Welcome to COOPERSMITH'S, North America's oldest and most respected garden tour company.

It's no secret—-garden tours are all the rage! But while new companies spring up overnight to take advantage of this latest trend, we at COOPERSMITH'S continue doing what we have been for the past 24 years: setting the standard for high quality garden, country inn, and fine arts tours in Great Britain (England, Scotland, Wales & Ireland), Continental Europe (Belgium, Holland, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal), New Zealand, and California.

Over the years, we have expanded our repertoire to include castles, palaces, country walks, theater, and museums. Still, the overall concept of a COOPERSMITH'S tour is much the same as it was on our initial voyage in 1984: small group, select accommodations, in-depth focus, topnotch tour manager, and a relaxed pace. (See Coopersmith's Style)

Unlike other tours, with COOPERSMITH'S you'll nearly always be traveling in a motorcoach that is large enough to guarantee each passenger a window seat throughout the journey. You'll become familiar with two or three areas of one country (or two small countries), visit superb public and private gardens—plus world-class flower shows such as Chelsea Flower Show, Hampton Court Flower Show and the Floriade—stay at the finest manor houses and historic country inns, enjoy gourmet cuisine, and find each day to be a special, memorable occasion.

Come see for yourself why our tours have been featured in The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Martha Stewart Living, Garden Design, Martha Stewart Weddings, and Sunset, among others. And why so many of our clients travel with us on a yearly, or even twice-yearly basis.

I look forward to personally welcoming you on board!
