Imagine being a beekeeper, hearing the buzz of the bees and you open the hive and watch them bring in the pollen and nectar. In this interactive, educational experience, you get to be the beekeeper.


With an experienced beekeeper, you'll interact with active hives, learn about bee behaviour and get your photo taken holding a frame of live bees. Get an insight into the life of the bees, the extraction of honey and other bee products.
You'll begin the tour by suiting up in a 3-layer vented beesuit and gloves, then head out to the hives. The beekeeper will show you how to open a hive, and explain when and why we use a smoker. Take a frame out the hive and get an insight into the life of the bees, the extraction of honey and other bee products.
Finish with a tour of the extraction facility and tasting of our rare honey.
Closed footwear is essential. Please note that all beekeeping experiences are weather dependent so please leave your phone number so that we can contact you if your experience needs to be postponed or cancelled.
