• Flying Dutchman Alpaca - Experience a unique picnic with alpacas! Yes, an Alpaca Picnic awaits you.

Enjoy a delightful setup with your own picnic table and blanket in one of our pastures, complete with a picnic basket filled with delicious food, drinks, and all the essentials.

Relax, eat, drink, and enjoy the company of friendly alpacas. You’ll even receive some alpaca food to share. Some alpacas will be as curious about you as you are about them, while others may not notice you. However, one thing is certain: all of them will bring smiles to your face that you’ll cherish.

Let’s be honest, an alpaca picnic is irresistible!

Please note, the cost is $150 per adult and $50 per child. Ensure you specify the number of attendees so we can prepare enough food for everyone.

This is the ultimate experience in Bend for couples, families, groups, and team-building!

Additionally, while alpacas are adorable all year, for the fluffiest experience, consider booking before they are sheared in mid-May, as they will look like quirky aliens for a few months afterward.

We can accommodate most dietary preferences, including vegan, vegetarian, and keto.

This is the one and only Original Alpaca Picnic Experience.

While shooting for Quechua Benefit, a nonprofit supporting economic benefits for underserved communities in the Peruvian highlands, professional travel, nature & humanitarian photographer Wasim Muklashy met Amanda Vandenbosch, one of the world’s premiere alpaca breeders & Peru-trained alpaca judges. That encounter blossomed into a friendship which led to his living & working at Flying Dutchman Alpacas, Amanda’s family farm in Bend, OR during part of the pandemic year. Taking their morning coffee & lunch in the alpaca pasture was pure therapy & they both realized that if these floofs were therapeutic to them, they’d be therapeutic to ALL. So here they are, offering an experience with a group of floofs guaranteed to put smiles on the faces of those in the foulest of moods.

There is no other activity that will give you this level of time, experience, education and interaction with the magical creatures that are the alpaca.
