Guided tours in the Linnaean Gardens
Throughout the summer we offer scheduled guided tours in the Linnaeus garden, Linnaeus's Hammarby and the Botanical Garden.
Once a month from October to April you can attend a guided tour of the Tropical Greenhouse (in Swedish).
Updated schedule for the regular guided tours together with opening times of the three gardens.
Booking guided tours for groups
Let our guides take you on a tour of the gardens and glasshouse, of our historic sites or Linnaeus’ homes and gardens.
Booked tours take about one hour and are always led by our own guides. Groups larger than 10 people must book a guide in advance. For the best quality of experience, groups should be 25 people or less.
All groups larger than 10 people have to book their visits in advance.
