What a wonderful experience! I was a bit nervous that our 18 month old would be afraid because she hasn’t been around alot of larger animals but the gentle alpacas at Silverstream made her feel quite at ease and she really enjoyed patting and feeding them. Our guide was excellent and we learned so much about Alpacas and their wool. Would 100% recommend. Definitely hope to go back again!
Sherly and Kit are very accommodating, and I'm happy to learn about their journey with alpacas. We had a great time feeding the alpacas and I would highly recommend them, especially to families looking to spend quality time🤍
A wonderful family day. We had a great day hanging out on the farm. Kit was a great story teller. His stories were inspiring. Nice to hang with the Alpacas , feed them and take photos. Highly recommend.
Hi Kim So pleased you enjoyed your day out with the alpacas. They are such wonderful animals to be with and they do entertain. Always inquisitive and always flashing those beautiful eyelashes. Thank you so much for choosing Silverstream. Regards Kit
Loved every minite in the farm, amazing animals to interact with, both kids and adults are happy with the tour. Kit ( the ownner ) is so nice that he gave us so many interesting history and context that added so much more to the tour than just alpacas. Please go visit this farm if you got the time, you won't be regretted!

Well worth it
This exceeded my expectations - mainly because of the host - his passion and friendliness made this (super hot) afternoon a very memorable experience:)
