This is one of the few farm experiences on Gozo where you get a real up-close alpaca walk and a gentle feeding session with animals that seem well cared for. I like how calm the whole setup feels, plus how much time you actually spend with your alpaca instead of watching from a distance. One thing to consider: the walk includes some outdoor movement and you may cross a road on the way, so it is not ideal if you prefer zero-road walking or you are nervous on uneven ground.

Short time, hands-on animals

You arrive at Razzett Alpaca, get a quick intro from the guide (I saw names like Nicky and Melissa), then you are matched with an alpaca and guided through a slow walk at a pace that gives you time to bond and take photos. It is also not just alpacas. You will rotate through lots of other animals afterward, including Tom the cat, plus goats, rabbits, peacocks, turkeys, and more.

Key things to know before you go

• Farm-first meeting: you come directly to Razzett Alpaca, then step into the animal area fast.
• Your alpaca walk is guided: you get pointers on how to guide a calm alpaca before you head out.
• Walk time is short on purpose: the walk is usually 30 to 45 minutes, so it stays relaxed.
• Feeding is part of the deal: you feed the alpacas back at the farm and take photos then.
• You will see more than alpacas: chickens and roosters, baby chicks, goats and baby goats, dwarf rabbits and baby rabbits, pheasants, peacocks, and turkeys.

First stop: Razzett Alpaca and that small wooden door

This experience starts right at the farm. You do not need a long lead-in or complicated navigation. You go to Razzett Alpaca and look for a small wooden door with a sign that says alpaca walks on the front. It is an easy detail to miss if you are in a hurry, so I recommend you slow down when you arrive.

If you get stuck, there is a direct contact number for the provider: +35699281084. That is a helpful safety net if you are finding the farm location at dusk or in changing weather.

Bring a charged smartphone. You will want photos. This is the kind of outing where your phone stays busy: your alpaca, close-up farm animals, and the peacocks and rabbits are all photo-friendly.

The briefing: how you guide a calm alpaca

Before you head out, expect a quick briefing. You meet the alpacas, then the guide explains how these animals behave with people. The focus is not on tricks. It is about keeping things calm so you and the alpaca both feel safe and comfortable.

You also get practical pointers on how to guide your alpaca while walking. That matters more than it sounds. A docile animal still needs clear, gentle guidance, and having that basic prep makes the experience smoother for everyone.

This is also where group energy gets set. The tone is friendly and low-stress, and that is one reason this activity feels more personal than a typical animal stop.

Your alpaca walk: slow countryside bonding time

Once you are assigned to your alpaca, you take it for a short, slow-paced walk around the countryside. Plan on a walk time of about 30 to 45 minutes. The point is not distance. It is time.

Because the pace is gentle, you can do the real bonding part. You can talk softly, adjust your steps, and get used to the animal’s rhythm. If you are someone who thinks alpacas look cute but is not sure how they behave up close, this is one of the better ways to find out.

One consideration: outdoor walking is always a little unpredictable. One experience note I saw mentioned that crossing a road felt a bit scary. You can reduce that risk by keeping your attention on where you place your feet, keeping your group together, and following the guide’s instructions instantly at crossings.

Back at the farm: feeding time and a friendly photo moment

After the walk, you return to the farm. This is where the experience shifts from walking to interaction. You get food for the alpacas and feed them. It is hands-on without feeling rushed, and it is a nice follow-up because you already know your alpaca a little from the walk.

This feeding moment also tends to create the best photos. You get that close-up look while you are holding the food, and the alpaca is usually focused on the snack. Keep your camera ready, but also keep your hands steady. The best photos come from calm behavior, not frantic movement.

Then you move through the rest of the farm animals. Think of it as a slow circuit through the animal areas, with plenty of time to look, take pictures, and learn how the animals are kept.

The rest of the animal cast: rabbits, peacocks, turkeys, and Tom the cat

If you only wanted alpacas, you would still feel like you got your money’s worth. But the farm extends the day with a broad mix of animals, and that is a big part of the fun.

Here are the animals you can expect to see as you move through the farm:

• Tom, the adorable cat
• Chickens and roosters
• Baby chicks
• Peacocks
• Turkeys
• Goats and baby goats
• Dwarf rabbits and baby rabbits
• Pheasants

That variety changes the rhythm of the visit. One minute you are watching a peacock show off its feathers, and the next minute you are looking at bunnies up close. It also makes the experience feel more like a working farm than a single-animal attraction.

Also, the animals are presented as part of everyday care, not props. The guides tend to keep things respectful and calm, which helps you enjoy the interaction instead of feeling like you are rushing through a highlight list.

The viewpoint stop: why the timing feels right

There is a photo stop at a viewpoint during the 1 hour experience window. The timing works because you have already been introduced to the alpacas. You are not just walking for scenery. You have a purpose, then you get a brief outside view moment for photos.

This is a small detail, but it adds to the sense of place. Gozo is not just pretty from a distance. It feels better when you have short moments outdoors that let you look around and reset.

Guide energy matters: Nicky and Melissa set the tone

A big part of why people rate this experience so highly is the guide. Names like Nicky and Melissa show up in the feedback, and the common thread is how friendly and approachable the guide feels.

You will not be talked at for an hour. You get short explanations, hands-on guidance, and space to enjoy the animals. If you speak English or Maltese, you should feel comfortable asking questions. A live guide also means you get little course corrections in real time, which is a comfort when you are walking with an animal.

One more practical point: if you arrive late or something weird happens, the guides seem ready to work through it with kindness. That matters because farms are weather-and-time sensitive.

Price and time: is $71 per person worth it?

The price is about $71 per person for a 1 hour experience. On paper, it is short. In practice, it is not just a quick look. You get:

• a farm visit
• a guided walk with a matched alpaca
• alpaca feeding with included food
• time to meet a whole group of other farm animals

Value is about what you are actually doing. Here, you are participating, not observing. You are also getting a real guided interaction (briefing, walk pointers, assigned alpaca) rather than a self-led petting session.

For couples, solo travelers, and families, the biggest value is the closeness: you get to feed, pet, and photograph in a way that you usually only see in longer animal experiences. If you like hands-on animal time and want something simple that fits into a busy Gozo day, this price can feel reasonable.

Who this Gozo experience suits best

This is a great match if you:

• want a hands-on animal encounter without a complicated plan
• like slow, calm activities
• enjoy photos and close-up interaction (with rabbits, peacocks, and more)
• prefer a farm setting over a large zoo-style layout

It may not be your ideal choice if:

• you strongly dislike any uneven outdoor walking or road crossings
• you are looking for a long hiking-style experience
• you want lots of sitting time or indoor facilities (this is outdoors)

Quick practical tips that make the experience smoother

A few small choices can improve your visit:

• Keep your smartphone charged and ready. You will take lots of photos.
• Wear closed-toe shoes. Farm paths and countryside ground can be uneven.
• Follow the guide immediately at crossings and tighter areas. That is where safety matters most.
• If you are a little anxious around animals, start by watching your guide’s pace. The alpacas are described as calm, and your calm behavior helps.

Also, weather can affect plans. The activity can be cancelled due to weather conditions, so it is smart to check closer to your booking time if the forecast looks rough. When outdoor conditions change, the farm needs to keep animals and people comfortable.

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

Yes, if you want a short, friendly, hands-on farm experience on Gozo. This works best when you value interaction over long duration. The best reason to book is simple: you get both an alpaca walk and feeding, then you also meet a lot of other animals like peacocks, rabbits, turkeys, and goats—plus Tom the cat.

If you are the type who likes quiet, close encounters and you are okay with a bit of outdoor walking, this will likely feel like money well spent.

If you are worried about road crossings or you dislike outdoor movement, you might still enjoy the farm portion, but think twice about the walk part. Otherwise, this is an excellent activity to add when you want something genuinely different from the usual sightseeing rhythm.
