What you can expect

Begin with an interactive workshop where you’ll learn about the ingredients used to make melekouni, a traditional Rhodian sweet made with honey and sesame. See, smell, and learn about each ingredient before watching the preparation process and tasting fresh melekouni.

Next, enjoy a guided tour of the Bee Museum, exploring the history of beekeeping through exhibits of traditional and modern hives, beekeeping tools, and bee products. Learn how beekeeping has evolved and the important role bees play in nature and daily life.

One of the most impressive highlights is the live observation hives, where you can see a real bee colony in action and observe their social structure.

Finish your experience with a 10-minute video about the life cycle of bees and their products, as well as a honey tasting with different aromas and flavors. Before you leave, receive a 40g jar of local honey as a sweet souvenir of your visit.
