The Gardens were very good even though many of the outside
flowers were dead due to the time of year of our visit. We would
like to visit the Gardens again during the Spring or Summer.

So much variety, a wonderful experience for people loving nature. We enjoyed so much. Even the weather was fine.

Ample parking
I use a walker and could navigate easily
Lots of plants to see. Both of my daughters had an app on their phones to identify plants
Wished we could get in the orchid house

The café is great! Tasty croissants, coffees and aguas frescas! It was a perfect Autumn day at a perfect place!

Not insanely crowded and very clean. Part of it might have to do with the weather but my wife fell inove with the place. Well done!

It is a perfect way to spend a weekend, and easily half a day worth of exploration. Super well-maintained botanical gardens with a lot of interesting areas, and the food is excellent at the restaurants!

The gardens were beautiful. So much diversity and I loved all the tucked away spots to sit and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature.

Have plenty of time to stroll and look . It’s beautiful and takes time to take it all in. You can’t rush it att all

This place can change hours daily. I tried to go three different times while staying in Denver for my birthday trip from Chicago, and unfortunately was never able to go in. I’m very disappointed with the experience especially because I couldn’t get a refund. It put a real damper on my birthday plans!

When I checked in a person had trouble finding my ticket. She said I might have come in the wrong entrance although I wasn't aware there was more than one. The issue got resolved.

This was very nicely made garden with water bodies and various sections. People bring in books to read as well.

So lovely. My partner and I went on an overcast, chilly day and it was still a wonderful time. There are so many paths to meander, and there were constantly bird calls all around us. I also love how much water there is on the property. Felt like it was worth my money, and I’d certainly recommend to a friend.

We have been to many botanical gardens all over the world, this is by far one of the nicest we have seen.
Beautiful, with a lot of variety. You would never know you were in the middle of a city. Highly recommend.

Seeing all the beautiful fountains and laying on the grassy hill, the stunning works of art and being immersed in the flowers around me.

It was a great walk throughout the gardens. My Cousin and I went to see the beautiful gardens and enjoy the quiet atmosphere where we could talk. We stopped and ate a sandwich while on our walk and really enjoyed it.
Michael_K, Aug 2023
A wonderful experience. There are gardens and exhibits from around the world. Everything is labeled clearly.
Phyllis_C, May 2023
I love the Denver Botanic Gardens! May is one of the best times to go; however, I have enjoyed my visits at all times of the year. This time of year, the tulips are in bloom. I enjoy the wide variety of trees and plants. My friends and I visited the orangeries (green houses). Also, the gift shop has many beautiful things at a wide range of prices. There are several places to eat, or you can bring a lunch. This is a great place; you will enjoy it!
