The programme

For centuries, the people of Ibiza have relied on the use of herbs for medicines. In this natural and sustainable approach, bees have played a crucial role in pollinating the plants, contributing to the conservation of the island's ecosystems. By partnering with bees in this way, the locals have nurtured a harmonious relationship between nature and human culture.
On this tour, you will meet a herbalist who will guide you on a walk through the woods and teach you about the different herbs growing on Ibiza, and how they are used in daily life. You can pick, smell, and sample a variety of these.
After the walk, enjoy a visit to an organic farm, opened exclusively for National Geographic travelers. Meet the farm’s owner and beekeeper, and experience first-hand the life and behavior of the honeybees. You will see the beehives and discover the importance of these fascinating insects in our ecosystem, including why and how we should protect them.
Then, you will have the chance to sample a selection of honeys – each produced in different seasons. Accompanying the honey will be an array of local cheeses, almonds, and honey liqueur – all local produce from the island.
