Spring Guided Tours

Roma Street Parkland

Spring is the perfect time to get up close and personal with Roma Street Parkland as lush lawns, new shoots and blooming bulbs turn the site into a gorgeous oasis.

Free Guided Tours are available every day of the week with expert volunteers sharing fascinating stories and revealing the inner-city haven’s hidden secrets.

There are six tours to choose from and each take about 60-90 minutes at a gentle pace:

Behind the Scenes Tour

Get a sneak peek into how Roma Street Parkland’s top horticulturalists get the place spring-ready when they show you the parts the public rarely see in this special behind-the-scenes tour.

Bush Tucker Inspired Lunch 

Explore the Rainforest and learn about the diverse range of edible fruits, roots, nuts, seeds and leaves which grow naturally in the Australian bush and have been used by Indigenous Australians for thousands of years. At the conclusion of your guided tour, enjoy a delicious Bush Tucker inspired Lunch at The Garden Room Cafe on a date TBA (postponed from Sep 3 due to weather) - 3-course lunch plus arrival drink (beer, wine or soft drink) for $90.
