Small but beautiful garden, the museum was great as well but the garden caught most of my attention. Definitely a great space for amazing picture along the river.

I would give 5 stars but the gardens were in bad need of maintenance and pruning. The museum itself is exceptional with breathtaking exhibits.

How long would it take to tour the whole thing?

Lena | Sep 25, 2021
Gaye Pappas | Sep 25, 2021

I would say close to two hours if you don't stop too often. Three if you read explanations and enjoy the relaxation in the gardens, which are beautiful. You'll enjoy it though. Reasonably priced and a treasure in JAX for sure. 😁

Do they allow photography in the Gardens?

Blair Martin | Sep 25, 2020

No they do not.

The website says ALL self guided tours require reservations of at least 3 weeks, however when you click to put in the reservation, it says you only have to reserve groups in advance... Which is it?

Roxy Beaudet | Apr 28, 2022
Tionna Seabrook | Apr 28, 2022

That was required but not anymore. You can just walk in now, it’s a new change but you don’t need advanced tickets.
