We had so much fun on this tour! It was part stand up comedy as well as super interesting. We could see the hard working bees making honey up close, but safely from behind a screen. Sampling the different flavors was a treat, and we got lots of great gifts to take home. Just remember the tsa limit of 3 -3oz containers of liquids for carryon. We checked our bags so we could get more. Highly recommend the tour!

Educational and fun tour that both my 8-year-old daughter and I both enjoyed. Close to Place of Refuge. Easy to do both in a day.

We learned a lot from the guide who is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about bees. Visitors are safely behind a screen. The only thing is that I felt that he kept repeating himself as if he was stretching it out to have the visit hit the assigned time frame. Having a bit more about the practical part of the challenges of this important field would have enhanced the tour.

Very interesting to learn about bees and honey production at Hawaii. The video explained key info and about the company. The live demonstration was fabulous, as was the honey tasting and his descriptions of each honey we sampled. Definitely recommend if you're interested in knowing more about bees! It's geared more towards adults. Kids would probably be interested in the demo portion though when you get to see the hives and the bees! Plenty of parking on property.

The tour guide, Joe, was hands down the best we’ve ever had and we’ve taken many tours! He was so informative and made it fun. He was a crack-up. Give the man a bonus please. We learned so much about bees in general and also about beekeeping. We live in Utah which is the “beehive state” so it was all very relevant for us.

Sri Lanka Drive My Trip - The Perfect Experience I can't praise Nisal enough for the incredible 10-day adventure in Sri Lanka. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and genuine passion for showcasing the country's beauty made every moment memorable. From historical wonders to hidden gems, his guidance was invaluable. Thanks to our guide, it became a journey of a lifetime. I highly recommend Nisal for an enriching and delightful travel experience. Last day of our tour we was end up in kandy for shopping some ceylon tea, and some local organic spices it was asome, good price for value, and same time our driver Nisal he was invited to dinner at his home, nisal wife made for us classic srilankan rice and curry really delicious, it was a wonderful evening with a lovely family. Thank you green lanka tour, future visitets this is the best driver you can trust 100%,

We had a wonderful experience. The guide was very knowledgeable. He was able to teach us about bees , and then show us the hives . He took apart the bee hive to show us new bees being “ born “ , the queen bee , and so much more . It really was fascinating! It was all done with the protection of a screen between us and the hives , so I felt completely safe . We then learned how they are able to get the different flavors of the honey and the laborious process of moving the hives to different parts of the island depending on what is blossoming at the time . We finished by tasting the honey . It was a great experience. There were kids in the tour and they had a great time as well !

Joe and the whole staff were wonderful. We arrived late but called to let them know. They were able to still make sure we had a great experience. We learned so much and were so thankful we made the out of the way trip to this property. LOVED their honey and took some home for us and for gifts. Joe's experience with the bees was fun, light but really informative. We appreciated his "teacher" style by trying to engage the participants with a give and take approach. This was a change from other tours and we are so grateful we decided to go on our last day on this island.

Great Tour. Informative and friendly staff. Great tour if you are curious about honey production and Bees. Give yourself plenty of travel time and expect a scenic drive to get there.

Joe is a fountain of beekeeping knowledge and has an encyclopedic knowledge of beekeeping behavior. He was able to answer all of our questions, thorough And he was a pleasure to hear. How are a group of six learned more about bees and we ever thought possible.

I loved the tour guide and how he kept it exciting and relatable with a lot of jokes. I was shown the queen been which I would never have known what she looked like. The tastings were amazing. Very informative

The bee tour was one of my favorite outings while on the Big Island. Bee Keeper Joe was fabulous and should really have his own YouTube channel. He was passionate, knowledgeable, and incredibly funny. My small kids (who were terrified of bees before the tour) loved it and so did the adults. The honey flavored treats and honey samples are delicious. A great low-key outing to take a break from the beach and a great value.

For the most part I enjoyed the tour. It was very informative as Joe made sure we learned a lot about honeybees. I liked Joe and he has a lot of personality. I also liked getting to sample the different types of honey. My one criticism is that I felt like the ranting about misinformation and how people get misled into thinking honeybees are endangered was a little bit over the top. Like, it is absolutely really good information and I'm glad Joe was able to dispel some myths and talk to people about thinking critically and not believing everything you hear about bees. But... It just kept going on and on and repeating the same points multiple times.
