German term or phrase: Garten Kult Tour
Auf einer Tourismussite. Der Clou ist, dass sich Kult Tour mit Kultur reimt und gleichzeitig die Bedeutungen von 'Kult' und 'Tour' in sich trägt.

Die Inhalte unter dieser Überschrift handeln natürlich alle davon, was man in dieser Region an Gärten, Blumen, Wanderpfaden usw. sehen kann.

Also, wenn Euch was Gutes dazu einfällt, nur her damit.

Danke!

Just a note: I would hesitate to use anything with \"culture\" as a translation; Germans like to use Kultur for everything and anything, but in English the word culture is used more sparingly.

Garden Tour for the Cultivated


Explanation:
this plays on "cultivated" as in refined, educated and discerning, as well as "cultivation," as in planting and growing stuff.
