Llamas, pizza, and a slow country walk. I love the close-up barnyard animal time and the included 10-inch wood-fired pizza lunch, both in a real farm setting. One thing to think about: the experience runs outdoors and is weather-dependent, so you’ll want flexible plans if it’s a rough day.

This is a simple, feel-good outing at Dancing Goat Therapy Farm near Burtts Corner. You’ll get a guided visit with birds and other farm animals, then a calm walk with llamas and goats through pastures, a woodlot, and along a river. It’s also set up as a private tour for just your group, which makes the whole vibe more relaxed and personal.

Key highlights you’ll feel right away

• Petting-zoo access with chickens, ducks, turkeys, geese, and more farm birds
• Gentle llama selfies plus a slow-paced walk suited for all ages and ability
• A real farm lunch: 10-inch pizza made with farm-fresh ingredients
• Wood-fired oven moments you might even get to watch (or help, depending on timing)
• Wildlife spotting on the route as you move through pastures and natural areas

Dancing Goat Therapy Farm: small moments that make it feel real

Dancing Goat Therapy Farm is the kind of place where you’re not just looking from a distance. You start by being welcomed by the barnyard animals, and that sets the tone: hands-on, calm, and unhurried. You’re encouraged to hang out with the animals, feed them, and just take your time soaking in how a working farm feels.

It’s also a good match for people who like animals but don’t want a complicated program. This tour is short (about 2 hours), so you get the highlights without feeling rushed. And because it’s offered as a private activity for your group, it tends to feel more conversational and less like a production line.

As for what you’ll likely remember: the friendly, close interaction with llamas and the steady rhythm of the walk afterward. That mix of animal time and outdoors time is the whole point here.

The 2-hour flow: barnyard welcome, llama-goat walk, then lunch

Your outing follows a simple sequence, all based at the farm and ending back where you start. First, you meet the barnyard animals. That’s your warming-up phase: chickens, ducks, turkeys, geese, and other birds, with opportunities to feed and settle in.

Next comes the part that sets this experience apart: meeting the llamas and goats and going for a slow-paced walk through the countryside. This route takes you through their pastures, a woodlot, and a river area. The goal is a gentler pace, which is exactly what makes it work for different ages and ability levels.

Then you shift again into the reward phase: lunch with the llamas in their pasture. Dining is outdoors, set in the farm’s backdrop, so the meal doesn’t feel like a separate stop. It feels like part of the farm day. Each guest gets a 10-inch wood-fired pizza, served with farm-fresh ingredients.

Barnyard animals and a petting zoo you can actually interact with

If you love farm animals, this is where the experience earns its keep. You’ll spend time with a mix of birds and farm animals, including the usual crowd like chickens and ducks, plus turkeys and geese. The key detail is that you’re not stuck behind a fence for the whole visit. You can feed the animals and spend time hanging out with them.

There’s also a hint of “farm day” magic if everything aligns: you might be able to gather fresh eggs during your visit. That’s not something you should count on every time, but it’s the kind of extra that makes people linger and smile.

One practical note: bird encounters can be messy by nature. Wear clothes you don’t mind getting a little dusty or farm-splashed, and keep your phone protected if you’re planning lots of photos.

This animal stage is also a great way to set up the rest of the tour. When you calm down and watch how the animals move, the llama portion tends to feel even more soothing.

The llama and goat walk: calm pace, countryside route, easy for most people

The llama part is built around a slower experience. You’ll walk with the llamas and goats through pastures, a woodlot, and along a river. The pacing is the point: you’re meant to slow your own gear down, not power through a hike.

The tour also leans into the animal-to-human connection. Llamas are described as gentle giants with a calming effect, and the overall plan is to help you connect with the animals in a relaxed way. In practical terms, that means you’re likely to walk steadily, not briskly, and you’ll have time to look around.

As you go, keep your eyes open for local wildlife. That’s one of those details that can turn a simple walk into a memorable one, because nature surprises are often what you notice most once you slow down.

Because it’s suited for all ages and ability, you don’t need to train for this route like you would for a steep trail hike. Still, bring supportive footwear. You’re moving on farm paths and natural ground, and comfort matters more than speed.

Lunch with llamas: wood-fired pizza in the outdoor farm backdrop

After the walk, lunch is served outdoors, in the farm’s dining area set against the background of the property. The setting is part of the appeal: you’re still in the pasture atmosphere, not in a separate building where the day suddenly feels commercial.

Each guest is served a 10-inch wood-fired pizza made with farm-fresh ingredients. You can choose among cheese, Hawaiian, or meat. That’s a helpful range if you’re traveling with mixed tastes, and it keeps lunch simple and satisfying.

There’s also a chance you may participate in the pizza-making experience, depending on timing. You might toss the pizza in open air or watch it cook on the wood-fired oven. Even if you’re not actively helping, watching the oven process is usually the highlight that makes lunch feel like an event, not just food.

If you’re thinking about value, this is where it becomes clear: you’re paying for both time and a full meal, served in a genuinely farm-based way.

Price and value: what $56.20 gets you on a farm day

At $56.20 per person for roughly 2 hours, you’re not just buying entry to a generic animal attraction. You’re getting a guided farm experience with multiple parts: barnyard animal interaction, a llama-and-goat walk, and lunch with a wood-fired pizza.

The value is strongest if you care about the full package. If you want only a quick look at animals, this might feel like more than you need. But if you want hands-on time with barnyard birds, a calm llama walk, and a real meal afterward, the price starts to make a lot more sense.

The also-matter detail: you’re on-site at a place that clearly runs like a working farm. That kind of setting can feel more authentic than packaged, urban petting-zoo experiences.

If you’re trying to decide, think about what you’d pay for a guided animal visit plus a proper lunch elsewhere. Here, those pieces are bundled together in one smooth flow.

Practical tips: make it an easy yes

This tour runs on a weather-dependent schedule, so plan for the fact that you’re mostly outdoors. If rain or poor conditions roll in, the farm may adjust plans. Flexible timing is your friend.

Wear shoes that handle farm ground. Think traction and comfort over style. Also consider bringing sunglasses and sun protection if the day is bright, since you’ll be outside during both the walk and lunch.

For photos, be ready for close encounters. You’ll have great chances for selfies with llamas, and the barnyard section is very photogenic too. Keep your camera secure and be mindful around animals, since you’ll be interacting at close range.

Who should book this? Animal lovers, families, and anyone who wants a calm, short outdoor outing without the stress of a long trek. If you’re after a fast, athletic hike, this isn’t that kind of experience.

Should you book Hike & Lunch with Llamas?

Book it if you want a relaxed farm day with real animal contact, a soothing llama walk, and a wood-fired pizza lunch served outdoors. The best part is the balance: you get nature time, animal time, and food that feels like it belongs to the farm.

Consider skipping or postponing if you need a guaranteed indoor plan, since the experience depends on good weather and the lunch setting is outdoors. Also, if your top priority is a long hiking challenge, this is short and gentle by design.

If you’re traveling through New Brunswick and want something that feels local and hands-on, this is a strong pick.
