This is a fun activity in Stepney, London

Ever wondered what was involved with keeping bees or wanted to find out more about these fascinating creatures? Then join your host Meetal and the rest of the Pearly Queen Honey Company for this exciting London beekeeping experience!

This experience will give you the unique opportunity to meet the bees in their East End apiary and learn about how they live, communicate and how important they are to us all. You will not only learn about how fascinating our flying friends' lives really are but also gain an insight into the role beekeepers play and get an understanding of what exactly they do.

Once you're settled in, it'll be your turn to don a beekeeping suit and come face to face with our furry flying friends. You'll have a good look inside the hive, learn a bit more about how it works and see the bees in action. At the end of the session, you'll also enjoy a taste test of the honey these busy bees have been making, making sure you leave this unique London experience with a sweet taste in your mouth!

We really enjoyed our two hour beekeeping experience at the farm. We learnt so much about honey bees, tasted honeys, asked questions and had a brilliant time seeing the peaceful bees in the hive up close. Thanks for a great morning.

I was gifted this beekeeping experience by my daughter and what a wonderful gift it was! It started with a very informative talk about how the beehive actually works and the roles of each bee. There was then plenty of time to don the suits, open the hive and hold the honeycombs covered with busy bees and learn still more. There was always time for questions too. After this there was still time to taste different honeys from several areas of London which was great and then the opportunity to buy some. I highly recommend this experience to everyone! Thank you so much Pearly Queen!

Really informative, very eye-opening. Bought this experience for my friend and I on a whim one weekend and I cannot recommend this highly enough. Good mix of sit-down, educational content and hands-on experiences of the hive. Meetal was very accommodating and patient with all of us while still being firm with how to best treat and approach the bees. You can tell that he really cares. Thank you so much for having us!

Meetal was ace, it is so clear how passionate he is about beekeeping. His talk on bees was really informative and meeting the bees was great. Meetal explained the way the hives work and what the bees were doing and were able to see it all up close with beekeeping suits(provided) on. Tasting the honey at the end of the session was a lively touch and really rounded off the experience!
