Fredericksburg
A truly unique experience. Head to Fredericksburg Texas for the top rated tour in town! Hosted at Fredericksburg Game Farm (a true hidden gem in Fredericksburg), you will get a behind the scenes look at the operations and interactions of a working farm and animal sanctuary! A driver will shuttle you via tram as you meet and feed Kangaroos and Alpacas, possibly pet a Camel, feed goats, deer and maybe even a Zebra. These animals are part of the family and many have been rescued. You will also enjoy great wines and scenic views, plus beer and even cocktails at Fredericksburg Game Farm after (or even before) your tour. We are a Winery with a Full Bar! Remember, this is a working ranch deep in the Texas Outback. Dress appropriately (no open toed shoes) and apply caution as you enter the property. Drive slowly on property and stay in your vehicle, Loose livestock roam the property. The tour starts at the Tasting Room of Fredericksburg Game Farm.

Everyone was so nice! Beautiful place! We loved it! They have a variety of animals some you can feed and some not. Be aware the meeting point is not where the tour starts. Bankersmith is where you check in but then drive a little further to the tour.

Me and my husband's trip to Grapetown Vineyards far exceeded our expectations! Not only was the wine and live music fantastic, but the animals were super engaging! Geoffrey, the giraffe, was the superstar we knew he would be, but it was the cows who stole the spotlight when we were on safari! Lastly, the entire staff was beyond amazing! Everyone was so kind and was the perfect example of "southern hospitality!" We cannot wait to come back!

Fredericksburg is hands down the most unfriendly town to tourists. We found the locals to be very rude if your vehicle sported an out of state license plate. Defiantly will never be returning to this area to pump my money into the economy. I recommend to avoid this area altogether. If this is how all Texans act then I want nothing to do with Texas. You can have it!

Wear appropriate attire for farm animal feedings and be prepared for aggressive goats who want all the feed.

Despite the chilly day, our safari guides made the tour fun and educational. The animals are awesome and the wine is great. Kudos to Dusty, our guide, and Rose, our bartender. We will come back and hope for better weather.
