Description

Discover bees with our beekeeper.
He'll explain the incredible life of these insects so important to our diet, and you'll have the chance to discover with him the treasures of the beehive: propolis, pollen and honey will no longer hold any secrets for you. The program includes honey tasting, observation of beeswax and different types of bees, and familiarization with the principle of pollination, all of which will give you a better understanding of the world of beekeeping and enable you to take action at home to protect bees. After a theoretical introduction, you can put on a beekeeper's suit and observe bees in their hive, where you can see the queen bee, the workers and the drones: a guaranteed thrill!
