Hold your breath around them and wear white -- they're attracted to carbon dioxide and dark colors. They also dissipate around smoke.

Honey bees will only "attack you " if you physically disturb the hive.Honey bees die when they sting unlike hornets, wasps, yellow jackets,etc. so they save it for emergencies. Honey bees are in trouble anyway because they are dying off from a mysterious ailment.. That means we are in trouble because they are the only way food crops are pollinated (fruits, etc). Without honeybees, not much food.
So the best bet is just leave them alone and they will do the same. All other stinging insects, RUN.(And Ortho Wasp& Hornet spray kicks butt..)

You could try wearing red. According to studies, honey bees can't see red. They aren't attracted to red flowers. Don't know for sure though. Tell me if it works.

Outrun 'em, of course.
Okay, not really. Usually I just try to ignore them and not swat at them or run from them. If they land on me though....
