An opportunity to feed sheep, alpaca and Hector, the very friendly Hereford steer plus the character-filled kuni kuni pigs. Learnt some local farming information from Cody who introduced us to the animals. Worth a visit 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 for friendly Silver Rivers staff. Thank you 🤩 (unfortunately no photos as I was busy enjoying the animals 🙂)

Lake Tekapo Petting Zoo
Such a wonderful experience! Suzie was our tour guide. She is so sweet and friendly. It is no doubt that all farm animals have been looked after so well as they showed us the excitement when they saw us. Thank you for spending time with us, Suzie, sheeps, pigs Gin and Tonic, baby calf Islay and Alpacas. We will definitely visit you all again!
