- About this activity: A date at the Melbourne Botanical Garden offers a chance to explore the natural beauty of the city. The garden boasts 38 hectares of perfectly manicured lawns, rare and exotic plants, stunning flower displays, and serene lakes. The garden is a perfect setting for a romantic picnic, long walks or bike rides, and even guided tours. There are different gardens and collections to explore, including the cactus garden, fern gully, the rose garden, and the Australian rainforest walk. The price range for entry is free of charge, except for special exhibitions, which cost around AUD 20. The Melbourne Botanical Garden is a perfect idea for a first date because of its relaxed and natural atmosphere, which encourages conversation, and the opportunity to share in the beauty of nature.
