Geert was an excellent experience host, he was welcoming and very kind and engaging. The tour was incredibly informative, and his messages relevant. You can tell how passionate he is about natural beekeeping and ethically stewarding them. He was able to diligently incorporate information for kids and adults in my group. It’s on the long side, but not in a dull way. He just has a lot of information to impart and we stayed very interested throughout the tour.

Geert was so warm, enthusiastic and caring towards his family of bees. We learned so much and wish we could’ve stayed longer!

A great experience. Greet is excellent at teaching and explaining things. He has a lot of knowledge about bees from different perspectives around the world. My daughter and I learned a lot about the lives of bees, and the social and environmental dynamics surrounding bees. We were able to hold the honeycombs of bees. We were also able to taste fresh honey and other byproducts of bees. If you have a chance to book it, do it. The experience and information alone is worth the money, and it also helps sustain the bee project.
