The Garden is a great place for self-guided learning whether you are a nursery, school, college or university group.
To book your visit, please complete our Booking Form.
Bookings for self-guided access or art permits must be arranged at least two weeks in advance of the visit.
All self-guided groups are asked to adhere to the Code of Conduct which will be sent to you on confirmation of your booking. Unfortunately, we cannot offer an indoor lunch space to self-guided groups.
There is also a useful map available for schools to collect at the entrance when signing in to let us know you've arrived at the Garden. Please note that due to the ongoing enabling works for the Edinburgh Biomes, some areas of the Garden may not be accessible.
Self-guided activities to use on the day or back in the classroom can be found on our online learning page.
If you have any queries please get in touch via schools@rbge.org.uk
