We drive through the little settlement of Pini belonging to the village of Volada. We visit the beekeeping garden in the nearby forest surroundings of Lastos.

This is a true hands on experience for you to see the life of a beekeeper. You will be suited up in a beekeeping outfit and then head out to the hives to learn and see what happens inside the hive.

We will share with you the workings of an operational productive hive, see the smoking process, open their home and check out the busy bees doing their thing. We will look out for the Queen Bee and the different stages of development.

You will get a great insight as to what they do with Honey, Pollen and Propolis within the hive, hold a frame of bees and touch the honeycomb. This is an excellent photo opportunity! 

Once we conclude the tour we will head to the beekeepers base where you will taste some of the best honey in the world.

This is a fun, educational and unique experience where you will learn about these magnificent creatures!

It is a Family friendly experience and children are welcome as long as they are 110 cm tall and 5 years old and have a paying adult with them. This experience is not suitable for individuals who have high allergic reactions to bees, although the risk is very low. 

*Please note that sometime in August the tours will stop for 2 weeks due to the collecting of honey.
