  Nice garden to spend an hour. A bit expensive for what it offers.

  Highly recommend to go an visit the garden of Eden. Whether you wanna see some exotic geckos or plants, definitely worth going. There is also a super old and large Baobab tree located in this garden.

  Very lovely and unique place! Loved the variety and presentation of the jardin with the different themed areas. Great way to spend a few hours in St Gilles. Unless you are a super keen botanist or nature lover, I don't think anyone would spend more than an hour of visiting. Went after the cyclone and got a discounted price of 6 euros. I'd say 8 euros of a normal price is a bit steep. Especially considering the duration of stay (as already mentioned) and that there is no guide and very few signs. Would be great to have a guide pamphlet in English. Also would be great to have some 'Did you know?' kind of signs around the park with interesting facts about the plants. All in all, the Jardin d'Eden has been around a while and it has likely seen better days. It could do well to lower the price slightly (e.g. 5 euros) and/or offer short guided tours and/or some small activity (e.g. how the Maison du Coco does). Nonetheless, I'd say it is a key stop in St Gilles, particularly families and older couples.

  Cosy little garden with many plants and trees, very well preserved and layed out. Found it a bit expensive for the size, but still we enjoyed our walk
