Private Youth Tours
Use our Youth Tour Request Form to request a youth tour. Keep in mind that our capacity to provide youth tours is limited. We will do our best to accommodate your request, but this is not always possible. Once we receive your tour request, the tour coordinator will contact you to discuss details.
Private guided tours are available for youth aged 3 to 13. Tours are focused on age-appropriate garden-related themes. Youth tours must be requested at least two weeks prior to the desired date.
There are three categories of Docent-led Youth Tours:
- Preschool Tours (3-6 year olds; maximum 60 minute tour; maximum 24 kids with a 1:3 adult/child ratio required)
- Elementary School Tours (6-10 year olds; maximum 60 minute tour; maximum 30 kids with a 1:5 adult/child ratio required)
- Middle School Tours (10-13 year olds; maximum 90 minute tour; maximum 30 kids with a 1:10 adult/youth ratio required)
Youth aged 14 and over should request an adult tour.
