If you are looking for a fun excursion just outside of Cape May, check out Jersey Shore Alpacas. My visit to the farm was delightful. The adorable alpacas were friendly and approachable, and Jim was a great tour guide. Tish provided a lot of information about the farm and you can tell how much Tish & Jim love their alpaca family. The picturesque setting added to the charm, creating a memorable and educational experience for me.

We had a lovely time visiting here after a trip to Cape May! We had so much fun feeding and interacting with the alpacas up close! Tish was an excellent guide, and we learned a lot from her about the alpacas and what it’s like to care for them. I would definitely recommend paying this place a visit!

This is great places owned by a couple! It was very nice to learn about alpacas. The owners are very friendly and welcoming. Jim was great at explaining different traits of all the alpacas they have and he gave a great tour. Tish gave us a lot of information about their store and products and was very helpful. They really love what they do and hence their enthusiasm makes you love the place! The farm is very clean and kept very well. The alpacas are very cute and it's lovely to feed them carrots for free!

My husband and I visited the Jersey shore alpacas today. We had a great time. The crew.(Alpacas) were super sweet and friendly. The farm and alpacas are very clean and well cared for. Jimmy answered all our questions. I wanted to do this for a very long time. Had beautiful weather today as well. Very informative. Highly recommend. Appointments only.

From beginning to end, this was the best experience!!! It was so easy to book online, and I surprise my fiancé with a date to go see the alpacas. The owners are very knowledgeable and so kind and we got to feed and take pictures with all of the alpacas, while learning about each of them. I completely recommend this experience , it’s a must!!!!

What a wonderful experience! Our family had a great time and learned so many fun facts about alpacas from Trish! You can really see how much they love and care for their animals and our three year old really enjoyed feeding the alpacas their carrots! I highly recommend this especially if you are looking for something outside of the box while down at the shore! We will certainly be back! Thanks for a unique and very organized tour!

Our family highly recommends visiting this Alpaca family farm. The alpacas have a very nice life here. We enjoyed our time that we spent here at this farm. Their alpacas are very sweet and friendly. We have many fun pictures with them. If you’re looking to make memories with your family, this is the place.

Amazing time here! My husband and I made reservations about six weeks ago and are glad we did bc this place books up quick! Tish was so nice and shared so many details with us about the history of the herd and how they brought them in their home during hurricane irene. We loved meeting all of the alpacas and petting them and feeding them! A very nice one hour tour. She even took some pictures of us. Would love to come back to visit again! Thank you Tish!

We had so much fun meeting the alpacas and feeding them! Jim was a great host; teaching us about alpacas, explaining the personalities and nuances of each of their alpaca, and taking time to answer our questions. Tish was so friendly in showing the items in the store and helping us find items that we were interested in. I would 100% go again as well as recommend this experience to anyone in the Cape May area looking for something to do.

It's an alpaca farm! Reserve online because they don't do drop ins. The owners are so friendly and nice! Once you get to the farm, when it's your slot time, you're given a bag of carrots for each person and Feed the Alpacas. The first group you'll feed are the females and learn about their traits and origins. The second are the males. It's amazing how the learning experience was, with it being hands on and maybe being able to pat their head. If there's a 3rd group, those might be the alpacas who are in time out. The guide who goes with you is very informative and helps you out if you want to feed a specific alpaca, because once they see the treats in hand, ALL of them with gather at that human. After the animal farm, there's a quaint gift shop where it's items made from their fur. Small to large items whether it's toys to clothing. Also they have a website, but select few items may not be online compared to in person. Depending on the make of the fur, it gets very soft with the high quality alpaca fur. It's a lovely experience to do and a very clean farm, as all the animals look healthy. I'd love to stop by again if I'm near Cape May !

My boyfriend and I traveled all the way up from Maryland to visit. We had such a blast learning about alpacas, feeding them carrots, taking photos, laughing, and observing! Tish made our experience extra special! We were amazed by all of the goodies in the gift shop. We were a little early to our appointment and Tish recommended we go just down the street to Two Black Dogs where we arguably ate one of the best meals we've had in our ~30 years of life. Tish was extremely knowledgeable and you can tell she LOVES her alpacas. If you want to have a great time, learn something new, support a small business, or just go meet another responsible pet owner- this is the place for you!

Tish and Jim were so lovely and informative during this tour. I can tell they really adore their alpacas and I loved knowing their story. We really liked the gentle alpaca named Sebastian so we named our souvenir from the gift shop after him. It was definitely a highlight of our trip and I will be recommending to my friends!

Highly recommend scheduling a visit if you are in the Jersey Shore area. Had a great time visiting and the owner was very, very nice and informative. Him and his wife take great care of the alpacas. We were even able to pet the alpacas and feed them carrots which was really fun to do!

Went a few weeks ago on a whim- may have been one of the best experiences of my life. Tish provided the tour and gave us a full background on their life and love of alpacas. The alpacas were delightfully friendly and eager for their carrot treats. Afterwards I picked up a gorgeous pair of alpaca gloves from the gift shop and a few picture magnets of my new friends. Cannot recommend this enough!

We went for a Bachelorette party and had so much fun learning about the Alpacas and being able to interact with them. I have already booked another visit and can't wait to get some more presents for family from the gift shop!

We were greeted by Tish, the owner, who spent about 45 minutes with my family giving us the farm history and an introduction to the Alpacas. She provided each of us with a bag of carrots to give to the Alpacas. They all had such unique personalities!!! It was so informative! She and her huband, along with a few helpers have such passion for the animals and it's obvious they are well cared for! There is no fee to visit but they do accept donations which are well deserved!

I can not say enough good things about this place! We went here to take a break from alcohol on our wine tour for my best friend's bachelorette and she said it was her favorite stop of the whole weekend! We did a private tour which I HIGHLY recommend if you can because you actually get to go in the pen and feed and play with the alpacas. The animals themselves were incredibly friendly and loving which is surely a reflection of their most hospitable owners. Tish and Jim are the most wonderful people with some of the biggest hearts I've ever seen. They are incredibly knowledgable about their animals and make a visit fun for everyone. The shop is small but there are some wonderful beautifully crafted items in there and I know I stocked up for Christmas presents already! If you are in Cape May this is a must do!

This place is truly a Cape May gem! We scheduled a private tour and got the chance to get up close and personal with several of the adorable alpacas, feed them carrots, and even pet a few of them- they all have such unique and distinctive personalities! Tish could not have been kinder or more informative- she was so welcoming and shared a great deal of information about the alpacas. We learned a lot in addition to having fun! They also have a cute shop where we were able to buy some goods made from alpaca fleece after the tour. All in all, we highly recommend a visit here- thank you so much for making our trip a memorable one :)

What a wonderful experience! We were greeted immediately by one of the owners, Tish I believe, who shared the history of their farm and answered all of our questions. I wish I'd taken more photos but we were too busy learning Alpaca facts and interacting with the animals. They provide you with free carrots to feed the animals and advice on how to make the experience best for the animals as well as the visitors. The Alpacas were well behaved and very friendly. The farm itself is very well kept and the gift shop is loaded with crazy Alpaca merch. We learned a lot and had a wonderful time at the farm. Thank you!

We loved our visit to the alpaca farm! The alpacas were so sweet and it was great having an up close and personal experience! Thank you Jim and Tish for sharing your farm with us and teaching us about alpacas in general and the personalities of each of them individually. We highly recommend visiting if you have the opportunity and be sure to book in advance
