Bees are one of the marvels of nature & have been studied, observed & mythologised since Egyptian times. 

In this unique experience, you'll join a passionate beekeeper amongst his hives, suited up & surrounded by bees. We start the experience with a honey tasting of up to ten different honeys. The taste, texture, viscosity, colour & aromas are linked directly to the floral sources available to the bees who make this liquid gold from the bush & gardens around Hamish's apiary. Over morning tea you'll hear about the fascinating lifecycle of this remarkable pollinator & the important part bees play in our food cycle before then suiting up in a professional full-length beekeepers suit (+ gloves!) & moving to the hives. 

You'll be shown through the different styles of hive, including the Flow Hive, & be guided through the process of an inspection, checking the laying pattern of the queen, & checking for honey, and health. If we’re lucky we’ll find "Liz", the queen of the colony!
