Interesting, educational and fun! - Very nice introduction to the world of bees. It's not touristy, but maybe that's why it's fun. You could look into a beehive and the Owner gave a short demonstration. They are also allowed to scrape honey from a comb themselves and finally taste 10 different types of honey.

To do without hesitation! - Thank you Nadia and Bruno for this wonderful time spent in your honey house. Very informative and interesting, we are immediately immersed in the fascinating world of bees and after a tasting which tests the sensitivity of our taste buds, we can leave with the delicious jars of honey that we preferred. We feasted!
