What you can expect

Join us on a unique 6-hour journey from Merida to Motul, where you'll delve into the captivating universe of Melipona bees. Begin your day with a delicious regional breakfast of Motuleños Eggs at the 20 de Noviembre market, prepared by Doña Evelia, a local culinary expert.

Transfer from Motul to the Apiary:
Following breakfast, embark on a short transfer to an apiary, a natural space hailed as one of the best living museums of honey. Here, you'll step into the shoes of a beekeeper for a day, gaining insights into the history of bees and the vital role played by the Melipona bee in Yucatán and Mexico.

Interactive Tour at the Apiary:
Engage in a hands-on experience with bees that do not have stingers, participate in a candle workshop using natural wax, and savour a tasting session of hive products such as propolis and royal jam. Immerse yourself in the diverse flavours of honey produced by these endemic Yucatán bees. If you're inclined, learn the art of crafting candles using wax derived from beehives. The apiary store offers a range of bee-related products for purchase.

Return to Merida:
As the experience concludes, enjoy free time to explore and buy products from the apiary store. Then, we'll begin our trip back to Merida, marking the end of this immersive journey into the world of Melipona bees.
