TOUR GUIDES
Each year, Kubota Garden Foundation offers tours to garden clubs, senior groups, school groups, public drop-ins, and the occasional bachelorette party! All groups are interested in the unique history of the garden and Kubota family, but some groups have other interests or needs. The tour guides work with each group to help them have the fullest experience. KGF tour guides hosted 1,000+ people this year on 55 tours.

Responsibilities Conduct tours of approximately 1 ½ to 2 hour duration for small groups of visitors. Groups usually have between 5 and 20 participants and can include children and adults. Tours scheduled for groups are quite diverse and may be garden clubs, senior groups or school children.
