Kew Gardens

Visited during bank holiday! Perfect weather! Blazing hot sun but that’s fine as there’s loads of places to find and hitch under shade. The park is well kept and looks fantastic. We must’ve walked around for 5-6 hours. The park is really amazing. I took a trolley with me loaded with blankets and food and stuff which was great as there’s no restrictions on that. The family and kids loved the day out here definitely will be back for Christmas lights!

We visited here for the first time ever last weekend, despite our Daughter living in London. We bought tickets online so that upon arrival they were promptly scanned, no queue whatsoever. Where do I start, the gardens are stunning and the place is so vast. We walked around the perimeter path to start, then we walked everywhere, the large glass houses and conservatories are amazing, there is so much to see. Amenities are great, lots of choices for food, we ate at a Orangery restaurant in the grounds under the grape vines (al fresco dining) the food was amazing, where a main with drinks was only £66 for 3 adults. These gardens are predominantly wheelchair accessible too. We thoroughly enjoyed the Treetop Walkway (which has a lift and stairs) so pushchair users were also able to go up, the views were fantastic. The day was warm, so there were families enjoying picnics in the relaxing grounds. Prepare to sieve a whole day, and for the entrance fee considering this is London, we found the prices to be very reasonable indeed. There is just so much for the whole family. Facilities are extremely good too, with accessible toilets, changing places toilet, baby feeding room, baby change, shop, cafe, information, and water fountains throughout the gardens, there is also a prayer/reflections room, and finally a bus stop. Visiting is a must.

We've been wanting to visit for a while. We arrived at 9.40 for 10.00 open time. Not too busy at this time. We thought it would be a good 3 -4 hours. How wrong we were. We were there for 10 hours and we still didn't get to see everything. What an absolutely amazing place! Plants, flowers and exhibitions all over the park. Things to do for everyone adults and children. The Palm House is totally breathtaking. The pond lily house is stunning. It has a lovely little land train that takes you on a circuit around the grounds, definitely worth the cost of £6.50 an adult. Some great places to stop and eat, and lots of seating if you want to take you're own food. I think you really need 2 days to get the best out of it. We are definitely going to visit again, I think you need to do Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter seasons. If you want the best, Spring and Summer are better.

I’ve been meaning to come here for years and I’m so glad I finally did. Absolutely stunning. I only spent an hour here but could have easily spent a whole day if I didn’t have somewhere I needed to be. Would highly recommend the Marianne North gallery as well it’s a real hidden gem (you’re not allowed to take photos in there so you won’t find any in my review but it’s definitely worth a visit if you have any interest in art and botanical history).

I absolutely loved our visit to Kew Gardens. It’s beautifully maintained and there is so much to see. We bought tickets online on the way to the park and were scanned in upon entry. There are multiple options for food and souvenirs, and the park is incredibly accessible. I could have spent so much longer. Only down side is the greenhouses get even hotter than usual on a hot summer day - so glad we came for opening!
