Sky Garden returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting from the [[Sky Tour]]. It is the second classic course in ''Mario Kart Tour'' (the first being [[GBA Sunset Wilds]]) to receive a new arrangement for its music and currently one of two GBA courses with a previous arrangement to receive a new arrangement in the game, the other being [[GBA Peach Circuit|Peach Circuit]] (and by extension, [[GBA Luigi Circuit]]). There are now two blimps; both use the appearance from [[Tour Singapore Speedway|Singapore Speedway]]. The giant beanstalks that previously only appeared in the background are now closer to the course, and one of them features a red [[Toad House]] on a cloud.

A course banner is added at the starting line, featuring the classic ''Mario Kart'' logo in a round frame supported by two beanstalks, which grow from earthenware planters. The road is also now made entirely of gray stone files, formed in an arched pattern, and features flowerpots and fences in the off-road areas. The course has been simplified, with some of the bends being removed. The first shortcut now features players performing [[Jump Boost]]s on giant leaves while the last is now under the beanstalk that supports the Toad House. The second shortcut is removed; the ramp now leads to a [[Mushroom Trampoline]] on the main route. The straightaway near the finish line is replaced with a gliding section.

The course also appears as '''Sky Garden R''' (reversed), '''Sky Garden T''' (with ramps), and '''Sky Garden R/T''' (reversed with ramps); the former two debuted alongside the normal variant in the Sky Tour, while the latter was introduced in the [[New Year's Tour (2023)|2023 New Year's Tour]]. In the T variant, there is a moving platform with a [[Dash Panel]] ramp near the final U-turn. In the R/T variant, many ramps and [[Mushroom Trampoline]]s are added throughout the course, and a blue Mushroom Trampoline is added near the end allowing racers to reach a platform only accessible in the final lap.

In the R and T variants, the mushroom trampoline is removed. In the T variant, there are several [[Piranha Plant]]s along the track as well as a moving platform with a [[Dash Panel|dash panel]] ramp. In the R/T variant, racers drive across several additional mushroom trampolines, including a blue one.
