Garden Tours
Explore the Gardens.
Highlights Tours
Join us for this hour-long tour through our central gardens. Start by the Kitchen Garden Café and walk through the gardens that surround the Great Lawn. Learn the origin stories of each surrounding garden and about the people who made them possible; hear highlights of the Gardens’ history, and discover more about garden design and botanical elements.
Accessible Cart Tours
Our one-hour Accessible Cart Tours are led by trained Gardens’ docents, rain or shine, on our quiet electric cart. The cart can accommodate up to five (5) passengers. These tours are a wonderful opportunity for those who may not otherwise be able to walk the Gardens. The tour is $10 per person (in addition to admission), except on Wednesdays when the accessible cart tours are free.
Specialty Tours
Explore the Gardens more deeply through other seasonal tours, such as with our Native Plant Tour, Become a Guardian: Trees of the Trolls Tour, or Wetlands Tour, all led by Gardens staff and experienced docents. These tours are offered throughout the season and provide a special in-depth look at Gardens’ topics and different areas of our grounds. Specialty tours are listed on the Calendar below—click through on their titles for more information.
