On a gorgeous hot day in the lovely City is was a great time to walk around the gardens whilst grabbing some shade. Its pretty spacious but there are trails to choose from. Its well kept and no litter

Lovely way to pass a couple of lazy hours. The roses were out in bloom and there were a couple of conservatories with tropical and rainforest plants. All the amenities (shops and cafes) were closed as we visited on Christmas Day. If these were open, we would have spent longer.

First of all thanks to Lyn one of the volunteers for a wonderful and knowledgeable 90 minute tour of the gardens. We had visited a couple of days before to see the corpse plant but returned to see the rest of the gardens. Fantastic. Rare species and found out things we would not have known but for Lyn's guided walk. Yet another venue in Adelaide with free entry. So used to paying in the UK.

We joined the 10:30am Daily Tour and our guide brought these beautiful gardens to life. There is so much to see even if you are not a garden enthusiast. The Santos Museum of Economic Botany inside the park is quite extraordinary and quick to visit. Worth a visit and is a beautiful stroll

I just love visiting gardens when in different cities and this one didn’t disappoint. Its walking distance from the city. Can walk along the river past the zoo to that entrance. Just beautiful pockets of gardens, flowers, birds and trees. Got a bit lost walking around and probably didn’t see it all but what I did was beautiful and well maintained. Take your shoes off and ground yourself on the beautiful grass.

Great activity for a day out in Adelaide. We spent just over 2 hours in the gardens and could have spent more time if we hadn’t been on our feet all day already. Take a picnic and enjoy one of the large grassy areas. Or stroll the many paths through the wide variety of plantings. There are specialty gardens, a restaurant and green houses to explore too.

I wandered around the for a couple of hours gardens after visiting the zoo. Plenty of shade trees, benches, water stations and so on. My visit coincided with a 36 degree Celsius day so stopped for an ice cream. I suggest going on a cooler day though there is plenty of shade. easy to find way around and caught the free tram from just outside the main gate back along north terrace.

Recently visited after a really long time. Interesting I can't remember much having changed although I'm sure the gardens are older! Still well maintained and a really cheap option if something to do in the city!

We hadn't intended to visit, but it was on our way back into the city from visiting the National Wine Centre. What a lovely walk it was, mid morning, dew still on the grass in spots. the palm house, the water lilies, the lotus flowers, and just the lovely walks. On a warm day you could take your lunch and just lie in the shade on the grass.

Caught the free tram up North Tce to one of the entry gates and enjoyed a few hours in the beautiful gardens. Lucky to see their rare water lily out and saw lotus flowers and so many gorgeous roses in flower. Well worth the visit.
