About

Did you know that honey bees communicate with each other through dancing? Our farmer is full of fascinating facts to immerse you in the captivating world of this impressive insect.

We are Miguel and Sónia, we are the guardians of this special farm! We've been together for about 16 years and we've always had this common dream of living on a farm simply and surrounded by animals.

What you will do: after introductions, you will learn about how bees live, work and make honey. This a hands-on experience where you will put on a bee suit and have an up close look at the hives. You ́ll hold a frame of bees and identify workers and drones and try to find the Queen bee. You'll discover the true importance of the bees for the planet, and then taste different types of honey paired with homemade snacks.

Where you will be: your adventure starts at the farm courtyard, followed by the apiary visit, and then returning to the courtyard to taste some honey..
