Overview

"Travelers are buzzing about apitourism--or ""bee tourism""--as an opportunity to get close to bees and learn about the ecology and industry they support. Apitours invite visitors to see what takes place inside a hive, taste fresh honey and observe its journey from comb to bottle. Apitourists explore ""bee culture"" through diverse activities--watching films, creating art, building ""bee hotels,"" sampling mead, learning to plant pollinator gardens and documenting species in the wild. This guide presents an educational overview of apitourism, with an exploration of the fascinating world of bees and the sometimes controversial issues surrounding them."
