On this exclusive tour we will travel mostly by boat, discovering landscapes of quiet enchantment and sublime grandeur. The warm, humid microclimate of the Italian Lakes results in exceptional growing conditions, with much to enthuse the plantsman. Combining great botanical interest with the fascinating history of the gardensโ€™ origins, our tour will move from the Renaissance to the twentieth century through compelling and often neglected chapters of Italian garden history. The tour culminates with a visit to Orticolario, an unusual, small garden festival at Villa Erba on Lake Como.

In the evenings we will enjoy the comforts and charm of our two hotels, the Grand Hotel des Iles Borromees and the Palace Hotel, both located at the waterโ€™s edge offering fine cuisine and impeccable service.

Featured in the recent October 29th publication, this exclusive journey celebrates Tuscany's most enchanting landscapes and horticultural heritage.

In this timeless corner of Tuscany, the gardens seem to rise from the very landscape โ€“ structured yet soulful, rich in history yet bright with life. Together, weโ€™ll explore Renaissance masterpieces and early 20th-century treasures, from cypress-lined avenues to fragrant lemon terraces, all timed perfectly to coincide with the flowering of the Iris florentina, emblem of Florence and inspiration for the fleur-de-lis.

In this Emerald Isle, the further west one ventures, the more the romantic wonder of the gardens intensifies. Gardens incorporating views of rugged coastlines with overwhelming peace and beauty. Gardens with verdant groves of almost unrecognisable plants that are thriving beyond the dreams that we may hold for the same species in our own patches.

Highlights include a rare private visit to a lush island garden in Kenmare Bay, accessible only by a short boat ride, and a guided walk through the dramatic terraced gardens of Bantry House overlooking the bay. Weโ€™ll also explore the celebrated Italianate gardens of Ilnacullin on Garnish Island, designed by Harold Peto and rich with Mediterranean flair. Throughout the tour, youโ€™ll be guided by renowned plantsman and garden historian Neil Porteous, whose deep botanical knowledge and passion for Ireland's historic landscapes will enrich every visit.

Boxwood invites you to join an exclusive tour exploring the gardens of Copenhagen, Zealand and Funnen. Expert host Greg Kobett and well-known Boxwood tour leader Kirsty Fergusson will be travelling with you for the duration of the tour. Greg Kobett is a distinguished landscape architect specialising in the stewardship and creative revitalisation of historic gardens and estates across Denmark. At Gisselfeld Monastery, Greg co-restored the remarkable Paradehuset orangeryโ€”an enchanting greenhouse filled with exotic plants, softly glugging water features, and filtered daylight through skylights. His deep-rooted commitment extends to public and private estate landscapes.

During the tour we have the pleasure of visiting Tivoli Gardens where we will focus on the innovative horticultural features that bring the park to life before our first evening meal together. Other key visits include Gisselfeld Paradehuset, a remarkable late 19th Century orangery where Stig Lauritsen and Greg Kobett have overseen the restoration and filled the large glasshouse with rich displays of exotic plants; and a visit to a very private garden which only opens to one group of visitors once a year in May, though we have been offered an exclusive visit for our group only; in September.

We are excited to be returning to the beautiful Island of ๐‚๐จ๐ซ๐Ÿ๐ฎ in 2026 with long-standing Boxwood partner, Hortus. Located off the far north west coast of mainland Greece it is the most northerly of the Ionian islands and has an international reputation as one of the most beautiful of the Greek Islands.

We caught up with your expert host Christina Lambert to hear a little bit more about the Islandโ€ฆ

Corfu has become a destination for those who love gardens. Called โ€œThe Garden of the Godsโ€ by Gerald Durrell, it is unique in Greece for having a strong gardening tradition. The strategic position of the island at the entrance to the Adriatic Sea has meant that Greeks, Venetians, Byzantines, French and British have all left their mark on the island including the creation of designed gardens for enjoyment rather than for food production which is the more traditional use of gardening in Greece in general. This tradition continues today. There are a growing number of contemporary designed gardens by a variety of designers who are strongly influenced by the climate, the natural beauty of the island and the spectacular views.

Christina's full article is available in our 2026 Boxwood Tours brochure. Request yours now via the link below:
