Meet the beekeeper
Meet my dad, the beekeeper behind Yan Apiary.
He keeps bees and makes honey in Gyumri, Armenia. He loves explaining how he cares for his colonies, how bees work together, and how honey reaches the jar.
As his daughter — and a lifelong honey enthusiast — I built this space to help him share that world with more people.

Good to know
Before you set off.
Where we are
Yan Apiary is in Gyumri, Armenia. Final visit directions will be shared when real visits and schedules are confirmed.
What to wear
Closed shoes, long trousers and a long-sleeved top in light colours. Protective veils and jackets are provided at the apiary.
If the weather turns
Hives are opened outdoors, so a session may be moved for rain, wind or cold. If that happens the owner contacts you and your booking link shows the sessions you can move to.
Safety around bees
Visits are calm and guided, and protective equipment is provided. Being near bees still carries a risk of stings. If anyone in your group has concerns about taking part safely, contact the owner before booking.
