California Garden Tours
California's gardens range from redwood forests and windswept coastal collections in the north to the woodland hillsides of Sonoma Valley and the world-spanning collections of Golden Gate Park. These self-guided tours group the state's best garden destinations into three flexible trips, each combining public gardens with scenic stops, places to eat, and time to wander at your own pace.
