Details & Important Info

Additional Experience Details & Important Information

What's included

  • Protective gear
  • Select beverages

Things to know:

  • Ensure you arrive a few minutes before your start time to sign waivers and get signed in. Particularly for evening tours, it is important that we start promptly on time so that we finish the tour before sunset.
  • Tours are weather dependent, so if the forecast calls for rain or temperatures below 65 degrees, please watch your email 24-48 hours before in case we need to cancel/reschedule.
  • Gratuity is not included in the price, and is always welcomed by your guide. 

What to bring:

We will have an assortment of protective gear for all of you. You will see that the bees are incredibly gentle and docile, but better for everyone to enjoy their time and not feel worried about getting stung! Additionally, please adhere to the the following guidelines:

  • Closed-toe shoes are REQUIRED. We also strongly recommend shoes that cover the ankle, if you have them, or socks that cover the ankle if you don't.
  • Wear long pants. Khakis, cargos, or blue jeans are fine.
  • Choose clothing that is loose fitting -- nothing especially tight! (Black yoga pants are NOT a good attire choice.)
    -While long-sleeved tops are not required, you may want to bring a button down or other long-sleeved shirt for sun protection. Try to stick to lighter colors on top - button downs work great!
  • Refrain from materials that are 'fuzzy' or made from sweater-type materials.
  • Please refrain from any perfumes or heavily scented lotions -- the bees are not fans of our smells.
