Welcome to our exclusive tours only
site! Here you will find unique and one of a kind garden tours…that
is what I know best and that is why I have always hosted garden
tours … of course we also add extra visits to places that are not
totally garden related … but if you are a true garden lover, you
will enjoy going through my offerings each year.
Many of you are familiar with our garden tours from our website
www.icangarden.com. When we
started in 1998, we wanted to showcase some of the most incredible
gardens in the world. We also wanted to make sure that your tour
with us was one that you would think of with fond memories after the
tour was over and you were home again. Judging by the responses we
get from those who have toured with us, our goal has been reached
and surpassed in that each tour has had excellent reviews and repeat
guests.
We started off with just tours to England and Europe and in 2008
introduced two new countries – Ecuador and China. Both filled up
quickly so that has led me to introduce other countries and their
incredible gardens.
Our tours for 2009 will include:
- We end our season with a Tropical tour to Southern China
in October. 4 & 5 Star Hotels and ALL Meals. This is our LAST
tour of 2009.
Tours for 2010 will include
- Ecuador in January when it’s cold outside – this
tropical tour not only shows you gardens but educates and
inspires. 4 Star Hotels.
- Thailand Garden Tour – Chiang Mai Flower Festival and
Cambodia - Angkor Wat February 5-17th, 2010
- India in March – Incredible India! Exquisite Gardens,
the Taj Mahal and Sumptuous 5 Star Deluxe Hotels.
- Our Third Annual China Peony Festival Tour in April -
don't miss it this time! The peonies and cherry blossoms are
exquisite.
- Our ever popular Chelsea Flower Show tour is
happening in May. One hotel and unforgettable memories.
A very special tour will take place in 2011
- Magical Morocco - Casablanca to Marrakech gardens,
markets and more PLUS cookery course and 5 Star Deluxe hotels
and ALL Meals

The tours are listed on the left hand
side of this page, just click on the ones that interest you. That
will take you to a page on it, then at the bottom of that page,
click on the SEE DETAILS and a pdf on the tour will come up. No one
else makes an itinerary like we do!
The group sizes are small and we produce a full day by day itinerary
on each of the tours and when that is printed out, the reservation
form is printed out as well so that you can fill it in and send it
off to the fax number that will be on the form.
For those of you who have not toured with us yet – Eventually is
now! - make this the year you do! We know you will find our tour
pricing very competitive and inclusive of many unique features. Our
tours change each year and include visits to gardens large and
small, private and public, famous and unknown.
