Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

During my recent vacation to Grand Bahama Island from Toronto, I stumbled upon the Garden of the Groves, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of my trip! If you're a nature enthusiast or simply looking for a peaceful retreat, this place is an absolute gem.
One of the best parts was the guided tour. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and had a genuine passion for the flora and fauna of the island. I learned so much about the native plants and the efforts being made to preserve this natural haven.
After the tour, I took a leisurely stroll on my own, which was equally enjoyable. The garden is designed to offer plenty of quiet spots where you can sit, relax, and soak in the serene surroundings. It’s a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
Overall, the Garden of the Groves is a must-visit when in Freeport. It's a testament to the natural beauty of the Bahamas and a wonderful place to relax, learn, and connect with nature. Whether you're traveling solo, with family, or with friends, you'll find something to love here.
Tips:
Wear comfortable shoes for walking.
Bring a camera for the beautiful photo opportunities.
Allocate at least a couple of hours to fully enjoy the experience.
Check out the seasonal classes and events they offer!

Nice place, but not more than a couple of hours at the most to see it all, including lunch. There wasn't alot to see, a few turtles in a pond which was a bit dirty. A few spiders in the trees. Possibly the time of year we visited, maybe they were getting round to maintenance and cleaning.The food was good.

I love to visit gardens wherever we travel. The Butterfly Garden was beautiful. Hard to catch them on the frame long enough to get a good picture. Plenty to see and lots more f photos to take. Although you can tell that the garden was hit and effected by the storms it still help plenty if its beauty. I can imagine what it’s going to look like in the next year or so. Thank you Ms. Marilyn.

I recently visited Garden of the Grove in Freeport, Bahamas, and unfortunately, it did not live up to my expectations. While I am sure the park was probably beautiful before the past hurricanes, it is now in desperate need of some tender loving care. The current state of the park makes it hard to justify the $17 per person admission fee.
The entry fee might not seem too high, but considering the cab ride took twice as long as the time we spent in the park, it doesn't feel worth it. Our cab driver even tried to talk us out of going, mentioning that the park is no longer being maintained. This was evident as we walked through; the grounds are not being kept up, and the beauty that must have once been there is now faded.
It is truly sad because I can imagine how wonderful Garden of the Grove must have been at one time. Hopefully, they will invest in restoring the park to its former glory. Until then, I would suggest spending your time and money elsewhere.

I absolutely cannot recommend going there. I already have an unkempt garden at home. I don't need to travel to the Bahamas for that, and I certainly don't need to pay $34 to get in. It's actually outrageous. Even the signs were so shabby that you could hardly read them.

This was once a showplace - beautifully kept but a dedicated team. It has been battered by numerous hurricanes over the years, the last being in 2019. Since then there has been little or no effective management, the result being the attention to detail has been totally lost, with faded and broken signage, rotting wood bridges, broken water pumps that created waterfalls and uneven pathways that have been pushed up by the surrounding roots. This is the sort of environment that needs constant attention but there is very little obvious maintenance, the result being everything is overgrown and unkempt. The cafe is only open (for a disappointing lunch) among chipped tables that need a coat of paint. The whole place looks totally unloved which is so sad. It needs an entity like the Bahamas National Trust or a nonprofit researching and promoting Bahamian flora and fauna to rescue it. In its present state you can only expect disappointment - suggest you give it a miss.

Gardens are overgrown, trees/branches down. Pathways need raking, trip hazards everywhere. Water system is broken.

It needs so much help. Even the locals told us but you wouldn't believe it until you went. But it doesn't have lean raked out gardens. There's a lot of bare spots where they haven't replanted there's palm trees that fell over during the storms three or four years ago that have not been removed from the pathway so you can't go. No signage saying where you're going to the aqua place so you cannot see the waterfalls because of the damage and no repairs. Apparently they don't own rakes anymore so it'd be nice to someone donated some. It was very sad

I am cruising with a 1 year old and want to go to the gardens when we port. I won’t have a car seat. I’m assuming a taxi wont take us without proper child safety. A shuttle bus should. How do we find a bus going to the gardens? Is there a chance we won’t find a shuttle bus going to the gardens?
Skrevet 15. januar 2020
Hi, I doubt you will find a bus, a taxi is the best option. I also doubt that taxis will care about a child seat, so it is really up to you. I hope this helps.
Skrevet 15. januar 2020
Any updated information on the cost of a taxi from cruise terminal to Garden of the Groves? I like the idea of exploring it on our own and am not really interested in the shopping/long bus ride involved with the Carnival excursion. With that, are taxi rates typically per person or per destination?
Skrevet 9. januar 2019
Our taxi charged us per person. I believe it was $8. After you walk off the ship, you go through a bunch of shops. There's a big sign at the end if the shops on your left that says taxi. It's all efficiently run. Flat rate, no haggling. They do try to group people together into the taxi. The drive from the port to the garden was about 15 minutes. Really nice drive, almost no traffic, country roads. Our taxi driver actually asked us if we wanted him to come back and get us. He also gave us his card and told the garden employee to let us use their phone to call him if we were done earlier. We arranged for pickup for 90 minutes later. He was there promptly, and gave us a deal on the return trip. Taxi service on the island was super easy and affordable. I had no worries about missing our ship. We had plenty of time to go to Port Lucaya by taxi for a few hours and then back to the ship. We paid for the return trip when we got out at Port Lucaya and our second taxi back to the ship was free. Taxis are prompt and waiting at the taxi stands. So easy to use!

Skrevet 9. august 2018

Yes.

Mostly yes. We had a stroller, not a wheelchair...but I don't recall many obstacles. There were definitely paved paths and ramps. That said, some of the "spots" of interest in the garden weren't accessible...the chapel in particular was up sets of stairs and there wasn't any ramp nearby.

Hi Kelley!
I saw your post about traveling with small children. I'm considering the Bahamas for a short 4 day trip in April with my almost 2 year old son. Can you give me any tips on where to take him? Most "Kid" activities are for ages 3 and up!
Thx!

We will be there in February 2018 what is the admission price, what is the cab rate from the port and will the butterfly area be finish? Thanks so much
Skrevet 17. august 2017
As others have said earlier the price as stated on their website is Adults $16.50, Children (5-11) $11.00. It is worth noting that Taxi's in the Bahamas do not have meters so you will need to confirm verbally the price you will be charged by the driver before you accept the ride. I don't know what the price would be from the port to the gardens as I always hire a car from Brads at the airport, but I would guess it will be in the range $30 - $40 each way. I have seen some of the people from the cruise ships on the guided tours and they seem to be very good so I might suggest that you look into this as the all in cost would probably be cheaper than paying everything separately.

My family and I are reviewing attractions for our upcoming trip. My father has had knee surgery and many of the reviews mention difficulty with steps. I have attempted to research the garden grove but can not find any mention of amount or quantity of steps. Are the many areas that require use of steps, are they steep?
Skrevet 6. juni 2017
There are a couple of steps at the entrance, but there is also a ramp. Other than that, the paths to go up and down a little bit. I think you will be fine. And it is so lovely, you will be happy you made the trip.
