Lovely!! Beautiful spot, llamas,alpacas and host Marla. Truly exceptional! Highly recommended. Did the 1.5 forest walk. Will be back!

This was such an amazing experience! What a beautiful farm and a beautiful property and the animals are just so sweet and very well taken care of! The lady who led the tour was so knowledgeable and taught us so much about the animals. She is very passionate about this property and the farm animals. This was a birthday present for my daughter. We truly enjoyed everything. We thought the little gift shop was so cute. We bought a couple of things, there were treats for us to eat and drinks that were complementary. The walk through the foresty area with the alpacas were just hands-down, my favorite experience ever, being an animal lover, This was just so special and my daughter felt the same. Definitely a birthday to remember! It was really fun to feed them afterward and watch them run around and try to steal each other's food! They were so sweet, I can't wait to do this again someday!

Topstall Farm is located in Roy, Washington, about 56 miles south of Seattle. Here for a 2 hour tour, you can learn about camelid animals including alpacas and llamas. It's just a brief 10 minute introduction about them, then you get to enter the barn and feed the alpacas with a bowl of pellets. Next, it's time for the main event...which is taking your own llama out for a one mile roundtrip hike through the forest. Along the way, the owner snaps a few pictures of you walking and handling the llama, including a brief recording. She then airdrops the clips to you at the end of the tour. Price is $85. Tours are given from Thursdays through Sundays at 11am and 2pm. You can sign up at their website which is topstallfarm.com. It's 10 people maximum per tour. If interested, they do offer half day tours for 4 total hours where you take your llama out for an extended period of time getting to have a picnic in the great outdoors before returning back to the farm. The price of this tour was $275. When I checked their website, these tours were given sporadically. I got to walk and hang out with Lafayette, the llama, who was so gentle and kind and gave me no problems. It was a pleasure spending time with him. Out on the farm, they only have male llamas and alpacas. They don't breed. And...Topstall Farm is not a rescue farm or sanctuary. Rules are you cannot pet or make nice to the alpacas or llamas. They don't like their space being invaded. They're not house pets like dogs. Their main purpose in life is to stay banded together as a group and avoid predators. At the end of the hike, you can wash your hands off inside the barn and you're offered complimentary snacks and drinks. They have a small gift shop to purchase a souvenir as a fond memory. Overall, I enjoyed the experience. I just would have liked more pictures and videos interacting with the llamas.

Topstall Farm recently went "viral" on TikTok with a great little video about the llama and alpaca experience. I live about 45 minutes away and couldn't wait to check it out. Marla, the farmer/proprietor/business owner, met us at the gate and was warm and welcoming. She told us all about the animals and their origins. I was confident that Marla always had the animals' best interest and safety in mind and that we were contributing to giving the animals a good experience, not using animals just to give us humans an experience. After an educational intro, we got to feed the alpaca and take the llamas for a walk in the woods. I gladly would have spent longer walking the llamas, it really was like a walking meditation. After the walk (about a mile, out and back), there were cold drinks and snacks and a gift shop where I bought yarn made from the alpaca we just met and fair-trade alpaca and llama gifts. I'm not one to play favorites (ok, maybe I am) but Coconut was my favorite alpaca, Milo was my favorite llama, Chester melted my husband's heart, and de Gaulle gave the best llama kisses. I highly recommend this unique way to spend a day for any adults looking to get a little connection with nature and animals.

Marla is warm and welcoming! The 1K stroll with the llamas was informative and interesting; learned a lot about llamas and alpacas.

A friend of mine and I recently went to Topstall Farms. As it turned out, we were the only ones in attendance, and practically being neighbors, may have stepped outside the box a little bit as Marla gave us her presentation and tour. I had been around llamas and alpacas before and had some knowledge of them but Marla is definitely the camelid guru. As luck would have it, I earned my sticker the second I walked through the gate to feed them. Marla's facility is very clean and her alpacas, and llamas are well fed and well maintained. The information she imparts, during the tour and the trek, does not go over one's head. My friend did not feel overwhelmed due to her lack of knowledge. If you knit or crochet, there are many varieties and beautiful colors of yarns for sale in her store. There are also blankets and other camelid related items. There is also a complimentary snack bar for refreshments before and after the trek. I highly recommend taking the tour. You won't be disappointed.

We had the absolute best time! We are from California and took a trip here to Washington for my birthday and this experience was one of the selling points for me. The animals are extremely well cared for and sweet and the approach Marla takes in taking care of them is spectacular. Truly one of the best experiences I have had in a long while.

Highly recommend this immersive experience! This has been my absolute favorite experience so far! The farm was absolutely beautiful and clean. The fur friends were so fun to be around. Marla was an absolute great tour guide and taught us so much about llamas and alpacas. She's an amazing host with great energy and you can tell she absolutely cares about the animals!

We've visited Topstall Farms twice and love the experience. Llamas have a peaceful aura so it's such a treat to spend time with them. They are able to roam freely in the barn and in their fenced field. Marla, the host is wonderful and trusts her guests with the animals and provides a good amount of education about them. She's super passionate about llamas and alpacas and you can tell that she's happy to have visitors come and share in the experience. The tour consists of walking through the barn, feeding the alpacas, and taking the llamas on a walk.

My partner and I had the most fun visiting Topstall Farm. Marla is not only incredibly knowledgeable about the alpacas and llamas, but shares her knowledge with such enthusiasm and joy that it's contagious. All of the animals are treated so well and every activity is planned with their comfort at the forefront of decisions. Marla happily captures plenty of wonderful pictures to commentate the adventure. The time flies by as you move throughout the experience, but the memories of the day last far beyond. Worth every penny! I'm really looking forward to family and friends visiting so I can go again!

My partner and I had an amazing time here at the farm! The animals were so precious and it was clear they were VERY well-cared for. The host was very friendly and knowledgeable and put a lot of effort in making sure everyone was having a good time and comfortable. The experience is very enjoyable, it starts off with learning some facts about the animals and then feeding some alpaca's. Then you go on a well shaded beautiful hiking trail with one of the llama's by your side. They were very well trained, but the host lets you know some tips to better walk with them if you have any issues. After the hike we were offered some refreshing beverages and treats and got to see some very impressive and beautiful handmade rugs from the alpaca's fur themselves. The host takes pictures during your experience and sends them to you at the end so you can enjoy yourself without a phone in your hand trying to capture the precious moments. I would highly recommended this experience for any fellow animal lovers!

The experience of hiking a mile with a llama beat all of my expectations! Marla was so nice and her tutorial on the difference between llama and alpaca was very educational. She has a quaint little gift shop of blankets Etc made from the fibers of the animals on her farm. I would definitely treat yourself to this experience. It's truly one of a kind! read more

Topstall is an excellent operation. Marla does a great job of combining education and interaction with the llamas and alpacas that includes an easy hike through the nearby forest whereby each guest gets to bond with their own llama, followed by a feeding reward. It's llke walking a mellow 300 lb dog that eats vegetation. She also has a gift shop and complementary snacks for guests. The Topstall herds are gentle and engaging. Anyone that loves animals will really enjoy this experience. Very highly recommended! read more

Really nice owner!! We greeted very pleasantly as she was waiting for a tour to start. We explained we were simply here to see the llamas and she walked us over to the llamas kept inside the barn. We took pictures and she then suggested to pet the therapy llama. Afterwards as the real tour was going to start we bought some souvenirs and left.

Marla was so knowledgeable and charismatic! I went in not knowing the difference between Llamas and alpacas, and with the misconception that llamas would spit at anyone. We went on the 1 mile hike and I felt honored that Armando chose me to walk him! I was recovering from a hip injury and nervous about my ability to participate, but besides a few rocks along the path, it was even and fairly flat. I appreciate that Marla is so knowledgeable about her animals and I could tell that she cares deeply for all of them! The education we received was valuable and the product we purchased after are high quality and reasonably priced. All in all the experience was definitely worth more than the cost! read more

I visited Topstall Farm in November 2022, and it was a wonderful way to spend the morning. Marla is extremely knowledgeable and engaging and a very caring owner of the farm and the animals. The farm is beautiful and peaceful. On the tour you learn about the animals, their care, you get to feed them, and to walk a llama! It's a unique experience not too far outside of Seattle - I highly recommend it. read more

What an amazing experience! Marla's farm is a true gem. We had a blast learning about all of the camelids, feeding them, and strolling through the lush trail. Marla is an excellent host; mixing factoids with humor, fielding our questions, and managing the animals masterfully. The farm and barn is clean and well organized. There are even snacks at the end of the stroll, along with a shop that has special items shorn from the same alpacas you get to meet! It's a truly unique experience that we couldn't recommend enough. read more

6/5 Had so much fun bringing my sister for her birthday as a surprise! It was just us two and we enjoyed EVERY minute.

We just had to get a new beanie and adorable llama stuffy made with real fiber! Grab your friends... go walk the llamas at Topstall farm! So worth the $$!! read more

You can't deny the magical quality of Llamas. My two sons and I were lucky enough to experience Topstall Farm as they begin offering llama encounters. They are curious and gentle creatures that are exciting to be near. Marla knows everything about them and is great at explaining things to kids and adults alike. We had a great time walking with the llamas and talking with Marla. The barn is amazing, too, and the entire atmosphere is calm and recharging. Definitely worth the drive from Seattle! I can't wait to go back and see the llamas again, and see what they've added. I highly recommend spending time there. read more

Looking for a fun, unique, educational and chill activity? Look no further than TopStall Farms! I had the exciting chance of booking a two hour tour/hike with Marla and her well cared for alpacas and llamas. As soon as I arrived, Marla was waiting in the parking lot with a warm smile and an excitement to show her herd and farm. She gave me a quick tour letting me know where the (clean) facilities were, the stocked cafe (warm and cold drinks with snack) and of course the lovely gift shop! Her farm is clean, and beautifully renovated with crisp white and vibrant colors! Such a cute place to snap some pictures. You can immediately tell how well loved the "Pacas" and llamas are. They look for Marla and respond so well to her being in their space. She went into great detail about the origination of the species, and I got to take a guess on the differences between the species as Marla gave me more and more information on each of the animals. I was so thrilled to learn about their fur, demeanor of camelids. After Marla reviewed safety (and spit) precautions, we walked through the barn and met some llamas, I got to feed the alpacas and hear some of their unique sounds and witness their behaviors up close. Marla had the llamas we'd be walking harnessed and ready to go! We talked about proper walking procedures, and keeping a steady pace. We headed out towards the trail and had a great time walking, talking and grazing! Marla took great pictures and videos for me and air dropped them to my phone before I left. Overall, I highly recommend this adventure to anyone looking to learn more about llamas, immerse themselves in a nature experience or for a fun date! Marla and the herd definitely will not disappoint! read more

Marla's llama farm tour offers a wonderful and memorable experience for all visitors of all ages. The farm showcases creatures- llamas and alpacas that captivate guests with their unique charm. Marla herself is knowledgeable, kind, and engaging, making the two hour tour both educational and enjoyable. The tour moves at a comfortable pace, allowing visitors to learn about the animals, their care and the farmers operations. Additionally, the gift store is a highlight, featuring handmade items crafted from the alpacas on the farm providing a special souvenir to remember the visit. Overall, this tour is highly recommended, earning a solid 10/10 for its quality, hospitality and unique offerings. Thank you Marla! read more

Loved my visit to Topstall Farm. We toured the historic barn that is home to ducks, chickens and a pair of Barn owls and learned some of the history of this 1940's barn. Marla, our guide, shared her knowledge of and affection for her herd of llamas and alpacas before we walked llamas on a beautiful trail in a mature forest. This was time well spent and quite an adventure!!! read more
