What you can expect

This experience begins in a tropical garden just 20 minutes from La Fortuna Town, home to more than 45 stingless bee hives. Surrounded by lush vegetation, you’ll discover a vibrant ecosystem filled with colorful flowers, hummingbirds, butterflies, birds, and other fascinating pollinators.

Get an up-close look at Costa Rica’s native stingless bees as we explore the meliponarium and discover the remarkable world of these gentle and essential insects. Learn about their role in tropical ecosystems, their fascinating evolutionary history, and how they produce their unique honey.

Along the way, enjoy a tasting of Costa Rica’s distinctive tropical honeys, including exotic monofloral and multifloral varieties, each reflecting the flowers and landscapes where they are produced.

This is more than a bee tour—it’s an immersive experience that connects you with Costa Rica’s biodiversity and gives you a closer look at the small creatures that help keep tropical ecosystems thriving.
