Full description

The world of bees as you have never seen it... and heard it, and smelled it, and tasted it!

Take part in our beekeeping experience in Borgo d'Ale: in the company of a beekeeper-guide, you will observe the life of a beehive from inside a cosy little wooden house that will host you during the amazing"apiaroma" and"apisound" sessions.

A3-hour experience, enhanced by a visit to the laboratory and tasting of organic honey!

What we will do

The appointment is at the selected time at the meeting point in Borgo d'Ale (VC). We will be welcomed by our bee-guide, who will accompany us on a discovery of the world of bees.

Once all the participants have gathered, the experience will begin with anintroduction to the reality and personal history of the bee-guide, who will be ready to pass on all his knowledge and passion. We will then reach theeducational beehive, a construction specially made forobserving the inside of the hive in safety; and we will even be able to touch some of its pieces!

We will then enter a small wooden house, from inside which we will watch the beekeeper-guide open the hives and show us the life inside them; we will observe everything from behind glass, for a carefree "bee experience". We will then remain inside the wooden house for the"apiaroma" and"apisound" session: we will discover the benefit of breathing in the scents and listening to the sounds of the beehive, located outside the structure. Relaxation (and falling asleep for the little ones) is guaranteed! This moment will last about 30 minutes.

And after recharging our batteries, we will be ready to visit the honey extraction workshop and learn more about the honey extraction process. This will be followed by the inevitable tasting of organic honey, a true sensory analysis based on consistency and flavour. The property produces acacia, millefiori, chestnut, linden and alpine flora honey according to seasonality and all characterised by the high quality of the raw material.

The experience will last a total of 3 hours.
