The Dallas Arboretum & Botanic Garden Review

This place is definitely worth going to if you've got the time. You could probably see most of it in 2 to 3 hours. If I had to choose between this or the fort Worth arboretum, I would definitely go with the one in fort Worth. Seems to be more personal and a larger variety. Also has koi ponds and seems to have more variety of flowers. This is great if you've got a big family and also has fantastic views of the skyline in the lake. Seems like this is a great place for people who like to take pictures for events. If I was on a time crunch and I had to choose between this and fort Worth, I would probably go with the fort Worth. But that's just my opinion

Must go if you love to be outdoor, just be present and enjoy the beautiful atmosphere. Booked our tickets online as well as the parking ticket, very smooth process. No contact they just need to scan the barcode on your reservation. All the staff are very nice and helpful. We enjoyed walking around.

Gone here throughout the years and it's always different and amazing every time. The children's garden is a must if you have kids (costs extra). There is so much to do, look at and learn with many hands on activities. There is a large open grassy area by white rock lake where you can picnic and sometimes there is live music. Masks are required unless eating. Flowers are gorgeous too.

Absolutely beautiful gardens with so much horticulture from different parts of the world. The landscaping is very well taken care of and the many water features are clean. The koi fish pond is super cool to see. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly. The area was so much bigger than we expected and definitely worth the entrance fee that no doubt goes to keeping up with the garden's maintenance. We were also lucky enough to visit during the BEAUTIFUL Zimbabwe sculpture exhibit that had pieces throughout the garden as well as a marketplace tent set up where you can purchase many different pieces. If we lived in the area we would definitely go again. As it is, it's a must for anyone to go see!

We loved our trip to this garden! It's beautiful, and very unique place to visit in Dallas Texas! We spent hours and not get bored. Every area will help you capture the best of nature! The staff on the entrance and elsewhere too had masks on, which was very good! Would love to visit again! Lots party, if you can t walk long distance still you can go with blankets/ mat and stay for beautiful scenery in spring.

This is possibly the prettiest garden in Texas. The seasonal festivals are always beautiful and there's even a dedicated major section specifically for kids. Try to visit during the October fall festival, or late March blossoming season. That's when you'll get the most color around the garden. This makes a wonderful wedding venue if you're looking for ideas.

A beautiful place to walk in nature and be present. Went here on a date, ready to walk around and enjoy talking but not up for a full hike. The water features meant the air was crisp and light even on the warmer spring day. There is a team service for those who aren't up for walking so far, but I do recommend wheelchairs for those with mobility limitations.

We went to their high tea service, and they were sweet enough to surprise us with a window seat with a view of the beautiful gardens. The berry soup was delicious, as we're the sandwiches and bite-size desserts. Enjoyed all the tea flavors and feeling very fancy and doted on. Staff were beyond polite and professional, and guided us through the service with a deep, welcoming respect.

The grounds are well kept and many flowers and trees have markers labeling them - discovered I love azaleas!

Great spot to spend a day and enjoy the outdoors in a beautiful atmosphere. Spring is in full bloom and the place was just packed with tons and tons of colorful Spring flowers. There were tons of weddings here today as well as other events. They also have live music today which is cool. Anyway I would definitely recommend anyone visiting Dallas to check this place out! It s definitely worth a visit!
