Came here earlier this year. My profile pic is of a vicuña head. Great place to learn about South American camelids. There is also a small exhibit/museum telling you the history of these animals etc.

Staff is bilingual and very welcoming. Very touristy as well.

Entrance is free and the location is in an alright area. Taxi ride from downtown takes 10 mins or so and only costs a few dollars. Don’t remember exactly how much though.

Bring a jacket as it can get a bit chilly at times.

There’s a huge pen where you can interact and feed the llamas, and aplacas. They are very friendly and cuddly, but beware that they can also spit and run away if they feel threatened.

There is also a store available selling a range of alpaca products. All of their merchandise is made in Peru and is well made. I bought a few items. They also sell some vicuña as well but it’s verrry expensive.

Vicuña scarves and gloves start from $500 USD and up. A vicuña jacket/blazer can cost as much as $18K USD. Feel free to try some vicuña items on as you’ll probably never own a vicuña item! It’s very soft and can only be experienced in person.

In conclusion, it’s a good place to spend a few hours and admire the scenery as well. Thanks. 🇵🇪🦙😍
