For entry after 4pm, any day. Book in advance online

Looking to branch out? Then, we have a fern-tastic deal for you…

Kew Gardens is running a promotion where you can get £8.75 tickets if you visit after 4pm. The offer's valid all day, every day (including weekends) until Tuesday 1 September.

From Wednesday 2 September until Wednesday 30 September, afternoon tickets will cost £10. Ticket prices have been reduced by just over £1 as part of the UK government’s temporary VAT reduction on attractions – see what other attractions have passed on the discount.

On weekdays Kew Gardens is open until 7pm, and until 8pm on weekends and the August bank holiday, with last entry allowed one hour before close.

You can get £8.75 tickets for adults, students and young people – except for four to 15-year-olds – entry for them costs £1.75 with this deal.

How do I book? Go to the Kew Gardens website, select 'book tickets', then 'adult after 4pm'.

How good is this deal? This is a decent saving, as the cheapest price we spotted for full-day tickets is £21.85 from Kew’s official website.

While you’ll only get up to four hours at Kew Gardens with your afternoon ticket (and some attractions such as the Great Pagoda are closed after 4pm), you could visit two times for the price of one full-day ticket and still have change.

Young people aged between 16 to 29 can get £10 tickets year-round outside of this promotion.

What’s at Kew Gardens? Spread across 320 acres, there’s certainly a lot of ground to cover. Some highlights include its greenhouses, such as the Princess of Wales Conservatory and Palm House. Other attractions include the Rose Garden, Davies Alpine House, Children’s Garden, and an almighty fern collection.

Additionally, Kew Gardens offers heavily discounted admission rates for families receiving Universal Credit. You will need to provide proof of eligibility upon arrival, but tickets start from just £1 per person.

Free protection for all shopping!

There's a little-known piece of legislation that turns any credit card into a financial self-defence superhero. 'Section 75' of the Consumer Credit Act means your plastic must protect anything you buy for more than £100 for free, so if there's a problem or the company goes bust, you can still get your money back.
And although Section 75 doesn't apply to debit cards, there is something else to fall back on if you've paid using a debit card, or used a credit card for a purchase under £100. Known as Chargeback, this is part of banks' and card companies' internal rules and not a legal requirement. Read full details of Section 75 or Chargeback, plus how to claim, in our guides.
What the * means above
If a link has an * by it, that means it is an affiliated link and therefore it helps MoneySavingExpert stay free to use, as it is tracked to us. If you go through it, it can sometimes result in a payment or benefit to the site. It's worth noting this means the third party used may be named on any credit agreements.
You shouldn’t notice any difference and the link will never negatively impact the product. Plus the editorial line (the things we write) is NEVER impacted by these links. We aim to look at all available products. If it isn't possible to get an affiliate link for the top deal, it is still included in exactly the same way, just with a non-paying link.
