Thank You for your super review Carol.
It truly warms my heart when an animal lover such as yourself can see what we do here.
Many of our... read more customers get real enjoyment from the alpacas, however an animal lover has an insight that others may not and hence your review warms my heart to see that we are getting it right.
We look forward to seeing you again.

8/09/2020We had a great time trekking with the Alpacas, it was a wonderful and unique experience. It's obvious from the moment you arrive that the Alpacas integrity, respect and sense... read more of comfort is of most importance. This immediately put myself as an animal lover at ease. The Alpacas were visibly happy, chilled, adorable and seemed to really enjoy the trekking. Throughout the course of the trek the Alpacas individual personalities really come to light which was really fun to see. We had a really fun time and it was obvious the Alpacas did too. They know the trekking route and got super excited towards the feeding part. Overall, an amazing experience, definitely one to tick off the bucket list. The set up is great. The shop is definitely worth a look. We will be back in the winter to see the Alpacas in all their fine fiber!!
8/08/2020Joe was amazing and full of knowledge. It was very clear from the beginning that the animal welfare was priority number one at all times. Joe was so attentive, friendly... read more and enthusiastic from the get go. Experiencing alpacas up close and personnel was amazing and we all, humans and alpacas, enjoyed our walk through Joes beautiful Wicklow farm. An absolute must!!

I was waiting with my review because I didn't want to write my opinion until I learn more about alpacas behaviour and alpaca walks. I also liked the 2 ladies... read more who were giving a walk and this opinion does not apply to them. I feel that having that many animals with so many people doing the walk is not good for them. I did other walks in small or very small groups and the animals were happy and relaxed. But with K2 they walked in chaotic way and seemed stressed. I felt very bad about that. My alpaca started to make a crying noise but when I asked if it is OK, I was told it was a happy noice. Now I know this is not true. I feel very bad that I was the cause of it as I am a big animal lover. Maybe the situation has changed since December and the groups are smaller.
7/06/2020My amazing fiancé booked us a weekend away to Dublin for my 30th birthday last weekend and decided to hire a car and take me to the Alpaca trek as... read more he knows how much I love Alpaca. This experience was amazing to be so close to the animals and walk with them is something I will never forget! Thanks to Joe and his team for allowing these days to happen you made turning 30 a good one! We will be back for sure. Kirsty & Nathan (Glasgow)
