I've never seen such a gorgeous garden in my whole life. So big that you could just stay there for hours and never get tired of everything you see. You will find a great variety of plants, flowers, trees. The colors are just amazing, the trees so tall and beautiful, and even the squirrels let you taken them pictures (if you give them food haha). Totally worth it, and if you have time, please go to the glasnevin cemetery that is just beside de garden.…

Our family were given a guided tour Of the Botanic Gardens by Charlotte last Sunday, and we ranged in age from 4 to 60. It was a really interesting tour - Charlotte was well informed, went at our pace and tailored the tour to suit our interests. She really brought the gardens to life with lots of interesting nuggets of information which you would never find out on your own. Well worth booking a tour in advance.…

Lovely for a break of green and fresh air. Such a shame the exotic glass houses have to close to the public for the time being (social distancing would be impossible). But still a lovely family trip, or even a couple's walk on a Sunday morning !

We recently found ourselves in Dublin for an afternoon and because of the Covid pandemic we wanted to avoid the shops. We decided to go to the National Botan Gardens - it was the best decision we could have made. It was very easy to be socially distancing. It was a wonderful place for a walk and hard to believe that there is no entry fee. The gardens can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Nice leisurely walks amid very well kept gardens, beautiful flower beds and lots of interesting plants, trees and shrubs. The rose garden is amazing! It is an oasis of peace quite close to the city. The fact that a river runs through it gives it a great sense of tranquility. I can see why people who live near there would visit several times a week. It is an ideal place to while away an hour or two and one of the real treasures of Dublin. I'm sure it is beautiful in every season...I'd love to see it in Autumn.…
