    Beautiful Gardens
    Well worth the admission price. Beautiful gardens, friendly staff, clean facilities and a lovely cafe for lunch. There special exhibits are always great. Parking was ample and close to the entrance. We spent 2 hours but you could spend more.

    Beautiful experience!
    The Naples Botanical Garden was just beautiful. The design of the themed gardens was a wonderful way to explore a series of environments. Water was present throughout the gardens and provided so many photographic opportunities. The orchids were varied and beautiful. The musical swings were so fun! The gift shop was well stocked and contained a beautiful variety of tasteful items. Parking was easy. The whole visit was a wonderful experience that we are sure to repeat the next time we are in Naples. We definitely recommend the Gardens.

    Naples Botanical Gardens… not to be missed when in Naples!!
    Spectacular gardens! They have rebounded beautifully after significant hurricane damage to the canopy trees. It’s wonderful to see the gardens looking lush and healthy! There are curated tours at certain times of the day… we chose to leisurely self tour. There are lights for evening walks as well . Easy walking trails … wheel chair accessible too! A great learning experience for the entire family.

    The perfect place for peaceful day
    We’ve had such wonderful weather recently, it’s perfect for spending the day taking in the beauty of the Naples Botanical Gardens. Whether you live in SWFL or you’re planning to visit, you must plan a day here! Their daily tours are a perfect way to get to know the Gardens if you’ve never been. They are 45 minutes long and leave on the hour. 🌸 Or just set off on your own and take your time in each area. Our favorites are the LaGrippe Orchid & Lea Asian Gardens, but really, there is beauty everywhere you look. 🌺 Keep a look out for the Cousin It Palm, that was a favorite of ours too 😁 Catch the Musical Swings before they leave on April 20th! You will instantly remember how much fun it is to be on a swing! ❗️Don’t worry about planning your visit around lunch, they have a great restaurant there! Fogg Café is open all day and has fabulous food! And you can always stop in again to get little gelato before you head home. 🍨

    Beautiful Gardens
    These gardens are beautiful and full of so many interesting plants and trees. I liked the fact that you could go on a guided walk or take a self guided tour. There are signs throughout the gardens that link to audio recordings giving you additional information about what you are seeing. We went on a Wednesday afternoon and while there were people in the gardens it was not overcrowded and was very peaceful. The gardens are each unique and it was fun to compare the differences. So many types of palms! We also ate in the cafe - the service was on the slow side but the food was good for the price. Definitely would come back to spend some more time.

    Relax and enjoy the view
    I come here all the time, it does change around and they hold beautiful orchid show and more. This place has a very nice restaurant on the premises and hold tours. I did purchase a year round pass, because I believe they have much to offer throughout the year. You can take beautiful walks throughout the gardens and long walks around the ponds. members also get to enter an hour earlier.

    Beat my ecpectations
    This place was better than expected. We had been to a few botanical gardens, but none were as nice as the one in Naples. The grounds are gorgeous and well maintained, very clean and so much to see. It took us a couple hours to get through the gardens, but we could have taken much longer. There are nice paths and walkways throughout, the signage is good. I would recommend checking out the Naples Botanical Garden if you like this type of thing.

    An afternoon at the garden
    This garden is easily accessible to anyone. It is compact and easy to get around. It consists of small themed gardens that interconnect with one another. There is a nice cafe offering both indoor and outdoor dining.

    Lovely day to spend with friends
    I l love the botanical Gardens. We always try and visit it when we’re here but obviously haven’t visited it since the last hurricane. You can clearly see the damage at the hurricane has done to the plants and trees however that didn’t spoil what is a fantastic place in Naples. There’s still plenty to see, and it’s still brings a smile to your face when you see the new growth that’s coming through definitely worth a visit .

    Gorgeous
    Naples Botanical Garden is a gem! There are countless varieties of flowers, shrubs, and trees set in exquisite and diverse gardens spread across acres and acres. The orchid garden is especially stunning. The facilities are top-notch including a lovely gift shop and wonderful walk up cafe. Every staff member we have encountered on multiple visits has been warm, enthusiastic and knowledgeable.

This is a large area divided into many interesting and varied gardens. At present there is a Frida Kharlo exhibition with a reconstruction of her Casa Azul with plants and flowers that she would have known. There is a lovely orchid garden. This is family friendly, offering a free kids pack. Garden yours are available. There is a good restaurant. It is pricey at $25 for adults, children under 3 are free, but you can spend all day there. Plenty of parking.

The Garden is a Naples gem! A must see! It's a serene place to take a walk, sit and relax and learn. Staff and volunteers are incredibly friendly and helpful. We love taking friends and family as no one is ever disappointed. The Fogg Cafe has delicious food and the Berger Garden Shop has some unique gifts for someone special, including yourself.

This is a beautiful botanical gardens, not far out of the main area of Naples.
The grounds are very well kept, so many different plants and areas of the gardens. A lovely pond with a trail around. Lots of opportunities to walk on trails.
The variety of species was great.

There wasn’t a ton of info around the gardens about the different plants but there seemed to be many volunteers around who looked more than willing to chat if needed.

We spent about 3 hours there, ending our visit with a cold drink from the cafe, sitting by one of the beautiful ponds and then a quick tour in their garden shop which had lots of cute things to browse if people are into that sort of thing!

Definitely recommend and ignore any negative reviews !

The garden is absolutely gorgeous. The space is fully utilized and meticulously maintained. There is SO MUCH to see here making the admission cost ($25) worth every cent to keep this place around for generations to come. Ample parking; easy in and easy out. Recommend getting the free garden map to help navigate the vast space and not miss any of the different areas. I particularly loved the Asian and Brazilian gardens. There are plenty of spots to rest in and out of the shade. Plan to spend at least 2-3 hours to meander. There are water fountains all around the gardens for humans and pups! Dog walking is allowed only at top of the day. I was shocked how many people were here compared to the many other botanical gardens I’ve been to, so don’t expect to share this space alone. The paths are paved mostly, some short gravel paths like through the succulent garden, other areas are easy walking grass, and a narrow wooden boardwalk near the ghost orchids.

Had a fantastic time. Perfect way to enjoy beautiful surroundings in the toasty Florida sun. Very nicely laid out and easy to navigate. Had a combination of many variety of plants, trees and flowers from many different parts of the world. Bathrooms were spotless. Amazing pond(s) with beautiful lily pads residing within. Photo ops galore. Art Gallery was a bit small, but very well done with lovely pieces of art available for purchase from private artists.

A wonderful volunteer gave me a quick run-down of the different parts of the gardens I could anticipate exploring and they spent a few minutes telling me about the history and origins of the gardens. So nice of them to take a moment to share and give my visit a warm touch.

Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area and it was nice to do something different besides the beach, shopping, and boat tours. Those things are all fine and well, but visiting the Naples Botanical Gardens made me feel like I was transported to a different place of well being.

What a beautiful place this is. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend if you are in Naples. Admission includes an hour long guided tour which was very informative and well narrated. The cafe serves a wide variety of quickly prepared food which we enjoyed outside overlooking the gardens. Everything is well manicured and carefully tended. There are many pieces of art nestled in the gardens.

Naples Botanical Garden is a beautiful gem in Southwest Florida. There are many different parts of the gardens that showcase all kinds of local flowers, trees, nature, etc. You can choose to walk the entire park or just do part of the trails. They offer a yearly membership with outstanding events throughout the year. My favorite is the night lights during December in which the gardens are beautifully lit and there is different live music all around the gardens.

We went for the Johnsonville Festival of Lights. Very beautiful to see all the plants lit up in different colors. Lots and lots of lights. The reserved time slots help to make this a very enjoyable experience. The only drawback is the price, $34.50 is little hefty for type of presentation.

I visit the Botanical Garden every time I'm in Naples. It is a gem. Visitors who are staying for several weeks can get an individual pass that allows unlimited entries and admission for one guest each visit. A full family pass allows for more free guest admissions. The cafeteria offer a variety of interesting, delicious moderately priced options and shaded outdoor seating. Soups and salads are especially good. A great place for a long walk and a chance to meet interesting people. Don't pass up the beautiful orchid collection.

This garden is beautiful and much bigger than expected! I did not think my husband and I would spend more than 30 minutes here, but we ending up spending several hours! There were so many different gardens and plants that it kept us interested. There was also a local artist featured in the event room while we were there, which was an added bonus.

We were originally going to pass on this activity because of the cost, but we are Bank of America card holders which gets us in free to select museums on the first full weekend of every month. And the Naples Botanical Garden is on their list! Highly recommend looking into Bank of America's Museum's On Us program if you are a card holder.
