French Island Llama Experience

Recently featured on "Getaway" your experience begins with a short ferry ride across Westernport Bay (10.15am from Stony Point). We collect you from Tankerton jetty and take you to Tanderum for freshly brewed coffee and homemade cake while we complete the preparation of the llamas and answer your questions about the farm and the llamas. You may have chosen to spend a weekend on French Island in which case there are a number of accommodation options. We will discuss transport options from your island accommodation with you.

After morning tea we stroll through French Island's first olive grove as you get to know your llama. The walk then takes us along local lanes looking out for koalas and enjoying the magnificent view over Westernport Bay to Phillip Island. Approximately one and a half hours later we stop for our gourmet picnic. Native bush provides the backdrop with views of Tortoise Head on French Island and Cowes on Phillip Island.

The walk is leisurely to allow you to escape the stresses of city life. We have time to enjoy the panoramic views, take photographs and generally enjoy the company of the llamas. Lunch is picnic style featuring local produce, French Island olive oil and accompanied by local wines. This is followed by fresh coffee or tea and a tasty dessert. After a short walk back to the farm we will return you in time to catch the 4.30pm ferry back to Stony Point.

The walks are subject to weather conditions to maximise enjoyment of your llama experience and mainly operate on Saturday and Sunday. Other days may be arranged subject to ferry times. Minimum 4 People
