Reviews for The Flower Clock Tours

N
11-Day Best of France, Switzerland & Italy Tour: Paris, Rome, Alps & Italian Classics

This tour made traveling between countries very easy. I liked not having to organize transportation myself. The Colosseum area in Rome was impressive and the historical explanations from the guide were excellent. The only issue was one rainy day affected the mountain views, but of course that cannot be controlled.

Preguntas frecuentes sobre tours de The Flower Clock

Where is the Flower Clock located in Geneva, and how do I get there?

The Flower Clock is located in Jardin Anglais (English Garden), at the eastern end of Geneva’s lakeside promenade. To reach it, walk from the Plainpalais tram stop - take Tram 12, 15, or 18 to “Plainpalais,” then follow signs toward the lake. It’s a 10-minute walk. The clock is wheelchair accessible and free to visit year-round.

What time does the Flower Clock in Geneva show - is it accurate?

Yes, the Flower Clock displays accurate local Swiss time. It is mechanically synchronized with atomic time via a digital system embedded beneath the floral display. The hands are driven by an electric motor, and regular maintenance by Geneva’s Parks and Gardens Service ensures precision. Note: daylight saving time changes are adjusted automatically.

When is the best time of year to see the Flower Clock in full bloom?

The Flower Clock is replanted twice annually - in spring (mid-April to May) with tulips and pansies, and in fall (mid-October) with chrysanthemums and ornamental kale. The most vibrant displays occur May-June and October-November, depending on weather. Avoid late September and February, when replanting may leave it sparse.

Can I take photos at the Flower Clock, and are there any restrictions?

Photography is permitted at the Flower Clock at any time, and it’s especially popular at sunrise and midday for even lighting. Drones are prohibited in Geneva’s city parks without a permit. Maintain a respectful distance - stepping onto the clock bed or removing flowers is strictly forbidden and may result in fines.
