- Join me on my first visit ever to Gilroy Gardens! This place was a lot bigger than I thought it would be. So many great places to explore and so many food choices!
Thanks for watching, and have a great day!

I’m so glad you finally got to visit Gilroy Gardens😊That place is very beautiful! I live in a small town nearby so I love going there. What I like most about this park is that it’s built around the pure nature that surrounds it. So it makes it that much more special❤️One of my favorite spots there is where all those waterfalls are because it’s just so calming and relaxing. They also have so many fun and quirky rides!
Oh those water falls were beautiful! It was like being somewhere in the Yosemite. It's pretty incredible what they've done with this place.
@@Eldons_ExcursionsYou will definitely have to keep going back because there are so much to do and see there. The views around there are just breathtaking.
I just caught the ending of your video! Thank you for the shout out. I appreciate it.
Wow, thank you.
Your videos rock! Keep up the great work.
No problem Dan! I can't wait for our So Cal trip! 😁
Love Gilroy Gardens! Going on Sunday for a bit. You need to visit during xmas time. Its so beautiful
Yes! Absolutely, I saw some pictures of it on their IG and maaaaan does it look gorgeous!
It's a beautiful park but, it is really only for younger kids. Because it does not have thrill rides. Used to go here a lot as a kid and loved it. A little to big for it now. Still think it's great thou.
Yeah, I totally get where you're coming from. Needs something for the older crowd, but it's okay, we have great america 😁
It is a very peaceful park non the less. Kinda like a date night park as well.
I used to work in merch selling stuffed animals. Definitely not the beat place to work but lots of memories working at night, chilling in the back, counting the cash and the holiday events
@Luke-kh7gc I imagine visiting would be better lol glad I can kinda take you down memory lane 😁
Let’s go back in the fall (if opened)
Absolutely!
Oh my goodness. I haven’t been there since it was called Bonfante Gardens lol. I almost forgot how beautiful that park was with all the trees surrounding it. And speaking of the garlic festival.. I heard it’s actually going to be here in my little town Los Banos this year. I’m looking forward to that because I’ve never actually been to the garlic festival when it was in Gilroy. Even though Gilroy is only 40 minutes away from me lol 😁 Thanks for sharing another great video!
Yeah! It's beautiful!
I might go to the garlic festival this year. We'll see how my schedule looks.
Awesome. Hopefully I’ll see you there😀
@stefaniecrowder1305 hey, maybe! 😁
I’m so excited that they’re bringing The California Garlic Festival in our little town😊 August 30th- September 1st!
Yeah I can’t wait. It’s gonna be fun!
they should do garlic string lights over the garlic tea cups!🧄
Yeaaaaah! That'd be cool
Never did these parks... growing up in So Cal.... just really Knotts, Disney or six flags were the options... love the content Eldon.. keep it up. Hope you make it down to Knotts
Well we're about to have fun in So Cal! 😁
Headed to GG in a few days for the first time and your video helped me get the lay of the land. Can’t wait to experience it in person. Looks like a beautiful fun place to go.
@moni.aceituno hey! Glad I can help 😊 it's a beautiful park! And really good food.
2:55 I lost a tooth on the spinning garlic ride when I was 7. My dad turned the spinning wheel too fast and I face planted into the seat next to me 😂😂
Haha oh no! That's crazy. Now, this park will always have that special memory 😅
Once great American close I hop they will get there rides from there
glad you bought the membership ~ what a lovely way to spend a day! Blessings!🌻
Absolutely!
I’ve never been there before, but I’ve heard that it would take me about one day and two hours to get there
@@doodlebopsftw3150 If you take the drive, I'd hit this park up and Great America and Discovery kingdom. All pretty decent parks in Northern California.
@@Eldons_Excursions guess it’s different for everyone
@@doodlebopsftw3150 yeah, I totally agree
Gilroy California, the best smelling city in the world depending on the time of year you are there. The garlic make is smell like an Italian restaurant.
I couldn't agree with you more. The city is VERY nice.
Oh my goodness I love plants and flowers. I’m going to have to go here. Thank you for sharing this!! Its is beautiful there. 😊💐
Glad you liked it! Yes, you gotta return soon. The park is very beautiful!
@@Eldons_Excursions something to do this summer for sure
@@CCcastro336 absolutely!
Thanks for sharing
@@doremi415 no problem 😊
I think our Great America passes still get us in there for free.
No way.... I didn't think to ask because I didn't see it advertised. Dang...
@@Eldons_ExcursionsYep. That's what I heard
@@adventuresinsplashmountain6 well crap... lol
Oh, great Water Blaster Master, please show mercy.
You and your water cannons.🤣
Ah man. This video brings back so many memories when we use to bring both of our daughters there when they were small. We probably went there about a dozen times and rode all the rides when the kids got older. Looks like everything is still the same since the last time we been there (mid 2000's). Thank you so much for bringing back great memories. Now that my daughters are young adults, we're gonna have to make a trip out there soon just to relive the memories.
Hey, not a problem! I'm glad I can bring you back. Yes, you are way over due for a visit!
I used to perform at the Gilroy Garlic Festival.
No way, that's awesome!
The coaster in the back was pretty good my kids got scared lol
Okay, I gotta ride it next time for sure
@@Eldons_Excursions the small water park is pretty fun, on hot days, and I don't know if they do it anymore but they used to grill delicious chicken near that area, you can smell it all the way from the train. Okay there's also a slamming bbq joint "bbq 152" near there when you get outside the park, I've tried everything there all the food is great, and there's a modest but clean chuck e cheese for the kids very near there as well
14:22 That was my favorite as a little kid! That thing brings back memories! This whole park does! Man I need to get back in. I haven't been inside since 2016. And its 2024 now!
Haha yeah! That is bananas!! You are way over due for a visit my man.
Sad you skipped over the water park. But the main park looks cool! Ty for showing.
Yeaaaah, there were way too many kids in there lol so I recorded it from a far.
@@Eldons_Excursionsthat’s so considerate of you👌🏼
It’s a People Mover! 😂😂
Haha yeah!! That's what that is!!
Doesn't your great america season pass get you in free there ?
I didn't think to ask when I got there 🙃 I was too excited to get in lol oh well... 😅
It's a nice park if you have kids. Not on the level of other parks though.
Can you please tell me what other parks?
Maybe not at extreme at Great america or Six flags, but it's nice in its own unique way. Very settle and calming.
Do they have day passes?
Yeah, 65$
