Ever wonder what lies behind the hedges of The Beach's most beautiful homes? 'Through the Garden Gate' is your chance to find out. This tour invites you to explore 12 private residential gardens in one of Toronto's most charming neighbourhoods.

What to Expect This isn't just a walk in the park. Toronto Master Gardeners will be stationed at each garden stop to answer your specific questions about plant care and garden design. To make the day easy, there are complimentary shuttle buses that run along the route, though the area is also incredibly walkable and scenic.

Make a Day of It Your ticket includes a wildflower seed paper wristband—which you can plant later—and a self-guided map. The tour also features pop-up live music and connects with the local businesses in Kingston Road Village. It’s a wonderful way to support the Toronto Botanical Garden while enjoying a relaxing day in the east end. Whether you go solo or with friends, it's a great excuse to explore the tree-lined streets of The Beach.
