Escorted by Suzanne Gaywood MBE, RHS Chelsea Flower Show Gold Medal Winner 2011, 2012 and Designer of the ‘Grenada at Chelsea’ exhibit.
.. How better to see Granada and The Caribbean than accompanied by a local? She will take you to see many of her friends’ gardens and make you really feel at home..
This is more than a garden tour holiday. Suzanne Gaywood MBE knows and loves Grenada. She has been responsible for designing and coordinating the award winning ‘Grenada at Chelsea’ exhibit for 15 years and knows many of the gardens’ owners personally. Your Caribbean Garden Tour holiday will be filled with experiences that money cannot buy - such as breakfast in a private Caribbean garden in the company of the owner, drinks in a stunning landscaped garden and afternoon tea overlooking the Caribbean in another special garden. Our special departures give guests the chance to experience some of the glorious public and private gardens of Grenada. Orchids, anthuriums, heliconias and many more tropical plants, as well as spices, will be at their best and in full bloom.
As well as the gardens, the Caribbean tour will also give you a chance to see many parts of the island of Grenada. - rainforest covered mountains, fertile valleys and fine sandy beaches. Known as the ‘Spice Island’ for its production of spices, the island is also home to a fantastic range of tropical and subtropical exotic plants, encouraged by the perfect year round climate and rich, volcanic soil. Our itineraries include visits to places of cultural and historic interest - picturesque capital St George’s, Grenada’s chocolate factory and the River Antoine Rum Distillery.
Testimonials
"Just a note to say thank you to Individual Holidays for all that you did to make our visit to Grenada so enjoyable and memorable.
Everything went very smoothly - it was such a well organized tour that seamlessly embraced so much of interest. Our pre-tour days of relaxation at the Rex Grenadian worked a treat and Elisabeth is especially grateful that you ere able to arrange step-free
accommodation at both resorts."
