Tours and Group Programs

Free 45-minute highlight tours of the U.S. Botanic Garden Conservatory may be available on the day of your visit.  Check at the Visitor Information Desk upon your arrival. 

"Groups of 10 - 25 adults may reserve a free 45-minute guided tour of the Conservatory. These tours are usually available Monday through Friday at 10:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. and on weekends when space permits. Please make tour reservations at least four - six weeks in advance by calling (202) 225-1116. In general, due to the group-size limitations and the in-depth nature of the docent-led tours, the U.S. Botanic Garden does not offer tours for children or school groups. Please visit our Field Trip page: http://www.usbg.gov/education/schools.cfm for more information about planning a field trip to the U.S. Botanic Garden, including activities more age-appropriate and enjoyable for children and teens."
