Din introduktion till denna fascinerande värld börjar på Rhodos bimuseum, med engagerande interaktiva utställningar. Lär dig om vikten av biodling när din National Geographic-utbildade guide förklarar historien om att upprätthålla kolonier av bin och deras bikupor på de södra Egeiska öarna.
Se det livliga bikupelivet genom genomskinliga observationskupor och upptäck spännande fakta om pollinering och apitherapi - den medicinska användningen av biprodukter. Du kommer också att lära dig olika enkla sätt att skydda dessa varelser som är så viktiga för vår planets ekosystem.
National Geographic-resenärerna får sedan njuta av en exklusiv live-demonstration av honungsutvinning av en av Bee Museums personal i ett privat rum. Lär dig om professionella tekniker som att skrapa bikakorna och använda verktyg som manuella slungor för att fylla tomma burkar. Efteråt kan du provsmaka den nyutvunna honungen i ett särskilt utrymme som är exklusivt tillgängligt för National Geographic-grupper. Prova också andra typer av honung, bland annat sorter som tall, timjan och erica. Prova också den berömda Melekouni, ett traditionellt sött mellanmål från Rhodos.
Efter provsmakningen kan du ta på dig en skyddsdräkt och ta en titt på en aktiv bigård och undersöka den öppna kupan tillsammans med en erfaren biodlare. Omgiven av glatt surrande får du lära dig mer om viktiga verktyg som ramar, rökare och skrapor, och du får en praktisk förståelse för hur bisamhällen är organiserade.
Du kommer att få en ny förståelse för det enkla honungsbiet och vad du kan göra för att skydda det.

Lindos Acropolis & Rhodes Old Town Highlights Tour
Few islands in Greece can match the heritage of Rhodes. And this wealth forms the centrepiece of this tour. Discover it all with an expert local guide. Dimitris, one of our guides, says, ‘Lindos was built in the 10th century BC by the Dorians. It's the third-most visited site in all of Greece, which shows just how significant it is.'

Headsets allow direct connection between you and your guide.Dimitris believes Rhodes is blessed with some of the best scenery in Greece. He says, ‘Lindos lies near a fantastic sandy beach, surrounded by hills hiding the village, protecting the place from the attacks of the pirates. On top of the small sugar cube houses stands the ancient Acropolis and the Temple of Athena.' You'll get to appreciate these very views during a coffee stop at a typical family-run café. Climb to the mountaintop Acropolis as your guide brings to life the myths and legends of the ancients as you take in views of St Paul's Bay below.Rounding off the day, we'll head to the old town Rhodes – a UNESCO World Heritage Site – for a guided tour.

Pirates of Rhodes Family-friendly Themed Cruise
Pirate Tim and Calypso the Parrot need your help to find their lost treasure. But first you need to be fully trained in all the skills you need to become a pirate. Eleni, one of our local crew members, says, 'Rhodes was once a hugely important trading post in the Mediterranean region, and pirates were a real threat to this success. The island's governors directed the Rhodes Navy to spend all their time policing the waters nearby in order to protect the ships carrying valuable goods such as salt and olive oil.'

There'll be lots of fun activities for everyone to get involved with.

And no pirate adventure would be complete without a treasure map and clues to follow.Eleni says, 'Set sail with the pirates for a fun cruise with plenty to keep the kids occupied while the grown-ups can relax and admire the scenery. We'll stop at some lovely spots so all the pirates can cool off with a swim in the sea.' Fruit is included, plus there's a bar on board where you can buy drinks and snacks, in case all the excitement makes you hungry. This pirate cruise is all about swashbuckling fun for the whole family to enjoy.
