C	Cecilia Bonde on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This place was on my bucket list and I'm not disappointed! Truly a magical place. A beautiful sculpture garden by the great artist Niki de Saint phalle. There was a entrance fee around 10€, they have student and people-over-65 discount. Many great sculptures in the garden which some of them you can enter, like the one Niki lived in when she build the park. There was a bit crowded with a lot of kids running around but if you're lucky you'll get some time of your own in the sculptures. By the exit they had a small shop you could by the niki-tarot, t-shirts, books, plates and so. No restaurants nearby but a small ice-cream shop on the parking lot.
V	Valentina D'Angelo on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A very surprising place! I did not expect any similar! I thought it was just another garden between thousands but it is not like this! It is instead a Wonderful place and well organized, with just a bar at the parking and a small souvenirs shop at the exit. If you are lucky, you could have a guide included on the price of the ticket, if you go to visit the "garden" on Friday afternoon. It would be so much funniest if you take a round through the "tarocchi sculpture" by your own before to have the explication of the guide! If you are in holiday or travelling around the south of tuscany, well, you must not loose it!
S	Sarah Barry on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Niki de Saint Phalle's Tarot Garden is absolutely magic! As a professional tarot reader, this felt like a pilgrimage for me, but I would think that anyone with an interest in sculpture and colour and over-the-top creativity would love it. The price is very reasonable considering the fabulousness of the place and the obvious care in maintaining the garden. The staff were so friendly - I felt very welcome there. I enjoyed it so much I spent at least 3 hours there, and then I went back the following day and spent another 3 hours! I highly recommend going there, and do take your time if possible - soak it all up as much as you can. There are so many nooks & crannies and little details. If you can, learn about the story of the garden as well and how it was built so that you can fully appreciate what an extraordinary place this is. I am so grateful that I got to go, and I hope to return again one day.
E	Eleonora P on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This garden opens only in summer, the ticket price is around 10 euro and it is better go there with comfortable shoes. It is a perfect mix of nature and architecture. Many Italians don’t know this wonderful place.
R	Rasper Eva on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ First of all, even if you stand at the desk at the entrance, you are forced to purchase a ticket online...with your mobile device. Really dumb! Staff VERY unfriendly! Secondly, I find 13€ quite overpriced, especially in regard to the fact that all but one accessible figures are closed. It takes about 30min to see it all. It is beautiful, yes. But in the end we felt quite scammed
D	Davide Pettenuzzo on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Incredible garden with so many beautiful details to watch. I would suggest spending at least 2 hours to admire all the creations. definitely dreamlike.
E	Emanuele Tommasino on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Oniric experience. Well kept and friendly service. It is worth the money.
V	Vins Prencipe on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great park in the middle of Tuscany's countryside! It's very bizarre to find such big sculptures while walking in the park but I found it very interesting! It's good to follow the map and the description of every statue and every art piece! I would suggest to avoid the hottest hours of the day as it's almost all under the sun!
