Best during early hours of the day in early summer after all of the flowers have bloomed. Bring bread to feed the various fowl.

Fantastic trip just outside London proper. Not only the gardens but the small town of Kew is well worth the trip via the Tube. If you love gardening and want to see a typical English town this is the place for you.
