• 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.

This is the unique and original Alpaca Picnic Experience.

While working with Quechua Benefit, a nonprofit organization that supports economic development for underserved communities in the Peruvian highlands, professional travel, nature, and humanitarian photographer Wasim Muklashy met Amanda Vandenbosch, a leading alpaca breeder and Peru-trained alpaca judge. This meeting blossomed into a friendship, leading to his stay and work at Flying Dutchman Alpacas, Amanda’s family farm in Bend, OR, during part of the pandemic. Enjoying their morning coffee and lunch in the alpaca pasture was pure therapy, and they both realized that if these fluffy creatures were therapeutic for them, they would be for everyone. Thus, they offer an experience with a group of alpacas guaranteed to bring smiles to even the grumpiest faces.

No other activity provides this level of time, experience, education, and interaction with the enchanting creatures known as alpacas.
