Smithsonian Orchid & Garden Tour

Bus leaves from Maryland Hall at 8:30 am.

Join Historic Annapolis for a behind-the-scenes tour of the Smithsonian Gardens Orchid Collection. This exclusive opportunity to tour the Smithsonian’s offsite greenhouse facility, which is not open to the public, will provide a rare look at the third largest species-diverse orchid collection in the world and their ongoing conservation efforts. Following this special once-in-a-lifetime experience, we’ll travel to DC, break for lunch, and then enjoy a guided tour of the beautiful Smithsonian Gardens on the National Mall.
