We were lucky enough to visit during their Butterflies exhibit. The Butterflies were truly amazing. The garden are beautiful.

These gardens are beautiful. I have come here several times to relax and enjoy the variety of trees, plants and zen gardens. Today, we brought an elderly family member here for a visit. When I was ready to leave I returned to the gift shop to look around and over heard the young man and woman working in the shop complaining about the elderly guest we brought who had just been in the shop. Evidently her mindless chatter drove him crazy and waisted his time. When I got back to the car and saw our guest had spent a considerable amount of money the shop, helping to keep them employed, I was disappointed in the lack of compassion they showed. You would have thought they would know enough not to talk bad about park guests when other guests were in the shop. I just know, today when I left I felt like asking for a refund for my annual membership (which I had just got) because I don't feel like going back anymore.

Very pleasant and well laid out. Nice shady oasis in town. The butterfly exhibit was a highlight as well as the butterfly "nursery" where we saw two emerge from their chrysalis. So cool! Buy a Tucson Passport and get 2-for-1 admission. Good gift shop and nice café.

We gave these gardens a miss on our first two trips to Tucson, by they are wonderful. They are beautifully laid out and provide a shady oasis in the desert. There are many different gardens as well as a wonderful orchid and butterfly house which also has several frog varieties in great colors, like deep cobalt blue.And the cafe is not to be missed . It serves fresh, mostly organic food on a beautiful patio. Do not miss the fresh lime juice Popsicles.

I have been here twice. Once in 2000 and again many years later. The fauna and flora is absolutely beautiful along with the native animals. A must see if you are in the area.

It was a great botanical garden. An amazing variety of desert flora from many deserts around the globe. Well laid out. Its hard to believe that all of this fits into a few acres! Well worth the visit.

I was a bit skeptical when I was invited to visit the gardens with friends, but was most pleasantly surprised. the gardens are beautifully done, so you have no idea you are in a relatively small area.the butterfly area was a joy, and the village with the train was another surprise.Another time we shall stop for lunch in the little cafe, which has outdoor seating.

These gardens offer everything from a unique children's discovery area to an extensive butterfly house! There's a very interesting agricultural section with a native crop land area with a variety of composting ideas, live chicken "houses", ocotillo fencing, and raised beds. It's easy to follow the map given to you once you've paid the admission fee (which is reasonable) and off you go for several hours of total enjoyment!

Don't miss this oasis in the city. Easy to get to but it feels like you're miles away from everything in a cool and quiet special spot. So many styles of gardens and plantings: herb gardens, cacti and succulents, wildflowers, barrio gardens, historical gardens. Native American garden, hummingbird garden, Zen garden, moonlight, birdsong, a miniature railroad garden, even a prehistoric garden. A highlight is the tropical butterfly house with lots of colorful butterflies and orchids as well as brightly colored tropical frogs (in season). This is to name only some of the exhibits. There is also a lovely café with bargain treats like warm homemade scones served with butter and local jams and cooling drinks. Very nice gift shop too.

My wife was most impressed…..the children enjoyed it….I dropped them off and went for a drive as it didn't appeal to me. As it was Christmas time, it was extra special. Apparently, I missed out.
