Free and well worth a wander around these superb gardens. Suitable for all ages and dogs allowed but should be kept on a lead. Parking is also free.

Beautiful gardens to visit and stroll around!! The path is a bit all over the place so it’s not easy to find your way around if you want to visit everywhere. Needs more signage too but it definitely had a decent range of plants!! Probably takes about an hour to walk around the whole thing

Nice place. Very good café, the best I experienced in 65 days in Australia. It,s a pity the botanical garden focus that little on local plants and mentions that little scientific names and geographic distribution of plants in the garden. Concerning that matter I am much in favor of the botanical garden of Perth that I visited the 1st of September.

Not the most lush botanic gardens, with limited features or attractions beyond a handful of dinosaur sculptures. Croc sculpture/water fountain were out of order.

A beautiful part of Darwin. Completely different here in the dry season. Lots of birds, trees and walking trails. They were setting up for a concert the next day in one area. Great place to come and sit, read a book, go for a walk or have a picnic.
