Group Tours

Adult Tours
Guided tours through Leu Gardens for groups of 10 or more people can be scheduled with a minimum of 3 weeks notice and registration with the Education Department. Please call with a selected date in mind and be prepared to let us know how many people you will be bringing on your tour date.  A $25.00 deposit fee is required to complete your registration.  Upon receipt of your deposit, you will be sent a confirmation, registration form, and map. 

Our guided tours are led by trained volunteers.  You may choose to visit only the Gardens or to also take a Leu Museum tour.  A garden tour will take about 1 ½ hrs. and a garden tour with a visit to the Leu museum will take about 2 hours.  The Leu Museum is open for tours from 10:00 am through 3:30 pm each day.  The cost per visitor for a guided tour is $ 9.00.  Bus drivers may visit Leu Gardens with our compliments.  For more information, please call the Education Department at (407) 246 – 3621.

No Garden admission after 4:00 pm.

Self-Guided Adult Group Rates

A self-guided adult group rate is available for groups of 10 or more ($2.00 off general admission per person).  Reservations are required to receive special rate.  Please call in advance.  We provide ample and convenient bus parking and the group escort and driver are admitted free as our guests.

School Tours
Our goal at Leu Gardens is to provide a fun and educational experience for school children that compliments the curriculum used regarding plants and insects. In order to meet the increasing demand among schools to include Leu Gardens in their field trip visits, we offer three types of tours for grades K-8 and a guided tour for high school students. With each tour, the teachers call and schedule a time to come to visit the Gardens. They will then be sent confirmation and registration forms, a map and a guide which includes suggestions for pre and post activities.

Tour 1 is entirely teacher led with no guides involved and is $1 for students and $5 for adults, with one free adult for every 7-10 children. Tour 2 is for smaller groups of 10-24. A guide will take the group around the Gardens, giving a general tour of the main areas. Tour 3 is a center tour for larger schools (25- 65 per day) where the teachers are asked to divide the children into small groups of no more than 15 per group. The groups then visit 3 areas of the Garden where a guide meets the group and takes them through that area. The Guides will be in each center for 1½ hours, but classes may stay in the Gardens longer and visit any other area.

Tours 2 & 3 have been set up using the science benchmarks that are used at each grade level and by using the evaluations after the tours. The fees for tours 2, 3 and high school students are $2 per students and $7 per adults with one free adult for every 7-10 students.
 

For more information, please call the Education Department at (407) 246-3621. We hope one of these tours will meet your needs, and that you will include Leu Gardens in your visit this school year.
