INNOVATIVE INTERNATIONAL TOURS FOR LOVERS OF GARDENS, FOOD & WINE

Gourmet Garden Tours features the finest of gardens and the most tantalizing tastes at a leisurely pace. Tour numbers on all our Gourmet Garden Tours are limited to 30 guests maximum; 15 for Italy. In 2009 we have organised three Gourmet Garden Tours - two for Autumn and one for Spring.

Interesting and varied itineraries, carefully researched and chosen by us, take you to beautiful and sometimes unusual places not available to larger tour operators. Our personal relationship with venue owners ensures we accommodate your specific interests and needs.

A leisurely pace and civilized hours usually enables at least two nights in each area with departure and arrival at convenient hours. There's plenty of leisure and shopping time.

Our personal care & attention results in us planning and leading every tour, on which we are available 24 hours a day.

Pre-tour gatherings are an integral part of each tour, providing a fun opportunity to meet with fellow travelers.

There are no hidden costs. All inclusions are shown clearly in our brochures. Just bring your camera to capture special moments and beautiful sights.

GOURMET GARDEN TOURS are personally researched and accompanied by horticulturalist and garden designer Anne Thomson, and international tour manager and tour guide Susannah Smith. Gourmet Garden Tours present the beauty of the garden and the pleasures of the table, worldwide.

Annie Thomson is one of Sydney's most popular garden designers. Her bubbly personality and ability to express her ideas has led to a weekly garden column and many radio interviews.

Susannah Smith is an experienced tour guide and tour manager - a Sydneysider who grew up with a passion for eclectic gardens. Both Susannah and Annie are former teachers.

Annie's plant and design knowledge gives a professional insight as well as great ideas to carry home. Susannah's touring experience ensures that the tour runs smoothly and easily. Although they are based in Sydney Australia, their Gourmet Garden Tours are international.
