Our family visited while on vacation in Cape May. We loved it. The alpacas really are adorable and my kids loved feeding them. The owner is really informative even at the public feeding. I'm sure we will be back for a private tour next year. I definitely recommend visiting. read more

Adorable alpacas! They were eager to eat the carrots and soooo fluffy! Jim gave my family and I a very detailed description of alpacas and the history of the farm. Both Jim and Tish are humane alpaca parents and I am hoping to return to the farm soon! read more

Nestled away on route 47, it would be easy to miss this place if not for the large sign on the road with an alpaca on it. We hadn't even finished parking and we were greeted by Tish. She was super friendly and answered all of my questions. They knew the best way for you to feed them the free carrots to avoid spitting. An extremely interesting experience with animals you don't get see up close and personal just anywhere. They had a small shop with plenty of great options for alpaca products. They don't charge a fee but do ask for donations which is a great system. I would come back for sure. read more

Found them on trip advisor as I'm sure most visitors do, and I am beyond thrilled that I did! This was such a great experience that I would recommend to anyone that loves animals and wants to try something a little different from typical vacation activities. My boyfriend emailed back and forth with the owners and picked a date he seemed happy with how welcoming and informative they were via e-mail. When we arrived we were greeted promptly and were given two large bags of carrots. The alpacas were so adorable and there were so many of them! We were given some great information on alpacas while feeding through the gates. We were able to go inside the girls area to feed and pet. Being surrounded by alpacas was an experience I recommend to all, they were super gentle and friendly. The owner was super friendly and informative this is a fantastic place and I hope for nothing but great things for them. * Private tours are by appointment only and are $20 a group (a fantastic deal) *Open on Saturdays to the public read more

We were down at cape may and looked at TripAdvisor on what places to go and see and of course Jersey shore alpacas popped up on the top of the list. We came here and was not disappointed. The owner of this farm was nice and friendly like what previous reviewers mentioned. We came during a time when it was raining and so the alpacas was staying under the shed to be shaded from the rain. The owner was Nice enough to let us inside the barn and be live up and close to the alpacas shaded from the rain. She gave us carrots to feed the alpacas. They were very frisky and loved carrots. They came crowding around me, my bro and bestie. We have nice videos and some pics. But what we didn't enjoy was when the alpacas started spitting at each other and at us. They do have fowl breath too. But overall they are adorable creatures and some like to be pet. Their fur is nice and fluffy. At the farm store, they sell yarn made from the alpacas fur and other items such as hats, scarves, gloves and even plush dolls made from Peru. I purchased a scarf $40 and one alpacas shape plush $30 cause I loved how the fur felt. Usually, to get up close to the alpacas you needed to reserve a private tour for $20. We got lucky we were allow a private tour for free because of the rain. Because the owner was so nice, that why I purposely brought two items from their store to support them. If you never seen alpacas before or if you just love animals I would recommend you check out this place. read more

You must go here! The owner, Jim was warm, friendly and very knowledgeable. He took me into the pen and patiently answered questions and explained the personality of each Alpaca and their relationship to each other. They even took in several handicapped alpacas that hang out together. The animals are exceptionally well cared for. They have a small gift shop on the premises and I bought an adorable alpaca toy made with alpaca hair to support their endeavors. If you love animals and/or have never seen alpacas, I would highly recommend that you make a trip here. read more

I love wAtching videos of alpacas on social media's, but it was amazing going to this farm and interacting with them. The owner is super friendly and knowledgeable. Jim even supplied us with an apron to hold carrots to feed the alpacas. Overall great experience! Highly recommend!! read more

Friendly and approachable owners and staff! Bring the kids!

We had a great visit to this wonderful family-owned farm. I scheduled a private tour for a group. Jim the owner, was very nice and accommodating. We fed the alpacas carrots and got to meet them up close! It's a fun, random thing to do in Cape May! read more

It was really nice. The tour guide was really informative and friendly. Definitely would come back!

Let me be honest and say that I am absolutely obsessed with alpacas. The owners of this farm were so nice and informative! I learned so much! They let us walk around and even gave us a bag of carrots to feed to the alpacas. It was amazing. Afterward, they let us into their shop. Again, the women at the shop was so nice and we talked for about a half hour about everything alpacas, including days that other farms hold events. Fantastic place to stop in! read more

Wow. I have never been so excited to review a business. This alpaca farm and store is run by the NICEST owners. They are passionate about their herd of alpacas (and animals in general) and will give you a tour of the herd and give you carrots to feed them. Make sure to check their website for the tour hours before arriving or call for an appointment. Their farm store carries all kinds of alpaca related products-such as yarn, clothing, and accessories. There are even stuffed animals made from alpaca roving. You could buy so many great birthday and Christmas gifts here. I especially liked some of the items produced by the fair trade coop in Peru. If you like alpacas, (who doesn't?) check them out and support a small business with a big heart. If you go, make sure to leave a donation in the box by the fence or buy some items in the farm store. read more

This little farm is definitely worth a visit. Trish, one of the owners, is warm, gracious and happily answered all our questions (I knew next to nothing about alpacas - did you know they are NOT llamas?!?) We were given carrot sticks which made the alpacas very happy. Be sure to stop by the shop; there are lots of beautiful, hand-knit items and a lovely Maine Coon cat named, Fluffy read more

A not to be missed experience. Jim gave an amazing tour. I highly recommend a private tour. You must make reservations. You get to feed and play w the Alpacas. It's such a different and fun thing to do when down the shore. It's inexpensive and so much fun!! read more

We arrived at the end of the day and got a "private tour" from the super nice hostess. She's very patient and exciting about all their babies. Introduced their different personalities. We feed them carrots and they are soft and fun to pet. read more

This was a great experience visiting my first alpaca farm. The owners and staff are very knowledgeable and friendly regarding all things alpaca. The alpacas and their land are well cared for and pleasant to visit, plus at no charge they give you a baggie of carrots to feed the alpacas! So much fun and worth a visit! read more

Great place to stop. Had a lot of fun. If your driving to Wildwood make a stop for sure.

We met the awesome owner and had a great time learning about the history of their farm, and feeding the alpacas carrots :) They're cool little animals and it's a fun experience spending time getting to know more about them. There is a donation box right on the gate, you should definitely donate if you can! They have a small gift shop as well where you can purchase everything from sweaters, scarves, and hats, to Christmas ornaments. Worth stopping in! read more

This is the second time we've been to the Cape May area, and the second time we've visited the Alpaca farm! The first time we did a public visit that they have on Saturdays, and the second time we opted for a private visit. With the private tour, we are able to step inside the pen and spend a lot more time with the Alpacas. Our tour guide knew each Alpaca and the personality of each Alpaca. It was definitely a very unique experience, and if you're around the area, not one to miss! read more

Went here with my family mid day Saturday. Not that crowded, probably about ten other people when we got there but they left halfway through. The owner of the alpaca farm was there and told us all about the alpacas. She gave each of us a generous bag of carrot strips to feed the alpacas that were there, and warned us about them spitting. We got to pet them and they didn't spit or bite. Afterwards we went into the little shop in the back of what looked like the woman's house. There were many scarves, gloves and alpaca stuffed animals all made of alpaca fur. My daughter got an alpaca stuffed animal that was a little pricey but very cute and soft. It was worth going while we were down staying in Cape May. Very nice people and a visit that will be remembered. My daughters will probably be making us visit again. All together, very fun! read more

This place is so much fun! We visited it with a private your. We got plenty of time with tge alpacas and the tour lead patiently answered our questions. Learned so much about these beautiful creatures. Petting the different alpacas and giving them the carrots was a very special experience. read more

Very nice, well kept alpaca farm. We were allowed in the fenced area to pet them. Someone explained things before we went in, and someone was in with the alpacas explaining about them. read more

Wow! A MUST SEE IN THE CAPE MAY NJ AREA! We came across this little gem after we Harvest Hosted at the Jessie's Creek Winery. Trish and Jim open their farm on Saturday's and to groups by appointment. We met (and fed carrot snacks to) their seventeen beautiful alpacas. Such stars as "Princess Leia" and the twins were very friendly. We were particularly impressed by their special needs alpaca, who is in his "furever home". The shop offered a wide variety of reasonably priced alpaca products (I love my warm and fuzzy sleep socks!). We were glad to make a donation and patronize the shop. read more

We got to feed and pet the alpacas. Jim was very attentive and informative. I bought yarn from alpaca wool at their shop; it is filled with a great collection of handmade sweaters and toys. It really was an enjoyable experience! read more

This was very informative and a lot of fun. I knew nothing about Alpacas before going and I now know way more information then I will ever need. Definitely a good idea for families because the Alpacas are so friendly and you get to feed them. read more

Jersey Shore Alpacas is amazing! My friends surprised me for my birthday with a private tour and it was perfect! Tish, one of the farmers, is so nice and very informative. She explained to us how to feed and interact with the alpacas and answered any questions we had about alpacas or her farm. We even got a bag of carrots to feed them. All of the alpacas were really well-behaved and some were even extra friendly. Because we had a private tour, we got to go inside the gates and feed and pet the alpacas. This tour is definitely worth it. Even though the farm is technically closed in February, Tish took the tour anyway, because she was free that day! The tours are said to last an hour, but we ended up staying a almost 3 hours with the alpacas and in the store picking out alpaca goodies! I bought a pair of warm socks, a hat, a Jersey Shore Alpacas long sleeve t-shirt, and a small alpaca figure. They had such cute scarves, headbands, yarn, etc. in the store! We met two of Tish's cats, Panther and Fluffy, who were really friendly! Thank you so much for an amazing experience! We definitely will be returning! read more

Jersey Shore Alpacas - Zoos Near Me - Cape May, New Jersey

My one year old son and I decided to take a spur of the moment trip to Jersey Shore Alpacas while home visiting family last week. It was easily one of our best spur of the moment decision trips, too, and we had the absolute best time. The alpacas did not disappoint in the adorable department and the farm's owners couldn't have been any more friendly, hospitable, or informative, even providing us with free carrots to feed the animals. When you consider that the outing theoretically cost us nothing (donations are appreciated) and I was able to expose my son to these beautiful creatures, we were absolutely the winners that day. Additionally, despite the temperature and humidity being oppressive that day, the wares in the farm's store were just so beautiful that I even managed to forget just how hot I was and walk away with a pair of beautiful gloves for the winter. read more

Amazing experience! Tour guide and owner so knowledgeable and kind. Private tour with our family was best part of our vacation. Will go back, again! read more

My family and I took the private tour and had so much fun! It is definitely worth the money. It was very hands-on and a great learning experience. read more

Stopped in to see the alpacas on July 4th weekend. Absolutely my favorite part of the trip to Cape May!! These little guys and girls were just the cutest. The farm owners were so friendly and gave us lots of info on the animals, as well as plenty of carrots to feed them (there is a donation box for contributions). The gift shop is really cute too and even in the 80-something degree heat, we couldn't resist buying some winter gloves and a headband! I cannot recommend this place highly enough - you will be totally charmed :-) read more
