Sponsored by the Houston Pond Society and the Lone Star Koi Club, this annual self-guided tour offers an opportunity to look at beautiful scenery and fish. Guests will hear from owners about how they achieved their backyard paradise, what they did right and, more importantly, what they did wrong and what they would do differently.

The tour includes everything from small garden ponds and patio fountains to huge multi-pond landscapes.

Tickets are good for both days and may be purchased at any of the ponds on the tour on the day that they are open, or advanced tickets may be purchased at Nelson Water Gardens beginning April 5. Click here for a list of featured locations.
