Group Tours

If you are looking to provide a memorable experience for your special group, be sure to schedule a revitalizing tour at Greenwood Gardens, where nature, beauty, and history beckon. This one-hour docent-led guided walking tour for ten or more highlights the history, landscape, and architecture of this 1920s Arts and Crafts-style garden, graced by Italianate garden terraces, stately fountains, winding moss-covered paths, iconic follies, whimsical ornaments, romantic grottoes, majestic allées of London plane and spruce trees, and interactive wildlife at the barnyard.  In 2022, Greenwood was voted “New Jersey’s Prettiest Garden” by New Jersey Family magazine.

You and your group are welcome to bring a bag lunch and eat on-site in Adelaide’s, our covered outdoor Pavilion, or to dine at one of the area’s local eateries.

Tours are available Monday – Sunday from May through November.
The fee for Garden Tours is $20 per person. Advance reservations are required.
