About This Adventure
Haute Goat Toodle Tour
Combine our three most popular experiences, for the perfect Toodle around the farm.
Welcome to the Toodle Tour! Where we take our favorite parts of the Goat Shmurgle, Alpaca Knuffel Shuffle, KuneKune Pig Kuddle, and combine them for an unforgettable hour of laughs, connection, and photo ops. This new tour promises no lack of interaction, with less walking than the Signature experiences.
Stars of the Toodle Tour:
Join our Alpaca & Baby Doll Sheep herd right inside their paddock. Alpacas are known to be shy, curious, sensitive, and of course super cute. Pose for a selfie with Shadow, get a kiss from Obi, and see if Feather invites you into the herd! Shaun the Sheep & his herd are very social, face rubs are their favorite! Our guides will introduce you to the herd, tell you a bit about their personalities and help you interact with them!
Kune Kune Pigs are known for their irresistible charm, adorable snouts, and of course wiggly bums. Even just watching them short around is an absolute treat. Belly rubs are the key to a pig’s heart, best way to a true connection with these gentle cuties.
The heart of the farm, our Nigerian Dwarf Goats. We welcome you to the Goat Playground where you can watch our older goats snooze, the youngsters play, babies bounce (seasonal), a perfect blend of serenity and chaos. Snuggle, give scratches, take photos, and simply enjoy the goats company.
