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.

This is an adorable urban garden run by volunteers who work hard to develop and maintain it.
It is inspirational.
A must if you like gardens.
The gardens are stunning and the incorporation of the stone and plants is just wonderful.
It also has a tea room in the old family home and a small gift shop

We had a most delightful tea at the Abkhazi Garden! The setting is absolutely stellar! Our tea, which we used as lunch, was reserved in the garden and we had a lovely table on the patio surrounded by beautiful plans. The setting could not have been more lovely or special!
The tea itself was fabulous! My companion requires a gluten free tea and it was on recommendation of TA members, that I booked here. The gluten free tea was as delicious and varied as my 'regular' one. There were so many mouth watering delicacies. We ended up taking treats with us to enjoy later.
The teas come from Silk Road Teas and include a special blend just for the gardens. This was a lovely, fragrant tea and is well worth trying.
The service was so accommodating and the setting is lovely -- either in the garden or in the main house. It is well worth a visit!

If you were thinking, this is going to be another Butchart Gardens it’s not. It is a very well preserved park in a residential area. There is a tea house for an inner city garden. It is beautiful not a lot to do around there besides this. Best time to visit spring.

SKIP THIS! We did this excursion through Royal Caribbean and it was the worst excursion we ever went on. The garden is small and going in July there was VERY LITTLE pretty flowers bloomed. The tea house was SOOOO hot (no ac) with one bathroom (for 37 people that went on the excursion) and an over priced gift shop. The tea was scalding hot that by the time it cooled down enough to drink, I was so hot that had to go outside (so I drank like 3-4 oz total). There is a difference between hot tea and 2nd degree mouth burn.
The food was okay but completely over-priced. Also, if you do the “city highlights tour” with the cruise line, be prepared to see graffiti, apartments, hear depressing stories like the town hero getting cancer, etc. Not a highlight and it was miserable experience beginning to end. (FYI, I have left amazing reviews for the other excursions we did and usually don’t complain like this on a business — but we were that miserable and hate that we wasted our money!) also be prepared for “family style” seating. We did get a table for two, but only 2 available (not romantic for the other couples who couldn’t get the private tables!)

Well worth visiting. Very pretty, well-done garden. Also worth having the Afternoon Tea. (Recommend the royal Abkhazi tea.) Easy to access by public bus in theory, though once I was on the bus it skipped the stop I needed--apparently that particular does not have the stop in its route, so ask before boarding.

Very beautiful layout of the land. An enjoyable setting with a feast for the eyes. Although we didn’t sit down for tea, it would be wonderful . The friendly volunteers told us the historic background of the place , that adds a lot to the experience. Truly amazing to see such well cultivated garden , tend by volunteers with fondness of the plants and place.

The walk (self guided) through the gardens is wonderful and full of beautiful plants of different sizes and shapes, all compressed into one acre in a residential area. The history is better laid out in the web site, but both the husband and wife were interned during WWII in quite different places and different circumstances. They had known each other before the war. They met again after thinking the other had died, and married and spent their time building their garden and their house. The house is quite revolutionary for the interior design at the time (see the dining room pictures) and being in the house is a mixture of pure domestic matters (period tiling in the bathroom), modern for the time design elements (indirect lighting in the dining room) and china from that era when they lived there. Our timing was at the end of the afternoon and we missed the opportunity to have tea and a snack there, but it's clear it would have been a lot of fun. Our snack was at the nearby DemiTasse, but that's another review.

A zen garden in Oak Bay.
Showcasing the expansive and diverse gardens with quaint walking trails the loop through the property. Very hard to believe it exists & so peaceful within the city -
In October, more green than flowering but a great hidden gem and charity to supporr as well.

We toured the garden and even my husband who was iffy about the whole thing thoroughly enjoyed it. We spent over an hour wandering while waiting for our tea reservation. That was an adequate amount of time. Then we had the afternoon tea. The sandwiches and goodies were very good. I chose this place for the tea experience because it was significantly cheaper than the Empress. And I guess one does it for the experience because I can’t quite figure out why it’s so expensive for the amount of food you get.

Peggy Abkhazi began the gardens in 1947. She came to Victoria after years interred at a Japanese camp in Shanghai. She and her husband Nicolas spent years creating a beautiful space where landscape and plants exist harmoniously on a hillside parcel near Cook Village. A place of quiet beauty, this gem is an oasis in an urban landscape and is well worth a visit.

Should we choose High or Afternoon Tea? How much difference is there?
Skrevet 14. juni 2019
I would recommend their Royal High Tea over the Afternoon Tea. Admittedly we have only tried the former, but if I look at the difference in the courses for the two offerings on their web page it seems to me that the simpler version lacks precisely those touches of refinement (such as the smoked salmon blinis with crème fraîche) that made the High Tea experience so enjoyable. Even at $50 the High Tea is par for Victoria standards; the Afternoon Tea is ten dollars cheaper but life is too short.

We are coming for a cruise excursion and it doesn’t arrive until 6:30 pm, will we be able to enjoy the garden? We booked through the cruise line but I’m worried whether it will be worth it?
Skrevet 3. juni 2018
My wife and I went on the same cruise that gets into Vancouver at 6 and leaves like around 10 o'clock. By the time you get off of the ship go somewhere and then get back, you really don't have time to get your money's worth on any of the excursions. If I had to do it over again, I would either stay on the ship or I would get of the ship and have a taxi take me downtown to goof around for a few hours. There is just not enough time to do much else. The cruise ship stops there because US law requires they do so.

I am traveling with a group of 10 family members on a cruise to Victoria. We arrive at 1:00pm and depart for Vancouver at midnight.
We would like to tour the garden and have tea.
What transportation options are available?
Skrevet 17. mars 2016
Are you coming in at the cruise ship terminal? Cruise ships dock at the Ogden Point cruise ship terminal, Its is in the southwest corner of the downtown core. Abkhazi Garden is a longer walk along the shoreline sidewalk (beautiful walk in nice weather.), I am guessing an hour walk one way. Taxi ride for 10 might cost $20 per cab. To see the entire gardens can be done in an hour.
How long are you staying in Victoria and how long do you want to be in the garden. The drive for for is not far and with my SUV I can do the trip in 2 rounds. (depends what time your boat arrives, the weather and where else you want to go.
Abkhazi Gardens, 1964 Fairfield Road, +1 250 598-8096,
Prince and Princess Abkhazi along with designer John Wade came together and created a garden that took over 40 years to come together on a beautiful property overlooking the Strait of Juan de Fuca and the Olympic Mountains.

Is there anything blooming in early May?
Skrevet 6. mars 2016
It is currently early March with cherry, lotus, magnolia trees in full bloom. Daffodils and crocuses are up, tulips will follow. By May these things will be done but the garden beds will take over. Check out Butchart Gardens website for timing of displays.

I'll be there in early May. Will there be flowers then?
Skrevet 6. mars 2016
Definately!, The flowers are already out and there will be tons more. Absolutely beautiful. You will love it.

We have a scheduled visit through a tour on September 28. However, tour has set the tea and garden visit at 5:30 pm. I am wondering whether we will actually be able to see the gardens in the evening - are their lights? Thanks.
Skrevet 11. august 2015
Hello from Victoria! I am a local tour guide. I just called Abkhazi Garden. Yes, there are ground-level lights, but - more importantly - they tell me they do not have any bookings listed for Sept. 28. Probably best to check with your tour operator. Hope this helps.
