnily enough, many people mistakenly thought they were Lama’s. It takes an experience like this to make you appreciate these wonderful animals and marvel at their character. This is an inexpensive “must do” for every animal lover, and children are very welcome. We intend to do this again, because it is great. “Do it”. Thanks so much to Pav and Mark for making this all
