Heart of the Garden Tour and Lunch Buffet
Explore the Central Garden closest to the Robins Visitor Center. Enjoy the Conservatory displays, the Sunken Garden, Healing Garden, and Four Seasons Garden. Visit the current exhibit in the Gallery space of the Education and Library complex. All paths are flat and ramps are available. Benches and restrooms are conveniently located.
Garden Guides can pace the visit to suit your group. Abundant displays from orchids to artwork make this a rewarding visit without extensive walking. Groups are free to visit the rest of the garden at their own pace after the tour. Most paths are paved and benches are widely distributed. Direction for Lewis Ginter here. 
The tour will last approximately and hour to an hour and a half. We will return to the visitors center to enjoy the Savory Lunch Buffet. The buffet is a choice of two salads; grilled chicken with fresh steamed vegetables; pasta or potato salad; bread; dessert; iced tea and coffee.
