点评:Wow, what an amazing experience! We spotted the place on the way to Elafonisi beach and decided to come back later - and how brilliant was that decision!
We booked a 1-hour tour, but our wonderful guide Helena (I hope I remembered the name correctly!) was so dedicated to answering all our questions that we ended up spending almost 1.5 hours. We thought we were aware of the meticulous organisation of the honey bee society, but we learned so many new fascinating facts, from anatomy to behavioural "programmes" to the hierarchy to the various products and by-products to the harvesting technology, that it was like a whole new subject. Helena was very enthusiastic and thorough, we really enjoyed the presentation.
In the end we were treated to three different locally produced honey varieties, as well as bee's wax based cream. There is also a shop where we happily bought a few of the products.
Highly recommended detour on your travels around Chania and Elafonisi.
翻译:哇,真是一次奇妙的体验!我们在去埃拉福尼西海滩的路上发现了这个地方,于是决定晚点再来——这个决定真是太明智了!
我们预订了1小时的行程,但我们出色的导游海伦娜(希望我没记错她的名字!)非常认真地解答了我们所有的问题,结果我们花了将近1.5个小时才参观完。我们自以为了解了蜜蜂社会的严谨组织,却发现这里竟然有如此多令人着迷的新知识,从解剖结构到行为“程序”,从等级制度到各种产品和副产品,再到采蜜技术,这简直就像一个全新的主题。海伦娜非常热情周到,讲解也非常细致,我们非常喜欢她的讲解。
最后,我们品尝了三种当地产的蜂蜜,以及蜂蜡霜。我们还在一家商店里买了一些产品,非常开心。
强烈推荐您在哈尼亚和埃拉福尼西岛旅行时绕道而行。
