Definitely worth it for a tour of the Kew.

Helen_H, Sep 2024
I love how this audio tour really had a lot of information and kept talking while you walked through the sites. Very useful and a great guide.

Scam

Wendy_B, Dec 2022
We were rejected. Tickets were invalid they said. Purchase at your own risk ⚠️ Such an embarrassing and shameful moment for us.

Response from Host, Dec 2022

Good afternoon, thank you for your feedback. We have reviewed the issue, and you paid for self-guided audio tours, and not for entrance tickets to the site. That is a different product provided by a different company, I’m afraid, which is indicated on the product’s page. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience with us!

Fun and Informative

Frank_P, May 2022
Thoroughly enjoyed the mature trees, and the alliums blooming in the beds in front of the palm house. Also found the Hive unique and brilliantly presented.

Response from Host, Jul 2022

We are so grateful for your 5-star review! Thanks for sharing your rating with us and the community.
