About the Mini-Safaris:
This summer, children and teenagers in Amsterdam-Noord are going on an adventure at De Ceuvel! In a fun and accessible way, they’ll discover just how much life is hiding in their own neighborhood.
During these Mini-Safaris (8 in total), they’ll explore the Ceuvel grounds together with a guide. You’ll search for everything that lives, crawls, flies, or grows between the pavement, piers, and plants — from snails and bees to water creatures, birds, and wild herbs.
Afterwards, you’re guaranteed to see the nature around you with fresh eyes.
About this safari: BeesJoin the bee safari and discover the hidden world of our buzzing heroes! De Ceuvel is the perfect place for this: a green oasis in the middle of the city, full of flowers, a bee hotel, a beehive, and a brand-new bee fortress. During this adventure, you’ll learn how wild bees live, why they are essential for nature, and what you can do to help them. We’ll also get hands-on right away and end the bee safari by making seed bombs together.
About the guide: Vita from The Pollinators
Vita works at The Pollinators and knows everything about bees. The Pollinators help protect pollinating insects by encouraging everyone — from citizens to companies and farmers — to work together to restore biodiversity. The Pollinators’ office is located at De Ceuvel.
