​Longwood Gardens Christmas Bus Trip

Wednesday, December 4    10:00 a.m. to 7:15 p.m.   (Rain or Shine)

 Departure time is 10 am from Prospector's Steakhouse, Rt. 38, Mt. Laurel, NJ.​

This holiday season, experience the magic of A Longwood Christmas as you never have before—made even more spectacular with the opening of Longwood Reimagined. From the sprawling new West Conservatory to imaginative new outdoor landscapes—you can enjoy the sights and sounds of this favorite winter tradition. Indoor and outdoor displays are infused with color and lights, thousands of seasonal plants exquisitely decorate the Conservatory, and sounds of the season resonate throughout. Arrival at the Gardens is scheduled for 12 p.m., giving plenty of time to take in all that is offered, including the after-dark light show. Visit www.longwoodgardens.org for details of the holiday displays. The trip is sponsored by the Rancocas Nature Center and includes charter bus transportation and entry ticket. Cost: $88/per person (our pricing is very competitive). Registration for this event is available on the Rancocas website at Christmas Bus Trip 
​Payment secures the registration, and all sales are final. You can also register by mailing a check to Rancocas Nature Center, 794 Rancocas Road, Westampton, NJ 08060 or by stopping at the center. Travel information will be sent to all registrants.
