Choose a garden for its character

Check the actual calendar
Check dates, hours, reservations and guided visits at the source. Being listed in a guide does not mean year-round free access. Seasonal interest does not replace practical information; keep an alternative for weather or unavailable times.
Allow for slopes and breaks
Ask about steps, gradients and paths where relevant. Gardens in the same town can require different journeys. Avoid several demanding visits in succession and choose routes that appeal to the group.
Build a day around one visit
One garden, a Menton walk and a meal can make a coherent outing. Check travel from accommodation and the return. This guide sells no package and claims no editorially tested visit.
