How to join
Confirm which tours are running on the day of your visit at the Tour Meeting Place or Information Desk inside the Museum.
You can join this tour at the Tour Meeting Place a few minutes before it is scheduled to depart. Our Visitor Services colleagues will provide further instruction for meeting your guide.
Larger groups are provided Assistive Listening Devices (ALD), which amplify the guide’s voice in the garden.
What to expect
Our guides lead unscripted gallery tours that are different each time. While they share their unique perspective and knowledge about the Villa’s gardens, we encourage you to make the tour your own by sharing observations and asking questions. We want to hear what you think!
This tour moves throughout our gardens with a few stops, though seating may or may not be available depending on the route chosen by your guide.
With few exceptions, tours depart rain or shine. Umbrellas are available for free across our campus to protect against the elements.
Accessibility
Wheelchairs are available for free rental on a first-come, first-served basis in the Entry Pavilion.
ALDs are available for all tours at the Tour Meeting Place.
