This year’s self-guided Secret Garden Tour is happening over two days and includes seven unique gardens located within walking distance of one another in the North Grove, making it easy for you to walk, bike, or scooter. We planned it this way because parking on Coconut Grove streets is very limited.
Tour Tickets Must Be Purchased In Advance
