    Always wanted to explore our outdoor gardens but didn't know where to start?  Come and join our guided walking tour with our staff and discover some of the fascinating plants around our outdoor gardens through the senses of sight, touch, taste, and smell!

    Each one-hour walking tour will focus on a different sense. You'll learn how our human senses work, discover that plants have similar senses, and learn why those senses are vital for both plants and people! We'll also visit plants around the outdoor gardens and discover more about their different patterns, colours, forms, smells, textures and tastes.

    Pick a session that interests you or come for all of our four tours!
