The State Botanical Garden of Georgia

This place is amazing!! We went on a field trip with our school, and had a blast!! Audrey, Mads, Lucy, Stephen and Katie were so great with the kids during the Georgia Discovery Quest!! Each station had lots of age appropriate information about our state and how plants thrive!! Can't wait to come back here with the whole family!!

Late review - my family went to see Winter Wonderlights on one of the very first nights in November 2025. We had bought 4 tickets through an auction at UGA. The tickets were easy to redeem on the web site. Tripp helped me arrange for handicapped parking ahead of time and answered all of my questions as we were bringing an elderly parent with us. The Botanical Gardens are beautiful to begin with, but this was so well done, it was amazing! The staff of volunteers was great, it was easy to navigate and the refreshments were yummy - especially the hot chocolate. I highly recommend this as a good family outing - the Botanical Gardens all year and the Wonderlights during the winter holiday season.

We’ve taken our family here multiple times and all different seasons and it’s always a great day. If you have small kids, it’s a wonderful place to let them run around and play on the equipment and to also show them different trees, flowers and shrubs when they’re a little older, they have a art center.

Beautiful xmas lights!!! Great for all ages not a lot of walking

Visited here for the Christmas lights. Lovely experience! Everything was well done and loved how the garden had been transformed. We went on a cold night, plenty of warming options including hot coco and fire pit for s’mores making. We saw them take great care with handicap accessibility, even offering a private shuttle. The lights themselves took about 30 minutes to walk through and there was a cute gift shop at the end.
