Round off summer with unique experiences and activities at Guatazales, Bullas
Explore the fascinating world of beekeeping, sample incredible wines, olive oil and honey or immerse yourself in nature
Summer may be drawing to a close, but at
Guatazales in
Bullas there is still so much to discover. Known for its regenerative organic farming and its much-loved bees, this magical spot offers experiences that go far beyond your average guided tour.
Whether you want to taste the finest local products, learn something new or simply lose yourself in the beauty of the Murcian countryside, Guatazales is the perfect place to do it.
Guatazales is nestled along the River Mula, which the Arabs once called Wadi Easal, meaning the Honey River. More than a thousand years ago, travellers here were astonished to see honey running down the river walls.
It was no dream but the work of bees, whose honeycombs melted in the summer heat, releasing golden streams. Today, Guatazales honours that history with a celebration of honey, wine, oil and the rich land that produces them.
Experiences for every kind of traveller
One of the highlights at Guatazales is the
Bee Friendly Beekeeping Workshop. Visitors are invited to put on a suit, step into the apiary and see the bees at work while learning about their fascinating behaviour.
Afterwards, there is a chance to visit the honey workshop and, of course, taste some of the organic honey made by their happy bees.
Those looking for a little more adventure can explore the hidden corners of the Honey River on horseback, uncovering stories, mysteries and breathtaking views along the way.
Wine lovers are also in for a treat. Guatazales can arrange
visits to local wineries where you can taste the best vintages of the region. There are also
tasting experiences that pair wine with artisan sourdough bread, extra virgin olive oil, regional cheeses, local cured meats and baked goods. Naturally, their own honey makes an appearance too.
Stay surrounded by nature
If a day is not enough, you can extend your visit with a stay at
Agrolavia, a rural house just outside Bullas. Tucked away in the Sierra de Burete, Cambrón and Lavia, the setting is truly special. The area is a protected zone for birds, making it a paradise for bird watching and ecotourism.
The stunning rural getaway can cater to up to 16 guests at a time and has its own saltwater swimming pool.
Guests can harvest seasonal fruits and vegetables from the organic garden, walk through tunnels of fruit trees and sample homemade products including oils, honeys and traditional goods straight from the farm.
Take Guatazales home with you
No visit is complete without bringing a little taste of Bullas home. The Guatazales online shop offers their organic honey, Clarea sweet wine and award-winning olive oil so you can relive the experience long after your trip.
For more information, experiences and bookings, you can reach Guatazales directly or explore their
website and
online store.
A day spent here promises to be unforgettable, filled with nature, flavour and the kind of stories you will want to share.
