Holbrook`s garden discovery tours focus on exploring a region`s biodiversity and do so with visits to public and private gardens, plant nurseries and natural areas including national parks. In addition to tours to well-mapped gardens, Holbrook leads programs to untrammeled destinations not often highlighted in international garden tours, such as Cuba, Chile and Ecuador, as well as India, New Zealand and South Africa.
Every detail of these well-rounded tours is considered. Even the lodgings are picked for the beauty and planning of their gardens.
Education, conservation and research are incorporated into Holbrook`s garden tours, which make them popular with groups from organizations such as the New York Botanical Garden, Missouri Botanical Garden and the Desert Botanical Garden. The travel programs include expert lectures on topics of regional gardening interests, visits to spectacular botanical gardens, formal gardens and ethno-medicinal gardens, investigation of plant diversity and ecosystems in national parks and so much more.
Everyone interested in plants and gardens — from members of horticultural societies and orchid societies to custom groups of master gardeners, avid gardeners and backyard gardeners — will be invigorated by the wealth of sights and information shared on these in-depth, revealing tours.
