EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival Special Events and Tours

Several garden tours have been offered for previous Festivals. In 2022, we enjoyed a complimentary self-guided tour in the English Tea Garden Presented by Twinings® in the United Kingdom Pavilion.

Guests could simply visit The Tea Caddy shop and ask a Cast Member for information on how to begin. When you finish your self-guided tour, return to The Tea Caddy and let a Cast Member know you’re finished.

After that, you could pick two free tea bags to take home!

Gardens of the World has also been offered in previous years, and you can find the details here for future planning.
