Top Botanical Gardens in Florida

I recommend visiting in the morning, around 9 AM, when it's cooler and less crowded. You’ll get amazing pics without too many people photobombing!

Bring some water and snacks. There aren't many options nearby, and it can get hot! I burned a bit of time looking for a vending machine.

I recommend downloading the Fairchild app before you go. It has a self-guided tour you can take, and trust me, you’ll want to skip the pricier guided tour. I found some hidden gems this way!

I suggest getting there by 9 AM when it opens... It’s way cooler, and you beat most of the crowds, plus you get to see the flowers all fresh and vibrant... Really beautiful in the morning light!

My advice is to visit on a weekday if you can. The weekends can get super crowded, and I found it hard to take good photos with all the people around. Weekdays are definitely more peaceful!
