Item Description

Join Garden Director Tobias Koehler for an exclusive private tour for up to 6 exploring Allerton and McBryde Gardens, ending at Phoenix House for botanical-themed cocktails.

Enjoy the greatest sites and stories of both Allerton Garden and McBryde Garden and experience a tropical refuge where people and plants are inseparable. Wind past waterfalls, stroll through art, garden, and history. Make a unique connection to this amazing place with close friends.

Perched on the cliffs above Diana Fountain, with unmatched views of the valley below, sits the Phoenix House. A French-style structure that survived hurricane Iniki, it was originally built to house 19 Venetian cabinets (the originals of which were later donated to the Honolulu Art Academy), and once boasted a 4-foot Phoenix on the roof. The absence of details adds a layer of mystery that guests come to understand once they've visited.

Approximately 4 hours
Physical ability to hike steep trails
Mutually agreed dates with Director Tobias Koehler
21+ for cocktails


Expires September 30, 2025
