Most guided tours are led by our resident Trustee, Sir Ilay Campbell, and in his absence, a guide with expert knowledge about Crarae, would accompany booked guided tours through the garden. Normally with larger groups more than 1 guide is available. This service is on offer, if guided tours are booked 4 weeks in advance. Should a later request be made, we would endeavour to to accommodate any group.
Payment is requested on arrival unless prior arrangements have been made.
Vouchers will be accepted provided this method of payment has been arranged 4 weeks prior to visit. Groups are advised to allow 1hr 30 mins duration for their visit. The Visitor Centre is open during seasonal hours from Easter to October 10am-5pm, however should any group wish to arrange tours outwith these hours, this can easily be arranged. Guide books, postcards, books, crafts, and light refreshments are available at the Visitor Centre. Situated in the visitor centre is a small exhibition about plant hunters.
