We took our dogs, walked the beautiful grounds, ate lunch & had a wonderful time! Only problem was we couldn’t see the mansion because we had dogs! Great old Florida historical site with relaxing vibes & stunning beauty for all the senses! Highly recommended.

Beautiful setting up on a hill, so expect some light uphill walking. El Retiro house tour well worth it. Cafe on grounds delightful.

Beautiful gardens! Peaceful setting with lots of different types of plants and flowers. The tower is stunning! The stone is just gorgeous. We toured El Retiro - the mansion and it was cool to see the different furnishings, appliances and decor.The cafe on premises has delicious food and beverage options. Everything was fresh and delicious. I would highly recommend a visit to BokTower Gardens.

We absolutely enjoyed our time at Bok Tower Gardens! The grounds are beautifully scenic, with several benches thoughtfully placed throughout, allowing visitors to rest or simply take in the serene surroundings. There are countless nooks and crannies to explore, making each visit a delightful discovery. The El Retiro Estate is definitely worth touring—the volunteers are incredibly knowledgeable about both the estate and its original owner, Mr. Charles Buck. For the best experience, bring a blanket to relax on the Great Lawn near the Tower and enjoy the live carillon concerts at 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m.. From the entrance gate to the visitor center desk, the staff was welcoming and well-informed, enhancing our visit. Also, be sure to take a moment to watch the 8-minute video in the theater behind the visitor center—it provides a wonderful introduction to the history and significance of Bok Tower Gardens. Highly recommended for a peaceful and enriching day!

It was a wonderful experience to watch the carillon bells being played in the outdoor viewing area on the tv then meeting the very talented gentlemen who played the music.

New to the area, Bok Towers was recommended and glad we went with friends. A perfect day to explore nature in the gardens for first timers. We were greeted by a flowing Japanese lantern plant, and we all fell in love with the lantern flowers. We enjoyed the area around the Tower and took lots of pictures. Highly recommend the cafe to eat. Great food choices, delicious, and met the needs of our gluten free friend. Going to return as we didn't see everything because we had to leave early. Can't wait.
