Garden Experience

Preparing for Your Visit

  • The Gardens encompass approximately 50 acres. While the duration of your visit can vary, we recommend you allow at least one hour. No admission is allowed after 3:00 pm, and the parking lot gate closes at 4:00 pm.
  • Admissions & restrooms are in the Andrews Visitor and Education Center at the end of the drive. Free parking is provided. RVs should use the parking lot left of the circular drive.
  • The Visitor’s Guide is designed for a self-guided tour. Most of the garden is ADA-accessible with either brick or crushed stone paths. There are a few areas with grass or mulched pathways.
  • Dress appropriately for Savannah’s warm, humid temperatures. Light-colored clothing and comfortable, closed-toed walking shoes are recommended.
  • An umbrella can serve double-duty: shade in the full sun areas and protection from frequent afternoon pop-up rain events.If you’re prone to sunburn or attract mosquitos, don’t forget sunscreen or insect repellent.
  • Water dispensers are available to fill your reusable water containers. Bottled water and sodas are available for purchase in the gift shop. No snacks are available for purchase.
  • Picnics are allowed in the designated area. Please take your trash with you or place trash in the designated receptacles.
  • The garden has ample benches along the paths and shaded areas to rest and enjoy the views.
