Daily, Year-Round
Llama encounters are typically available 60 days out.
Join us in the Be a Zookeeper Zone for a fun, informative llama meet and greet! Jorge and Fernando were deemed "too social" to continue being trekking companions—which is why they've become two of our most beloved and charismatic Animal Ambassadors. With this special and intimate experience, you'll have the opportunity to "buy out" a llama encounter for up to six members of your personal pod. Learn all about these handsome, long-lashed Casanovas and get to know their distinct personalities as you watch a private training session.
