The tour is so much more than just seeing bee hives. Even if you are not a honey fan the interesting information provided by our tour guides Ronnie and Christine is worth the price to help support one of the most important parts of our food chain. Being able to see the bees in action close up and seeing the end result of their hard work was amazing. Even more amazing was tasting the difference between honey from a variety of plants the bees collected the pollen from.
Ronnie and Jasmine were our guides and they did a great job introducing us to the bees and their hives. I had previous experience as a beekeeper but the rest of our group did not and our guides made a point of putting everyone at ease with their explanations of bee behavior and biology. The bees in the hive we opened were exceptionally calm and docile and I believe everyone felt comfortable around them. The honey tasting at the end of the tour was also a great experience and I suspect many in the group had never tasted raw honey straight from the comb! The comparison between the taste and texture of the real honey and the store-bought “honey-like product” was illuminating and likely convinced the whole group to only buy the real thing going forward. All in all this was an experience well worth doing for those with even a modest interest in bees and honey!
6/5 recommend if you have any curiosities about honey or bees! We were able to get really close to the bees, try some fresh honey, and explore part of their farm. Learned so much and tried some of the best honey ever. Also got to take home some.
This is an excellent tour! McKenna and Jess were our tour guides/bee keepers. They are friendly, knowledgeable, and love what they do. We were given bee keeper suits to wear while visiting the apiary. Our guides gave excellent instruction on how to approach the hives and were respectful as to when to open the hive during our visit. It happened to rain during our visit to the apiary, which was an unexpected but an incredible opportunity. After visiting the bees, we had a tasting of fresh honey and honeycomb, and four different honeys. The directions to get to the farm were sent via email and were very helpful, as were the signs as we got close to the location. I highly recommend this tour!
It’s such an informative tour. Ronny and Jessie were very attentive and knowledgeable about bees, hives and honey. Very interesting tour since we love honey.
We loved this! Makenna is so knowledgeable and made us hungry for more knowledge about bees and working an apiary. She is wonderfully fun as well. Jasmine was her assisting guide and also great. We don’t realize we’d be able to hold a frame and then taste honey with the comb directly from that frame. I am quite nervous about bees. They made everyone so comfortable I didn’t want it to end. Thank you for making this available!
Ronnie and Sarah were great! They shared so much information and had answers for ALL the questions our tour group had. They made the tour feel very relaxed and enjoyable. I live on Kauai, but this tour intrigued me. I Highly recommend this tour for Anyone! Trying honey, honeycomb and seeing the bees up close is 100% worth it! 🐝
Well curated, well coordinated tour of the Lydgate Honey Bee Farms. Roni and Jess did a great job explaining everything you'd ever want to know about honey bees and honey. Highly recommended. Thanks Will for creating this experience. And thanks Mel for recommending it.
Great tour! Jess and Jasmine were knowledgeable and friendly. We enjoyed learning about the bees, seeing them upclose, and harvesting the honey. Our only constructive feedback - the size of our group (15) made it very difficult for shorter people to see, as the tallest people always seemed to crowd up front.
Ronnie & Jess are absolutely amazing and extremely knowledgeable about everything bees and honey. It's obvious they share a love for the bees and the island. We came away with a greater appreciation for bees. We got up close and personal with a hive, but not to worry as you are in a bee keeper's suit with the attached bonnet and gloves. There is nothing else like this experience on Kauai.
