What you can expect
This 90-minute honey-harvesting and tasting experience is designed for small groups, making it feel personal and interactive, and perfect for curious minds of all ages. Your journey begins with a guided visit to a working apiary, where friendly expert beekeepers introduce you to the fascinating life inside a beehive. Discover how the colony works together, from the important queen to the busy worker bees, and learn how beekeeping changes with the seasons.
Then it’s time to suit up! Everyone is fitted with real beekeeper gear, including a protective veil, before stepping into the hives for a safe, exciting, up-close encounter. Watch the bees in action, listen to their gentle buzz, and experience the sights and scents of the hive in a calm, hands-on way.
After your hive adventure, enjoy a delicious honey tasting featuring a variety of unique flavours shaped by nature. Then relax with morning tea or coffee and freshly baked sourdough, all while taking in peaceful views by the lake. A frame of warm honeycomb is brought to your table, where you’ll break it down and use a traditional press to watch golden honey flow straight into jars for you to take home.
