Arboretum & NBPCA named Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Winners for 2025!
We’re absolutely thrilled to share that the National Arboretum Canberra and the National Bonsai & Penjing Collection of Australia have been named Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Award Winners for 2025! That means we’re officially in the top 10% of attractions worldwide — and it’s all thanks to YOU, our wonderful visitors.
This award is based on genuine feedback from anyone in the community who has visited and left an authentic, first-hand review on Tripadvisor over a 12-month period, making it a valuable and trustworthy designation of travellers’ favourites.
Each review, photo, and kind word shared on Tripadvisor has helped us earn this recognition, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Whether you’ve wandered through the forests, enjoyed a picnic, joined a guided walk, flown a kite, or simply soaked up the views, quality experiences for each one of our visitors is something our team, site partners, Friends of the Arboretum and valued volunteers constantly strive for.
It’s not just about being the best - it’s about being meaningful. Awards like this remind us that what we do at the Arboretum matters. They show that the experiences we help create are not only memorable, but deeply valued by so many. - Michelle, Arboretum Staff Member
“Congratulations to The National Arboretum Canberra and the National Bonsai & Penjing Collection of Australia on their recognition in Tripadvisor’s Travellers’ Choice Awards for 2025,” said Kristen Dalton, President, Tripadvisor. “Ranking among the top percentage of businesses globally means you have made such a memorable impact on your visitors that many of them took time to go online and leave a glowing review about their experience. We hope this recognition continues to drive business to you in 2025 and beyond.”
