Your journey begins as you drive through Grand Anse and pass the picturesque St George’s harbor on your way to the first stop, Palm Tree Gardens which as its name suggests has a wide variety of palms!  Our next stop is  Laura Herb & Spice Garden where exotic vanilla  orchid vines grow profusely and you will see a variety of spice trees and medicinal herbs. 
 
 Continuing along Morne Jaloux Ridge with its historic forts, you will stop at Smithy’s Garden located just a mile from the historic Fort Frederick (1779-1791).   This Garden is noted for its wild feel and has an extensive collection of orchids, fruit trees, flowering plants and vines.   Here, you will engage for refreshments and a friendly chat with you host Anne and head gardeners Edwin and Michael and learn about the island’s achievements at the prestigious Chelsea Flower Show in England. Perfect for nature lovers!  Keep an eye out for hummingbirds and the Ani who together with several other species have made the garden their home.

If you’re a nature lover then look no further, this is the tour for you!
