Alpacas on Gozo turn a short hour into a story. This farm-based alpaca walk pairs a gentle countryside stroll with hands-on feeding time and photo moments that feel more personal than most animal meet-and-greets. The experience is best if you want calm animal interaction and a clear plan, not a long trek.

I especially like the way the session is run: you get a quick briefing, you’re assigned an alpaca, and you guide it at a slow pace so you can actually bond. Guides like Nicky and Melissa come across as friendly and practical, and they keep things respectful around the animals.

One thing to plan around: the activity can be cancelled due to weather conditions, so if you’re on a tight schedule, keep one flexible time slot.

Key things to know before you go

• A short, slow alpaca walk (about 30–45 minutes) so you can focus on the animals, not rushing
• Feeding included, plus food is provided when you return to the farm
• A real farm visit with lots of other animals beyond alpacas
• A helpful guide briefing that tells you how to guide a calm, docile alpaca
• Photo-friendly setup, especially if you show up with a charged smartphone

What happens in the 1-hour Razzett Alpaca farm visit

The timing is simple, which I like. You’re at Razzett Alpaca for about 1 hour, and the flow is built around two main phases: the alpaca walk, then the farm animal time.

You’ll meet at the farm directly (no included pickup). The entry point is a small wooden door with a sign called alpaca walks on the front, so it’s worth arriving with enough daylight/time to find it easily.

Once you’re there, expect a quick briefing before you’re paired up with an alpaca. That matters because when you know what to do—how to guide your animal calmly—the whole experience feels smoother and less stressful for everyone.

The guide runs the show in English or Maltese, and the vibe from the on-site staff is consistently described as kind and respectful. It’s not just about letting you hold an animal for photos; the goal is to make you comfortable and help you move safely with the group.

The alpaca walk: slow pace, countryside views, and gentle guidance

The walk part is the core experience. After the briefing, you’re assigned a tame alpaca and take it for a short, slow-paced walk around the countryside, usually 30–45 minutes.

I like that the pace is intentionally unhurried. You’re there to bond with one alpaca, learn what it’s like to guide a calm animal, and take photos without sprinting from one stop to the next.

Along the way, there’s also time built in for a viewpoint moment—think photo stop plus guided tour time—so you get more than just animal time. Gozo’s countryside is where this experience makes sense: it’s laid-back, and the walk feels like part of the island rather than a detour.

One practical consideration: depending on the route, you may need to cross areas where it can feel a bit exposed. One review mentions that crossing the road felt scary for a moment—so if you’re traveling with kids, or if you’re cautious around traffic, keep that in mind and listen carefully to your guide.

Back at the farm: feeding alpacas and getting the best photos

After the walk, you return to the farm for the feeding portion—this is where the experience turns extra hands-on. You’ll feed the alpacas using food provided as part of the tour, so you don’t have to worry about bringing supplies.

Feeding time also gives you the chance to slow down and really interact. You can usually get closer, watch how the alpacas approach, and take photos that don’t feel staged.

I recommend having your phone ready before you start feeding. The tour info specifically suggests bringing a charged smartphone, and in practice this is smart: you’ll want both wide shots and close-ups, and you don’t want to scramble for power while the best moment is happening.

If you want good photos, keep your movements calm and predictable. Alpacas are docile, but you’ll get better results when you follow the guide’s cues rather than trying to move faster than the animals want to.

The rest of the animal yard: rabbits, peacocks, turkeys, goats, and more

The second half of your hour is basically a mini farm tour. Once the alpaca segment is done, you’ll spend time around other animals, and this is one of the reasons I think the visit feels like more than a one-trick activity.

Here’s what you can expect to see: chickens and roosters, baby chicks, peacocks, turkeys, goats and baby goats, dwarf rabbits and baby rabbits, pheasants, and even an on-site cat named Tom.

This mix is why it works for different ages and interests. If someone in your group isn’t as thrilled about alpacas, they still get plenty to look at—rabbits are busy, peacocks are dramatic, and goats add motion and personality.

What stands out from the reviews is the feeling that the animals are well cared for. People repeatedly point out that the guides treat the animals with care and respect, not just as photo props. That difference matters to me because it changes the tone of your time there.

Guides and animal care: why the experience feels calm

A lot of animal experiences are chaos disguised as fun. This one is built to stay calm and guided, with a quick explanation at the start so you know how to act around your alpaca.

You’ll get pointers on how to guide your alpaca on the walk. That’s not a throwaway detail. When you’re given simple instructions—how to hold position, how to move slowly, how to stay attentive—the alpaca walk feels like bonding instead of managing.

The staff also come through as friendly and approachable in the feedback, and I like that because you’re dealing with animals that respond to your energy. If the guide is relaxed, you’re more likely to be relaxed too, which benefits both you and the alpacas.

Names like Nicky and Melissa show up in reviews as guides who explain a lot and keep the experience enjoyable. Even if you don’t get one of those specific guides, the consistent message is that you’ll get real attention and honest guidance during the visit.

Price and value: what $71 buys you on Gozo

At $71 per person for about 1 hour, this isn’t a budget activity. But when I look at what’s included—alpaca farm visit, the walk with alpacas, alpaca feeding, and food for the alpacas—it starts to look like fair pricing for hands-on animal time.

What makes the value feel more solid is that you’re not just watching from a distance. You get a dedicated alpaca walk segment, plus feeding, plus time around multiple other animals. That combination is hard to find in a short time slot.

Two costs you should remember: pickup and drop-off aren’t included (you can arrange it), and drinks/snacks aren’t included. So the real value depends partly on how you’re getting there and whether you plan to grab something before or after.

For a family or a small group, it can be a worthwhile use of a Gozo hour—especially if you want something structured that doesn’t require a big tour day.

Practical tips so your visit goes smoothly

A few small prep steps can make this tour feel easy instead of rushed.

• Bring a charged smartphone: you’ll take photos during the viewpoint moment and during feeding time.
• Wear shoes you can walk in: the walk is short, but you’re moving through farm/countryside terrain.
• Follow your guide during crossing points: one review flags that crossing the road can feel a bit scary, so listen and move when told.
• Expect weather to matter: the tour can be cancelled due to weather conditions, so don’t plan it as the one guaranteed anchor activity on your day.

Also, think about timing. Since this is only an hour long, schedule it when you can actually give it your attention—right after you arrive on Gozo or early in your day tends to work well.

If you’re the kind of person who likes animal time but also likes a clear plan, this tour fits. If you’re hoping for an all-day farm experience, you might find it short—though the short length is also part of why it’s accessible.

Who this alpaca walk suits best

This is a good match for you if you want a gentle, structured animal experience. It’s especially appealing if:

• you like hands-on interactions (feeding and guidance) rather than just looking
• you want a photo-friendly outing with lots of variety
• you’re traveling with kids or a group where not everyone wants a long hike

It’s also a solid choice if you’re on Gozo for a limited time. One hour means you can add it without turning your day into logistics.

If you’re very sensitive about animal handling, you should still be aware that you’ll be guiding your alpaca and moving close enough for real interaction. The alpacas are described as calm and friendly, but this is still an active experience, not a passive one.

Should you book Gozo Alpaca Walks with feeding and farm visit?

I’d book it if you want a short, well-run animal experience with variety—alpacas first, then a mini tour around other farm animals like rabbits, peacocks, goats, chickens, and Tom the cat. The most praised part across the experience is the combination of friendly guides, the calm docile alpacas, and the sense that animals are cared for properly.

Skip it or keep expectations flexible if you know your schedule is tight and you’re relying on this being guaranteed, because weather can cancel the activity. And if you’re uneasy around any crossing points, be prepared to rely on your guide and take your time.

If you’re visiting Gozo and you want something fun that feels more like a farm visit than a theme-park show, this one is easy to recommend.
