26th Annual Secret Garden Tour of La Jolla

The Secret Garden Tour of La Jolla offers a rare invitation for the public to stroll behind the gates of some of La Jolla’s loveliest secluded gardens. While the garden locations remain a closely guarded secret until the day of the tour, there will be six spectacular La Jolla properties with beautiful views and unique settings that make this tour unlike any other. Each garden experience is enhanced with live musicians, plein air artists, and tabletop designs created by talented local florists and designers.

There are two ways to experience the Secret Garden Tour: Self-Guided or the popular Platinum Tour, which includes a 7th garden, catered lunch, and docent-led shuttle service to the gardens.

- Self-Guided Tour from 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.

- Platinum Tour from 9:15 a.m. - 3:30 p.m.

Returning again is The Secret Garden Boutique at Wisteria Cottage.
